I woke up at 11AM Eastern Canadian time, and as soon as the final whistle went I've been downing Tequila and white rum shots. First time I've drunk without even the habitual brushing of teeth or at least a glass of water. Who else is getting absolutely sloshed today? Alochol > tears *One more...*

Bollocks. NOW is exactly the time to appropriate blame to those who deserve it. Most of us have been holding back long enough. The results are in. We're relegated. Let's fucking skin these bastards.

Unnecessarily personal mate, everyone is gutted about what happened. By the way, we were heading towards the bottom of the league even under Shepherd, and doing critical damage to our finances at the same time. How many people were crying out for another Albert Luque in the transfer window? You make no sense. One can go back as far as he wants, all the way back to the fucking 19th century, to appropriate blame which can flimsily be linked to our current demise. We're concentrating on this season, the one season which has sent us down. Nobody's getting personal, it's all way beyond what you and I think or might've said in the past. The man upstairs fucked up. Full stop. Previous owners did their share but didn't get us relegated, made decisions -- like appointing shit managers but backing them -- to keep us up. The current one appointed an estate agent as one of our chief scouts (Vetere) and backed a cunt over a proven world-class manager. Oh, and made profit rather than strenghten the first team over THREE transfer windows. The fat one is to blame, and should be shot, hung out to dry and stamped upon by the Toon army. Disgraceful, incompetent, and clueless.

Needs to die.

Or you can grow a brain and actually watch others who know how to run a football club and learn something. PIECE OF SHIT.

MIKE ASHLEY - THANK YOU, AND PLEASE DIE A SLOW DEATH OF AIDS, SYPHILIS AND GONORRHEA. PLEASE FUCK OFF AND DIE.

Who's going to shed tears? Anyone?

Nobby Solano.

(I've been venting since the game. There's really not much else to be said or done, we've all exhausted every single argument and blamed everyone possible for what has gone on this season. Time now to just let out the raw emotion.) *Kicks the ground as he's too lazy to get up from his seat and kick something worthwhile*

Mike Ashley is a fucking pig.

That says everything you need to know about the fat one's tenure here. It just shows that it really is just black and white.

What a stupid cunting thread. Sorry, nothing personal. But these types of jokes are pathetic. As valid a poll as an exit one.

Wait, it was TAYLOR who played Nevland onside, or am I mixing up skin colour here?

He's so bad it's shocking. Pretty much Ryan Taylor with longer legs and an unpredictable thrust.

your joking, he was awful Our only hope were set pieces. At least he could whip'em in. Also has a better engine than both Nolan and Butt put together. Him lasting 90mins would've created at least a few more chances for us to score, especially after Carroll came on. Ryan Taylor's set pieces are to football what hairpieces are to aging.

Watching Sir Bob in the stands today as this shit unfolded completely cut a cold one through the heart. Still many walk this earth saying he was 'right to be sacked.' The moment that axe fell, this club's decline was inevitable. That we would fall this far so far, nobody would've guessed.

Fucker knew he was guilty. Look at his reaction. I still don't get what this argument's about. These are called '50-50' for a reason. If the ref sees it, he's going to blow. As a professional footballer, you should know this. As fans, it gives us plenty to talk about and blame our miserable existence on. Get the fuck away from it and look at the bigger picture. Ashley needs to be gutted and hung in a public square.

Guthrie should've stayed on.

He's the one in the middle. http://www.champion.ie/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/ashley.jpg

The atmosphere died down a little with the news of Boro's goal.

That I do agree with. We've had absolutely no luck this season. But that's the case for almost all teams that go down. Every fan can track a line of injustices over a season which is solely responsible for sending their team down. It's a fact but also an inviting delusion. Teams go down for purely pragmatic reasons and not bullshit ref decisions. Even if a last-game bad decision sends a team down, as much as that hurts, to be in that situation in the first place a whole plethora of wrongdoing has to have occured at player, management and boardroom level. If we go down, it will be because of the fat one upstairs. He owns the key, he calls the shots, he makes the decisions. And he has pretty much dismantled this great club and brought it down to its knees through his incompetence. How he was allowed to buy a football club I'll never know.

We played the best fucking football I've seen in ages and every single player puts in their performance of the season, and "we only have ourselves to blame"? You're taking the piss, surely???!! You cynical cunts really need to fuck off. While it was 11 v 11 we dominated them in every single department, bar the counter. By 'dominating' do you mean in the full-out BDSM philosophy or how a boss subtly dominates a bullish worker who knows the boss's weaknesses and hits hard on the counter? Honestly, we did NOTHING with the fucking ball. We had the end product of a Chinese factory. Lotsa workers, but still create shit. If you do nothing with the ball in this league you go fucking down. Simple as. We have no pace. No players who can pass. Our only player with any sense, Guthrie, was hauled off for Ryan fucking Taylor and the longhaired Argie, as lovable as he is, epitomises the quality of this factory.

Not being negative here, I wasn't even all the way until the final whistle, but getting something at Villa would be gargantuan. If we can't beat Fulham at home it's like failing to climb your local hill and then taking on Mt. Everest. Albeit a crumbling Everest in a worse condition than the town hill. So yes, there is some hope

An obstruction on the keeper is an obstruction on the keeper. Nobody would've said shit if he'd blown before the ball had even reach Viduka's head. Granted the tug was minor, but it did keep Schwarzer from getting to the ball. Seen those given, and when Nolan did that we took a chance. Watch his reaction as soon as the whistle blows: he knows he's cost us.
