Could we lose players signed in Jan? Thought there was a rule around playing for 3 clubs in a year (hopefully not a "daft question")

Every single player gets a second chance from me now. yes, even ginger

Obviously, but you do realise he would have stayed if we hadn't been relegated? For completeness: Benitez + no relegation > Benitez + relegation > No relegation + Manager Lucky Dip

Benitez + relegation > No relegation + Manager Lucky Dip

Wondering if they are delaying slightly to let the Manure/Special One PR die down....?

Roberts could be a good backup - Seemed pretty good to me, but may be a season too early for him

I prefer the player that's perceived to be lazy, but gets goals and assists over the player who gets stuck in and gets rapturous applause for doing things like putting in a slide tackle for a throw-in. How much they cost doesn't really mean anything to me anymore because it makes absolutely no difference to us anymore. How can you hate a player that gives 100% though. Its not his fault he is picked - the blame lies solely in the manager. All he can do is give 100% which he does. p.s. Was a hypothetical question. Topic is around hated player, and not sure how you can hate someone who gives 100%. My hate would go for those that dont give a fuck. (However, we need their goals blah blah)

Which is worse? Someone with loads of talent - costs zillions - but doesnt try Someone with no talent - cost nothing - but tries hard

And this in a shocking team that got relegated, where he didnt start every game, and he general targetman play beyond his years as a 21 year old. Imagine this guy with a few years of Rafa under his belt - he will be a massive handful

We need some kind of "Typical Newcastle" type thread, which is a parody on built up hope, then dagger to the heart. Typical Newcastle: Reckon Sunderland will win tomorrow and lose to Watford, and we will beat Spurs. Meaning the Villa result killed us.... "Typical Newcastle"

I wont how much impact it would have if the fans begged raffa to stay in the final game - posters - songs - the works.

Cheers all - chat again at the start of next season

on the positive side, reckon we will get 100 points in the championship

Wish we were relegated weeks ago. Its the hope that kills you

We need to risk all now. Cmon Lone striker in a game we have to win? FARK OFF

Mitro must have the runniest nose on the planet

Mike Williamson has a better touch than Cisse Cisse is making me miss Shola

Cisse needs to fark off now - feels like deliberate sabotage

Honestly - what does that actually even mean. Its such a pointless debate. The only measure of success is league table and trophies. Everything else is irrelevant.

As long as we have 11 plays on the pitch at 90mins, we will win this comfortably.

Not me. He is doing a great job, and is great as a backup, but will be exposed over a season...........and way too small. Bottom half hoofball teams target him - ala Pardew

If we survive, im putting £10 on us winning the league next year

If we get a second, I will scream until my throat gets horse, then ill get on the horse, go to the pub, and down 10 pints

FFS why? Because when we bring him on he normally changes the game in our favour and is an outlet to relieve pressure. I think he was referring to the poor match day thread etiquette of typing as if someone had scored. Exactly James. Apologies, I let my happiness for the sub get the better of me
