50,000 idiots who don't deserve what? s*** football, you're right. its fair enough mate, you've got your concerns about the way we're playing, so have i. i just dont think that the way that our 'supporters' react to bad times is condusive to success, at all, even when we win i leave the ground frustrated at all the negativity around. i'm starting to think that many years of false dawns have changed the fans mindset beyond repair @bobbydazzla - spot on mate

I can't recall an example of when the home fans booed a home player and his response was to up his game and suddenly deliver a blinding performance for the remainder of the match. if you get booed by the home fans when you're away from home, then in many cases it will drive you to up your game. Especially if you possess the footballing talent of Mr S Gerrard. and my issue with booing gerrard is the reason he was booed. He had a shitter for england, so f****** what ! it has nowt to do with a game in which NUFC are playing LFC. these days the fans inside the ground are more arsed about where they can direct their negative abuse, rather than singing their hearts out and getting behind the side. it is like a f****** pantomime. couldnt agree more, 50,000 idiots, we dont deserve it

sam was appointed because of what he was able to do at bolton over a number of seasons, did anyone check his record over their first 13 games? i doubt it, why? because it doesnt matter, its what you do over the course of one, two, three seasons that matters, thats when you judge a manager, not after 13 f****** games, for fucks sake, get, a f******, grip edit - wow, we can say fucks?

a nice sentiment mate, but never going to happen. i may not renew my season ticket next season, and if that does end up being the case, being surrounded by 50,000 morons every week will be the main contributing factor

i'll just give up then, good luck

what's your definiton of 'the job' ? Someone with an ounce of tactical knowledge, logic and understanding of the game. Not some fat headed prick who'll just sit there trying to look great with a head set on. Barton on for Emre, Carr on for Enrique when it's 3-0 with 10 minutes left.. all you can do is laugh. you didnt answer my question

what's your definiton of 'the job' ?

Give him time for what? How long does it take for him to realise that his impact on the team through his tactics and constant pissing about with team selection is causing more problems than they solve? give him time to get a bigger group of players that are his signings, time to drill the players into the formations he wants to use, just, you know, some time, to turn things around, i dont like it either mate, that was shit today, but just give the bloke a chance regarding the smith situation, yeah, maybe he hasnt got the balls to pick his own team, i dont know, i just find it too much of a coincidence that on the one hand, sam has a good record in this league, which surely must corrolate with the ability to see who should be playing where, and yet, smith has done nothing all season playing either wide or in centre mid and he continues to be played.....and the guy that pays everyones wages, AND ALL HIS MINDERS, wear smith shirts every week, he was on the front cover of the nufc annual for fucks sake!

i'm suggesting he, and whoever is with him, turn up with smith on the back of his shirt every week, is it any coincidence that allardyce shoe horns him into any formation he can? i dont know

give him time for fucks sake, anyone bothered about smith playing 90 minutes every week should be looking to get rid of the owner and not the manager

beye looked good today, barton looked much sharper, give sam one season at least

they wont ask him, and if they do he wont take the job

not gonna happen, sam will be here till AT LEAST the end of the season, and even then i dont think mike would dismiss him unless we have a world class manager lined up, which isnt gonna be very likely, unless he decides to spunk a hell of a lot on wages, either way i dont think we have to worry about any more speculative managerial appointments for a while, with mikes money, he's gonna want to appoint someone proven

oh, look, its an argument about shepherd

get in

gutted for him like, to be honest might make it easier for sam to get rid though as he can just play the injury card when talking to mort

fucking hell, kicking a ball? he really is fucked

mate to be fair i think martins got his chance last season, we know what he can and cant do by now hes our top goalscorer and still doesn't get a first team place thats my argument oh, dont get me wrong, i dont think he DESERVES to be left out, anyway what happened with owen? i didnt see the match

mate to be fair i think martins got his chance last season, we know what he can and cant do by now

what the fuck are you lot on about man? 12 games for fucks sake! 12. fucking. games. get a grip.

thats the difficult part like, speaking of which, can we start a petition to get anal sacked?

haha, mint

emmm, good, his business is our business now, if he's a bastard i want him on the inside of the tent pissing out, all that's needed from him now is some serious investment in players/staff and it'll take a lot to convince me he wasn't manufactured in an 'amazing owner' factory

good post htt, you've given me plenty of ammo to fire at the haters

it'll be milner and smith on the right
