Right back in relegation territory now folks, if the other results today stay as they are.

Late fitness test people should not start. He should have been on the bench, since we have another two week break coming up and he'd have had time to 100% recover. Fuck knows how long he'll be out for now.

For fuck sake. If he wasn't fit he shouldn't have started. Well done Pardew, you utter knob.

Howay the lads!

Agreed. He's off to Liverpool instead. You can be such a prick at times. You impressively manage it on a constant basis. You don't like the owners, you think the club is going to spontaneously combust and all good will turn to evil. We get it. Now please, for the love of god, shhhhh. I've sat on the fringes of this forum for 5 years and only NE5 surpassed the tedious predictability of the rehashed s**** you post on the football boards. You are a walking advert to ignore the entire United for Newcastle campaign which is a real shame. This. And I'm part of the campaign. STFU.

I reckon 2-0 Stoke. Not being a doom-mongerer, this is just exactly the type of game we like to come away disappointed from.

He's utterly woeful, from what I've seen.

Sarcasm or not, the Japan thread is not funny.

It's Kadar's birthday today as well.

Wow...

The further away he is from our medical team, the better. Are there any good physical rehabilitation centres in New Zealand?

Judging by these comments, I'm expecting: Harper Campbell Williamson Coloccini Simpson Ferguson Guthrie Tiote Nolan Ameobi Best

Referees clearly having a "Most controversial incidents per game" competition this season.

...

Bollocks. Lovenkrands may be poor these days, but he's a model professional. Playing after the death of his father is commitment and professionalism Ranger I'm sure would never display. I adore Lovenkrands for that season in the Championship. Problem is, he only looks good when the rest of the team are dominating their counterparts. We haven't had that this season, for a number of reasons. When we have, Lovenkrands normally nicks a goal.

Harper Simpson Williamson Coloccini Ferguson Guthrie Tiote Nolan Lovenkrands Best Ameobi Subs: Krul, Perch, S. Taylor, Richardson, Newton, Airey, Edmundsson Assuming Jonas, Enrique, Ireland, Barton and Campbell all fail to recover in time.

I've heard nothing about that, I thought we were paying part of his wages. Ireland's father said that it was part of the deal that we didn't pay till he was on the pitch.

Magnificently put together, tbf.

Please: Harper Simpson Williamson Coloccini Ferguson Barton Nolan Tiote Jonas Ameobi Best Subs: Krul, Perch, Campbell, Ireland, Guthrie, Lovenkrands, Kuqi I don't even want Saylor in the squad. I'd actually rather Perch cover RB than Saylor after that abject performance, and I'd rather Campbell cover CB.

BBC: There are a few boos at the whistle, which might be for referee Mark Halsey for his failure to send off Alan Hutton. I know letter of the law says red card, but if it makes the game more entertaining, which it probably will, surely we can forgive Halsey? WTF?

So we should have had three reds to Top 4/London teams today... And none given? Can you imagine if Barton did any of that stuff? Life-time ban.

Some incredible rolls in the middle today after that tackle

I don't mind Webb as a referee, but he's always useless with Newcastle. The standard of refereeing in English football, especially EPL, is absolutely horrendous.
