all signed and completed. Trust me. Any knowledge on a successor?

Mention pardew shamelessly touting sissoko around (who is massively a overrated IMO) just like he has done with many other players in the past such as cabaye.

As hard as it could be, don't go to the games otherwise you are approving of how the club is ran.

Boycotting the games isn't just about not giving him your money, its about damaging the PL brand and his SD brand. Skysports & BT would not want to be showing games at SJP with an empty stadium because they would want to protect the brand they pay a lot of money for.

Laughing at people striving for change is okay then I presume? Laughing at nobody. The organisation around the protest was fantastic and I had me flyer, just tired of reading constant griefing of the '50,000 idiots'. Very much this. To call someone and idiot because they happen to have a different viewpoint is extremely arrogant. Like I said earlier, genuine football fans are loyal to their club by default, to ask them to stop going, shout against their team and actually want the opposition to win goes against the grain....and besides, nobody likes being told what to do. I think it's going to take another home thrashing for it to turn nasty again, but I'm sure the next one isn't far away. This club, at this period of time, is literally the only time in the entire history of English football that this has happened. Any other club, at any other point in time, and Pardew is out of a job. There are teams that have been relegated and have kept their manager so I don't see that. Also how many clubs have sacked their manager 5 games after finishing 10th in the top flight? Not that I'm supporting the hopeless b******, just playing devil's advocate. Spurs just sacked their manager for coming 6th. The previous one was sacked in 7th. The one before him was sacked after coming 4th. Spurs have an ambitious but trigger happy owner and Liverpool are a successful club. 10th place for Newcastle is probably above our historical average, and anyway we all know that Pardew isn't employed for footballing reasons. I don't have a problem with 10th place finishes as such, but when you are actively wanting to avoid Europe and any cup runs then it starts to stick in the craw. Then serving up s*** football on top of that is the straw breaking the camel's back. Exactly, so the focus needs to be on his footballing integrity. That goes above any s*** footballing records or tactics. He is complicit in stripping away ambition in order to basically milk money from the club, obviously same with Ashley with Sports Direct.

Think most people are fairly certain he's not. The split comes between those who want to force change, and the the large percentage in the ground that will always show support knowing full well that if the results despite their support are s****, the manager will inevitably go anyway. There's considerably more people flirting with the former camp purely on the basis that Pardew should already be on his bike by now. That doesn't make the other group idiots or mean they're actually happy with the situation. Ask most fans about Pardew and his ambitions and they would say "I'm sure he wants to get as high up the league as possible but he's probably not good enough." Where-as to me it looks like he is here to dampen any ambition, and is happy to do that. I have never seen him attacked in this point of view whether its journalists or fans being interviewed. If he gets bonus money for 10th then why would he be pushing on? Why would he want a distraction in the cups? Are there any bonus' for cups? All you hear with Cabaye is 'sold behind his back' 'wasn't replaced' as if its something he 'put up with'... to me it seems obvious the man was not bothered! I haven't seen that mentioned at all. We had all but secured top 10 by January when Cabaye went, so why would Pardew be bothered? He'd reached his objective by then and said himself "its difficult when you have 46 points"... I can forgive someone who is s*** but is trying, but Pardew is different. But the only viewpoint that comes out from the media is that he is s***, not that he himself has zero ambition, which is a disgrace to this club. Obviously Ashley plays a large part in that. Its a perfect system Ashley has set up for himself and Pardew is more than happy to go along with it, stripping the club of ambition. Why hasn't he been attacked for this? The football stats are bloody bad no doubt, but people talk about Pardew in the same context as any other manager, when he needs to be talked about it a very different context. That's the viewpoint we need the media to get out to the hooked match-going fans and if that was to happen then bit by bit those fans may eventually start thinking twice about going.

Is that not why, actually, Ashley should be targeted on Saturday too?

Should prob just let him crack on then tbh May increase the chances of Ashley leaving.

Make sure you mention this about Carver. Proper wound me up. Who do they think they are? I will. I've already mentioned it on their FB group. What exactly did Carver say? Must of missed that one. Apparently called the fans "f***ing c***s" and offered them out to a fight at the training ground. Disgrace. Please remind those twats the pardew quote "thank god were not in Europe" ram the facts down their throats and don't let them forgot such glorious ambition.

I've said before that all along we've missed to easiest most simple trick to get back at Ashley: advertise a rival company. Its what would hurt him the most (aside from not attending games). It would be so much more effective than "get out of our club". Even a poster saying s*** DIRECT is still focusing on HIS company and still, in effect, advertising his company. IMO we need to stay clear of SD and put all the focus on a rival company - and the most obvious one from where I can see is DW SPORTS (he seems to have shares in a lot of different sports company's like JD). Any banner about Pardew/Ashley? Simply have DW SPORTS in the corner. Any t-shirt about Pardew/Ashley? Again, simply have DW SPORTS in the corner. We need to beat him at his own game, he's using SJP for free advertising, we need to do the same for his rival. DW Sports is a rival to Sports Direct in the same way that Alan Pardew is a rival to Jose Mourinho. DW doesn't even have an online store FFS. http://www.dwsports.com "Your online DW Sports Store is coming soon... " If not them is there anyone else?

I take it posting a video from YouTube isn't a banning offence? I've got a Keegan tribute video made a while ago I was going to post.

