That maybe the case but that laclustre feeling was still endemic of the rest of the squad too. I thought Jonas was great as was Enrique at times, he just wasn't the complete beast he usually is and certainly the rest of the squad were off the boil for for whatever reason, drink, late nights, injury, less training, being Nicky Butt, what have you.

Well no. 1 is Andy C.... ...and no. 2 is Andy C ...no. 3 is Andy C ...and no. 4 is Andy C OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH We all dream of a team of Andy C's (Clap clap) A team of Andy C's etc.

Bit shite how the ticker tape ended up by yhe gallowgate corner and the lap of honour was a bit hit/miss. Had a great day though despite me dad fuming over his lost bet and danny simpson. That said my mackem mate lost out on a nearly a pony because it. Couldn't help but feel bad. HA SMB!!!!! Definitely overdone it on the celebration side after last weekend. Enrique was a shadow of his usual invincible self

He's the hero Newcastle deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.

Good stuff. We can feed him an extra slab of raw meat when he gets back to his cage tonight.

a qurater of which would probs be in our squad but don't get a mention. Bought it as a one off as its usually top 4 oriented and needed a read on the train. Steve harper is at 11. Staylor at 13. Alan Smith has 'his rightful place in the premier league' due to starting many a magpie attack and Nolan has a double page tribute

Four four two have him top of their 50 best football league players. Smith and Best also feature.

Aye. I'm planning for that. I'll lump for a hard fought 1-0 win. Hoping for a 3-0 dry bumming of the trees to seal it though

11 people voted for 1-4? i know theres gonna be the odd joker but I can't see past bottom half so lumped for 17thish. Anything better is to be a bonus...but lets get promoted eh?

figures

All about my bobby moore mexico '70 shirt tbh

2-8 win. Like someone said before, who knows. This league is baffling

Circa. 9th November 1986. Had the 'best dribbler' bibs and the lot. From near cov but my dad's from south shields. Doesn't seem like I had much choice tbh looking back, although I had an alarming obsession with Micky Quinn in my early youth

Yeah . Had to climb a big pink castle to find me way oot.

Gah. Great time to take a long weekend in Disneyland Paris then. Haven't seen any of it. Fuckin brill. No number of photos with wooody and buzz are going to cheer me up now We're we the nads like?

not many are saying its simply down to picking the best eleven. But its consensus that he doesn't even do that. Can anybody really truly justify the choice of midfield that has been used consistency despite their apathy and ineptitude? I do understand that he has some shit to contend with working at this mess of a club in the first place but sometimes he just baffles me to the point I can't be constructive anymore.

Get that text as well eh? Am I the only one who couldn't give a shit about England? It's bad enough supporting newcastle without stressing about that top 4 love-in

That speaks volumes that does. Even the chronicle gave him a 4 or a 5. Pathetic, lazy journalism

Butt got a 7 in The Mirror anyway. give me strength....

Completely lost faith after that apalling selection at the weekend. Jury was still out me with hughton until that. The man doesn't have the ability to identify the best 11 for the job

Who now? Oh sod off. One to many darren bent references above methinks got the better of me

Wicky wah, wicky wah....wicky wicky wah Best, Darren Best, Desperado, Tough striker....and so on Maybe not

'fuck off leon best you overated arrogant temperamental inconsistent twat.' - The facebook status of my cov superfan mate. oh dear.

Shame. Now he's in turkey he won't get his telegram from the queen. Adios Mandela.
