Newcastle United 0 - 0 Fulham - 13/11/10 - post match reaction from page 15
ChrisJbarnes replied to Nate's topic in Football
What I am noticing about us this season is that people seem to rate us. The Sky sports match report says "Fulham will head back to London delighted with a point" the general feel of the article is that underdogs Fulham came to a very difficult place and got a fantastic result. Although we aren't doing as well at home as we should be, people are taking us as a genuine proposition rather than the pushovers of the past -

Incidentally, Fulham have only lost 3 games this season. One of them against chelsea the other night, which was only 1-0. Hard team to beat. -

Home form is poor but we are still higher than WBA and Blackpool. Still 6 points off the relegation zone, and 7th. We're not world beaters lets be honest. I do however think we will turn the corner and get some good results. -

To whom it may concern, Imagine my shock, anguish and near apoplectic rage this morning when a cursory glance at your channel revealed to me the callous and factually incorrect use of the name ‘St James Park’ to refer to our stadium, when it is public and accepted knowledge that the stadia in question is now proudly renamed sportsdirect.com@StJamesP ark stadium. This is not only offensive to loyal supporters of ‘the toon’ such as myself, but also a grave injustice to our spiritual leader Mike Ashley. Mr Ashley is a fine, fine man whose commercial acumen and acute business sense in the face of adversity does not deserve to be besmirched in such a callous and derogatory fashion. Must I remind you this is a man who forged an empire, a phoenix from the ashes straddling the sporting world like a colossus, where others such as Olympus Sports and The Substitutes Bench have failed in the past. Alas, the ultimate result of your negligence goes far deeper – Mr Ashley has underwritten this name change at great expense. Failure to recognise the new title of the stadia can have nothing but a detrimental knock-on effect regarding sales of his merchandise. This ultimately will leave this proud man with no choice but to ask, cap in hand, that the consumer shoulder some of the financial burden created by yourself. While this may mean little to Mr Murdoch and other company fat cats in their towers or ivory, it may be enlightening for you to know that Newcastle as a city prides itself on its ability to look fashionable and sheik in reasonably priced Donnay polo shirts, and Lonsdale trainers whilst casually twirling Dunlop golfing umbrellas. In this age of financial austerity you can imagine the tragic results. We have already lost Geordie jeans, and with it our easy access to Le Shark jumpers, and I fear what further economic strains may do to this proud city. I trust you will deal with this serious matter with the utmost urgency, or I may have to take this up with my MP, and quite possibly Jeff Brown from Look North whom I have on good authority is equally as appalled by your actions as the common man. Good day to you Sir, Reginald Theodore Gaddafhi Read more: http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=534476&page=18#ixzz13mb5EglC

man u 2-2 wolves

Chelsea are aiming to win the league. If they come 2nd they have failed. Newcastle are aiming to survive. If we finish 17th, we have succeeded.

More established..? How many years were NUFC in the PL before Stoke managed it ? If Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal or even, never let it be said, Everton, were relegated for one season, would you then say Stoke were a more established side and expect those sides to drop points to them ? OK, so we are not those teams but we have a much longer presence in the PL than they do, we have much bigger gates and we have been in the CL twice as well as regular Euro football in the period between 1994 and 1997. There is no comparison between the 2 clubs and when at SJP, we SHOULD be able to beat these teams...just as we expect little from games at the Top 8 right now. They will finish above us, as will many other teams. It's a shame we lost, but it was a poor result and not time to panic yet. Adjusting from the championship to the prem takes some doing so it's not a suprise to me that we are inconsistent.

If that is his comments/justifications...then he has clearly not learnt his lessons. Yes Chris it is good to have goal scorers on the pitch but could you not see that HBA in the middle (replacing the knackered Nolan) with Jonas on the left would have been more of a threat than having two immobile strikers 'supported' by the lumbering Nolan? nolan got his chance at the end, which if he had scored would have justified Hughtons decision. unfortunately- he fluffed it.

when's he back?

poor result but we're still 10th in the league

not Hughton, which is a breath of fresh air

Carling Cup fourth round - Arsenal (h) Pre-Match Thread
ChrisJbarnes replied to Decky's topic in Football
We were never going to get an easy path to the final. It just doesnt happen. Arsenal will play some reserves now, as opposed to if we met them later on. We have a chance against anyone at home imo. If we lose, we go out and dont waste any more time on it. however, if we can beat chelsea away, we can beat anyone. that should be the mentality. -
I've just come back from the Sukru Sarcacoglu stadium where I witnessed Fenerbahce v Besiktas! The only other interesting stadium is Estadio de Luz (Benfica).