I am not going to the game but will be making/ordering the following banners, around 6ft x 3ft, if anyone will take them to hold up. Anyone who will do that let me know. http://i60.tinypic.com/dnldo0.png http://i57.tinypic.com/jg16pc.png

This is easily the best formation to get the best out of most the players imo, it solves a lot of problems. Sissoko back to where he's most natural, Ben Arfa given enough freedom to attack, and Cisse not being isolated.

This for me, Haidara & Debuchy down the wings, Sissoko & Cabaye in the middle with Ben Arfa a little further ahead benhind Carroll & Cisse. It would play to the strengths of most the players and there' be a brilliant balance to the side. That's mouthwatering to be honest. But the CB's need to be bloody good, as they will not have too much protection. True although Cabaye & Sissoko would pick their runs forward carefully, with both taking turns when to sit in and help the defence. Plus both wing backs wouldnt have to boming forward at the same time.

Its definetely one of those 'big man' striker cliche's, for us he was everywhere linking up the play really well. Now, especially with the fact he's playing under Allardyce, people forget he showed in his time here theres more to him than just standing upfront waiting to flick the ball on with his head.

I'll try again, then... I dont know- but a wild guess would be he celebrated a mackem goal? Think this must've been the only likely explanation, but it was pretty horrific to see first-hand. The lad took a pasting. Fighting, fair enough, but when it's people stamping and kicking at someone on the ground it goes too far for me. I'm assuming from the venom a few were spitting that they'd warned this lad already though, now that I think back, someone was shouting at one of the stewards that they should've had him out earlier (as though he'd been flagged and f*** all was done). In terms of the actual beating the stewards did f*** all again, police turned up five minutes later when it was all over and some woman had to then be escorted out on a stretcher thing by St. Johns with what looked like a panic attack from witnessing it all. There was fighting at the end of the game in the SE Corner low down between a teeanger in a Polka dot shirt and a bloke. He was mouthing off and it all got quite nasty tbh. I have no idea what started it, but the stewards were horrendous at diffusing the situation. The one man was accusing a young lad infront of hitting his partner (by hitting I'm not sure if it was something accidental or something on purpose).

For me I would play: Cisse Gutierrez Sissoko Marvaux Perch Cabaye Haidaira Mbiwa Taylor Debuchy Krul Perch is a must for this imo, or at least ahead of Tiote (maybe could accept Gutierrez centre & Gouffran left). Learn our lesson with our game at the SOS re Tiote, and the whole season really. Perch wns tackles but also keeps the ball and has good control. 5 fresh players (including Marvaux) with Gouffran, Ben Arfa & Shola available to come on... not bad at all.

----------------------------------------Cisse-------------------------------------- ------------------------Carroll---------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------Ben Arfa--------------------- ---------------------------Sissoko------------------------------------------------ Santon------------------------------Cabaye----------------------------Debuchy -------------------Perch-------------Taylor------------Mbiwa------------------- ----------------------------------------Krul--------------------------------------- For me whether its Gouffran, Marvaux or Ben Arfa playing left or right of a '3', they spend to much time ending up in the left-bacl/right-bck positions tracking the full-backs, and leaving Cisse isolated. Cisse also could do with some help physically. Part of the worry if Pardew does get Carroll or another striker, is he will go back to 4-4-2. Yes another striker complimenting Cisse solves one problem, but then Ben Arfa/Marvaux/Gourffran are stuck on the wing and that problem would only worsen. Personally I'd buy Carroll back and play the above meaning Cisse does get more help upfront and Ben Arfa also gets to play without having to track full-backs defensively, doing more work higher up the pitch. Cabaye can dictate the passing with Sissoko getting up and down the pitch - dropping back to help out physically when nedeed. There would be good width to get crosses in, Debuchy & Santon have the staminia for wing-back, and Haidara could also play left wing-back (possibily left centre-back too). Those centre-backs are good enough on the ball to push forward and be part of the passing, and the players' individual abilities are maximised more in that set-up imo. Anita could play centre-mid or right-wing back, Marvaux in Be Arfa's position or the 2nd striker, and Gouffran possiblily any of the front 3 positions. Obvioulsy we do need to buy a couple of centre-backs, with this assumin Coloccini will go in the summer.

He didnt - by the end he was in a strop, Swansea away I remember very sulky body language, throwing a hissy at Pardew when he got subbed against Bolton, and got/allowed his agent to publically whinge about being asked to play "left wing" after the Everton game this season. f***ing livid. http://www4.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Demba+Ba+Papiss+Cisse+Swansea+City+v+Newcastle+D5DbT2-GjlYl.jpg What a clever sarcastic little boy you are? I was talking about the match in general, not a snap photo of the goal, but obviously thats self explanatory.

But thats what he have done all season with the long ball 4-4-2 (straight off the back of the 4-3-3 winning run last season too)! Hence the outcry! And who wants to see Ben Arfa picking the ball up in his own half all the time?? Its not some complicated agenda, its just common sense, and if Pardew isnt bothered Ben Arfa is having to play so deep then most people are very suprised at that.

Swansea couldnt get in behind once, as much as they had the ball we were actually comfortable, kept the shape well and broke on them. We started 4-4-2 against Bolton, and Im sure Pardew pretty much admitted it was to try and get Ba a goal. He was subbed and refused to shake Pardew's hand and I remember being really annoyed that we treat Bolton with such disregard and at the cheek Ba had to do that. It wouldnt fix things over-night, but it would help just to have some consistancy to potentially get some fluidity going. Instead of chopping & changing so much as we have this season. One thing it would change instantly is Ben Arfa being higher up the pitch and beating people in the final third instead of his own half, and thats a no-brainer for me.
