No indication Mick Lowes has actually said this, so no. As much as I would want it to be true.

I'm sorry, but why in God's name has he not been booted into the Tyne yet? Am I in some kind of endless nightmare coma?

I'm not giving the club a penny until this guy's gone.

This. All of this.

Makes me sick that he's not been sacked yet.

Infinitely better than the Sports Direct crap. Doesn't honestly bother me that much, though I don't see why it's needed either.

Shearer, Owen, Martins, Viduka, Sibierski, Dyer, Best, Lovenkrands, Xisco, Luque, Ranger, Ba, Cisse. Shola's survived them all to become our first choice in this relegation battle...

I haven't seen his record, decent? Lost 9 games out of 108 in charge of Anorthosis, won 5 out of 6 with Olympiakos without conceding a goal (yet was sacked) and doing fine with Georgia.

We're actually cursed, surely?

Not sacked yet? Darn.

What's the away kit of choice?

We were terrible in the first half, magnificent in the second. Credit to Pardew for not bottling it and trying to protect the single point. Jonas was tremendous. Marveaux excellent. Simpson was screaming for the ball and trying to get forward the whole game. I think it's a great credit to the lad for showing such determination and passion despite knowing he's on the way out. Great to see. Sissoko looks like he's going to break and fall apart. Really needs a rest once we can guarantee safety.

Nervous as hell.

I'm not against doing a half in goal.

A lot of the BBC talking about it on Twitter. Would be amazed if it's true, even by Chelsea standards.

We'll defend all game and look to nick an away goal. Felt like crying when I read this. We are so predictable... your coach seems pretty confident though He's an idiot though.

His CV suggests that last season wasn't the norm, why should we go through another season like this one to find out what we already know? I don't care about his CV, mate. I'll make my own judgement. I find that pretty staggering to be honest. Bit like saying "North Korea are threatening nuclear war!" "Don't worry mate, it's par for the course for them." "I don't care about anything that happened before I last had a steak. I'll make my own judgement."

Pardew really ought to go at the end of the season.

If Wigan score, we're back in big trouble.

Any more evidence of corruption needed? The governing bodies of football are all corrupt. We accept FIFA and UEFA are corrupt, yet expect the our own FA to be free of that? It's naive.

Predominantly due to his distinctive head foliage.

He sure does.

I don't really care who's at fault, so long as they try to fix it.

Shall we start a Release Date Sweepstake?
