ATB

Going by some of the reactions on here I wouldn't be surprised. Oh I forgot, were we playing a top 4 no. We were playing a team that had lost their last 4 league games. Pathetic as usual. They've beat Arsenal and Man Utd at home this season, we had chances in the first half which if better final balls had of been played were scoring opportunities. For me it was a 'meh' performance, we didn't play well but we also weren't as awful as some seem to think. It was a bit like scoring a 50 on an exam where 50 is the passing mark. Couldn´t have put it any better.

God, I remember how bad they were that game and season. That they have managed to get to PL in this short of time is still a mystery

And how is Pardew going to be using him then??

It doens matter what players we have, what formations we play or if we "go for it" or not. Because it´s not were the problem lies.

Reading ahead. they were losing pretty bad berfore.

Isn't that where we were when he took over? You could at least see improvements. Now it just get from worse to worse. Besides I would say it matter now.

He could play it short to a team mate surly? Beside it´s not that every other player in the team is hoofing it either.

Can you be any worse than him? And still the club has no interest at all to replace him in any transfer window.

It doesn´t matter how it goes in this match because we are so bad it´s unreal under Pardew. Pardew and his crew has taken us to a stage were we are ok with mid table and happy to beat relegation. Hurry. Fuck off now.

Demba Ba at Chelsea

Because we got Danger Ranger!

Was always going to be the case with Harry.

Less depressing now that Harry has gone, I like AVB. Yeah, but you could only hope that it was us. They were after all our rivals last year

Had a crazy dream about him were he set up the winning goal for us in a way not even Messi would have managed The only problem - Carroll scored...

Depressing seeing Tottenham doing so well.

It´s a really complex question. From the clubs point of view we just can´t let him go. For me it would mean relegation because even if we needed one in the last four windows not one CB has come in, without Colo we would need at least two of really good quality. From Colo´s, and a human (if she is as seriously ill as it sounds) of course he should go. The complex situation in this is that he is under contract and I don´t think you just can give him away or pay him wages. If he just can´t stand being here either a club has to buy him for a market value, we freeze his contract and he can´t play for someone else or someone loans him. My main point in this is though. We can´t be without him and he has a contract. Maybe the best is to keep him and then maybe let him go home for visits at times we can.

How cares? We are doomed anyway

I don´t even think we have used all of the "Carroll-money".

I've moved past anger and into acceptance now. It's easy to fall back on 'we are Newcastle, we should be challenging' for everything, but even if you agree with that you can't just leap from where we are now to that ideal situation. That may be true but it also says a lot of what the people, that especially you two are supporting the most, has done to us.
