  1. Hope you washed the grass stains off it after your 'incident'.
  2. Is losing and conceding a fundamental?
  3. Who else could we realistically get though? I think we should keep him for fear of getting worse.
  4. Sure there is a couple of users on here, have had that for a while as the sig? Still quality like.
  5. Jamie nipped the Cabaye excuse in right at the end. At the end of the day, the players don't look interested because they are all sick to fucking death of this set up. Not because they are bad players.
  6. I want to do this. Was checking in the Gallowgate last night, was still a few empty rows in the top left block available. Closest to the strawberry corner.
  7. Me and my mate are going for the first time in 2 years, just to abuse the cunt. Hope the Gallowgate is toxic.
  8. I will have a stroke if he goes tonight like.

    Watch your letterbox John.
  10. That picture is gold. We are pathetic. Pardew and Carver fuck off.
  11. JUST FUCK OFF ALAN. How the fuck are Soton a relative unknown?
  12. Seen a few things on twitter from the @NUFC account. He apparently mentioned we have "Mainly looked strong this season and need to take that on" And... "Southampton away is a fixture that has been hard on us the last couple of years, we need to improve on that" Funny though, who else has been here during those COUPLE of years?
  13. That was quick! http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/mark-douglas-alan-pardew-caught-7741436 It was the first day of November: a cold, crisp and dark evening. The dial was set to 5Live where Roberto Martinez, among others, was discussing the fate of Newcastle United in a week that they’d lost a derby and a lot of goodwill by becoming the most high-profile club to issue a banning order to its local ‘papers. Martinez, an urbane, intelligent and thoughtful manager of stylish, entertaining sides, was asked whether the background noise mattered. “Not really,” he responded. “If the team win on Saturday it is all forgotten. All of it. Three points are all that matters.” The next day, Newcastle achieved arguably their finest home victory since Alan Pardew was named the LMA’s Manager of the Year in 2012 – beating Chelsea 2-0 with a display laced with discipline and desire. As Martinez promised it would, discontent was quelled. A year on, the question now is whether the boundaries have been shifted. Would three points on Saturday calm tensions? Or have we passed the point of no return? Last night, a professional and polished website was launched. A sparkly site titled sackpardew.com lists the darkest days of the manager’s reign, recounts quotes that show him contradicting himself and statistics that appear damning. It looks good but is, of course, highly selective in what it presents. It is unapologetically anti the manager and comes from the Newcastle fans on Twitter who asked fellow supporters to tweet pictures of themselves all over the world with an anti-Pardew message. I asked supporters over social media what they thought of it and a rough count of the 70 or so replies I got within the first hour suggested that three quarters felt the website was a good thing. The rest felt it either pointless, vindictive or counter-productive. At the moment the person behind the site is yet to identify themselves and there is no single Twitter fan claiming to be the driving force of the campaign, although there is a small crop of advocates for it. There is a function to donate to ‘future campaigns’ – it doesn’t say what they are yet – that has raised £500 or so. Any money not used will be given to the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation, it says. So what is the point of it all? It is highly unlikely, after all, that Mike Ashley will be convinced by a website, no matter how professionally put together it is. Fan campaigns in the past have done little to move United’s hierarchy. But what those who advocate it say is that it is a lightening conductor for feelings that are running high, somewhere to direct ill-will against a man that they now believe is ruining their enjoyment of the club. “He cannot make us proud or make us believe that he can take this great football club in the right direction,” the front page reads. It is an ‘awareness’ thing: documenting what they feel are his failings to convince those who don’t see it as clearly as they do. “We call upon Mike Ashley to remove Pardew from his post and to appoint a candidate based on merit, in an open and transparent manner, as soon as possible,” they say. “We will use all methods at our disposal to see this come to pass.” What this means is unclear, but it all adds to a narrative that is troubling for the manager. Last season’s game against Cardiff saw Newcastle supporters walk out virtually en masse. It felt like a point of no return but Pardew has returned. It increasingly feels as if he is pushing against the tide.
  14. Who is running the @sackpardew? I am already following them on twitter because it's an account I followed when that #Pardewout thing took off, back in May? Who were the 2 people off here doing it again? And well fucking done because that website is quality!
  15. I am getting giddy. Think of him being sacked man. Stuff dreams are made of.
  16. Colo called Hatem fat and said that he doesn't track back and cover his fullback enough.
