Exactly, we have no leaders on the pitch who can take charge when things are going wrong.

Straight down the tunnel the cowardly cunt.

I think this is probably the worst performance I've seen from a NUFC team since I started watching in 1985.

Ok, maybe he is gone now!

I don't.

You're not serious, man? The players don't deserve a bonus, but I find it astounding that you seem to indicate that the buck doesn't stop at Pardew for managing these players and building a team out of them. Pardew is an idiot but he hasn't taken a corner today, fluffed a cross, ran into trouble or failed to track a man. The players need to take some responsibility because they have utter bilge.

Fucking brain dead these players. Think it must be the ink from all their gash tats.

Fuck, that's it!!!! Mass walkout.

Liverpool will be able to put their shirts straight in the kitbag for next week, they've not had to break sweat.

Better make sure the vicinity around St James' is kept clear of horses at full time.

All of those players have technical ability, it's the easy things they are not doing: simple pass and move and pressing the ball.

Pardew: The players were tired from (watching) the Europa League Semi-Final.

I'm not sure he could spot a good coach, or even if he did wouldn't be threatened by him. He'd much rather have around him people he knows are below him and have no chance of challenging him. What brings you to this conclusion? f*** off muppet. RTGtastic A lot of the stuff I've read on here the past couple of days has been tbh. Depressing. It is fucking depressing, someone post that picture of Saylor strangling that disabled bloke. That always cheers me up for some reason.

What's delusional about that? He is a gem and he will be gone in the Summer.

I read somewhere that the only reliable indicator of (final) league position is players' wages. On this indicator alone he must be vastly underperforming. To look at the players he has had at his disposal this season and then watch the abject, clueless and pointless hoofing to no-one in particular is heart breaking.

Porto 3 Braga 1 FT

Porto 3 Braga 1 now 5 mins to go.

We can do this, the whole team seemed very disappointed after the first leg which translated into a nervy and sterile first half today. The effort in the second half and Cisse's late winner seemed to galvanise the team judging by some of the player tweets post match. We have some momentum and a never say die spirit. We are wounded and stricken with injuries, it's already been a long season for the players, many of whom are visibly tired. Despite all that we have belief and 50,000 Geordies behind us. Howay the Lads!

He oozes class, an amazingly gifted footballer.

Goal Wigan!

He must practice that in training because it looked a lot more difficult than the last one. Maybe we should get all of the defence practicing it, in years to come it will be a common defensive skill.

One of the best in Europe according to Pardew They are dog toffee, shame we couldn't give them a game. Not sure who to blame, depressing. Classic reaction. I get you're p*ssed off with the manner of the goals, anyone would be. But there's a natural tendency to think the opposition wasn't any good when you're blaming yourselves for a defeat. They weren't world beating, they weren't brilliant, but they were good. Their passing and movement was clearly superior and thus deserved to win the game. Despite that however the tie is far from over due to their very slack defending. But yes, can totally see why you'd be p*ssed off at how the goals came about. I watch them every week and don't rate them, I think a decent team would take them to the cleaners. In my opinion they are very average, bar a couple of stupid mistakes we could have been set tonight so yes I am frustrated. You should pop to Specsavers the next time you're over in England; they're one of the better European teams and have a ridiculous amount of attacking talent for a non-'elite' club (Spa, Ger, Ita, Eng, etc). That Barca team are generally considered 'decent' aren't they? I watch them rollover a succession of decidedly non-elite teams every week. When they play someone decent they struggle, yes they were great in the Nou Camp against a disinterested Barcelona but Barca swatted them aside in their own stadium and could have scored a few more.

What's the crack with the Northumbria police "spotters" hassling normal fans? Bunch of arseholes, picking on grandads and people minding their own business.
