  1. Predictions for Fulham - Spurs. I'm backing Fulham for this one.
  2. Stoke giving away some stupid freekicks here.
  3. Saw Mancini at the Stoke game, trying to hide in disguise, clearly working out which of our players he is going to unleash de Jong on this time. In two minds about this game, we could well prove to be their stiffest test to date, or we could get embarrased. I'll be praying for the former. Hope to fuck Pards goes for it, I know to a degree you have to try and contain them, but it would never work for 90 minutes anyway, so attack, attack, attack.
  4. (Sorry, really didn't think I'd get anyone with that one.)
  5. Completely fits in with our transfer policy though.

    Don't remember the full story, or where it happened. Think I read it on .com some time last year. He was spotted heading for the ground and someone (Newcastle fan) hoyed a pie/pastie and it hit him in the back of the head/neck. He legged it into the ground and judging (by his predictions) may have had it in for us ever since.
  7. David Luiz may be a canny CB, I really haven't seen enough of him to judge. But, right now, in the premiership... http://s7.postimage.org/xd6v88ytn/The_Guvnor.jpg ...he's a fucking liability!

    Doesn't deserve the title of pundit, does no research. If he knew anything about us he would know Pards would never let the team think all they have to do is 'turn up'. Everything indicates the opposite in fact. One game at a time. etc. He's the 'turnip'
  9. He's never forgotten that pastie (or pie) that hit him in the back of the head and had him scuttling for cover.

    Woah, some of those passes were sublime. But we can't drop Besty, it will change the team dynamics. Damn right it will. Yeah, like in the Blackburn game when we played Ben Arfa, Santon and Marveaux like everyone wanted. Been here long enough to know you love nothing better than taking a contrary position to stir up some debate. Here of course you provide evidence in the shape of one game, a game where even our own players stopped to watch, as often as not, whenever Ben Arfa got the ball. Best puts in a canny shift, but limits us as an outlet. Not to say he's one-dimensional, but he is simply limited in what he offers. We tend to pump balls towards him, he takes them down on his chest or head and tries to maintain possession long enough for other attackers to arrive. Our main problem though is not who plays up front with Arfa but who plays as fullbacks. Two really strong fullbacks would free up our wide players to make more runs in behind the defence as they would not be so involved with helping out at the back. Then Best becomes peripheral and we're more suited to Ba or a Maiga, Erdinc type of forward. Ben Arfa can't fashion chances with a static frontline, and the more he plays the more our own players will adjust to him and start to move into those spaces. Jonas, Marveaux, Ba and Obertan are all well suited to play these parts imo, the only thing missing is familiarity and two good FB's. Maybe Santon is one; but I forget, you already saw him play at Blackburn and have consigned that idea to the trash.

  12. This "not been tested" is pure shit. We were not fancied by any of the 'pundits or experts' at the start of the season. Now we're sitting in third and continue to bamboozle the predictions. We just broke the pattern that was set out for us and rather than look for explanations that are genuine they just come out with all sorts of excuses to try and leave their initial predictions as intact (in their minds) as possible. I seriously believe it is possible for us to take 4 pts from those three fixtures. We may not, but it's definitely possible. I think we will prove to be City's toughest test to date because of our defensive record. Chelsea are there for the taking if they continue to defend the way they have been (that David Luiz is a fucking liability if you ask me), and Man U are not defending well either atm - though they were a more disciplined side against Everton.

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    Could start next game? Everton are a footballing side and we could do with his flair. See him getting 45m anyway.
  14. Just want to say how I keep staring at the table with a mixture of pride and disbelief. 3 Newcastle 10 3 2 0 8 4 3 2 0 7 3 +8 22 Unbeaten after 10 games!
  15. I think we'll win again, and may see some team changes for this one.

    James Perch

    I'm guessing there wasn't one among us who didn't think or say 'wtf' when we saw him coming on, but he was combatative and kept up the pressure well. Well done Pards.
  17. Predicted four NUFC losses in the last six or something? (Happy to be corrected if I'm exaggerating I'd genuinely like to know tbh) Team Predicted Actual Stoke CityAwayLoss Win WiganHomeWin Win TottenhamHomeLoss Draw WolvesAwayLoss Win BlackburnHomeWin Win Aston VillaAwayLoss Draw Queens ParkAwayLoss Draw FulhamHomeWin Win SunderlandAwayDraw Win ArsenalHomeLoss Draw Now there's prejudice.

    Alan Pardew

    Loved the towels. Top trolling. And top tactics tonight.
  19. Excellent performance and I'm not going to find fault with any of our players over 90+ minutes. Gary Neville almost in awe of us. Stoke can have no complaints regarding penalty as it was close to identical to the one they got. Roll on Everton on Saturday. And as to that being our toughest test, in some respects I suppose, but Spurs at home were no walk in the park.
