I would happily accept ten more years of Pardew in exchange for a trophy

Can we just have a cup finals so we can play a match that matters? Im not even asking for an actual win here, just a finals

So, Chelsea away or Liverpool away?

Shearer was retired, actually. I'm pretty sure he was playing. It was against Chelsea.

Our manager forever and ever.

First time we've been in the quarters since Shearer's last season

Seems on the verge of tears. Very happy for him. Detest his new hairdo.

What the fuck is this,I don't even....

Dear me He's trolling all of us.

Oh that would be absolute magic. A revolutionary new model, the King will manage two clubs at once!

At this point I'd love to see us play Aarons, Ameobi, and Perez behind Cisse. We're achieving fuck all this season forever anyway, so might as well play the promising youngsters and improve their sell-on value. It's so logical I wonder why Ashley doesn't make Pardew do it.

Pardew aside, those are such horrible questions.

The thing about Anita is that people assume he has another gear that he's not showing because of Pardew. I'm sure he'd be slightly better under a vaguely competent manager just like every other player, but I think we've seen enough now to decide that what we see is probably what he is: a thoroughly average Premiership midfielder.

what a load of misinformed nonsense that is. Neither one is really better than the other. They're both have a couple of marginally above average qualities.

I can't wait for us to have a decent reserve right-back so he can substitute BOTH fullbacks every game.

Whenever Williamson is playing we all think Taylor has to be better. Then he gets a run in the team and we realize there was a reason he was on the bench in the first place. And vice versa. Reality is they're both similarly below-average Premiership CBs.

Honestly he's just about as unremarkable as Colback is.

Had been on for 15 seconds according to the BBC Sport report from that game. Sammy's will have been 7.something seconds? You might be right but find it hard to believe Chopra's was 15 seconds, was as long as it took for him to run from the bench to the area. Can't find the video on YouTube, definitely used to be one. Think they mentioned on NBC that Sammy's was 6.5 seconds, so if Chopra was indeed 15 it beats that by a fair margin.

Ashley will never sack Pardew for results. Might as well get points on the board. I'm not ashamed for having been vaguely happy about the win.

We'll probably be making the "same mistake" immediately after with whoever the next incompetent shithead Ashley decides to appoint is.

He knows exactly how miserable we are and I'm sure he takes a lot of pleasure in it.

I suspect we'll win against Manchester City just so Pardew can gloat bout a win without actually getting any of the points we need for survival. We'll be knocked out by whatever the weakest team left in the competition is after that, of course.

He'll be sacked in a second if he ever criticizes or disagrees with Ashley. Otherwise he could relegate us straight down to the conference and stay bulletproof.

I had a dream last night where I logged into N-O and Pardew had been sacked. It was the happiest I had ever seen this forum be.

Oh come on, you're a Newcastle fan, I know for a fact that you've seen at least a dozen games this bad over the past five years.
