Yeah. It'd look better for him if he was 'undeservedly hounded out by those deluded Geordies', rather than exposed as the fraud he is.

At what point is Pardew in physical danger?

Hang on, have I missed something? What did the club do? I'm assuming it's shit because it always is, but do we know if he asked to return to Argentina? Cheers. Awful news about the cancer btw

"fills that gap" ffs it's f***ing Ronaldo. Who's been whooshed here? Can't tell which one of you. Or me. Taylor fell for my deep sarcasm.

You've been short of attacking options for a while, so Ronaldo fills that gap.

I'm choosing to believe it. Loaning him was a last minute idea anyway, and we know how much HBA has dug his heels in.

Yay! Another mongoloid

I almost went with Rafael over Evans, but the latter was less unfit. Tempted to bring in Di Maria for Hazard but I cant do that to Eden

Despite the claims that Pardew is 'safe', we're in a far, far better position than a week ago, when nobody even glanced at us. The progress has been remarkable, even if it hasnt quite gone all the way yet.

Dreaded vote of confidence - who knows what'll happen after the Hull bloodbath?

Ahhh man, why all this pessimism? I liked it when we all thought it was hours away, or the Hull game at the very latest.

Pardew will be in physical danger.

Poisonous atmosphere but in a good way. If they're foolish enough to let him in the stadium, it'll be a match we'll never forget. Pure hatred.

Annoyed that Rooney & Mata scored just after I took them out, but Sterling for Mata will still prove to be the right call. Jonny Evans takes me up to a round 50

Just need a clean sheet from Evans.

Moyes' stock is at its lowest and he'd not require compensation. It must hurt to be an unemployed manager when the season goes on without you. Ashley has approached him before, right? It all makes sense.

Pardew's staff are falling apart. That can only be a good thing.

I'd love to get someone like De Boer or Galtier, but fear it'll be a Sherwood-type. Well....not 'fear'. He wouldn't be Pardew, so he'd always be a great appointment.

They all seem pretty certain, like.

Ben Arfa will probably travel with the Hull team too, despite being ineligible. Talk about lighting the touch paper....

I wish they'd hurry up and sack him so we can start winning games again. If he's still here come October, it's over for us.

44pts Costa was vice to supersub Sterling, whilst Duff sat on the bench with 8pts. Just Jonny Evans to go.

Brendan Rodgers is such a dickhead. In that case, it's been a low-scoring week for me.

Did Pardew definitely blame the international break? Because, by my counting, Southampton had 9 of today's squad on international duty, compared to our 8. Didn't seem to affect them though, did it?

Ashley will probably sack Carver instead of Pardew.
