Firstly, he doesn't play 433, thats a myth. Secondly, there ARE many, many better managers than Fat Sam out there, and if we can't get one of them, we're in serious trouble. The outlined part is actually a fact, my friend. Only way to solve it, is for Ashley to go mad like abramovich and f***ing buy us a decent team... that is also a fact! Cause that's how football works today I'd hate us for breaking the long tradition of buying domestic players, using shitty locals and so on... but at some point.. I couldn't care less if man utd, l'pool, Chelski, Arsenal or whatever side called us a billionaire-composed team...

fair enough, it's you opinion... however, we have to stick with him atm anyway, not many quality managers are available and willing to take over.... Mourinho won't come, Van Gaal... nope... the ones most of you want to get is not available or willing to take the job..... easy as that... Sorry to disappoint you, but this club is looking more like dreamcastle - the real 'DREAMteam' If he changes the tactic from 433 back to 442, and stops playing players out of pos. we would perform better.

At least the manager and players are on good terms eh Well, you know Decky, my forum friend, Newcastle are utter s***. I for one, can't defend their so-called 'good' performance (i.e. Arsenal), that's the sort of performance I expect every match. The reason for my expectations are simply that with the players we have (squad) and the wages they get, one should really expect them, as professionals, to fight in every single match.... other teams do.... just look at Derby... who are rock-bottom...or portsmouth... I'd say we should give Allardyce atleast a season. You know, it's fair, and for us (the fans) he can really prove his ambitions and true ability. We should only get rid of him if that's the requirement to have Ashley spend some big money. Allardyce is NOT new to the league. Allardyce should NOT be unaware of what type of players do well in this league. Allardyce is NOT new to scouting players for this league. Allardyce is NOT new to coaching players in this league. Allardyce has spent £25m on players of HIS choice. Mainly s***. Allardyce is now turning on the players HE bought/selects/trains. Allardyce has shown himself to be tactically inflexible and stupid. Allardyce has repeatedly selected the WRONG players and formations. Allardyce gave the captaincy to a player who had NEVER played for us. And who has been s***. Allardyce has since given the cpataincy to a player HE bought, who is s***. Allardyce should NOT be our manager, should NOT be given any more money. Allardyce is NOT the man for us, and keeping him in his job is NOT consistency, other than showing us to be consistently stupid. Okey... but he also sold some players, he was appointed by Shepard not Mort & Ashley, and considering the fact that we were in "take over"-talks which took ages to complete (and he can't be blamed for that), his future at that time was rather uncertain. And it's hard for a professional, yes even an experienced and professional manager like Allardyce, to stay focused on his job, when he doesn't know wether he will have the job tomorrow or not... or wether he will have the support from the people around him. The truth is, we are so far behind the top four that I hardly can see us ever catching up.. but if we are to try, and I believe we should... we need to be patient...consistency doesn't grow 'over night' (not defending our recent performance, cause it's been utter shit)... but if the fans stands behind the team and tries to motivate and see the positive things, that would be faaaaaaar better than constantly criticizing....

Some posts on these pages are very true and very down to earth Expecting us to preform better than we do is b***s***. To be honest, at times I hate Allardyce (the games that we loose), but before I know it, luckily enough, I still believe he's the right man to turn things around.... given time

you know, recently I've actually come more and more in favour of us just sacking the whole team, and go out thhere in real Ambbrahmovich style and create a superside:)

Well, you know we are simply not better than that anyway. People go on talking about the so-called strong sqd. we have on the "sheet", as that should matter... it's on the field that matters:)

Sunderland plays pretty decent compared to us atm.. they are creating chances... we are just running around the midfield trying to catch the ball from the opposition.

As I've said... out of the three teams to be relegated.... newcastle should be one of them... an utter shitty team from NE...

haha, this is patetic play... newcastle belong in Championship

I'd say loan him the rest of the season with first option to buy

He is not the player we need. I'd rather have a closer look at th £3 mill rated Adrien (18) from Sporting CP

everyone always says this, and have said it for the past 3 years, and how many times have we lost 5-0? we got a point last season did we not. Much better side than they were last year. mackems.gif what relivenace does that have to my point mackems.gif Because your saying that year on year people say we'll get thrashed and we never do, i was saying Arsenal are a far superior side to what they were which will obviously make it harder to get a result. i'm saying our fans have an attitude whereby we always assume when we come against a big team in form we'll be run over, and have had that attitude for the past 3 years. how many times in those years have we been beaten by 3 or 4 goals, because i can't remember many. we'll give it a good go imo but probably lose. we're not a pub team, we're a team with premiership players able to compete in this league. We are the most inconsistent team in the league. Even Derby play more consistent than we do (although they consistently loose).

everyone always says this, and have said it for the past 3 years, and how many times have we lost 5-0? we got a point last season did we not. Much better side than they were last year. Who? We are better? One should really THINK so, but I afraid we aren't. Or maybe it's just that Allardyce keeps playing the girl OoP? I thought the "they were" bit would have given you enough to realize i was talking about Arsenal. You'd think so... Needless to say, NUFC play like women. Crappy team work, anticipation, passing (list is long). Given time, BSA can turn this around, but he needs to get some cash in januar FFS.

watching Villa - Gunners really makes me realise how f**king trashed we will be against Arsenal.

Sweet.... >

We are not gonna sack Sam. It would be pointless! Stick with him, and support him. New owners, new manager.. lets have some faith and patient

Good post, mate!

yes, well..as I've said before... he done quite considering he didn't have much money to spend (compared to west ham and man city) Some of you guys are some impatient...I'm shocked.. again, if you want success you need to be patient. The squad, in genera,l is below average.. nuff said.. Instant success, is just instant..

Do we? Agreed

It is Sam who tells them to play long balls again and again and who is supposed to organise the team and picks the wrong team yes, long balls.. don't understand that.. but the team.. *lol*.. this is women football tbh...give the man a chance for god sake... I think he has done quite well with his signings, considering he wsn't given anything near as much money as Sven in City.

omg.. playing pretty terrible... but got to say, it is not allardyce out there on the pitch, guys... we're s imply not better than this atm, you can say whatever you want. but I won't b on SA back until he's had atleast a season or two...
