14/15 Cisse banned, tiote injured and midfielders in defence 13/14 had Remy, cisse, tiote and a semi defence (and ben arfa) 12/13 had Cabaye, cisse, tiote, ben arfa and a defence Not sure Pardew would have done much better than Carver, he is still the better manager. He did in the first half of the season no?

Good.

I know what your saying but cmon Valdes is one of the best keepers in the world. Starting him is no hardship.

Thanks a lot. Yeah, the team is finishing the season in great form. I honestly wasn't expecting such a change of fortune given how we were playing a mere five months ago. Those "showdown" talks seemed to do the trick.

He wouldn't have played any of them. Considering he plays Cabella i think he would, well Hatem would anyway. You really think Carver would essential take Hatems side over captain courageous?

He wouldn't have played any of them.

Didn't he say once he'd given it his all and tried everything he'd step aside?

More from everyone's favourite Geordie: http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/john-carver-rejects-claims-newcastle-9270391 “I think we were in control of the first half. Let’s not forget we have one or two young lads out there and I will use Perez as an example. “He wasn’t supposed to be our mainline striker for the season but he has been. “He is developing and will be a good player for this football club. Sometimes the situation gets to them and it might have with him.” Carver also stated that he coud not have started with Papiss Cisse. He added: “We didn’t have many options. I couldn’t have started Papiss. “I think you saw when Papiss came on there wasn’t a great deal going for him and that’s the reason why he didn’t start.” Occasion got to Ayoze today

Well there's a surprise. "Aah just cannit undahstand it!" Given his comment you'd actually think it was a good first half performance and we declined badly in the second. The reality is we went from Very poor to abysmal.

We will lose, but so will Hull

Hull win and we lose next week we are pretty much down

Riv and raylor off

Cisse and aarons

Ne bother mate

Meanwhile raylor continues to strut his stuff.

Thought we turned the corner last week?

And they gave Bruce a new contract a couple of months ago

Good job Hull are as shit as us

Should have left him on, couldn't be any worse.

They won't appoint Carver. Last time we got too close to danger, Ashley forced Llambias out and brought in Kinnear. He will react to this season, and there are no long terms contractual commitments to the manager this time. What?

They won't appoint Carver.
