I somehow imagine it being such an enormous shithole. What kind of city is it though? Always imagined Middlesborough being the s*** hole of the north-east. Isn't Middlesborough like an industry town with just bunch of smog? They're both grim, but Boro has something resembling a city centre. A massive, hugely successful university and due to all the heavy industry it actually has character. It has an identity to it that Sunderland completely lacks. Having lived in Boro I would strongly disagree. TBf Sunderland got the shit bombed out of it in the war. It's not a great place but Boro/Teesside is streets ahead in terms of being a shit hole. The place didn't exist until the late 19th century apart from a few villages. Someone once said to think of the north east like this: Boro is the arsehole, Sunderland is the armpit and Newcastle is the brain centre. Pretty accurate from my experience.

Martin Keown on BBC sport: "I'm worried for Newcastle, Alan Pardew has been on the phone a lot from the stands and since he's been suspended, his side haven't been the same."

Trying to desperately get shots of people leaving on TV, followed one bloke along the concorse for a bit and he walked straight past the stairs down, so they desperately tried to find a couple of people leaving again

And another one The bit in books and the few bits before it.... Pretty much us

Interesting stuff from the secret footballer

Some interesting theories bouncing around on the sunshine coach Either way this looks like it could turn into a shitstorm

Rolando Aarons I bet he's glad he's moving toward the first team, there would only be so much you could take of Beardsley wandering the training ground shouting "Rolando, Rolando" is his voice.

It's on TF as well. http://www.true-faith.co.uk/mike-ashley-campaign-presents-magical-misery-tour/ Fair play, good idea imo. I'm hoping this isn't a NUFC fan in the comments for that article

That's disgraceful. Ox should get the ban, it was going about a foot wide the ref made the call. Maybe they could award us the goal Man City?

Beeewwwwwww at the end from the pink seats.

Rubbish blowing around everywhere

Same reason Citeh get away with every thing. Oil money > Every thing. Like disallowed goals that were clear goals?? Exactly why I can't be arsed with football.

I know this won't be popular on here but Pardew has every right to pull the FA up publicly over that Hart incident. Why wasn't he sent off? Fucking disgraceful double standards.

Having read the books I would say that either this cross paper group of journo collaborators has either a very vivid imagination or is bestest ever mates with a footballer.

Two wrong moves, stoke and Portsmouth. Wife didn't settle apparently. He comes across quite well in the books

Said this a few pages back. If it is Kitson then in his second book there are quite a few stories on Pardew, none of them complimentary.

Lovely stuff said without a hint of irony.

http://www.thesecretfootballer.com/articles/the-secret-psychologist/15796/pardew-sets-a-shocking-standard/ Also, if you believe that TSF is Dave Kitson then in his second book there is a fair bit about Pardew. An interesting bit is about the manager crying as he was leaving a club for another club (the assumption is when Pardew moved to West Ham) in front of the players who thought he was a fake.

Yep

Missed that obvious foul on Remy just now. Not a fan. Consistently s****. Is that that Garrett twat again?

Nailed on yellow card mate. Disgraceful reffing.

What a nob. How many times has that s**** happened man? Meyler was a tit, but f*** me he's supposed to be a manager ffs what he did was outrageous. 5 game ban at least.
