Wish Pardew would keep his fucking mouth shut, most of what he comes out with is fucking woeful stuff. Throwing your young goalkeeper under the bus in an attempt to find a scapegoat for a pathetic team performance. Doesn't surprise me though, I really wish our entire club wasn't run by cunts.

Will probably start next week and all, to give us some "bite" against the Mackems. Fucking wanker, I hope he loses all the money he's stolen from NUFC in some sort of heartbreaking fashion.

In what sense? There's absolutely no chance it's getting overturned. I can see why people think it SHOULDN'T be a red card, but for anyone to expect the FA to rescind that with the rules the way they are is madness.

I'm impressed that so many blind people are posting on the forum, to be honest.

Fucking awful game this, on so many levels. Fuck off Stevenage, you cunts.

No way it gets overturned like. Sure the end result was that he gets the ball and the opposition player walks away just fine, but it's a pretty wild lunge with two feet up and studs showing. It's the kind of tackle that can end up seriously hurting people if mistimed only slightly, just because Tiote executed it to perfection this time doesn't mean the FA are going to let him off.

Tiote needs a slap for that as well mind. Farce of a game.

Sorry, but there's just no way I'm not better at football than Alan Smith.

Inspiring viewing at 3.30 AM this like.

dunno but it was moving faster than nolan At 2,288mph I'm not surprised.

Harper would just now be going down to try and save that...

Surprised people want us to send out a reserve team, glad Pardew is going with something close to our strongest 11.

Always fancied Joey on the right btw. http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,44897.0.html (Though it's best for my credibility not to read much beyond the thread title)

Certainly not going to be upset at this signing if it does go through, puts the vast majority of players to shame in terms of technique. Would have preferred someone who plays on the left though, I have to say. Will be disappointed if Barton doesn't stay on the right, he's been immense there.

He has to WHAT? How dare you offer your young footballers an education. On that topic, might I ask how in the hell Korea has managed to produce any competent professional footballers? Most of the poor bastards spend 12 hours a day in school it seems, really do feel for them sometimes.

Be right fucking creepy now if Jonas was found dead or something tomorrow.

Tend to agree with Decky, I'd much prefer to see us bring in a left winger to compete with Jonas rather than bring in a right winger like Bentley when we've got Barton and Routledge who can play there. Personally think Barton should play right wing full time, his crossing is quality and he gets much better use out of that engine of his playing from out there. His passing is a bit too hit and miss to really be a quality CM, which out wide isn't really an issue. Won't be upset to see Bentley come in if it happens though, as said it's always nice to have options.

Be better if they went down by just one goal surely? That way just a 2 or 3 goal defeat against us would allow them to stay up? Not that arsed about them potentially going down though, as long as we stay clear of the mess down there I'm happy. Don't think I'd celebrate anyone going down in any case, it really is fucking horrible and I wouldn't wish it on anyone (aside from Sunderland and possibly Man United of course.) They'll stay up anyway.

Aye, for a little guy he sure rose majestically for that header against Arsenal.

Hard to anything but encouraged thus far. Getting anything from City or Spurs was always going to be a bonus, to take 6 points from Wigan and West Ham is massive though. Fair play to him and long may it continue.

Nice to wake up to a 5-0 beating. Told you guys Best was amazing, Ireland (though he's English, really) ftw motherfuckers!!

Kiss my face.

Some truly shite quotes from Pardew in here like.

i could see barton in the middle that would put bentley out wide. don't agree with it but i could see it. I am still of the opinion that Nolan goes missing too often during important periods of the game and if it meant dropping him and seeing how that went then fair play for trying it. From what I have seen of Bentley the past few seasons I am not a huge fan however and can see him being another passenger that we feel we have to play because of his profile. barton in the middle drops far too deep though and we end up playing with two DM's, albeit with one that can pass over 20 yards. maybe with ben arfa and carroll up top to hold the ball that wouldnt be so bad, but it doesnt work with the options we've got up top currently. In our current style of play you're better off having Nolan alongside Tiote rather than Barton. We're very "direct" in our style (long ball merchants tbh) so when you're playing that way it makes more sense to have Nolan in the team because he'll get forward and score a few goals and get on the end of knockdowns from balls forward. Put someone like Ben Arfa (or anyone with any sort of class on the ball, really) up top alongside Carroll and then maybe there'd be some benefit to having Barton alongside Tiote, as he's far more willing to drop deep and bring the ball out from deep than Nolan is. Of course, the problem is that he's not fantastic in that role, his passing is a bit too hit and miss for him to really impose himself on a game, but if you're looking to build a better "footballing" side then you'd have Barton in the middle of Nolan. The problem with that at the moment is that we've nobody that fits the bill to play off Carroll and our wingers aren't exactly top class either. Personally think Barton has been a revelation out wide and I'd play him there full time if it were up to me. Then find someone better than Jonas to play on the left and a ball playing CM to play alongside Tiote and you'd have the makings of a useful front 6, IMO.
