Looking tubby.

I don't understand though.  Why aren't they tired?

Coloccini shouldn't be near the team, I'm sorry.

Yanga-M'Biwa and Williamson was working perfectly.  Pack up Colo and send him back to Argentina on 1st January.

Is Santon injured?

Just gotta rotate all them left backs. 

As usual, Pardew plays his same 11 no matter what until they lose.  He doesn't know what's right, only when it's working. And once it breaks, he doesn't know why, or why it worked in the first place.

Game over.  Zero points this season when we concede first.

Time4Change are meeting again this week.

Our issue is that proper organisation of a march takes time getting council and police approval.  Perhaps a static demonstration can be organised with fewer restrictions.

We'll know tomorrow, but it definitely wasn't a one-off, and we hope to have a presence at every home game in some capacity.

True.  Although I think there's a breadth of opinion that Ashley has lost the plot and Pardew should be replaced that hasn't been there for a long time, if ever.

Our most advanced draws in the League Cup in the past ten seasons:

05/06 - R4 - Wigan (A) - lost

04/05 - R4 -  Chelsea (H) - lost

03/04 - R3 - West Brom (H) - lost

 

I know we're s*** and that but f***ing hell.

 

Have we been past the QFs since 1976?

Nope.  Last time we got past Round 5 was indeed 1976.

It was announced in the summer that we'd got Category 1.

I say announced, I read that it had happened.

The last three games I've been at since April, I've seen Newcastle concede 12 and score 2. 

 

And yet some people are just content and go "Awh well, maybe next week."

 

Not even a single song against Ashley or Pardew today.  No pressure whatsoever.

 

Most people, laughably, seem to have blamed it on Ben Arfa inside the stadium.

 

 

What?

 

All of it, the Ben Arfa thing especially. Wasn't having a pop.

I suppose it does beggar belief.

Take away the Fulham games and look at the state of our home results since we beat Stoke at the start of March.

 

0-3 Sunderland

0-6 Liverpool

0-1 Arsenal

0-0 West Ham

2-3 Hull City

 

An average crowd of over 51,000 to see these great results and a couple of nonces on here want to argue that we're overracting in wanting things to change. Honestly.

It's incredible, really.

Anyone else not received their tickets yet?

The worst one ever? Many saw it coming but it is still a massive letdown/disgrace.

 

Words like 'disgrace' have become so overused in football that they don't really mean anything anymore so it's hard to describe just what is going on at NUFC without sounding cliched.

 

It's a complete scandal the way NUFC are run but the media's reluctance to stick the boot into any of the Premier League cash cows basically means we're on our own and there's absolutely f*** all we can do about it.

Nail on head.

United For Newcastle ‏@UtdForNewcastle 50s

In #NUFC's last two summer transfer windows, they have spent £9.7m of the £1bn spent by Premier League clubs (so far). Less than 1%.

All the Kagawa talk has made me realize that Zaha has yet to take the pitch for them, too. Should have been allowed to remain at Palace on loan, playing PL football every week. Unvaluable experience.

Played in Community Shield, didn't he?

I don't honestly see Ashley selling for less than £25m+ 

You could easily argue that a French international midfielder with 3 years left on his contract, in his prime, with the new television revenue is worth that.

Ashley'll want the most money possible.

If Ashley does sell for less than that, then I dunno how anything works at this club anymore and will throw myself into the Tyne.

What's this about Taylorbeing doubtful?

Strained his fingers tweeting bollocks for twelve hours straight.

f***ing mental that like - aye let's play our full backs on the wings, our winger up front, give a debut to an unproven left back and have a centre half at full back.

 

All because Jonas has injured his arse.

Gazette reckon Cabaye & Debuchy are wanted by PSG. Wouldn't be at all surprised to see both leave together or a window apart but gazette just churn out s*** they hear from other media outlets.

L'Equipe are reporting that.

Could we ever get a home draw?

We've been drawn away roughly 80% of the time over the past eight or nine years.
