No fucking way we're scoring tonight. It was decided before kickoff.

That's got to be a record - Getting the excuses in for NEXT season.

Have just picked the ones I'd like to see relegated tbh. Fucking desperate for QPR and Villa to go down, it would make me quite chuffed if they both succumbed. Either one and I'd be happy. Added Wigan in because the people of Wigan can't even be bothered with their club, so I'm not sure why anyone else should.

Free is pretty reduced, is it not? By saying it's a reduced fee, Fernandes is just trying to polish the massive turd that is Remy's contract.

Not what I said. I said that if he DID score 10 a season, I could forgive him being dreadful at crossing and passing. If he could put a decent cross in, then I could forgive the lack of goals. The problem with Jonas is that by and large he doesn't score and doesn't create. Also, one good cross does not a good crosser make. He tried to put in shitloads of them, and one found its man. But even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Give me 20 crosses and by luck one of them will find one of my players, you have to look at the bigger picture. Jonas can't cross for shit. If Pardew had gone with my line-up, we'd have won 4-0.

Look, he scored today and well done. But other than the goal, he was his normal self. His crossing was atrocious, his passing was poor but his effort and tracking back were (as always) good. Let's not start heralding this as some kind of second coming. He was his usual self, apart from one header. If we could count on him to score 10 a season, I could put up with his deficeincies. But that was his first, and even if he plays every minute until the end of the season we all know deep down that we're unlikely to see even one more between now and May. Still, good goal from him, great win, let's enjoy the positives for one night.

"aya the mags won". Do ANY of us refer to ourselves as "The mags"? I don't find it offensive, because it's not, but it's just not what a Newcastle fan would say. It's entirely a mackem term for Newcastle. Therefore I call "Attention seeking bullshit".

hamady baaawww Google translate: Hamady Ba @ hamadyba92 # Newcastle supporters soon forget huh. That move-engineering, shit-stirring, whinging, worthless leech can frankly fuck off. His opinions count for less than nothing.

This. Also, they should have been down to 10 after Ramires lunged in with 2 feet on Jonas, though doubtless Rafa will conveniently forget that. And as for Ba going off changing the game, well I'd say Chelsea played better after he went off than before.

Thought he was fantastic today. Sheer pace and power, coupled with great technique. Looks like he's going to be a monster.

We'll make subs at some point, but Sissoko, Cabaye, Cisse and Gouffran need to stay on. If any of them come off I'll be livid.

"Lets sit back and defend 2nd half" "Then I'll bring Shola on after 60 minutes to either play on the wing or so I can put Cisse on the wing."

Music seems to have stopped. What an odd 15 minutes or so that was.

He sometimes has attacking and creative intentions. Even gets forward. These things cannot be tolerated in more than 3 people in the team at once. Everyone else has to defend for 90 minutes.

Personally I think its the most believable thing around.

Is what you meant. Did we lose to Villa? We tried our f***ing hardest to in that second half. The fact that we didn't quite manage to chuck it away is scant cause for celebration.

No. But it's still worthy of pointing out how shit and horrible it is. No way should you accept shit things just because they become the norm.

Is what you meant.

So because the retarded thing he does is expected, we shouldn't moan about it? Of course we bloody should.

Made me think... Maybe it's his father that's ill?

01 Green 03 Traore 05 Ferdinand 20 Fabio Booked 21 Ben-Haim 07 Park Ji-sung (Zamora - 67' ) 14 Granero 32 Faurlin Booked 12 Mackie 37 Bothroyd 39 Campbell OK. There's plenty of players been rotated, but to my untrained eye there's still a good few first teamers there, especially in defence.

Honestly, you could have a chimp throwing poo at the tactics board as a manager and still couldn't f*** up that squad, at least when it comes to avoid relegation. How could you possibly know so much about Pardew's tactics? That's classified information!

6.5. Wow. Just wow.

Good job he had some cash ready.

The club have a policy of not speaking about anything until it has been finalised. Plus, the actual quote was: That's completely different to the tabloid-esque attention grabbing headline of "Newcastle say move is news to them". They've really just said "No comment".
