Tiotes Witch Doctor

Second goal was offside by about half a foot, good call really. First goal was a joke, definitely at least 3 yards onside. Cisse still very worrying, his finishing and decision making is terrible.

We are shocking, the tactics are shocking, Tiote is a mindless fool who should not be starting games for us anymore.

We probably have near enough a good enough squad depth to actually be competing now along with a lot of quality players, I think for most though the faith in Pardew has been dwindling as the season has gone by. I'm of the belief that you can have a team of cracking players but if the manager isn't up to the task the team will still struggle. Having said that though I havent looked forward to a game so much in a long time and I cannot wait to see Sissoko in particular tonight. Hoping they hit the ground running and we get out of this mess ASAP.

Had a particular laugh at a mackem at work who kept mention how many "GEEFTS" he had left to buy for christmas. Fucking horrible dialect.

This should be another huge boost for players and manager going into tonights game.

he was a classic winger in france but they don't look for the cross played in but the pass played in. Even more reason to play him then as I would prefer all of our crosses are direct and across the floor, because we cannot win a sausage in the air at the moment, just have to look at the corners to see that.

Thats because he talks out his arse. Funny because i live in the middle of cramlington, and can assure you that nobody has ever mentioned Colo etc being round here. Oh yeh, apart from the time they were in the Blagdon, then went down to the Plough for a session. Dont talk wet please. Sorry mate didn't realise you were the don of Cramlington and everything comes through you. Same for you. You confirmed your stupidity with your 50/50 source on our Debuchy transfer. Lad has got the odd thing spot on in the past which is all I meant by 50/50. I'm just going to keep these things to myself from now on, so I don't look like a tit. No offence intended.

I'm not I just pass on what I sometimes hear. I can see why that Colo post seems like a troll though, bloke at work (who I know quite well) seemed adamant about it though, otherwise I wouldn't have even mentioned it. I'm not a regular poster as such anyway.

Oh, its from a movie, yeah... I knew that.

f***ing hell. That GIF looks like a grown man punching a baby in the face. How the f*** is that 'funny' How is that NOT funny?

Bloke from my work from Crammy says Colo, Jonas and Enrique used to frequent the bars in Crammy and reckons he knows of the lass hes got pregnant, 17 year old. I'm not even lying, he could be mind, but maybe not.

Think his chant should be similar to the Boumsong one when he was here the BOOOOOOOOM. whenever he touched the ball but only this time it should be MOOOOOO-SSSAAAAAAAAAAA. No? ok then.

Just as much chance of that as anything else tbh, would also explain the secrecy.

The fact that his issues still remain shrouded in secrecy would suggest to me that hes definitely got some bird pregnant like, I seriously doubt its anything other than something along those lines and if it is he should be ashamed of himself. If this is all true and he really is refusing to play for us then hes absolutely lost my total respect, would have went down as a club hero when he finally retired but now all he will be remembered for is being a coward, and the man who inflicted more Williamson appearances upon us.

Krul Debuchy Mbiwa Coloccini Santon ------Cabaye Anita Perch------ Gouffran Marveaux Cisse Elliot Saylor Haidara Obertan Bigi Shola Ranger

What happens now then? Is there anyone else in Argentina he could leave for who might want him? I'm glad that it looks like hes staying but will his head/heart be in it for the rest of the season, especially with him being our captain this could be a particular concern. Then again is a "head not quite in it" Colo going to be any worse than Williamson?

If we lose this we're definitely going down, instead of just probably going down.

Not surprised in the slightest. No bodies in and one more out.

I'd find that crazy to accept, surely given our form and position come January that selling Ba and bringing in Debuchy will never help save our season from the threat of relegation. We must sign a quality centre back and striker else we risk going down again. Pardew can't be trusted to get us out of it without support and I don't trust our best XI to stay fit and do enough to get us the points as things are. This would make sense for owners who actually had the slightest clue of how to run a football club, and a manager who is able to put this across to the board firmly without being a puppet. Pards' puts a lot of emphasis on players returning from injury to ease the pressure on himself but also in a futile attempt to divert attention away from the fact that we probably wont bring anyone else in, and the fact that he reiterates this point so much would probably mean Ashley is willing to take a gamble on us getting out of trouble when our players come back, rather than heightening the chances and spending money on a few bodies through the door.

Lad who told me has got things right and things wrong in the past, perhaps I didn't phrase that too well.

Have heard from a 50/50 reliable source that the Debuchy transfer will be the only incoming transfer of the window, which makes sense that it wasn't completed until the Demba money was in the bank. And also that one more outgoing is expected. If true we're as good as down IMO, 1 in 2 out, great sense that.

'Young side. Didn't have enough. Hoped to get to 70 minutes and let Marveaux create magic but the situation got away. Perch injured, Shola sent off. Disruption put us out of kilt. Young players gave it all but shouldn't be representing us but that's where we're at. Sending off is a nothing challenge. Ref should have given him benefit of the doubt. Bigi and Anita were best players. Tav played better centre half. Rob Elliott was solid but we didn't have enough big players on the pitch against a Championship side at home. Marveaux is in good form. He changed things and gave us more presence and allowed Anita to play more. Expected them to sit back but it didn't happen. Disappointed we're out (apparently) and wishes he could field a stronger team. Fans brilliant. Supported throughout. We have to sustain our Premiership status (admitting he threw the game?) Colo, Cisse strains blah blah blah. Jonas, Cabaye and Taylor MAY be back next week' Dear me, get rid ASAP.
