It's the futility of it. We played well, had bucketloads of chances, gave a lot of people on here hope. But we still managed to squander all of them, miss a pen, and walk away with no points. It's fucking soul-crushing and I don't see how you can be so cool about it.

With Joe Kinnear on a three year contract to steer us safely to mid-table Championship mediocrity.

f*** my life. Man U all over again. Hard fought, no points. Who wants to bet on another one of these coming in two weeks? No doubt we'll have Houghton spouting platitudes on MOTD about how this shows we've got the attitude to stay up. Oh, and we've also got injuries to two key players handed to us as a bonus. You know, just to sweeten the deal.

Well, now that our midfield is finally coming back I suppose it's the defense's turn to be devastated by injury.

Cacapa time?

oldtype and kaka i believe but could be mistaken. Yeah I was wrong. Like I fucking give a shit at this point.

I swear I was literally about to jump into my bed and contemplate OD-ing myself out of my misery. That last F5 just saved my life

holy shit

There we go (down).

Can't help it. The Southern media, in their infinite wisdom, is only capable of processing two pieces of information about Newcastle United. 1. They're a shit club that should be ridiculed, lampooned, and lambasted at every opportunity. 2. England's Michael Owen has the misfortune of being contracted to them until the end of the season.

Having actual central midfielders is such a good feeling. Had two of Nolan/Guthrie/Barton been available for the majority of the season, we wouldn't even be worried about relegation.

Of course, we're not allowed to have our full backline together so no doubt Bassong will be out for 3~4 weeks.

That's the thing isn't it, the players for some reason insist on only turning up for matches like this, where maximum effort will still only get us a point or even none. Then they just go to sleep completely for the winnable matches.

With the luck we've had this season, we more than deserve another David Edgar goal.

did u see the pen he took with his left against eveton blasted that one and it was possibly worse than todays "confidence" players like Oba just shouldn't be taking pens period. Nolan would have been the sane choice. (assuming this was instructions from the coaching staff and not Martins just wanting it)

I just can't get the thought out of my mind. If we go down, he gets off scot free with a big money move to whatever club after having had the time of his life up here for three years getting all girls and booze he could want. I love him as a player but it's hard not to resent him with the lack of fight he's been showing as of late.

Attacking unit has been alright, but we haven't got a goalscorer in that bunch. Defense looks like a disaster waiting to happen except for Steven Taylor who is looking (I hate myself for even using this expression) "John Terry-esque." Ryan Taylor - Jonas, Owen - Martins would be my subs.

Has to be Oba.

I honestly don't know what the fuck is wrong with Colo. It's like Deportivo has the real one locked up and slipped us his shit twin instead.

you don't need to repeat what we already know I'd like to have a nice little monologue before I slit my wrists when we throw away the three points today. Do you mind?

Boardroom full of idiots Worst (absentee) manager in the top two divisions of English football. Two big summer signings from Spain looking like a shadow of their former selves. Epic injury crisis. Non-existent central midfield. Strikers who can't score. Pathetic locker room chemistry, no team spirit to speak of. Is there a club in the Premiership that deserves to go down more than us?

lovely, there's 3m off his transfer fee in the summer then.

no he's not. Relatively speaking, I don't think any other player has contributed as much this season other than Bassong or Steven Taylor. Again, the proviso being that he isn't exactly being compared with the stiffest of competition.

1 good game in 7/8 = decent? Nahhhh... He's been a top performer for the last 3~4 times he's played. Granted, it's not that hard to shine given the rest of our current setup...

You know what? Duff is actually a decent player again.
