Varadi

Has doubled his stake in Rangers: http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-owner-mike-ashley-7870780

Crisis. Managed.

The 5/6 widely available for a Swansea win looks exceptionally generous.

We're playing against team with a 35 year old manager who has managed about 20 games in his whole career and I have little doubt we will be comprehensively tactically outmanoeuvred from start to finish.

That thought has occurred to me too, Ashley will want someone ready to come straight in, plus sacking him with only 4 days to go until the next game wouldn't make much sense with a 2 week break to come. Would actually be typical of Ashley if we beat Swansea and he sacks him anyway.

They've put a decent team together there - Bony, Gomis, Sigurdsson, Shelvey, Dyer and Routledge will pass our lot off the pitch,

He was always going to stay for Swansea IMO - the 2 week international break is the perfect time to bin him.

what did they say? Keys talked a fair bit about our record - 5 wins in 25 games in 2014 being relegation form and said that Ashley wasn't really interested in the club and had just bought us on a whim but that if we can't shift the owner the manager has to go, the fans deserve better etc..

Keys and Gray absolutely ripped into him on BeIN Sports, think everyone knows it;s only a matter of time now...

I can see us being totally outplayed but sneaking it with a Cisse special - if he hits a hot streak again it'll be enough to save Pardew for the forseeable future.

4-0

Concede 1 more and they'll take our bottom spot.

They were terrible today mind, their only goal threat is from set pieces. Such a shame we're so shite so I can't enjoy it properly.

Very harsh red imo

What did Rooney do?

Your straw man's on fire. I like to think I've played a part

Chelsea and both Mancs all winning within 7 minutes. Most competitive league in the world

It does seem like he's talking directly to us

That was brilliant by Haidara

The bullshit lies they come out with are so pathetic man.

Pardew's current record: 1 win in 13, taking 6 points from 39 with a GD of -20. Over a 38 game season that would give us less than 18 points and a GD of -58.

It was only a matter of time before the in-fighting came to the forum

Came back from 2-0 down man, ran around a canny bit, had some shots and everything. http://mediabrewpub.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/not-entertained-meme-generator-are-you-not-entertained-is-that-not-why-you-re-here-37ff6c.jpg
