Cowards.

Anyone surprised? I'm not. Lambs to the slaughter again. Cowards the lot. :-(

Horrendous news.

I said this in the mackem thread, the other night.

How much money have you put on this certainty? I don't gamble. It's just a feeling I have.

Mackems did it last season - I can see them putting a couple of wins together. There's more fight and desire 11 miles down the road, than there is at NE1.

I think it's going to come down to us and them as to who is relegated. I know who my money would be on to stay up and it's not us.

Someone from the club, no doubt!

I'm amazed at how quickly the club put that 'statement' out. Clearly he is rattled and if you ever needed to know a way of getting to Ashley, this is it. I'm gonna watch the documentary later on (recorded it last night)

He's cracking. Won't be long now. If he had any dignity, he'd have never taken the job in the first place, nevermind resigning. One of us? My arse.

Not that I've seen MotD, but I bet Shearer will be sticking up for his mate (Carver) There's a gaggle of them, which includes Steve Howey that won't have a bad word said.

Me on TS - 21mins in for those who missed it; http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02p4f08#auto

Should get that retweeted around, fellas. I've shared it on the TF group. Am not surprised in all honest - he's a fucking charva.

Aye

Carver - said he was 'brave' through starting two strikers. Let down by defending at set-plays. Name-checked Jonas for the free-header. Some 'good spells' in the first half - mad 5mins either side of half-time cost us. Confidence drained from the players when Swansea went 2-1 up. Janmaat was taken off due to feeling sick. Good news - Sissoko back next week - de Jong scored - felt he did well. Dummett returning too. Sounded like a very cosy chat with Mick Lowes.

Great call, you nailed it on the head. what was said? Stuck the knife in - said that I believe we are destined for relegation, Carver is a loser and needs to walk. Club captain has a heart the size of a pea and that resonates throughout the team. Also said it Carver had any dignity, he'd walk tonight. Ando countered by saying that who would come in to manage for 5 games? Also said that if we do go down, then Ashley will deserve it as will the match going fans.

waiting to go on Total Sport,

He should walk, but he won't.

I've been to kip since before 3. Looks like I've not missed much!

Yup - well done lads and lasses.

You'd think common sense would dictate to suspend the lad until the outcome of the court case. They must be desperate.
