Like a new signing

I agree, I accepted defeat a while ago. It's more a strange degree of amusement at how ridiculous it's got as opposed to a raging inferno of hate. Occasionally the old blood pressure goes up but generally I'm more relaxed about things. He just continues to make himself look like a cunt and eventually he'll get found out, eventually.......

Pardew giving it the big'un. He doesn't even have Remy to bail him out this season ffs

woeful

I'd love to see Palace turn us over thinking about it

You'll always have us with Pardew in charge. Poyet absolutely has his number

He might be hampered by Pardews lack of tactics and our general poor play but I'm just starting to see this player as piss and wind. Gets a full head of steam up but doesn't really do anything with it, poor touch and doesn't stamp his authority on the game. For a bloke his size he doesn't get involved enough for me either and boss people about. Maybe he's just been Pardewed too but I'm not that impressed.

To be honest I'm not even sure I can be bothered to go out of my way to watch the matches with these kind of displays. It's just a continuation from last season, dull as.

A loss v Palace could really see him properly in the shit, he has to win this one.

Probably already wondering how the fuck he ended up in such a shit side Looks good enough to the point that he'll be gone for profit after 2 seasons.

Yeah I find it all extremely bemusing that the press have been banging the "big spenders Newcastle" drum, "Ashley has answered his critics", "dark horses Newcastle", "lots of exciting new attacking options"

Sure the press might have made a bit too much of him but I think he's been decent so far. He's the least of our worries ffs

Problem is the lad might have something but immediately it's all down to him, loads of pressure and he's extremely isolated up front. We don't have any other options so the lad is really going to start feeling it soon, a ridiculous scenario as per usual at the club.

This, it was dull as dishwater

This. It was more of the same basically but then I wasn't expecting a great deal. I was pretty bored throughout, at times just ended up chatting to people in my local with half an eye in the game.

Ffs, that's ridiculous

Never seen a striker where you were just so confident of him scoring in front of goal. Lethal in the air, deadly on crosses and clinical in one on ones. I remember how much defensive work he did on corners too due to his heading ability. Literally used to take defenders apart,

Yeah this is what I'm interested in today. I think we'll learn a lot more today about "where we are". If we lose this there's already real pressure going into the Palace game, on Pardew especially.

Goalscorers are by far the game's most valuable commodity, and as such it's virtually impossible to apply our ridiculously limiting transfer policy to them. We dropped very lucky with Ba and then Remy. Spot on. Plus as our ambition is squarely focused on finishing bang on mid table why bother investing and take a chance. If we're struggling badly come December they'll look into "options" come January. No ambition = no desire to spend unless relegation becomes a real threat.

All the usual waffle which essentially amounts to "we won't put our hand in our pockets"

It is amazing he hasn't needed a liver transplant. Your liver can function with no apparent detrimental symptoms even at 20% of it's capacity but once you go under that 20% threshold you're screwed basically. Sadly he'll die one way or another fairly soon, be it illness or suicide. Tragic really.

Have serious reservations about Dummett.

I heard him on the BBC radio earlier, we're not signing anyone else.

Can see Tiote going.... Still desperately need a striker and centre half.
