    Alan Pardew

    Could fill an entire book with Pardewisms. Granted it'd be the shitest book ever written.

    Alan Pardew

    Truly incredible comments. Quite possibly his worst ever. Absolutely zero ambition from the man, concerned only with collecting his paycheck and will do just enough to guarantee that.
  3. Wigan for me. The McManaman challenge and subsequent handling by Martinez and Whelan is enough for me to want them Pompey'd.
  4. Milan-Roma should be a good match. Inshallah.
  5. Looks like they tried, but failed, to match the blue on the kit with the Wonga blue. Either do an obviously different shade of blue, or match it perfectly. Otherwise, I like that slate color.
  6. You are clearly in the "I like pardew" minority. As much as I like the guy (Jonas) he has been one of the reasons we have been so shite this season, more so because our wanker of a manager could never see it. Except what joeyt said is completely correct and understandable. And your first sentence is trash.

    Really hope the bottom of the table stays as is. Wigan, QPR, Reading down.
  8. You must not have watched Newcastle this season. Shake-up doesn't equate with overhaul. But we do need to make some significant changes.
  9. Deserving of a national team call-up tbh.

    And this is ESPN's deal with MLS:

    Yeah NBC has it: Though I'm not sure if NBC Sports Network is available with basic cable packages. I know my folks get it on DirecTV as part of their basic package.

    Who has MLS? ESPN, right? They probably deserve to lose that too. NBC does an MLS GOTW starting this season. It's not bad tbf. And MLS.com streams one free game live every week. But other than that, it's hard to get quality MLS on TV. I know either MSG or YES do the Red Bull games, so it might just be loads of local coverage but no national outfit? No MLS Game of the week kind of thing? Referring to ESPN? Local coverage is definitely there for most markets. TSN covers Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver really well, Philly gets CSN I think, etc.
  13. I'm very excited to watch MYM develop at CB. Watching him play you can tell he's just oozing with talent. Was arguably the best CB in Ligue 1 before the transfer. Once he gets settled and figures out the pace of the PL, he'll be a staunch CB for us. Took Colo some time to acclimate as well.

  15. Williamson was costing us a goal every other game (at best) for the part of the season he was in the team. Not unlike Taylor in the last 2 home games then? Fair point, neither are good enough if want to be successful long term. Exactly, Williamson gets more criticism as he's an easy target compared to S Taylor. Well i do think Saylor if much better, not saying a lot that though mind. Fucks sake man, Taylor's the least of our problems. He's more than good enough for us with the right partner. Well our goals against would say different. Colo and someone else for me. I'm still of the opinion that our GA is more reflective of the defensive philosophy than personnel. Could've had Kompany and Vidic at CB and we would've conceded a ton of goals under FORTRESS NEWCASTLE.

    They're looking to build demand. Flooding the market with PL games is sure to increase the popularity of the sport, certainly more than one or two ESPN games a week. Tons of potential for the PL in the U.S. This deal might actually be harmful to MLS. MLS games are awesome live, but the quality of televised PL games easily blows away anything MLS puts on TV.

    Harry Redknapp

    He and Taarabt are sure to have suitors this offseason. Hoilett too perhaps. Not great suitors. He's a PL-quality AM. Not a world beater, but he can hold his own.
  18. This. Outrageous to suggest Williamson is a better player.

    They know the demand is through the roof. They make loads more by restricting access than they would by giving y'all a package like this.

  21. Just stop now. Leave the thread.
  22. Couldn't bare to watch that shower of shite today, so don't know how he did. But unsurprising that, as with Simpson, he's much less hated when he's used as nothing more than his maximum worth, a reasonable back up. I feel good with Williamson as 4th choice CB, Simpson back-up RB. That's the kind of depth we need.
  23. How do you make it this far in life, to this level of celebrity, without someone handing you a pair of tweezers.
