If McCormick had fingered them first it would have been worse.

Does anyone know how you can download 'True Faith'? It says you can download it on their page but when you click the thing it takes you to some online publishing site and there doesn't seem to be a download option. I want to download it so I can keep it for later and move it across my devices without needing a net connection. edit: Never mind, turns out you click 'share' then the download link appears.

A very long and complex situation which basically boils down to the fact that the TV rights for the Premier League cost an absolute fortune to buy, the PL want to keep the prices as high as possible so they restrict who can show matches live. They've proven in other European leagues (cant remember which, I think Germany?) in which nearly every match is shown live on TV but it has very little/no effect on attendances. We get every game live here. Think they do in the US too.

You mean like that Shearer free kick against Man Utd?

And he looks like pacman

In the spirit of camaraderie and fraternity lets all just start finger banging horses.

Get Roy Keane to just stand there with his dog scowling at them. You wouldn't have another bad game if you came off to find a mental bearded Irishman staring at you in the showers.

Yep, this is what I always said about him. Thing I didn't realise was that none of it was to do with actually knowing what he's doing with tactics etc, it was just keeping the lads happy when someone in the team happens to win a game for him. How much of management is down to 'tactics'? I think someone like SMC is a good coach but perhaps a poor tactician and has poor motivation skills. Pardew seems pretty poor at everything but can whip up tremendous team spirit and is generally liked by players. I don't know TBH. How important a manager is in general is something that's hard to quantify. If you gave Steve Arsenal's squad he would get into the Championship quite easily I imagine. This season has raised a lot of those type of questions. The manager is just one piece in the puzzle of the club. We have an embedded culture of failure, and bad transfer policy, so any manager has a hard job on. Then again, to relegate a squad containing as many good players as this would seem to be something uniquely awful on the face of it. TBH I don't know how important a manager is, 'it depends' is probably the best answer. No way man Ian Fixed it.

My understanding is that McClaren wanted to sign a new CB but was told he couldn't. http://www.themag.co.uk/assets/lee-charnley-thumbs-up-newcastle-united-nufc-650x400.jpg http://wallpapercave.com/wp/Tm8xX1X.jpg

So true 'Newcastle are breaking, it's 4 on 2, oh, cleared, team X on the counter attack, they have 7 on 2, must be, GOOOOAL. 5-0 to team X with only 45 seconds played. Newcastle can take solace that it's an improvement at least. They've been tremendous.'

Most UK pundits haven't got a clue. They'll just say something that sounds vaguely clever and since none of the plebs watching have a clue either they lap it up.

Lucky your opinion carries the weight of a whelk then.

Probably thinks he's got nothing to lose in those games. Games where we might have a reasonable expectation of getting something he shits the bed.

Will you drink your own p*ss if he does? I expected that question. Yes I will. And yours if you're comfortable with that. I'm not particularly, no. One of the feet and arsehole guys would probably be willing though.

Will you drink your own piss if he does?

Yeah, I very much doubt the CPS would bring charges of this gravity if they didn't have some extremely compelling evidence to present.

After every one you think 'fucking hell, can't look much worse for him' and then it does

Was really looking forward to seeing him play in MLS

Give it all to Johnny Wilkinson to kick Pardew in the cock as hard as he can.

I can only imagine he was saying it in the way you might say 'if your luck keeps up like this you' ll be having swimming lessons with Barrymore'.

They spelt inebriated wrong

He's like Ronaldo on roids So....... Ronaldo then.

That doesn't get us a defender though, it just means we won't pay his wages while he's injured. We'll still be a man short. We need to cut him loose and sign a decent defender who isn't going to miss half of every season.
