Better from Shelvey

He's a fucking disaster in games like this.

Was thinking exactly this when he was saying they started Perez for pace up top. Get Mitrovic up there with him and have a fucking go man.

Ironically enough it's a textbook method of deflecting blame from the players, which he seems to be trying to do constantly.

Of course. Does anyone really think otherwise? That's been obvious since Pardew was appointed

Depends on your personal reason for investing in the fortunes of the club. If it's a daily/weekly distraction from real life and an excuse to have a pint at the weekend, yes. If it's a bit more than that, an institution for which you feel pride and respect, representing the hopes and dreams of a region that needs them, then no. What's funny? The insinuation that those not wanting Newcastle United relegated see the club only as a distraction on a weekend. Couldn't be more out of touch with reality. Ahh I see, I can see how it came across that way but that's not really what I meant. Fwiw I'm not that fussed either way. I don't want us to go down purely out of instinct, but I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't find it more interesting if we did. Either we come straight back up and have a good season, or we stay down for long enough for Ashley to cut his losses. Either is better than this purgatory imo.

I was prepared to give him a chance, for longer than most. I'm not even that bothered about his comments, the tactics etc etc but he has to go now. You can't ignore how bad these results are if you want to stay up, it's as simple as that.

10 Has Inochi voted?

HERE MAN YOU FUCKING MUG, PARDEW IS FINALLY SHOWING HIS COLOURS AT PALACE AND YOU'RE FUCKING RUINING IT!!!!! Sack him, fucking sack the fuck out of him.

I'm not sure about that. We all know Ashley's desperate to stay up, hence unprecedented spending this January. I've got a feeling he'll be gone before too much longer.

Sounds like it's going well

I can't get logged in to my account, I'm fucking livid I'm half expecting my account to have been deleted and posts removed tbh.

Massive pressure to deliver now and the new signings need to hit the ground running or we are gone so lets see a positive team selection away from home instead of worrying about the opposition for a change Townsend LWB with 5 at the back ftd (for the defeat) it is then, with long balls hoofed to Mitro. When are we going to finally get a manager who's positive and excites us before each game, regardless if it's home or away? We've gone from massive cunt (Pardew) to mental case (Carver) to milquetoast Uncle you never call because he's just so fucking shite at everything (McClaren). Partridge

Yep

Agreed. Just got to hope McClaren can nail the counter attacking plan he's been going for. We've got bags of pace up front and a midfielder pulling the strings who can play the killer pass. We're still gonna concede loads though. Either way, it's not going to be boring

I think we'll knack them

Lovely stuff

Sounds like we're on about our 5th or 6th left back target. Fucking hell man, this should have been sorted on Jan 1st.

He looks fucking muckle.

Funny how sky seem to know about who hasn't 'reply to all'. Bollocks. Hes waiting for an auction to happen. If he doesn't sell just before the deadline at this price he's absolutely mental i agree, berhaino is going today like, peace is a f***ing madman if he doesnt sell a player who isnt being played and has 18 months left on his deal for money like this. Why would he care? TV money more than covers it, also they'll get similar offers in the summer. TV money or TV money + 20-odd million? I don't care how much you earn from TV money that's still a huge chunk to cut your nose off at. Tremendous

Pretty sure all that's needed is an agreement in principle before the deadline.

What? 17!?

Think he'll end up at Spurs, they're heading for CL and challenging for the title, would make sense.
