Frazzle

Chelsea pen was a joke and Villa, Blackpool and Bolton with Smith and no Tiote...

And if Barton wasn't an idiot against Blackburn Hughton wouldn't have that problem. So it's Barton's fault that Hughton picks the wrong players in his absence? It's Barton's fault for putting his manager in a position where he has to pick from a pool of player who are sadly probably not good enough. What the hell did punching Pedersen achieve other than helping us to drop a few more points in the last few games. Same with Colo today and his inevitable three match ban. The players are hardly helping Hughton in this respect. That's all well and good. But you can't wrap Hughton in cotton wool and claim it isn't his fault simply because his options are limited. He's the f***ing manager, not a poster on here struggling to post a starting Xl in the pre-match thread. People expect us to lose to superior team, even badly. What people don't expect, is to see the same mistakes to be repeated and points thrown away before the first whistle is blown. It's not like Routledge and Best are the answers to our prayers though is it? Bring those two in and get beat and everyone would be saying bring back Guthrie and Shola. The fact is that the squad isn't big enough/strong enough yet and you wouldn't expect it to be at this stage of Hughton's reign. Hughton will take blame throughout the season and so he should when he deserves it. But people have to accept this season wont be plain saling.

Most are going off how average he's been in the Premiership when played at centre half. Taylor was probably as good as Colo in the first of last season, or if not, very close. And before this season Colo hadn't proven himself in the PL either.

Some of these responses are pathetic. We've just been promoted, we haven't got a big squad, we had players suspended. We are going to lose games this season, we are going to get tonked this season. It's all about staying up. Yes Im pissed off but some people need a reality check ffs

Eh? I'm saying the people saying this should f*** off. Who's saying that? Look back through the thread

Not that strong. Should the mackems have sacked Bruce after the 5-1? Or should we have given Hughton a ten year contract after the 5-1? It's one match. No and I can't remember saying that either.

Eh? I'm saying the people saying this should fuck off.

Agent Nolan, Willshittison? Fuck off and support someone else

"Have done this job for longer than I care to remember. Can't think of many players who have embraced WHOLE NE more than @DB11TT" What does that even mean? Because he plays for Sunderland and lives/shops in Newcastle?

Allardyce took over a team who had finished 13th and spent millions, you'd expect a bit more from that. Hughton has came up from the Championship with barely any money to spend and is doing his best with what we've got. We haven't even played long ball all season, and have played good football at times. Allardyce doesn't know how to get a team to play good football with any players, Hughton has shown with limited resources that he can get the team to play still. Madras how were the goals against West Ham from long ball football? Both were crosses into the box after we'd worked the ball up the field. Both were decent goals.

Same, class poster.

From apparently not being good enough for the Championship to starting for England within a year. Not bad.

Who came on for Henderson?

Alright Andy, lets go get a drive thru on the way home.

Capello should've given Henderson his first cap tonight.

Southgate is just bitter because he had to wear a bag over his head after Euro 96

That's racist. I thought that was Desailly's face? Can't tell the difference.

Blaydon Races I reckon.

Southgate: Carroll shouldn't play Desailly:

You're criticising Shearer for not sticking up for Barton whilst calling Lovenkrands 'Lovencrap'?

Lansbury to solve Wenger's keeper crisis?
