Can't wait for next week, wish we didn't have that bye in the Carling Cup tbh.

More evidence if it were needed that the man is just taking the piss.

Someone listens to Talk Sport and reads too much Louise Taylor. The only people who spout that s**** are the lazy journos who don't have a clue about the area. Pretty ironic that you mentioned her. http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2009/aug/06/newcastle-united-mike-ashley-joe-kinnear TBF Dave, that;s not too bad an article. Apart for the Ssshteve Mac bit. She's improved a little bit recently, still despise her though. Kezman - are we not allowed to do certain things just because they may, at times, fall into a lazy stereotypical image? Thomson, name me one example of when a club in the Premier League has protested with success, I can name a fair few that have fallen on their arses by doing it. Go on then. Why the PL? Surely the change needed is particular to the circumstances for that particular club? The Magpie Group protests and the Shepherd protests are two that I can name. No I mean I want him to name protests that have resulted in Premier League clubs "falling on their arse."

Very little point speculating about what players we need. Unless we get rid of the fuckwit running the show, this is the squad minus whoever he can flog before the end of the month.

http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/sport/443769/Joey-Bartons-new-bust-up-Toon-bad-boy-in-training-ground-row.html JOEY BARTON has been involved in yet ANOTHER training ground bust-up which could bring an end to his Newcastle career. The Toon bad-boy was at the centre of an angry verbal exchange with Argentinians Fabricio Coloccini and Jonas Gutierez. Barton questioned the attitude of his team-mates and caretaker boss Chris Hughton had to intervene. Newcastle insiders claim Barton stormed off the training pitch and now faces more disciplinary action.

Another bloody awful Ikea job if you ask me. Change the colour of the seats and you could be at any of the others. What would you suggest to enhance the identity of it and make it unique? No idea, can't say I'm that arsed. That we're losing all character from our grounds is terrible though iyam. Every trip will be exactly the same before long. Ramage.

With only two exceptions, every manager has to work within a budget set by the owner. You can call that being a 'yes man' if you like. I'd call it reality. If he's doesn't like what's in front of him, then fine, but I don't see anything particularly heroic about it. So you think he should just take the job, fail miserably because he hasn't got any players and be complicit in Ashley running the club into the ground?

How the fuck is Shearer refusing to be another one of Ashley's pitiful yes-men a bad thing?

Won plenty of tackles but still shows zero footballing ability.

Decent point. They had great chances but were still there for the taking. Hughton totally bottled it in the last twenty minutes. There's no logic whatsoever in taking Carroll off for a start.

Sit down ffs.

Here he comes.

Krul.

Hughton's bottled this.

Brilliant cross from Barton.

Jesus wept Shola. We need a change.

What the fuck was that?

Sitter.

4 subs? Good point.

Get Ranger/Xisco and Lua Lua on for Nolan and Shola. Let's have energy and enthusiasm late on.

What the fuck is Hughton playing at?

Carroll's going off? You've got to be having a fucking giraffe.

Tim Krul has just claimed the shirt tbh.
