Big Geordie

Mick Lowes still sticking up for Pardew on Radio Newcastle.

away fans have been immense tonight - putting the team to shame. Hats off.

3-0 Kane Another North London pasting.

Chadli makes it 2-0 Game over. Job done Pardew.

Rick from Alnwick - Bentaleb scores.

Howay!

Gouffran, FFS.

Did we also have a game in midweek or did I miss something?!

I'd hope some hack has called in out on saying that, because it's just his usual bullshit when we've bean beat.

Pardew told BBC Sport: "We play a lot better than that usually. We missed Sissoko and I must look at myself in terms of selection of the team. We need to cope without him because he's not going to play every week. We tried to be ambitious and if that's a fault we have to accept that." Where was this ambition?

He'll be peddled in the next 18months for a big fee, or will end up Pardewed. The lad is a real gem. The only one who looked bothered today.

Aye - reverted to type today. It's no wonder we struggle to score goals in the first half of games, when we are frightened to death to actually try and win from the off. What's his excuses today?

Pen to arsenal. Misery is complete.

Gouffran fucking woeful.

Was awful from the captain.

Terrific header from Perez!

Battering here we come! Shocking defending.

Gouffran stays on!!!

Good finish. Game over.

Quinn just confirms he's doing the derby next week. :-( :-( three points for the mackems it is then!

Is Abied still knackered, btw?

Need cabella on for Gouffran 2nd half. Just a total lack of creativity. No wonder we struggle to score goals first half.

Quinn desperate for arsenal to get a pen. Twunt

Quinn will be co commentator for the derby next week - just watch. Sammy looks our best outlet.

Shocking from Quinn. Couldn't be more biased if he tried.
