Ronaldo

Rubbish.

A nice enough guy but never thought he was much good as a ref, nor does anyone else, really.

Because they're sheep who believe you have to win something to be a very good manager. I wouldn't expect that nonsense on an NUFC forum, but it's here.

Just a shame that him and whoever he partners end up costing us ridiculous amounts of goals.

Rooney's finish last night, man.

I think he's better than Tiote, but that's as far as I'd go.

Anita spending another season on the bench then.

Krul?

When was the last time any player came from the SPL and did well?

Are you stupid on purpose?

Or acknowledging the fact he had some very good games for us when we finished 3rd, 5th and 7th. Not to mention scoring 2 important goals in 1-0 wins to get us into Europe. Imagine a CB doing that for us now.

I bet even Andy O'Brien could look decent on the wing in pre-season.

He's a player who doesn't strike the ball well at all and makes bad decisions in possession. He could be incredibly confident and still be abject. Disagree there like. He made better decisions on the ball in this friendly tournament and strike a better shot than I've seen him do in two years in the premier. Confidence is a massive factor IMO. It's a friendly. Alan O'Brien looked a decent winger for us in pre-season.

Titus would dominate for 89 minutes then lose it. This guy - who, granted, has a laundry amount of mitigation - doesn't even fit that description.

Wow. Put up with Kinnear. Aside from the obvious, the old bugger's already forgotten that Kinnear was long gone when our worst form occurred.

He's a player who doesn't strike the ball well at all and makes bad decisions in possession. He could be incredibly confident and still be abject.

Lots of people are sheep with no conviction. There's thankfully few of that breed on this board.

Amazed anyone could advocate having both Tiote and Anita in the side, like. Awful.

Williamson and Colo will start as first choice, we all know it.

That's the thing, though, it doesn't have to be especially cohesive. It'll get to the point where 95% are strongly against him, especially now that money has actually been spent (though the squad remains weak or weaker) and the ignorant Pardew defenders have no retort left. It'll get very, very ugly for him if results follow a similar pattern to those in the latter half of 13-14.

It comes down to the fans. They can easily make his position untenable. Either by staying away as I do or the vocal attacks heard against Cardiff. Only a matter of time before someone physically goes for him, too.

I'd take being bottom at Christmas.

Tiote and Anita ahead of de Jong?

I do want us to lose games till he gets sacked, but: Krul Janmaat Williamson MYM Santon Sissoko Anita de Jong Ben Arfa Cisse Cabella

No Remy to score goals and a defence that will inevitably concede more goals this season than last. I see not good things.
