Have to admit I am enthused by the Kinnear sacking, his managerial appointment seemed inevitable. I have turned into one of those mythical "would rather lose 4-3 than win 1-0" fans the media created years ago now. Just want to see us actually go for it in games rather than play it safe and pick up the necessary points to stay up. I've said it before, rather play entertaining and finish 17th than play this dross and finish 8th.

Ah, interesting. It's relatively new and would be some time before it's ready to be the new clinical standard though. FIFA had applied bone scans for youth tournaments since 2009. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_fraud_in_association_football I thought FIFA were using brain scan, but like I said I was wrong there. Had a feeling Baba had mentioned Nigerian youth teams using brain scans.

Google is my friend: http://www.livescience.com/22436-age-revealed-by-brain-scans.html

For them none. For him loads, although don't they scan players brains nowadays so they get an approximate of their age? I think you meant bones. Pretty sure it's brain MRI's. Might be completely wrong though so weird that I'm feeling this sure about it. Will have to google that shit.

Anal Oliver Thought he was dead.

If those news were true I'd be willing to bet £5000 on a Newcastle win just to jinx the fuck out of it so that I either walk away with a huge profit in money or Pardew goes. Fucking detest this prick, can't believe my pulse actually beat faster when I read that. That article is pure

Neymar looked unfit. No way he'll play Tuesday, although he did score a very good goal. He does have a shot on him although his legs look weak as fuck.

Coutinho has had like 3 good games of late, and yet again completely different position and player. Put Ben Arfa in Sterlings place and he'd do better. You'd sacrifice a really promising young player like Stirling for Ben Arfa? Not a chance. I would if Ben Arfa produced the type of football I believe he can. Also like someone else pointed out, a top team needs rotation between players.

Watch Ben Arfa going to Tottenham or Liverpool and ripping us a part twice a season from the summer on...

He passed away last year if you mean Bruno Metsu.

It's not mutually exclusive man, pardew can be s*** and a total bell end and mike Ashley can be the same . I've never said Pardew is this great manager or anything though. I just think he's average and very lucky to be at this club. He should be at a low prem club at best, like Hughton is now. They are about the same in terms of management ability imo. Ashley had the chance to upgrade, he didn't want to because he's not interested in the next level. I'd love for Ashley to prove me wrong, if Pardew was sacked, i'd be worried what was to follow but intrigued. I just won't be celebrating like i was with Hughton and expecting a top manager to come in. The fact you think he should be managing in this league is alone a reason to say you overrate the turd we have managing us. Sacking Pardew would be a brilliant decision, if he was replaced with a decent manager. Ashley is a massive b****** but he doesn't cause us problems on a weekly basis, Pardew does. I'd forgive Ashley for the time being is he sacked Pardew. I'd give him a chance to redeem himself, that's how much I hate Pardew.

Again, not taking any blame what so ever, f***ing coward arsehole. How about just one line of "I have to look myself in the mirror and and do better too"? No, the man is too f***ing clueless for that. I'd have anyone over him, seriously anyone. I f***ing despise him, he's the biggest fraud this club has ever had. Hope everyone realizes this now and are not blinded by some s*** lucky wins that we've had this season. Absolute asshole.

Why not? I don't know much about him apart he's won a few titles in Germany. Isn't he a nutter? Or repuatation for being a bit mad? Ah, ok. Seems to work for him though Don't think I've ever heard a player praise him. He's won stuff, but if the player doesn't answer to him it will go so wrong. Especially since the players are already feeling a bit of pressure I'd imagine.

Sick of hearing this rubbish. Especially when they criticize him when the team clearly isn't playing to anyone strengths. He gets more praise and more shit than anyone on here. It's absolutely ridiculous that a talented player like him who has done so well when he's played in the right position can be criticized this way. It's like playing the ball in front of Shola and trying to use his speed. Our manager is absolutely clueless and so are some fans.

For them none. For him loads, although don't they scan players brains nowadays so they get an approximate of their age?

Felix Magath This won't end up well.

Although I'd have Santon and Haidara all day over Dummet. People just rate him because he's a local player. Absolute garbage of a footballer and I know he's young but both Santon and Haidara are too. Describe to me how he's "absolute garbage" for f***s sake. Anyone moaning about Dummett being s*** at this stage must have cried tears of blood when watching Ramage, Huntington, Edgar etc in our defence seven or eight years ago. He looks a mile better than any of those already - played about seven or eight senior games in our shirt and has yet to be culpable for anything (Sunderland enforced CBness aside). You're right about the 2nd sentence at least. Culpable doesn't mean everything. He just lunges balls forward, could've easily been sent off against Sunderland and doesn't provide us with anything. Got his goal in that draw against Liverpool. Sorry, I don't see it, and I'm pretty sure the future will agree with me. (although I guess you never know).

Shaktars owner will pay the rest of Maicon (who passed away in a car crash last week) contract which ends next year to his 7 year old daughter and his elderly parents as respect as the contract is legally invalid since he passed away. Take note Mike, not everything is about money in this world.

I'd kill myself.

Which one of them is supposed to be quick? Cissé wouldn't get away from Williamson. Also discussion about Pardew and Hughton is amusing. One if a defensive minded manager with not a very good squad at his disposal, the other is a complete fraud. I wouldn't have any of them, but Hughton is a football manager who will probably never be at a better club than he is, but Pardew shouldn't even be a manager at Norwich. This is the guy that benched Carlos Tevez at West Ham ffs, this is the guy that benches Ben Arfa consistently even with bunch of players injured, and this is the guy that after this many years at the club still hasn't found a way of playing football. Season we finished 5th was all down to individual brilliance, this shit doesn't deserve an ounce of credit for anything. (well exagerating obviously, but I endured the Souness era, this is worse).

Hated those colours. Absolutely horrific.

Following my low odds strategy I've made £100 in profit and taken them all out of my account. Anyone who knows enough about plenty of sports should follow. I bet on everything. Every night I take out so I have exactly £10 left in the betting account. These £10 are put either on a easy double in basketball and tennis or a single where I'm sure of the outcome. So I basically always wake up with £14-17 and from there on I slowly build a nice wallet to take out. And repeat. Feel invincible at the moment, but obviously it'll all come crashing. The day I wake up with £0 I've made myself a rule to wait 7 days before starting again so I don't chase losses. I'll be a millionaire by 2056 like this.

For the first time ever I missed a whole half of Newcastle without being forced too. Thought this game was on sunday so had already made plans just to miss it. Unfortunately it's next weekend and I think I might be free. Can't believe Pardew has done this to me, would never believe to care as little as I do at this moment. It's like we're nailed on to lose every single game. And losing isn't the problem, it's the way we're playing. Watched every game when we were relegated, but at least we were shit because our team was shit back then.
