geordiesteve710

I had no idea either. Doesn't surprise me in the slightest, strikes me as exactly the sort that would volunteer to put himself in the firing line.

Same place as all their jokes- they've completely forgotten as it's been kicking about that long. I'm assuming "80,000 screaming geordies", "sid James park", "1992ers" "the wongadome", "ponteland airport" and "ya divvent undastand" (which, ironically enough, I really don't get at all) have been getting an outing this week as well. Same old miserable crack yet everyone on RTG will be pissing themselves as if it's fresh material like the mentally-challenged bunch of fucktards they are. I mean, even one year olds get sick of "peek-a-boo" after a while when the novelty wears off. Not this lot. I actually know where 'ya divvent understand' comes from, its some cringey 'we are geordies, pride of the land' song on YouTube. I used to work in Houghton and it would get played all the time as a p*ss take from both sets of fans. Thank god it was in the first 30 seconds, my poor bleeding ears couldn't take much more!!! And the video. Of course if you're panning across a scene of the quayside, bridges with Newcastle in the background, the obvious landmark to zoom in on is... the Tuxedo bastard Princess. Christ.

Good article, aside from the Sports Direct Arena jibe. "Hollowed out from the inside" just about perfectly sums Newcastle United up.

If he leaves it'll be a few miles south to hook up with his boyfriend at Palace again.

Still a despicable little ginger cunt but thought he was harshly done to by the ref for the second week in a row. Got a booking and Atkinson pointed across the pitch to indicate it was for persistent infringement. Not 5 minutes earlier the same referee had made a point of pulling a Chelsea darling to one side to beg him not to foul again, or he'd be forced to think about maybe disciplining him due to persistent fouling. I don't like Colback, but why wasn't he afforded the same liberty as the opposition player??

Did better than expected today, I thought Remy's pace might fuck him over but coped ok. When he got radgy at Mbabu getting wiped out at the end and went to protect his younger player I thought he actually almost looked like a proper captain for the first time ever.

Because imo self preservation is the only real reason that stopped him from saying it 2 or 3 years ago. It's too late and it's for the wrong reasons. He can f*** off. So you'd rather he didn't say it? No, I'd rather he'd said it 2 or 3 years ago when exactly the same situation was happening under Pardew, but didn't because he was his mate/he gave him interviews. They're not interested in the club at all, they're doing it because they're no longer getting what they want from the club, which is ironic considering the thousands that weren't getting what they wanted while he defended it because he was. Means to an end, but Lowes specifically can get f***ed. Hypocritical twat has been ridiculing and shouting down any opposition to the regime for years. He's got what he wanted and what he deserves and if I thought for one second he was actually upset about the shambles the club has become, it would count as a genuine silver lining for me.

Iirc, wasn't Mick Lowes backing Ashley right to the fucking hilt after his "interview", shouting down anyone who was in any way critical or suspicious of Ashley's intentions.

Calm down, he might leave when we win something. Before you laugh and say it'll never happen, that includes qualifying for the Champions League.

But, but, he did an interview. The horse is doing back flips over the cart or something, and Mike's in it to win it and if you don't believe him you're the worst fan in the world. How's that all turned out then?!?

Unusual for .com to climb off the fence but get the feeling they've really had enough of McClaren.

I just feel sorry for Northampton. They must be really, really shit

Who's gonna tell poor Vern that this IS us making an effort?? I don't think I have the heart.

The Arsenal mainstream-media machine is again in overdrive to defend their beautiful boys in red. It's sickening in a way, but very amusing to see how upset and outraged they all are.

In the modern game, it very much depends who you play for as well. No way Rooney/Sanchez/Aguero are getting sent off for that, as the league needs it's best players on the pitch to sell it's product. NUFC and their radgie Serbian pantomime villain on the other hand are another kettle of fish, and referees are very much aware of this. Fwiw, I think it was probably a little more red than yellow, but certainly not as clear cut as the Arsenal fans and media lobby have made out. Going from some of them on my facebook, you'd have thought Mitro had maimed their brave soldier.

Went for Elliott as he's the only one who seems to think it's acceptable for a professional footballer in the 21st century to be fat as f***. In terms of being a crap, ineffective liability of a footballer, Tiote has regressed badly and in his present form is comfortably up there with the other names mentioned. So much mediocrity in that squad list!!!

I agree with most of this tbf. Comes down to this silly 4-2-3-1 again no matter how unpopular it makes,me on here. When it comes down to grinding out a 0-0 at Old Trafford or defending with 10 men in a situation everyone expects us to get walloped in it looks great , but like HF has pointed out not getting one shot on target is poor regardless. And as for Thauvins booking, the thing that stood out for me besides the trampoline antics is that a winger is having to track back and make a sliding tackle in his own half because macho men Anita and Colback have been overrun again. Why not play 4-1-3-2? Because if 2 dms can't protect a back 4 then we might as well just play with the extra forward regardless. 4-2-3-1 really isn't the formation for us.

Lovely red-shirted, champions league team, even the odd England international, always backed to the hilt in the national media innit. What's not to like/be biased towards from a ref's point of view??? Also, anyone know how long Coquelin's gonna be out for and what hospital he's staying in? We should probably send him a get well soon card or summat... Actually forget it, he'd only feign a paper cut and we'd all get in trouble.

BT Sport? I thought I was watching MUTV. Had to,laugh at the first sentence of the half-time analysis. "A good first 15 minutes, but again it's all fizzled out and been disappointing since... [long pause] for United fans." Coverage very much geared towards the Asian /Irish overseas market.

Brilliant today, hopefully a much needed confidence booster. Worth noting though, as others have said, that the game was played perfectly to his strengths, no big striker having cross after cross whipped in to him, so no aerial duels to contend with, and as we played so deep there was no chance for anyone to get in behind him. When it's all played on the deck in front of him/trying to play through the CBs he will look like a world beater 9 times out of 10.

Cos he signed for us and wound the mackems up?!? Seems a real shame, and very unfair, the Abeid never really got given a fair chance after that run of form last season, whereas lerkal lad Jack seems to be the first name on the team-sheet regardless. Best of luck to the lad, looking forward to watching him in the CL (if they have qualified this year, can't be arsed to check.)

Please tell me they're doing that thing where as a forum they e-mail the FA en mass in order to bring something to their attention and "get something done about us." E.g. Remy's appeal against suspension before the derby, trying for a points deduction because some tit hit a horse outside the ground etc.

Doesn't help when we're giving away players for basically fuck all. Selling Santon for next to fk all obviously stands out, and the Ben Arfa thing has been done to death on here, but if we send Cabella on loan then spend £12m replacing him from the SAME FUCKING CLUB, all we're doing is throwing money away. Then his supporters will say things like "he's spent £50m on the team man what do you expect from him?" When we've really just spent money on standing still, replacing players we've given away for next to nothing or to prevent players we bought on the cheap who aren't good enough from playing while we continue to pay them e.g Lascelles, Tiote, Taylor, Marveaux potentially, Colback/Obertan hopefully.
