Does it really fucking matter who we buy if we buy anyone at all? Under our manager/coaches/tactics messi and ronaldo could join us and we'd turn them in to shit.

Taylor should (quite rightly IMO) be worried about getting his place back when he's available once again but I think Pardew just picks names first before any thought of form comes in to it.

This truth upsets me. Hopefully we get a proper battering and people slowly start to get a clue. Come at me. It didn't sink in versus the mackems and Liverpool. I reckon if the excuse is good enough he'll get away with it. People trust him, for some reason. True. I'm still waiting to see the "response" following those results.

If Pardew is staying we need to start building a team at his level of management.

whats kuqi doing nowadays?

And this is the player that when we got him our manager was all "he was the one I wanted", "been watching him for a while" "important piece in the jigsaw" etc. bet he didn't even once think how he would best utlise said talent or how he would intergrate in to our team.

If (ha ha) Cabaye goes then I think we need to start playing Gosling. A quality replacement ain't going to be coming thru the gates at SJP (and even if they do they'll hit a brick wall...boom boomb!) plus we'll be stuck with Pards for the foreseeable future. Gosling would be more effective in the 'system' he uses plus has looked pretty decent in pre-season. Could be like a new signing (tin hat donned).

does anyone know if we still split the players in two at training? someone works with the defenders and someone with the attackers? What I'm getting at is do we ever train them as a collective 11 to work on shape/formations etc?

If he's not getting the service in and around the box so he can produce a moment of magic all by himself then he contributes the square root of fuck all.

How the feck can people not call that a disgrace or an embarrassment is beyond me?! Don't buy in the sky sports propaganda bullshit about the top 4 and how the rest of us should just be thankful to be on the same pitch as them. Bottom line is we're in the same league as them. We've got the players that should be more than capable of having a go and at the very least making the city players come off the pitch going 'by feck, that was a tough game'. Bet Holloway isn't going to be telling his players its okay cos they play a different sport to us.

I can see SJP crowd turning on him if wet spam go 2-nil up in the first half. Would be about fecking time too. This charlatan has had it way too easy.

and whompf there it is..."prepared for the game with cabaye....." Just fuck off!

"the most important thing is the way my team plays for 90mins..." take note Pardew you fucking muppet.

hope he comes in to the post match interview and walks away a la keegan. might even have an ounce of respect for him if he did that.

might only understand one word but the difference between them and MOTD mob is like the the two teams on the pitch tonight.

I was almost starting to enjoy weekends again, wor lass even said she caught me almost smiling once a couple of weeks back and then this pile of turd turns up. Thank you very much Pardew/Ashley. Just go and do one.

heaviest away defeat for 25 years? WTF?!

no ask what you were doing.

Debuchy looks heart-broken without his mon cherie in the team.

He's been good pre-season but off course that means nowt.

That's something like the one ring in middle earth no? Lost to legend.

That's gotta be the best thing I've watched tonight. Thanks for brining a smile to my face!

37mins to go....c'mon clock.... faster faster!!!

I swear they could be wearing ice skates and still be butt fucking us.

JK will be on the interwebby thing trying to sell him as we speak.
