Neil

Considerably more good than bad.

Didn't see it, did he play badly? Just the goal really. Passed it straight to their player and they scored a few seconds later.

They're 1 place above us in the league yet the football they can produce is of a whole different quality. Jealous? Yes.

I think Baines proved yesterday why I think he should be in there.

Felipoo

Been a good player for a while. A lesser version of Carrick, for some reason been given a load of abuse for not being good enough. I'd take him, certainly.

Said this 2 weeks ago, he swiftly scored against us after 30 seconds. Twat. Rubbish twat.

Samir Nasri, with your face like a disgruntled, French Paul Scholes.

This is the strange thing. You're having, by anyone's standards, a very disappointing season (domestically). But I bet you're still seen as an attractive proposition for good quality managers, so I agree with you that you can do better than Martinez. Fwiw, I think he's a good manager and is without doubt an upgrade on Pardew but it doesn't mean he should be seen as the pinnacle of who you can attract. Someone like Jol springs to mind, if he decides to leave Fulham.

Big fan of Nastasic. Think he's had a quality first year here.

:lol:

It has an impact on domestic form, there's no doubt about that, but by qualifying for Europe you're showing your progressing. As usual, it's a case of close but no cigar, which is useless for a) attracting good players, b) keeping your good players and c) keeping your good manager.

He's absolutely fucking shit.

Lee Robson: "Newcastle fans saying manager Alan Pardew must go. Yes, it's been a bad season, but how long have we wanted stability for? Every team has a bad season."

Only Wigan matter. I was going to say. Only 1 spot left, and the team in that spot lost today, and the team directly above them will very likely lose this weekend too. Not a disastrous weekend at all.

As I said a few weeks ago, this season is the first time I think Moyes seriously will go. We were never strong contenders for the CL, always outsiders, so I wouldn't buy that as the reason. But that defeat realistically ends our hopes for 5th as well, which is the biggy. It'll take us getting at least 10 points out of 12 (2 away games being Chelsea and Liverpool) and Spurs to implode. Fucking chewed off with that showing. To borrow a phrase from here describing our game at Goodison, what we did in this game was we sought out the lass, bought the rohypnol, followed her home, checked the surroundings, then ended up having a wank in a bush. Not a clue how to break down an admittedly resolute Sunderland defence, but a generally shit one.

Naismith is truly one of the most useless footballers I've ever seen. Should be said Dowd is giving Sunderland a good bumming here but we've screwed ourselves over earlier in the season dropping too many points.

Or, quite simply, down.

Rose looks a quality left back.

This half btw could define Moyes' future.

No they haven't. It's been an extremely shit game with no one being all over no one. We've been fucking woeful. Deservedly behind, they want it more.

Fuck you Neil!
