I'm not a fan of Barton. I've never really rated him that highly but the above post shows how little you know about football. To think that in a different thread you told Kev he knows nowt about football!! What a laugh that is coming from you. Barton has joined a new club with a new manager who wants to change things, then he was injured. He's eventually come into a side that is low in confidence and that is being regularly laughed at by a section of the "supporters." Has it not entered your head that his confidence may be low? No doubt you and your know-nowt mates in the Gallowgate had a wonderful time laughing once again at our own players yesterday, eh. So YOU knwo so much that you know a player liek Barton, who has played nowhere but this country, needs so much time, and cuddles from the fans. HAs it occured to you that if the player had not let his mouth go before he had even put in a decent performance for us, and concentrated on his performances, he woudl not be getting completely justified criticism?

Where are all the experts who KNEW he'd be great for us?? What excuses can they give? He certainly can't be geting used to the Premiership, and anyone saying a "great" player should look THAT bad, even if they are settling in with new team mates, is an idiot. The fella is what he is - a bad tempered, average player. YEah, he might shine occasionally, but he's by and large a slogger. And his mouth is WAY bigger than his ability.

Could Michael Owen do a slide tackle without getting injured?
Northern Monkey replied to a topic in Football
We need more players like Smudge. He'll not get many goals, but by god he's nails. -
Another player 'set to sign'? Jonathan Walters from Ipswich? Nope.
Northern Monkey replied to a topic in Football
Maybe he'll get to play right back. -
so we're saying that the Fulham game vindicates soemthing? What, the triumph of luck over ability?? here's a crazy idea - lets play our best players, IN THEIR BEST positions. I can't recall Fat Sam doing that recently, or indeed much at all. If he persists in trying to fit square pegs into round holes, we're never going to be more than a mid table team, and for me, thats simply not good enough.
-
Ben Haim shoudl not need time to settle into the premiership. Seems to me like he was a big fish in a small pond, and now he's way out of his league. Good enough for us? We are unarguably a medium-sized club with aspirations of the top 6, so maybe he would be ok. We've carried (and are carrying) worse defenders, certainly. Mind, Fat Sam would probably put him on the right wing or something.
-
Agree! I want that Nasri!! Is he not very good, to the extent that Fat Sam will drop him, play a (much needed elsewhere) player out of position in his slot, or pretend he is injured after a fucking hideous performance? Or, even better, is he a mid table slogger with no real flair or genuine class, who is prepared to put in loads of "graft", without troubling the opposition much? Cos if not, don't get your hopes up.

Allardyce: I'm no long ball merchant (confidential statistics included)
Northern Monkey replied to a topic in Football
is THAT what he's doing??? I thought he had some sort of inner ear problem, and kept running at a funny angle by an accident. -
That second line's pretty optimistic for you.... you think we'll win a game! Whats it got to do with optimism, or pessimism for that matter. I was honest, and in my opinion realistic. Sorry if that dispels whatever pathetic preconception you were building up.

Fusking sneak a win is right. Get out of jail free, we were very very lucky to get the penalty.

Allardyce: I'm no long ball merchant (confidential statistics included)
Northern Monkey replied to a topic in Football
What difference does it make? The team Fat Sam puts out can't pass the ball short or long successfully, and no amount of whining or bluster from the fat cunt is going to distract people for long from the fact that he's scraping by as a manager. -
As long as that man is on the other team. He's shit. He should never have been made captain, and yet again we are being undone by a bad manager and his favourite players.
-
Here's hoping he does a Dyer, and fucks himself in the first game he plays. Horrible, skiving little cunt.

Fulham (a) Pre-Match Thread (15th December, 1715 KO)
Northern Monkey replied to ChrisJbarnes's topic in Football
Article on .cock indicates he thinks Milner and Zog in tandem down a wing is doing us the world of good. Showing how dense he is. -
Who are we actually losing? Martins - he'll definately be a loss, which will be tempered only if OWen is fit. Geremi - he's shit. No loss at all. Faye? - Not been great to be fair, but we are light of decent centre backs i suppose Beye? - Starting to come good, he'll be a miss. We are in this mess because of Allardyce, if we look at ourselves honestly.

is why you are in here http://www.newcastle-online.com/nufcforum/index.php?topic=47732.0 Ooh, sorry, do my opinions not match yours? I do apologise. If you are a stupid enough person to think that Geremi, Cacapa and Smith were great signings, then you deserve all the apologies in the world. Not just from me, but from all of the right minded peopel in the world. God bless you.
-
So we should play someone who is nowhere near good enough? How does that help us?
-
Fulham Away - draw, maybbe sneak a win? Derby Home - win Wigan Away - draw Chelsea Away - lose, and most likely in an embarassing fashion

sigh

Capello confirmed as new England manager
Northern Monkey replied to kirkwdavis2001's topic in Football
You need a good strong fella to help carry all those bibs and nets around. Pearson is good at that, he could have done it. -
Name a stand after him. It can take the place of the John Hall one.

Fulham (a) Pre-Match Thread (15th December, 1715 KO)
Northern Monkey replied to ChrisJbarnes's topic in Football
We'll win, and it'll be seen as vindication of Fat Sam and his under-skilled bunch of sports monkeys. Then we'll play a decent team, be shite, and the fanboys will make fucking stupid excuses for him. We stay mid table fodder, the world keeps turning, and other fans get to continue mocking us. -
The idea of not selling some of the dross is unfirtunate. Yes, our squad is small, but some of its members are too shit to merit a place in it either way. The idea of buying in first team players is excellent. Only problem, is, most of the ones Fat Sam has bought so far have been shit. I don't hold out much hope that he's suddenly going to realise, and sign good players.
-
So, the fans who refused to accept that we needed a new manager, etc, and that we needed to "give him time", suddenly think that after a draw (in which we were less shit than recently), we have the right man for us, we've turned a corner, etc? Question: if we don't get 7 points out of the next 4 games (12 points available), will the some of you make more excuses for Fat Sam and his players, or will you accept that its not good enough? I'm guessing there'd still be some who stuck to the "bedding in/hard games/yadda yadda" rubbish.
-
A blessing, surely. I know as fans we often have rose tinted glasses, but to think that fat cunt is good enough is laughable.
