Not crying yet then?

i can worry about a couple of things at once, this is one of them. ta So you are not worried about Argentina's stance over the Falkland Islands and another possible invasion of the islands, which we cannot allow, the way Syria is bombing and killing its own people in order to prop up a despotic dictatorship, Iran developing nuclear weapons which could very well lead to a nuclear holocaust in the middle east, as Israel are sabre rattling as I write this. Our soldiers being killed or maimed by the Taliban in Afghanistan, then there are the austerity measures imposed by the current government, the state of the Euro, and in particular Greece ( dont overlook the fact that if you plan on going to Greece for your hols this summer, you wont be able to use a credit card to pay for meals etc. Its cash only!). If none of this causes you the slightest moment of concern all I can say is you live a very insular life or you have found a very comfortable hole in the sand! With that logic you should never worry or be annoyed if Newcastle lose a game or sell one of their better players or don't make crucial signings as it's not really that important in the grand scheme of things. Plus CP40 didn't state that he didn't care about world issues... he stated that he could care/worry about multiple matters.

No longer looking forward to this. Cheers Pardew, you massive bellpiece.

Just seen Chelsea's line-up. We're boned.

..Shit. Loven? Shit.

SSN: 'Team news from Newcastle at St. James Park when we get it..' Yeah, too right.

that was the no public sale, not small allocations? fair enough if its on tv, but 3pm saturday's would generally be fine Hmmm, maybe. This question was answered when the 'board' did that Q&A thing back in September I think it was. Not that their answers really mean much, but might give an insight. Have a look.

They claimed it was because of what happened in pre-season with the pitch invasion.

He's spot on about this tbf. f***ing does my head in and is just more conclusive proof that lorry drivers are twats. Yeah, Owen has a good point but at the same time I've never had the chance to pop to work in a fucking helicopter so he can wait his turn this one time I think.
-
If you don't want to give too much away then don't bother at all to be fair. Either say what you've heard or just keep quiet.

Didn't Guthrie lose his driving license when we were in the championship for driving live a twat?

Left a pie in there more like. Nah, he'd never leave it in and not touch it. He loves his food.

Anyone else chuckle at the use of moribund?

My opinions of the game... Elliot - Fairly poor for two of the goals (the first one he should have saved really), but would release the ball quickly for a counter attack and didn't seem to let his head drop. Not sure I'd like to see him in a prem match just yet. Simpson - Couldn't trap a bag of cement. Some really poor control from promising crosses to him that was quite annoyed. Scored with a lovely little cross that was never meant for the net. Perch - Unimpressed really, not terrible but I never had confidence in him when he had the ball or went to clear it. Coloccini - A collosal performance from him. Led by example, sorted out any mistakes he made and scored the winner. Fergie - Played alright and seemed to link up fairly well down the left with Marv. In extra time he seemed to cramp up really bad and go moved to the middle of the pitch and swapped with Obertan. I don't think he's built for a full 90 just yet, always picks up little knocks. Gosling - Fairly tidy, reasonably quiet. Made some nice touches and tackles but quite anonymous for the whole. Decent squad player it appears at this moment but not a starter. Abheid - Looked very tidy and comfortable in possession. Didn't seem to tire and worked hard throughout. Some good potential there. Marveaux - Looked very impressive. Direct, pacy and with some awesome tricks in his locker. Exciting. Ben Arfa - A cut above on the whole. Had the Forest players constantly guessing and some of his vision and passing range was amazing. I think he'll be a bit hit and miss but when he's on form he'll be unstoppable. Lovenkrands - Didn't do much apart from the 2 goals from what I could see. Got the goals that mattered so fair play to him but I'd like to see him coming in deep sometimes and trying to help out in the build up of goals rather than sitting on the shoulder and hoping. SUBS Sh. Ameobi - Offside too often. Wasn't terrible but I just wish he'd look down the fucking line. So frustrating. Sa. Ameobi - Some excellent little runs, cut ins and moves. Always fighting and got some great pace. He's very raw, but one of my favourite up and comers. The crowd were loving him! Obertan - Not bad, a very decent sub I'd say. He got moved to left back because Fergie lost the ability to track and run it appears from cramp and he did a decent enough job. I'd like to see him being more direct like Marv is but that final cross was inch perfect. Pardew - Did well with his selection and subs really. No complaints. Forest Players - Went down like sacks of shit. Annoying to watch. Gave a decent game. Ref - Ridiculously biased in some instances, gave them something every time a player went down. Gave the penalty though which some refs wouldn't. Could have been stronger.

Looked good last night. A neat, tidy enough player.

This. Some people on here were calling for Keegan to quit about 6 games into his second management stint here when he still hadn't got a win. Some stuff that comes up in the match threads here aren't that different to the above.

Amazing how conditioned we have become to the luxury of tv coverage at our fingertips. Remember living off a combination of ceefax updates and listening to the radio awaiting the updates around the grounds during their main coverage game. In a way its a surprise all the games arent screened for the Carling cup. Im sure they will in time. Live in hope the individual teams websites can get the rights down the line. Its madness we dont use our website to screen reserve team and youth games live or even repeated in full. I would definately sign back up if they did that. This! I'm sure plenty on here were watching that ceefax page when we played Portsmouth only for it to change to 1-0 in the last few minutes. Memories.

Helped us keep a clean sheet though, Johnny 2-points.

To be fair they always do this on MNF.. we're hardly the exception.

It's his boozing & 'lifestyle' that's supposedly keeping him out of the England side currently... according to Capello.
