Some of the replies are absolutely unbelievable. That place really is stuck in the 70's. I'd love to say I've never heard similar things from Toon fans/people from Newcastle but I have. Some people are thick cunts, unfortunately. The North East as a traditional working class/left wing region should have a greater empathy towards people of all backgrounds but plenty of people have an outright racist mindset. Work on a building site anywhere in the NE and you'll find it, both throwaway comments and outright hatred.

Cisse should be playing over Shola every day of the week.

Disease

Anybody who thinks starting Shola over Ben Arfa is an acceptable decision touches kids imo.

Shola

Players with 6 months left are a possibility. Thats about it.

Fernandinho been coming good recently, great upgrade on Barry

Getting daft now mate.

I'm sure we could make a lovely heat map to show this. One massive red spot on the bench where ben arfa sits. So lazy, doesn't even warm up on the touchline.

The top 8 is probably as strong as it ever has been. The bottom half is obviously populated by a lot of dross, but that is the case in every league throughout world football. That's why they're bottom half. Exactly, if we were any position below where we are now that would be below par. Hull are 10th ffs.

8th is par for this squad. The league is shite.

Thats because those 'long ball' stats are an absolute load of fucking jizm.

Struggling to see the point of a pass percentage stat for a player who's responsibility is to create and damage the opponent directly.

The rest of the league is fucking wank, fact. Hull are in 10th.

Within reason, yes. Other than Southampton the rest of the league below us are shite.

Is it really any wonder he always plays down the club he's at? He knows he's punching way above his weight. 9th highest attendances in Europe 3rd biggest stadium in the country 20th richest club in Europe Can name an XI of full internationals for major nations ...manager who was previously sacked by a League One club. Lets spot the discrepancy. The more people tell themselves we're a hopeless fucking charity case that should savour every point the cosier his position gets. I hate him. I enjoy it when we win but he's fucking shite. Not really much else to be said. Other than he's also a cunt. Put anybody in charge and they'd get us to 8th in the league.

Cajun making me hate Gouffran

Thought the home atmosphere was awful today

Agreed, would sell.

If we get overtaken by Southampton now Pardew deserves to be sacked.

Don't think we were particularly good. Deserved defeat based on our general play. Effort was there but we were just poor.

No surprises whatsoever, surely the line-up everybody expected.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH GOOD LORD

Tan is the kind of villain the Prem needs imo
