we will throw everything at 8th place.

Yeah, season's a dead rubber now and if we go full strength we might accidentally end up in the Europa League. Treat every game between now and the end of the season like a cup game. By which I don't mean in the way teams facing relegation claim every game is like a cup final, but just grudgingly turn up and put 11 players on the pitch. aye

Save Alans Season. too late bye.

What is he trying to say? something about Sparta

but John Anderson says all is well and you are ungrateful..........

Because if Newcastle got to a final then the fans and City would not look forward to the day and/or enjoy it? I don't understand how this is a small club mentality? Also we have a 40k plus average for league games? I agree some of the cup attendances have been s**** but still... Hey, you've fluked your way to a cup final, good luck, enjoy it. The fact you're taking a lot more "fans" to Wembley than bothered to turn out in Sunderland for the semi against Manchester United and more than twice the number who turned out for your FA Cup 5th round tie does however smack of small club mentality, whether you admit it or not. Everyone knows that Sunderland fans and the sycophantic north east media have a whole catalogue of excuses for your embarrassing attendances but the most widely used one for the FA Cup tie was probably the lamest yet. You were all saving for a big day out in London :-) . Using that kind of mackem logic then Man City and Arsenal fans who sold out to 48,000 and 60,000 respectively on the same day mustn't bother with Cup finals or away trips to Europe etc. Getting to a cup final is a fluke? I must have missed something. I've already agreed that attendances were shite in previous rounds but I still don't get why it's a stick used to beat clubs with. The fans who turned up deserve their final trip. The ones who didn't will have had their reasons for not going. As I've said before I was there and I couldn't give a shit if I was the only one in the ground. What I had an issue with was the fact that we have a small club mentality because the city and fans are getting excited at the prospect of a cup final. the week before a cup final and on a mag board, fuck off, etc etc.

Is that it? fucks sake, I thought they must have been doing it to Lambert or Villa staff of something far more than just messing about after the goal.

whats going on in that picture?

As these past pages have shown, these points that do "not absolutely hammer" Pardew are nothing more than hot air balloons supported by a mixture of hyperoptimism and contrarianism. This is why everyone gets agitated. I don't even see the point of this argument. Nothing beyond "Stop being so negative, you buggers!" People are dissatisfied with Pardew because Newcastle United plays bad football. The protagonist of this argument has admitted as much. If we were qualifying for the Champions' League with George Graham-style 1-0 wins few would complain. Mid table mediocrity would be tollerable if we were playing enjoyable football or going on cup runs. When your football is both ineffectual and unpleasant its pointless, as are consequentially all arguments in favour of the current manager. kernt

Never in 36 billion years. There is only so much anyone can take - even Pardew. It will be the day he loses his list of excuses probably. Even though we know he is crap he can get a job somewhere else pretty easily. The media don't really criticise him and he was Manager of the year not so long ago. Unless the debt rumours are true I am sure he would eventually pack it in if it got too much for him. Tbf, I don't think he'll ever run out of excuses. FFS, he even blamed Science for the Cardiff loss. He thinks we're stupid and will accept any sh!te excuse he comes up with. Interviewer: "Alan-Villa put 10 past you in the first half. What's your response?" Pardew: "Jellyfish. we was done by jellyfish." Interviewer: "Jellyfish? Really?" Pardew: "No. Not really." ..."it was the Hadron Collider. No, sorry, it was ITV's Splash. Er, I mean the iceberg what sank the.. T........ " ad nauseam.... *Interviewer sighs and leaves Them damn Jellyfish, hope we don't get done by that one again! no more shoals!

missed a goal , typing a response to ITV almost missing a goal.

after dead fans, the north sea, and being locked up for ferry burning and roller noncing- 16k is pretty good tbh.

Itsd Miss Sunderland BTW- the Sash and sunderland beach wear give it away.

been practicing 3s on a note pad and soaked through?

Tbh a couple of drawers in that run would have won us the title. But on the other hand it was a an all or nothing charge to the title I think we lost by 4 points. Mind Man Utd won something like 11 in 12 towards the end, keeping clean sheerts galore. I personally think everyone connected with the club just wilted a bit under the huge pressure of trying to win us that first title since '27, even KK himself. It stands out as our best ever season since '27 though in terms of the league or top division. Cantona 1-0 for a load of that run in. Remember him scoring in Fergie time at Loftus Road for one. If only he had a bigger ban for the Karate kick at Palace.

if only peter schmiechel hadnt played like fucking superman at SJP.

can you imagine owners like chelsea or City and Keegan in charge man it would be fucking fantastic.

did his defending round the oppositions box.

82-84 and promotion were a great couple of seasons, great atmosphere in the ground, and the away trips when almost unlimited fans were allowed to travel. 84 promotion season- 3rd highest supported club in country despite being in lower division, only bettered by Man u, Liverpool.

him being Fat?

yep- went to games with my dad in the 70s- and supermac was my first football hero- but When KK signed in 82 was when I first started going to games with mates, getting season tickets and going to away games. Was there for his first game back in 92 Took my daughter to her first game when he returned against stoke in the Cup Game.
