Mondial Sport come up trumps again. http://www.transfermarkt.com/mondial-sport-management-amp-consulting-sarl/beraterfirma/berater/2106 Actually a bit scary and worrying how Mondial Sport manage so many players, former players and players we players we have been linked with.

You haven't watched many of our away games, have you? As for the first line. I can kind of see your point. But even that fraud Pardew, would actually grind the occasional result out away from home. We've fluked a win against Bournemouth and beat Spurs with a last minute winner. TBF, at least we played well in the second half of that game. Apart from that, last night, was how I see us play away from home most weeks. The Everton and Chelsea games are still fresh in my mind and it's been going on far longer than that. I think we've known each other long enough across a couple of forums over the years for me not to have to answer that question. I'm not arguing the away form has been anything other than horrendous but tactically that was as bad as it has ever been for me last night. He's made dodgy decisions in the past like the 3 at the back v Watford away but a lot of those times he was hamstrung be selection. He tried something, it didn't work so you can sort of see the reasoning and move on. He had a number of better solutions last night and he completely bottled it against a side that were there to done. I watched that nonesense for seasons under Pardew and simply can't abide it now. He has to go. Fair enough. We must have seen different things, then. As for me, apart from the Arsenal game. I can't really remember any away games in the last few months, possibly even for the entire season? Where we haven't looked toothless, spineless and clueless, in equal measure. TBH. The performance that still resulted in a loss, from that Arsenal game, doesn't even look so great now. They have been shit for quite a while now and only won 2 prem games since we played them at the start of January.

In his defence, he has apparently been playing through and ankle injury this season. Sounds like he was a last minute decision for last night, as well. So with some of the gutless wankers we've had in the past, it's nice that he wants to actually fight for the cause and play through injuries. Not really helping if he's going to play so badly, though.

Bournemouth will beat us this weekend anyway. They are a far better footballing team than we are. They remind me a bit of Swansea when they were first promoted in terms of having a defined plan and style of play. They know what they are and they're well drilled. How we beat them away, I'll never know. They played us off the park. I agree with that and all. The problem is, I can see us sneaking a win or getting a draw. That will be good enough to keep him here.

Pretty much my thoughts, as well. Plus I'll win £80 if we sack him, so it's a double bonus.

Been hot and cold for a while and even when playing badly, he was still our only attacking threat and would create chances. For quite a while now, he has been absolute dog shite. His first touch and ability on the ball in tight spaces, is horrendous for a top flight footballer. Always just tries to run through people and can't cross for shit, either. He just looks so disinterested and tends to just go through the motions. When he was clean through the other night and let the defender get goal side of him I'd be tempted to drop him. But you could say that for half of the team and I don't even know who we'd replace him with?

I couldn't believe the commentator was going nuts about how good the goal was from Shaqiri. I thought straight away that it had taken a huge deflection and even then, I thought Blob should have saved it. It was straight down the middle FFS. This cardboard cunt just stood there.

I think Dummett and maybe the centre backs, are the only ones that can actually come away with any credit from that. TBF, Lascelles and Taylor had very little to do. But they targeted Dummett a fair bit and for the most part, I thought he did alright. As for the manager and the rest of the players :gm's patter:

Awful. He gets absolutely fuck all in the way of service. But he looks overweight to me and often makes the wrong decision. He regularly seems to drop into someone else's space. Like the ball will be going straight to one of our players, he seems to think they won't win the header, hold it up or whatever. So he just runs straight towards them, gets in the way, or just leaves a big hole behind him, when the ball is eventually flicked on. He also seems to have a knack, of winning a header and then not knowing where the ball is. He looks so lost and clumsy at times. Finally, his play acting is absolutely pathetic. Throws his weight around like some sort of hard man. Then goes down like a sack of shit and screams at the slightest bit of contact. Like a poor man's Diego Costa. Despite all of this, for some reason. I still kind of like him. I think he's been thrown in at the deep end and he is usually completely isolated up front. Playing for a team that don't create chances. Hardly conducive to a successful season.

