Good point. Whenever he does beat a man it looks like it's more down to luck than judgement. He's just a constant disappointment.

Yeah. Pretty sure I saw him saying it was his decision. Calm and collected under pressure. I still have faith in him to get us out of this mess.

Absolutely vintage NUFC

I think he's fucking rubbish

He's rejected an 'unveiling' on the pitch like so maybe not. I think he should pop out of a massive cake in the centre circle a minute before kick off.

My post might have come off harsh but i think there's every point in ignoring the results come kick off.

I'll be singing, shouting and abusing mackems as much as anyone tomorrow. Nothing else for it considering my ticket is up in level 7 and I'm no more than a dozen seats away from them. enjoy

I'd hate to be watching the match with Wallsendmag, like. Crushing negativity all week. We're playing the mackems at home man, get your tail up.

That's the 11 I'd go with. Shelvey and Gini in the middle and Perez off Mitro

One thing's for sure, we're due an absolutely massive slice of luck in this fixture. They've had everything their own way for ages.

this stupid fucking club man

He's rubbish. Useful against the bad teams as he might bundle one in, but if you need any sort of coherent attacking game plan he'll always be the one to fuck it up. His control is pathetic, his passing isn't much better and he consistently makes bad decisions.

Agree with a lot of this, it's absolutely pointless knocking the ball up to Cisse, at least Mitrovic does something useful with it sometimes. I'd play Perez up top with him as he looks the most likely to get a goal. Mitrovic's link up play is usually pretty good.

If we beat both of them, we're staying up. They'll both draw their way to the end of the season because both of their true brit managers 'know what they're doing'.

Just don't lose I reckon, a win would be huge but we absolutely can't afford to give those fuckers another 3 points. After the derby we have a 2 week break, a lot more time for Rafa to get things sorted for the last 8 games. Nah, we've got to beat them because it's the only game remaining that we can have an influence over their point tally come the end of the season. We've got players who can hurt them, we just need the gameplan and the application, the last one will be the issue.

Yeah Gini and Shelvey as the two, it's the best option by a mile, also frees up one wing for Townsend, who looks the most likely to make a chance. I'm fucking done with Sissoko, he's pointless.

Nah, just knackered.

Eurgh, absolutely have to beat these fuckwits. Draw is the most likely result but it would be so deflating.

Not having that like, Gary's a total gentleman.

Aye, but his lack of composure gives me Shivers, it's like his teammates just aren't on his Scanners. As always, lots of Eastern Promises followed by a Crash. I do like him but I can see why plenty of others wish he would go out of eXistenZ. POTY

Is it tragic that I got a little buzz on because he had an NUFC badge on his suit jacket?

Opposite here, I spent pretty much all of the second half stood up and swearing at the TV, like the olden days. Yep, same.

Much better in the middle imo, where he can use his quick feet and pace to get out of trouble, get away from a player and take us to the next phase.

Much better performance, they did nothing. We really need to find some cutting edge from somewhere though because we're terrible when we have to make something happen on the edge of the box.
