Wullie

Absolutely midds. Beggars belief that anyone can defend him after this summer. I don't deny that we'd be fucked without him... I think we're fucked either way after yesterday. He has known the score from day one, indeed it's the reason he got the job.

If he's been lied to that much, then walk. We all know he hasn't. This is the job he was employed to do.

If he says 100% with regards signing a striker, then we don't sign a fucking striker then of course he's a liar. Do you even know what 100% means?

Kinnear lied every time he opened his mouth and still managed to be more honest than Par-nicchio.

Don't make promises you can't keep then. Is that so difficult? I remember Chris Hughton denying knowledge of Ben Arfa even when we all knew he was on Tyneside - that is a lie told for the benefit of the supporters in case things go awry. Pardew has told lies for nearly a year to fool supporters and placate his despicable employers. He's a complete dickhead and while his bosses are a bigger problem, it will be a very happy day when this arsehole is no longer associated with NUFC.

Absolutely abhorrent that the man can spend nine months lying to the supporters and then doesn't even have the spine to come out and justify his lies on the day he said we should judge him. I judged you last December Alan and I was spot on - you're a thoroughly detestable fucking cunt.

Optimism ffs. Being happy to finish in mid table mediocrity is not fucking optimism.

Marveaux won't play more than ten league games, that's my prediction.

He'll mention Obertan as being the striker, said that when we signed him.

He's going to have to go some to be a success seeing as his own manager doesn't even fancy him.

Spot on about the cups IP.

I've been thinking straight since January. You're just about the only one who can't see it.

Don't know why anybody thinks he's incompetent. He's doing exactly what he's employed to do. He's a total cunt but he's working for a bigger one. It's only incompetence if he was trying to improve the football team's chances of success. He isn't.

I'd have been happier to have the squad we had on January 30th than the one we have now. Does that answer your question? We are much weaker imo.

This summer was all about replacing a player worthy of England's number 9 shirt and worth 35 million quid. Giving it a 1 would be too generous imo.

He'll be as delighted as his bosses are. Costs kept to a minimum.

Ian, you poured a great deal of scorn on those of us who weren't naive enough to believe the club's lies since January, such as across the last three months when it was fucking obvious that the club weren't making genuine effort to replace Carroll. Dismissing it as' pessimism' is ridiculous. I would categorise it as simply not being absolutely fucking stupid.

Pathetic shambles.

Macheda, man. Hopefully he'll want paying, which will quickly scupper any deal.

Sign some fucking players ffs. Right, back to my holiday.

Fuck's sake.

I'd struggle to justify swapping Smith with Jerome, comfortably one of the worst strikers I've seen play regularly in the Premier League. Only you could try and spin Smith leaving into a negative thing.

The night you made your cucumber thread was the best ever night on here. No idea why. I know what you mean though, it's fucking shit arguing about something other than the blokes kicking the ball round the field.

Aye, you need a blocker/whack it into touch/win every header/last ditch tackler type defender for a partnership to work I think.