Absolute cunt. Getting towards Pardew and Carver levels of hatred. What the fuck was our plan? Like every away game, we just punt the ball up the pitch, try and attack with Sissoko and Janmaat and try to keep it tight at the back. We created our first real, genuine chance in the 92nd minute. After he just threw players on, in a desperate attempt to get something from the game. What entertainment. Elliot was time wasting from about the 30th minute and all. The fact is. He watched Sissoko stink the pitch out and never thought that maybe he should take him off. He brought Riviere on, to do what exactly? Hold the ball up so we can cling on to a 0-0? He started Gouffran, another player that shouldn't even be in the matchday squad, the same as Riviere. Colback and Shelvey starting in centre mid is actually painful to watch. They're probably the most immobile pairing in the league. No Saivet, Perez or Aarons in the starting XI? Wijnaldum was marginally better than usual, but still can't get involved enough to actually influence a game. It was all wrong from the get go. Then, when we actually had a chance of nicking something from the game. Due to the conditions and Stoke also being equally as shite. His answer is to bring on some absolute shithouse, who seems to be allergic to scoring goals. He never makes changes until it's far too late and when he does, often gets it wrong anyway. He sets us up wrong every time we play away. Hence the pathetic record. Fuck it. End the season now and relegate us. Like a lame, wounded animal, we want putting down.

Yep. Gambled on Mbemba's fitness against Everton. That went well.

Yet more weapons grade horse shit being spouted by TCD. Standard.

Going back to football. These fuckers are going to get out of it, yet again. Allardyce will get them to grind enough points out and they look far more likely of fluking some results, than we do. 4-1-4-1, though. With 3 defensive minded midfielders They may well stay up. But fuck me. Having to watch Allardyce football and that setup for the foreseeable future I almost feel sorry for them.

I guess they'll just throw Byrne under the bus and use her as a scapegoat. She's the only one that knew, of course

Armstrong did it the other day Cam Newton being a prick and doing it seems to work. Lingard in particular, looks like an absolute weapon when he does it.

People calling Atlético Madrid, ATH-letico. A lot of TV presenters do it and it's always annoyed me.

Their answer FFS "Business speak. Business speak. Hot air. Hot air. Guff. Guff. Guff. The club identifies where it has gone wrong and then works towards the solutions." Fuck me. They're not doing a very good job of it, are they? Since Hughton, we have been involved in 3 relegations scraps. One of those, is currently ongoing and may result in us actually going down. I think we've finished top half twice? 5ht and 10th. The 10th place finish flattered us massively. I think we had the standard Pardew losing streaks, where we were battered to nil. Plus yet two more derby defeats. I've only skimmed through the minutes. I've never bothered reading them before. I don't think I'll bother again.

Fair play. They cost me £100 off a £2 acca. But I didn't realise Sevilla were 3-0 up from the first leg! N oway would I have bet on Sevilla, if I had realised. I checked all the aggregate scores beforehand. So I must have missed it or read it wrong.

It's not just opinions though, is it? You seem to try your best to come across as smug and condescending. Plus, you almost always seem to be saying the opposite to the majority and you just end up trolling threads. I'm done whining about it, mind. Like I said, I'm sure you're a decent bloke. You just often come across as a complete bellend on here.

I'm sure you're a great guy in 'real life.' If you're not acting out of your character on here. Then I can't imagine you have many friends and I'd wager you get into a lot of arguments.

I think we'd have quite a large number of fans, going on like pricks. I'm not sure there would be a ground wide celebration, though. The only other time I've seen such passionate celebrating, was the 5-1 against the mackems.

Nice mention of him being a 'London boy.' Geordies hate all Cockneys, don't you know? Awful write up.

They didn't. It was just funny as owt to them. TCD talking shit, yet again. They did care. They were partying in the stands, hugging each other like they had won something important or just avoided relegation. They were going nuts for a long while after the final whistle. Full of hate and anger before the game, as well. Throwing shit from those steps that you walk past, to get to the away end. On top of all this, the way they went on afterwards, suggested that yes, they did care.
