That's one season you're talking about. Or do you think 12th, 16th, 10th is "pretty high up in the league"?

Aye.

LEFT BACK!!!

Haidara and even Dummett deserve a run of games before Santon gets back in. And the fact he has no f***ing left peg to speak of. Dummett is terrible, shouldn't be near a PL club. Santon still first choice for me.

This.

7th.

Inverted, aye. Both Adidas.

Bellamy was way more effective, for sure and for a period he was probably our most important player. Dyer had similar problems to HBA I guess. But then neither of them has/had the status Ben Arfa seem to have amongst Newcastle supporters, despite doing way more for the team (Bellamy). That's simply not true. Ben Arfa is moreso because it's ongoing and not ten years ago. Bellamy was absolutely worshipped amongst those who could see what he was worth on the field and it upset me for years afterwards seeing him play for others. I was very much in the Bellamy camp but there was a sizeable proportion of Newcastle fans who backed Souness 100%, and offered some of the exact same arguments - bad attitude, nobody likes him etc. Morons then and morons now. Wasn't it like 50/50 in the Bellamy-Souness feud though? I don't remember Bellamy chants game after game, maybe my memory is failing me.

de Jong will score goals, Riviere will score goals, Cabella will score goals, Chucky, Cissé and Sissoko will score a couple of goals. We need a central defender.

Sort out the fucking dots man!

Pirouettes galore.

We do need a CB though.

That moron is the reason we play Gouffran on the wing, its not like we don't have far better options than him. Exactly.

Just realised

Any relation to Don Hutchinson?

1-0 Ipswich

Love Mick McCarthy Aye! (Guess somebody has to post that gif now, can't be arsed to search for it)

Howay Ipswich. Always had a soft spot for them.

Whilst I disagree wholeheartedly, it's not just the football aspect of Alan Pardew I have a problem with, it's his total lack of respect for the football club, its supporters, its history. Unlike the rest of the managers in the division, he has absolutely no interest in the club being at all successful or even interesting. He's a leech, hanging onto a once great institution to feed his own ego whilst bringing it down to his level so that he can remain employed. That's why I can't support the team whilst he's in charge. In short, he's a c***.

I'll say it again; if it wasn't for Pardew I'd be fairly pleased with our current state.

Agreed.

Tata Martino to be named Argentina coach.

Dyer could play in the centre though and we had Robert and Solano on the wings. Don't think he would start.
