What happened to the fat cunt? A few years ago he would have thrown a strop and had them banned. Perhaps he is ready to sell. Strange that he's never been to a home match. Perhaps more of the same lads? "Admitted to lying to the fans", is the banner I'd like to see.

Let me know when there is a healthy challenge and not some bizarre ramblings. It's like having doctors talking about medicine then bringing in a homeopathy expert for the sake of "balance".

Basically, someone will buy them for nowt (or next to nowt) and pay off the debt.

I dont think we are talking about Rafa's substitutions and player selections here are we? Because I can totally understand discussing player x vs player y etc. It's Rafa's "negative tactics", vibe or undercurrent of "he has to take some responsibility." No he doesn't have to take any responsibility, not in my eyes anyway because he's been entirely undermined by his superiors and is expected to perform miracles from nothing. Also, the conservative tactics he has adopted are the reason we aren't 20th. (Not directed at anyone specific).

I find it remarkable that any of our fans spend a second even thinking about criticising Rafa. It's not to say hes perfect, just what purpose does it serve? There's literally a handful of people in world football at his standard or above. Complain about somethig else FFS, like our cunt of an owner. I can only assume it's a severe case of Supafanism. "Here guys, I love Newcastle so much that I can point out Rafa's mistakes."

More front foot fret at home.

I find it hard to be critical of Clark when we have the 10th best defence in the league, especially given the pummelling we get in terms of the opposition having the lion share of the ball and territory is almost all of our games. He's proven himself to be a perfectly able deputy to Lascelles IMO and his errors are few and far between. Bare in mind that Lascelles went marauding up the pitch in the first half and gave the ball away which almost led to a goal. Our centre back pairing is fine, for now. It goes without saying that it is the other end of the pitch we need to worry about.

We would have been cast a drift at the bottom by now if it wasn't for Rafa. Come the end of the season, our goal difference might be the deciding factor and that too will be down to Rafa's ability to polish a turd. That doesn't mean to say I agree with everything he does but him and Lascelles are literally the only two people at the club keeping me going right now.

Lost 2 in 9.

Made up for the daft tug.

Newcastle career over.

I'd rather we didn't hoof it like.

Murphy Atsu Kenedy Perez Front 4 please, provided Slim doesn't make it.

We aren't in the relegation places, so I suppose it's been a decent weekend.

I dont know what is a good result or a bad result for us anymore.

Apart from dropping into the bottom 3.

Mackem 2 down.

I always see it as a good omen.

Good lad Vardy .

To be fair, if Southampton or West Ham had scored it wouldnt be that much better. It's not like there are going to goalless games. It's up to us to get results.

They have had one chance this half, albeit a good one. Did I say this half only? No. They had a few first half as well. Yeah, I missed most of the first half. But I read that they had one chance in the first half an hour?
