No I didn't, I was commenting because somebody said "Went to applaud the Celtic fans, and on the way back cupped his hands to ears when the Ranger fans booed." I don't see anything too wrong with that considering what he's been through. You'd think he'd try to help matters by keeping a low profile for a bit.

Agreed, he deserves to have more bombs sent to him for that. Did you see him mate? He was working his ticket and there was absolutely no need for it.

Would stay at the club I'd supported since I was a kid. Had this discussion with my grandad yesterday and he disagrees. He won't blame anyone for going where the money is, looking after their family in that respect, etc. When I said "is 30 grand a week not enough to get by on like?" he said "Well you don't know how long you're going to be earning that, anything could happen". That's a good point tbh, but it doesn't change how I feel about it mind. £30k a week over the 5 year contract he just signed will be a lot more than most of us will earn in our lifetime. You calling my grandad a gobshite?

The bloke is an idiot,all week people have been trying to calm down everyone in Scotland over this game and goes and incites Rangers fans like that,I've got no sympathy for the bloke. Agree. Did anyone hear Le Tissier co-commentating that Chelsea match the other day? Absolutely hilariously funny, he's terrible. "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Ohhhhh. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh".

Ridiculous that like.

Erm, how long have you been supporting NUFC. For the last 20 years NUFC have put in good performances against good teams and instantly fucking up against shit sides. Get used to it. Should forget that we were playing against a team fighting for their lives, should not expect 3 points, based on form yes we should have been but in reality is different. Been supporting them a canny while but I learn from our fuck-ups, clearly you don't. We're going nowhere under this clown.

:kneejerk: It's not kneejerk though, neesy - a loss today wouldn't have even been the end of the world or owt and I know that. I'm making a wider point about something I've felt for a while. That we're going nowhere with this chancer in charge. Would be absolutely delighted to be gloriously proved wrong, and it won't change how I support the team when I go. Was just saying. He had no excuses today in terms of players available and they couldn't follow through after a promising start. And it was clear that Ameobi was having a mare after about 15 minutes but he stayed on the pitch until 91 minutes in, and got subbed for Kuqi n'all. Ever thought it's the players fault at all, hence why under Hughton as well and Pardew performances have flucturated badly The fact is you like a few NUFC fans have an agenda against Pardew because of the way he was brought in and it's an easy excuse for you's to bring out whenever we play badly. Should remember when under Lord Hughton we lost badly to Blackpool at home when Hughton had a better squad available to him as well, also Pardew has a worse squad than what we had available last season as well. You're the only one basing this on one game here, neesy. I don't have an agenda against him, I just don't rate him which I think is allowed. It's becoming increasingly apparent that there was no need to change manager. I personally think he'll be regarded worse than Souness was in 12 months time, but yeah we'll see. Mate, you've been digging against him since he was appointed and all the time I was talking to you previous to Fulham game . More apparent that we didn't need to get change managers is open to debate, I would say pathetic hammering's in successive away games to Bolton and West Brom was mighty cause for concern especially the latter. Pardew should only be judged once he has had a summer in the transfer market, when he get's the chance to improve the first team especially upfront. The fact is with a strike-force of Shola, Lovenkrands, Ranger and Kuqi how anyone can be expecting miracles is beyond me. There's nothing fucking wrong with the fact I've been cynical about him since the day he came in. I'm there to be convinced. I was annoyed that Hughton got the gig when he did but he did a good job under the circumstances and won me round. You're right about the summer and as I say I hope he proves me wrong. I wouldn't put money on it though because the guys seems like a complete div. Also, I don't remember us talking about this before the Fulham game and I think you're playing on the fact that I'm always smashed and never remember anything I say to anyone.

Also neesy, your point about blaming the players. It's his job to motivate the players. Today wasn't make or break but it was an opportunity to get another 3 points on the board and he couldn't get an almost full-strength team up for it. We're drawing too many games since he came in. Also in the Man U post-match interview it looked like he was wearing lipstick, which is unforgivable.

Loss.

Watched this in Tynemouth. One of the most brain-dead performances I've seen from us in a while. After 20 minutes we were massively comfortable then we started fucking about in our own half. Completely hoyed it away today. Also never saw Ameobi do one thing today that wasn't worthy of me pointing and laughing at him. I've made my mind up on Pardew now and I can't stand him. Not arsed if that makes me a whinge, or a bad fan, or owt like that - I don't care. He's shit and he hasn't got a clue. I remember when Hughton got sacked and the only point I wasn't massively pissed off was when I thought we might get Martin Jol in. Employing this div was a sideways step at the very best and I'm fed up with him already. I've a bad feeling about next year now. PS: why young Neil Ranger didn't get on the pitch today I'll never know.

Thanks for that.

Reading about that fans' award:

Yeah, just read that they could pick out of the players of the months for the season. They still could have picked Nasri or Berbatov though (or Torres).

I don't see why none of our lot got a sniff at any of these things when you've got Bale, Parker and Meireles winning them. Carroll not even nominated for the young players award. Meireles is a daft one since he was shit before Christmas from what I saw but I suppose he's scored a handful of eye-catching goals since then, which is apparently enough. If that's true that David Luiz got second place then it's pathetic. They should just bin these things now.

Raul Meireles. Holy fucking shit man.

Bookings aside, wor Cheick should be ahead of him.

Don't see what Heather off Eastenders has got to do with anything, but there you go.

No chance, he'd think it was below him. Look at how the cunt goes on man. Talking about how he's still got a big goal in him. He's no idea that he's done I found that talk of the 'big goal' so annoying. The game is about your team winning matches, not about one player grabbing the glory. If he's lost touch with that, he's better off retiring. He's always been like that imo, he just used to be good enough to get away with it. Always harping on about Michael Owen's next goal or Michael Owen's next cap.

Bad time for Bojan to be inj. Red inj or orange inj?

That you should try harder. Impossible.
