Why a tattoo of Nasser Hussein

Be have some options to pass to though. Could put a bed sheet over he pair of them most of the time yesterday

They both need to start running the channels more too

We are very susceptible to the impact of injuries to front line players. The fink tank in the times yesterday did a feature where we had the third weakest squad depth in the league. Three of those individuals were out yesterday and we didn't have the quality to replace them. This was compounded by the loss of another front line player in saylor. I'd hoped we would do more in the window but it seems that the blueprint that got us the individuals mentioned above wouldn't allow it. Hopefully it'll happen in jan. We've made a lot of progress and I think we've got to take a long term and objective view. Not easy as a passionate supporter, granted.

Fair do's. Its a matter of disposition i suppose. I see people at work every day with real problems

[quote author=Mick link=topic=92991.msg3957370#msg3957370 Lucky you. that's constructive. Well done

Was brilliant second half at everyone. Poor today but can still be very effective wide away from home.

My expectations are the same as they have been since I started watching Newcastle and that is we'll always screw up, what's yours? similar. Except i don't see us as screwing up as badly as many at present

Jesus, this thread

you tell me on yours. I'm guessing better than we are doing at present else your gusset wouldn't be quite so damp

I think expectations are too high, understandably, due to last year. We did brilliantly. This start in juxtapose looks poor but it isn't bad at all. I'm looking for gradual and sustained progress and am not unhappy ....yet

We've a wafer thin squad and a European campaign. We're in no position to sustain that yet. I wish we were but we're not.

Reading have only played 5 games

Yeah. Things have been so bad recently. A real low point for me this era

At what point do people realise that last year was the freak and that we overpeformed? For where we are right now in the evolution of the club i'd be satisfied with 8th and a cup run this year. We're still on for that aren't we?

Or the precision through balls for potent strikers. That's the perspective of an optimist. The alternative is to be an insufferable whinger

I for one was gutted about the best football i'd seen us play in half a decade and the top 5 finish last year. Wish we had souness back

Tis but a scratch

Looks like pards thinks his attitude isn't quite right. Shame as he looks a talent.

Slating from b rod in the papers today

Always best to assume the worst eh?

Quite. He's a class act. Think folk are getting a bit spoiled

I do miss him so. Hopefully back for reading

Don't get this. Would have gone but for the difference of the price of 3 pints despite living five minutes away. Get the fuck there man. I'd be there on principal (sic)

metro link it's dead easy
