I know. But it's weird, right? It's weird that he hasn't been sacked. At least give me that. Giving him that 8 year contract was even stranger. I've had this "Oh come on surely he won't survive this" feeling four or five times now. He always does. I felt we may have been somewhat close after the Liverpool(thank God we avenged that one when Pardew owned Liverpool last week) and mackem thrashings last season. But after this result? Mike would not even consider it for a moment I think it was after Reading, after Liverpool, and after Sunderland that I had that feeling. I agree today does kinda pale in comparison.

Oh well, he's here forever. Might as well get used to it.

Fuck this shit

I'd like to think that "Newcastle United" is sufficiently recognized as a global brand name to the point that trying to rename it would be counterproductive from a money-making perspective. It's probably the same for most Premier League clubs, which is why I suspect that if/when Red Bull does adopt a team in the Premier League they would take a significantly different approach from what they've done in Salzburg.

He's increasingly been getting things right the past couple of games but there's still a long way to go before any sort of trust is re-established.

I know it's irrational but this would be an issue for me too. Always took pride in the fact that my local club charges away fans the most and gives them the shittiest seats

This whole idea of naturalized players playing for the national team is interesting. Don't see why not imo. Korea is one of the last holdouts in Asia against any naturalized players, much like England is one of the last holdouts in Europe. I suspect we both suffer quite a bit for it.

We spent less then than we did in 11/12 http://i39.tinypic.com/2r2lu3b.jpg You've missed two off that first one: Parker out, Barton in. Spend probably about the same though. Post-Xisco signings were on average probably offered much lower wages than the ones before them, which I suspect is a much more significant indicator of spending than net spend is in our case.

The fuck

If you do know his family personally and he is actively monitoring this forum, surely he wouldn't appreciate you coming on playing itk and revealing privileged information

Christ. He just doesn't seem bothered anymore. It all matches up with the pre-season shirt sponsor ruckus as well. Most likely looking for an excuse to get out, leveraged it into a fresh payday.

Time's up really. Think he's had a bit of an attitude/mentality problem because his effort on the pitch is horrendous. Starting anew elsewhere might be better for both sides. That's assuming we somehow miraculously sign another striker though.

Looking at the highlights those are some ridiculously classy placed finishes by Remy. Why can't Cisse do that anymore...

Three points closer to safety

You know something's wrong when an approaching matchday feels like a dentist's appointment

Korean kid is going to score

And if/when he goes Postal he may kill Ashley? I hope he meant Di Matteo

That would be completely pointless. Why would MA willingly pay AP off to appoint a guy whose job it has been to coach/drill the same playing personnel whose failure has led to the Manager being fired? Not to mention that Carver does not have the PR skills of AP. Something that MA must value pretty highly as AP is always called upon to go over and above the normal manager press conference stuff. Nobody sane will take the job. He'll probably pull off a few decent results as caretaker and get it by default.

It'll probably just end up being Carver imo

DOUBLE manager of the year.

Hasn't been here long enough to have all the hope beaten out of him.

I'm convinced that it will be 4-4-2 as soon as Jonas is fit and we'll have him left wing with Remy and somebody else in the middle. Same here, Probably Ben Arfa RM, or Sissoko as Pardew is that thick. Leaves Tiote and Cabaye in the middle. Anita's out imo, again because Pardew is one thick fuck. He's perfectly capable of making us lose without unnecessarily convoluted personnel choices.

I dare say it will just continue in a similar vane. Plenty of rubbish with some decent bits thrown in here and there, providing everyone stays 'fit' (uninjured would be a better, made-up, term). Hmm, that just about describes almost every year I've supported Newcastle.

First time I've seen him bothered for ages.
