  1. I actually read a suggestion to hassle his family get shot down as a step too far. It's not happening.

     

    This is blatant crisis management from this new specialist they've brought in. Trying to discredit the image of bitter supporters with a real case, and instead project the image of a bunch of limitless thugs.

     

    It's far more subtle and clever than the club's usual moves, hence I'm assuming it's this new guy from London.

  2. Ben Dinnery ‏@BenDinnery  6h

    AP won't risk Cisse "He's has been doing a lot of running, but he hasn’t actually done a lot of ball work - we can’t chance him" #NUFC

     

    :lol:

     

    Compulsive.

  3. He'll be back if Pardew goes, I'm sure of it. Whoever comes in to replace him will get an instant rise in popularity amongst (most) of the fans by bringing him back. And I think it's clear he wants to play for the club.

    doesn't seem like it, Bruce denied the existence of any recall clause before the match and why would he bother signing a new deal here when he could probably get much better offers to go somewhere else on a free with the bonuses of larger wages and nice signing on fee.

     

    I met a Canal+ journalist in The Strawberry who'd just been interviewing Ben Arfa's agent on Saturday. There's a recall clause between 1st and 10th January, but it won't get activated if Pardew's still here, apparently.

  4. Has anything like this, in terms of mass production of a banner/leaflets happened before?

     

    The Chronicle printed several thousand A3 copies of their front page last year, and Time4Change handed them out before the game.

  5. How realistic is it that Pardew could be sacked with the news exclusive to MOTD? As in had another club ever sacked a manager and revealed it on MOTD first?

     

    Brighton - Poyet

     

    Wasn't one of the Brighton team in the studio that day as well? :lol:

  6. Played in the Milk Cup alongside Rolando Aarons. Blew Aarons out of the water a few years ago, and got MVP for the tournament alongside some very, very talented players IIRC.

     

    He may not make it, because he is so very tiny, but the guy has a quality finish and good pace. He's not been injured, so can only imagine it's a confidence thing if he looks like he has nothing.

  7. France will probably win the next f***ing World Cup with an XI made up entirely of past, present, or future NUFC players while we sit in our homes wondering why we are fighting for 14th every season.

     

    :pardsbeard:

  8. Not a surprise. Serves Pardew and the hierachy right. We needed a deeplying play maker regardless of Dejong. That player could have stepped in. As it is now we are back to  Tiote/Colback/Anita with Sissoko playing #10. Lots of running, zero creativity. Worse still could play Cabella #10, which is fine.. but Gouffran and Obertan on the wings..

     

    Hopefully this isn't used as a get out of jail free card for Pardew when we continue to lack any creativity and get spanked over the next series of games.

     

    The most damning thing of all, is that his two ready-made #10 replacements in Ben Arfa and Marveaux are on loan because our manager doesn't like them.

  9. With de Jong out, a lengthy lay-off for Colo, or Janmaat, and that'll be that. We'll ship umpteen goals and score hardly any. He'll scrape a few draws, maybe fluke a win, but it'll keep getting more toxic. If de Jong is out for four months, Pardew'll be gone before he's back.

     

    Genuinely wouldn't wish a lengthy injury lay-off on any player, but if ever I was to, now would be the time.

  10. :lol: he may as well have named them after all that. It narrows it down to about 2 people

     

    :lol: Now listeners I have someone on the line who fears he may be a gay. He's married so he wishes to remain anonymous I shall only be using his christian name. I am talking to 'Domingo' in Little Oakley.

     

    No one's actually named the player yet on any forum/social media, so it seems to have worked okay. :lol:

  11. From United For Newcastle Facebook page-

     

    Heard some disturbing, but not unsurprising stuff about the atmosphere in the dressing room today, from a player at the club.

     

    For obvious reasons I can't disclose a source. Several things:

     

    1) While no personal animosity exists, Coloccini and Jonas apparently believe Pardew to be the worst coach they've ever worked under.

     

    2) Player doesn't even know where Jonas is.

     

    3) Player has been lied to by Pardew about playing time recently.

     

    4) Organisation at club awful.

     

    5) Atmosphere at the club means player wants to leave for own future despite being fan.

     

    6) Colo stayed for the fans. Whilst there were personal problems, he wanted out to get away from Pardew and the toxicity.

     

    7) Ben Arfa genuinely is quite unpopular in the dressing room, but that may well be down to his attitude due to being screwed over.

     

    This is just what I heard from a player. I'm not saying any of it is definitely true, but it's probably a higher chance than most papers!

     

    There was some more information, not hugely exciting but more laughable about the state of the club, but I can't repeat that as it may identify the player.

     

    That's a load of turnip. Sorry like

     

    It's not.
