Atrocious again. Please lets stick to him being an impact sub for 20-25 mins, he's not bad at that.

Let me refresh your memory then. Second half against WBA in his first season here. We were 3-0 up and we ended up shipping 4 goals in 45 mins which cost us 4 places in the league and probably a few million quid. I can't remember the exact details but I'm pretty sure he made a few spastic changes in that game as well. Just in case anyone's under the illusion it was just bad luck yesterday. Good shout and yes he did

Yeah that left side was fucking woeful wasn't it, combine Santon's in effectiveness with Jonas who does what exactly? No pace, doesn't run at defenders, can't cross the ball. Combination of the two of them was rubbish down the left.

Starting to question how good this lad is. Thought he could've done a lot better for the equaliser and seems to get caught out of position a lot. Doesn't really offer anything attack wise down the wing either.

God I hope so, we need this car crash of a defender out the side....no pace, wooden, christ, please just get him out of the side. s**** It's unbearable to watch ffs

He didn't but that first goal wouldn't have come if we'd had a defender with anything approaching pace. Williamson got done, was always struggling to keep up and therefore failed to get into position to cut the ball out before the defender. In actual fact he just about got there but the ball went underneath neath ffs And did you see him trying to play offside for the second, marking nobody? I mean come on.

In fairness it's hard to know whether someone does or doesn't have a knock from the stands. It doesn't have to be an obvious limp for there to be something going on. Even Ando on Radio Newcastle said he thought he was struggling a bit. That doesn't exonerate Pardew at all but I'm just saying in this case......

His only hope if he is staying as it would seem is that he pulls his head out of his arse and does away with some of these ridiculous selections/tactics. Play people in their preferred positions ffs, Shola on the wing? :lol: I mean you couldn't make it up. If they were to sign Mbiwa (meaning Williamson is nowhere near the team), get HBA back in the fold and bring in another striker there's still enough dross in this league that might mean we stay up ridiculous as it may sound. But yeah I agree after watching that yesterday it just seems that this is a completely rudderless ship with a manager who a) seems to have been found out and b) whatever skills he had in sending the team out/setting them up have rotted away in the panic that is the increasing pressure thats getting to him. Like I said I've never seen anything like what happend in that second half yesterday .................

Just seen his bbc interview. So the fans weren't up to the logic of taking Cabaye off................well yeah many didn't realise he was injured..........but the bulk of discontent was for quite frankly ludicrous formations, tactics and other substitutions. Seems the fans response has got hsi back up so it's even less likely that he's prepared to look at himself in the mirror now.

I said to the bloke next to me in the Gallowgate just before half time "I just hope he doesn't do like he did against Norwich here and defend a 1-0 lead 2nd half".....................we both just looked at each other blankly when the true horror of the situation dawned on us

Why is he still talking about Ba ffs? To be honest he has the look of someone who feels like it's slipping away from him, looks lost, without ideas and completely downbeat and maybe on the way out.

He's definitely up there...............I felt sorry for him initially, now it's just turned to rage

Yeah Shola on the wing has to be one of the most ridiculous things I've seen like.

I just depresses me seeing Williamson stroll around out there. Sorry for the lad but it's embarrassing that he's still in the f***ing side. Desperately need a commanding centre half in to take his place.

Back from the match...... Shola right midfield!!!!!!!!!!!!! Takes Marveaux off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I'll let him off with Cabaye because of an injury) DEFENDS A f***ing 1-0 lead at home to Reading :kasper: :kasper: Lumping the ball forward 2nd half!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Granted first half Cisse shoud've buried a couple of chances but DEFENDING A 1-0 LEAD AT HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Couldn't believe some of the stuff I saw in that 2nd half!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whats the point of Jonas thesedays??????? .........oh and GET THAT c*** WILLIAMSON OUT OF THE SIDE FOR GOOD PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just back from the match. 9, I've never seen anything like that second half

Fuck me we better turn up today otherwise after fielding something like that he's losing me

christ

Good luck, just be yourself and act natural. haha

Next up on soccer saturday with J Stelling and the lads

He might do well but they're still weak as piss at the back so his signing far from guarantees their survival.

If we start floating free kicks into Williamson to try and head I'm going to run onto the pitch from the Gallowgate and go for someone, anyone :lol:

Going to be putting my walking boots on for this to walk down to St James from Jesmond ffs

Pardew has the players available today to put Reading to the sword, simple as that. So it'll be the way he sets the team up and sends them out to play (hopefully ready to spill blood) that will be the deciding factor. And if he fails he deserves everything he gets in terms of criticism.
