Brainwashing the fans is a true masterstroke from Ashley tbh, he is happy to take the stick as it takes the focus away from the manager and the players.
"They know their football in the North East"
If anything tbh, we go into the derby matches a bit too pumped up, we made some rash challenges and I don't have a clue what colo was doing for the yellow card he received.
Idiot on the radio saying that the 'forrun' players don't know what it means to the fans etc. Our two best players today were sissoko and perez ffs. I don't think motivation for the players is a problem, it's the negative tactics and frauds such as Gouffran that hold us back.
What has happened to us ffs, we are playing against Sunderland at home. They are a pretty shit team and regularly circle the drain at the bottom of the league season in season out. We should have few worries about this fixture. Fuck off pardew
