"Return" to profit. I wonder when was the last time.

Chris Twaddle.

Should have let Shola take the penalty, too.

FWIW, I am broadly aligned with the Cronky Interpretation. Weirdly, while somewhere upthread this set of views is being touted as absurd and freakish, I notice that the two options I voted for in the poll -- broadly happy with both Ashley and Pardew -- are currently the most popular positions.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Found the first half so snoozeworthy that I went out shopping at half time. Just got home expecting us to have won by three or four. Fuck's sake, that's a piss-poor result.

You'll have Ashley down in St. James Metro, trying to change it to Sports Direct.

I knew his daughter, Joan Veitch, who was a friend of my parents when I was a nipper.

1905 ... hadn't realised we once came so close to the Double.

Oooh. Dare to disagree with the majority and get idiotically denounced by 80!

http://www.more-japan.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/captainobvious.jpg Totally. But it seems it's not to some. Well I for one think it's bollocks. You think Ashley would turn down £10 million a year (say) for the naming rights?

Last time I looked the history was in the same place it always was.

And then what?

Of course there'd be more people expressing similar concerns if we were 10th. But we're not, we're significantly better off. Yes, we've been lucky at times this year and have probably overachieved a little, but you can't tell me we don't deserve to be in the top seven. Most people would consider that a massive success, look at the first few pages of the 'Battle for 7th' thread. Yes we have some good players at our disposal but so do most teams in the Premiership, before we signed Cisse we had exactly one striker who was Premiership standard, namely Ba. To say we're 6th due to the quality of our players alone is silly, we have some quality yes but we've also been starting rubbish/not good enough players like Williamson, Simpson, Ryan Taylor, Obertan, Shola and Best a lot this year, and our squad depth is desperate. The football is nowhere near as long ball orientated as we were under Allardyce btw, and it doesn't even compare to how disorganized we were under Souness. I agree that he needs to change some things, the Ben Arfa issue is very worrying for example. But to give him no credit for what we've done this year, which seems to be your viewpoint, is absurd. We were very up and down under Hughton. Some good performances yes but we also had some clueless performances. Remember Blackpool and Stoke at home? Awful stuff, the latter in particular was a game we lost due to Hughton being completely tactically naive and handing the game to our opponents. There was some nice bits of football thrown in there too, sure, but no more so than we do now IMO, you make it sound like we're completely route one under Pardew which is nonsense. We won at Arsenal due to the most route one goal of all time, great defending and our goalposts btw. Anyway, all this aside what would you propose doing? Send Pardew on his way and find someone else? Then if after a year we aren't getting good results and playing quality football we send that guy packing too? No manager would go near us. After the last few years under Ashley I doubt we're an attractive proposition as it is. Firing a manager who has massively overachieved because his football isn't pretty enough would be about the worst thing we could do right now.

It'll be stock left over from before the official change of name. No, sorry, that can't possibly be right. It clearly must be part of the evil cockney conspiracy to trample all over the great history of our club and piss off the paying customers as much as possible.

Dontooner is the new Colocho.
