Fly him out to Russia middle of February after months out with a hamstring injury. I know we're all desperate to see him back but have a word Whats gonnahappen sitting down for 5 hours gonna damage him in some way? I'm not a sports scientist but I think it is pretty bad for you actually. I might be wrong like.

Newcastle 0 - 0 Metalist Kharkiv - 14/02/13 - post-match reaction from page 40

NUFC or Metalist fan? NUFC. A group of lads tried to push to the front of the queue as it was busy, most people said nothing but I asked them not to. One of them then proceeded to throw all sorts of insults in my direction ("Ugly, typical lass knows nowt about football, uurrgh you're wearing a hat" ) and pushed in anyway, only to be told by the turnstile operator that he was in the wrong queue as he wanted to pay cash. When I grinned and laughed at him he took a swing for me (I dodged and he knocked my hat onto the floor instead) while his mate did the same towards my lad before some random bloke intervened and dragged them both away. The stewards on the inside saw the whole thing but just laughed it off and said they were drunk (they weren't particularly), which was disappointing. Fucking hell man. -

Cisse and sis socko need more support -
In all fairness though unless you watch the Russian league you don't know the quality of it. Plus we pretty much do the same with all these French players.

Me too, no idea hows he's found himself out of the team latley.

Shhhhh, the English on here don't like Celtic, because their supporters don't like them... Why do you care if people like Celtic or not?

They really didnt come across very well like.

He'd certainly get the dressing room sorted out! My only question would be how he would handle the "bigger name" players - would he just send them out to do their thing, or would he try to man manage them. He does set teams up to play exciting football, and he's clearly learnt a lot over the last few years. I still have a bet on with a couple of people that Adkins will manage England one day. Whats wrong with thre dressing room? Well clearly nothing now, but a couple of weeks ago everyone here claimed that Pardew had lost it ;-) What a strange point to make. Is it? Adkins major strength is he knows how to unite a team. People have been claiming for months now that Pardew doesn't have the dressing room anymore. The comparison is between Pardew and Adkins, so I feel it was a perfectly valid point to make. So are we so fickle on here that now we've beaten Villa and Chelsea that the dressing room is now united? Or is it that Pardew hadn't actually lost the dressing room in the first place, it was simply his s*** tactics causing the problem? Both tactically and as a man-manager, I'd take Adkins over Pardew anyday. Anyone who claimed he had lost the dressing room was basing it on nothing more than pure speculation.

Aye, there's no problem with Cisse. He's been playing well lately.

I thought up until the second goal he put it some vital blocks and was playing really well. Seem to remember Lennon running at him and he just took the ball off him. Couple of crosses he read really well too. He isnt himself like no doubt but thought he was ok yyesterday. Still cant decide who was at fault for the 2nd, bit of both maybe.

I counted him once in the second half rolling the ball to the defender.

Jesus, Stelling. Rodney Marsh said on Twitter yesterday, 'Stelling is a great presenter, terrible judge'.

Pardew loves a 'trust me' at the minute.
