Really don't see how Roeder can get much of the blame for the state we are in. He has inherited a mess. The squad we have is pathetic for a big club like ours and that is the reult of poor decisions and bad planning way before Roeder came along. The players need to take some of the blame too. Can you ever imagine Lee Clark ever playing with the nonchalent attitude that so many of our current squad show?
Roeder should be given the time and the money to get us out of this. I think he could be a brilliant manager for us.
We have so many problems now, getting rid of Roeder is only going to make things worse.
bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif What a load of shite.His buys, his team selection, his tactics and his substitutions have proven he is an utter fuckwit. The sooner we get shot the better. Although i'm not saying he should BE shot. Just sacked, never to darken our door again.
YES, there are major issues with Shepherd, but lets not let that detract from the fact that Roeder has proven himself unfit for the post.
-
I will have fuck all faith in any players brought in by that stupid, stupid man Roeder.
-
If he had an ounce of honour in his body, he would walk away.
Fucking useless cretin that he is.
"ooh, his hands are tied"....."he has no money".....he HAD money. He HAD chances to fix things. He blew it.
Shit manager, shit coach of the first team.
Pearson as Assistant?? For fucks sake. Not good enough for an underperforming West Brom side, but hey, come to newcastle, that fuckwit Roeder is in charge!
-
0 points. Roeder is an absolute joke.
-
Why not we play Duff on the right at times. He can cut in on his left. Also its not as if we will want him getting to the by-line to put crosses in for Martins. I also said we could swap Duff and Luque around if need be.
because Duff is ineffective on the right.
-
I wouldnt swap any of our midfielders for any of Villas tbh-and also the depth is very strong too in that department.N'zog,Milner or Solano are second choice once Dyer returns unless he plays up front which looks very probable.
Then thats ANOTHER reason to hope he stays crocked.
-
He does them because he's an idiot.
-
Why haven't we got the players to suit that formation.
Butt will hold, Emre and Parker in the middle. Duff left attacker, Luque on the right, Martin Up top, or swap Luque and Duff.
Dyer could also play one of the wide roles as well as Zoggy and Milner.
Luque on the right??
-
I'm not sure anyone rates him to do any of that. The fact is he's scored most of our goals and we can't sign anyone else until January. Therefore him being out is a bad thing.
Only very, very marginally more bad than him being IN, though.
-
No way should we go to a formation to suit a player like him. The rest of the team are very largely unsuited to that formation - i'd rather build a team around those who have shown they give a toss.
-
Oh, and we played pretty much like a bottom 5 team. We'd have been gutted by a decent side.
Eh?
Under-strength team or not (bearing in mind that we were too) - they're joint top of Serie A! Indecent sides don't get to the top of Serie A.
Portsmouth were top of the EPL at one point (granted, tonights opponents are doing better than that). We weren't playing the same team that is top of Serie A, anyway.
A good team woudl have destroyed us. Did you see our central "defenders"?? Clueless, dangerously so.
-
Whatever happens Carr should never be allowed near the 1st team again.
True. Ditto Babayaro, Bramble, Ameobi as well, though.
I fear that if we play tonights team against ANY Premiership side, we increase the chances of losing.

The trouble is its bloody difficult to see if a Manager is "good" with the money or not before you apoint him
It’s certainly something that Fat Fred seems to find difficult, even though, with five managers in ten years, he's had a lot of practice. You'd hope he'd learn from his mistakes, but he seems to be getting worse at it.
I thought you would have learned by now that you always back the wrong guy too
Maybe he's just got better with practice, something Shepherd has been incapable of doing so far.
Well, he's nothing but a WUM, as he's always been - as you know, which makes it even more laughable that you agree with him
On the issue at hand – the fact that Fat Fred has led the club into decline for long enough – you and HTL are just about the only ones on the forum who don't agree with me.
I guess you think that everyone on the board is "laughable". I suspect the feeling is mutual.
you wanted Souness to build his team, you wanted the board to load him up with cash.
Nothing could be more irrelevant than what you think I wanted.
The person who actually appointed Souness, backed Souness, and decided to spend millions and millions on players for Souness, remains your big hero who can do no wrong, while to anyone else it’s clear that he's taken NUFC just about as far as he can. (Well, hopefully. If he takes us any further we'll be in the Championship.)
As I said, laughable.
If you were a nation, you'd be Italy (WW2 version)
If you were a comedian, you'd be funny.
Presumably so, yes. Else i'd be a bit of a crap one, eh? Thats pretty obvious.
-
Huge HUGE HUGE performance. Also when it looked like Moore was getting run down and beaten of pace, he was off his line like a shot. The anticipation of a PL vetran.
Far too frequently for a supposed competent, experienced defender.
Thank fuck for Krul. He did a Given tonight, and fed the idiots who think Bramble/Moore are good enough, by single-handedly saving the pair of fuckwits blushes.
-
he is a ****. Can you imagine a fuckin match of the day presenter supporting real madrid and the pundits supporting inter. Fuckin hate the ****. Support the team you were born with you ****, then maybe the irish league will have some money. Colin murray boils me piss.
wtf are you on about?
I suppose all those filthy Scandinavians should stop supporting the Toon
They should support the team from the place of their birth. Imho.

Thoughts on the game - Shambles and Moore are fucking terrible defenders.
Krul looks to be a good keeper, played well.
Luque could actually prove me wrong, and end up being a pretty average player, rather than a shite one.
We NEED 2 actually good strikers.
Roeder is a poor manager, whose transfer acumen is only marginally outweighed by his tactical ineptitude.

or, a la dickheed O'Neil, a manager appointment might signal a takeover has already started
laugh if it was Sven mind, would obviously mean an Arab sheikh was taking over
Ouch. He steal your parking space at Morrisons, or what?
-
Well in whoever put the money on. Good on Luque, not even played in a position that remotely suits him yet he scored. Nice one.
He must be the best player in the world!
-
Dunno if sacking him would speed up a takeover, but i do know it would increase the chances of us getting at least a competent manager. Which would be a nice change in the current and last idiot.
-
8 millions for Emre will be good, we can buy two good players for those money. Emre gives 100% every game, for something just tells me he isn't cut for the Premier League. Plus we badly need some hight in the midfield and therefore I hope this is something Roeder, or whoever our manager is in January, will take into consideration.

Not watching a 3min comp when i have the goals on WMP, the first one was a clear header, very well taken, the second he beat the defender and it looked to come off his head but even if it did come off the shoulder he still beat the defender got something on the ball and scored a goal!
This pointless nit picking at every little thing just screams of someone desperate for an excuse to knock a player. Fact is Shola's goals won us that game, I bet you weren't moaning at the time (actually you probably would have prefered a 2-1 defeat rather than shola scoring 2)
It doesn't matter if Ameobi is injured. Fit or not, if he was the only striker avaialble, we STILL would have no Premiership quality forwards.
-
We'll stay up. but not by much.
Manager is very poor, players are in many cases shite.

Dyer - hahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!
Players in Jan to turn it round?

Any one of our other players who can play at left back are better than that sackless piece of shite Babayaro.
