I was banging the drum for Rosler not long ago, very surprised by how it's collapsed this season.

That wanker Barclay, as predictable as the sun rising: http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/patrick-barclay-arsenal-should-be-worried-by-the-tensions-at-white-hart-lane-not-tottenham-9853013.html

He's still being punished for not being the Burundi Ronaldo on the right wing against Benfica.

Fucking hell, Cliffy.

Really good piece by Luke Edwards in the Telegraph http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/newcastle-united/11221168/Newcastle-United-fans-were-right-to-call-for-Alan-Pardew-to-be-sacked-and-to-argue-otherwise-is-insulting.html

How many times have you thought Abeid should be playing?

Good piece that.

He's played a blinder.

You're looking for the credit to Pardew but no blame club. It's two doors down, just look for the saliva covered windows. Absolutely not, he's not perfect by any means, but he's also not as bad as some people like to make out. I'm always interested to know who people think would come to the club, work within the same constraints and make a better job than Pardew has done. Tuchel, De Boer, Jemez, Moyes, Koeman (would have) take your pick from any number of coaches working under far harsher financial restrictions than poor Alan. Prob wouldn't almost relegate us. Also he is as much part of the "constraints" as Ashley is. so yeah total fallacy Where do you get the idea that Tuchel/De Boer would manage Newcastle? One is a manager of Ajax, the other is a manager that can take their pick of clubs far superior to a Sports Direct advertising franchise. These people do their research before just casually signing up for a job. Another thing that I wonder of, is that you accuse Pardew of being a Mike Ashley puppet, which I agree with, but if Pardiola gets canned, surely Ashley is just going to employ another puppet/mouthpiece? Why would Ashley want someone who will come into the club and try to succeed? All he wants is you lot in the PL drifting from 8th to 17th to advertise his tat. From what I can see, Pardew is the lump, but Ashley is the tumour, and no sqwarking about who the manager is will ever change that, and I say this as a lurker who supports a true mickey mouse football club that plays non-league. He'll find it very difficult seeking out another manager who is prepared to act as a sex slave, who will do anything and say anything to keep his job. That total control is why Pardew has stayed in post, nowt to do with compensation. Ashley's whole operation hinges on the yes-men who do his bidding. Getting rid of them might very well hasten his departure if he thinks it's more trouble than it's worth. But he'll certainly never leave whilst he's got these individuals willing to drive his gravy train and bend over for him whenever he tells them to. If you support Pardew, you support Ashley. The two are inextricably linked.

This and in the Pardew thread. Pardew is on a little run of not being absolutely catastrophic so his weird fans will creap out of the woodwork to bask in our everlasting mediocrity. Weird is the word like. Can't wrap my head around such loyalty to a bloke who even insists his wins must be fucking boring.

Constraints like having Perez and Abeid bought for him without having to do any work on recruitment. The poor bastard.

The press don't even realise that the fact results have turned around is in complete contradiction to every defence of him that was going, i.e. he's getting everything possible out of these players and can't be expected to do any better without Cabaye.

I would rather of won. Can't believe anyone would advocate losing to them lot down the road mind jeez. Yet you're happy to have Pardew in charge for the next derby. Walking contradiction.

Rob Lee has said he was desperate to lose the derby in the rain to get rid of Gullit. ujpest would rather have won, had another season of him and missed out on Robson. True fan.

We won. It's the 5th time in a row we've done that. Pardew isn't going anywhere so the best thing to do is to forget him, support the players and enjoy watching a winning team. If you can't do that it may be time to look for another hobby as following NUFC clearly isn't doing it for you. I don't like Pardew either and never will (look at my avatar) but all this wanting us to lose and not celebrating when we score or win is just plain silly. It's up to anyone how they support the team, if thats how you feel that's fine but telling people to "look for another hobby" isn't fair. Wanting us to lose isn't supporting the team. In your opinion. Look up the definition of "supporter" in the dictionary then. No. Some people look for the bigger picture. Happened against Souness, is happening now. You don't want to do it. That's up to you. No one is slagging the team. People want the best for NUFC. You don't get to dictate to people what being a supporter is. So what about those who grief the players when they lose the ball? They "supporting" the team are they? Those who grief the players who lose the ball are doing so out of frustration not because they want the team they claim to support to lose the match. Surely even you can see the difference there. The manager is going nowhere so what's the point in people still wanting us to lose? Now once again look up the definition of "supporter" in the dictionary. a representation of an animal or other figure, typically one of a pair, holding up or standing beside an escutcheon.

This 100%. Anyone softening or feeling sorry for King Pardew needs to remember the damage he's doing to the club. Of course he could resign but his ego and greed won't allow that.

606 will be jam-packed with livid Arsenal and Spurs fans. Hope the presenters make sure to tell 11th placed Spurs fans that they are where they should be.

Costa's Spanish.

What's happened to that Nigerian bloke who WBA spent £10m on in the summer?

Give him credit for closing the stable door after the horse has not only bolted but been hit by a truck on the main road.

So many shit 'safe' managers it's untrue. Many of whom are obsessed with Premier League experience, meaning you end up with Anichebe up front and fucking Samaras on the bench. How ironic that Pardew has been pissing his pants for years about needing more PL experience. Graham Carr casually struts into the Segunda Liga and gives the cunt Perez, who digs him out the shit.

Can't get over how shit the league is this year. What the fuck is going on?

The bloke who completely ignored Mehdi Abeid for more than 3 years. Thick as two short planks.

Honest players. He tries to make his interviews as boring as his football.
