Sissoko has been brilliant Cunt.

Prawn sandwich ?

Might nothave got that pen if he hadnt been sent off. Or scored as he got one and assisted the other, do we take the rough with the smooth though. He is fucking crackers like.

I only saw it in real time, so fair enough It wasn't an out right stamp, it was more of a trying to shield the ball but going studs in, high on Walker's leg in doing so. Red card all day long.

Hide and seek champion on a hat trick.

That's a dive and a half

Wut ?

That is a proper red card, what a tit.

Mitro is a proper nutjub

Bye Tiote, farewell..

Tiote losing it in such a stupid way.

Why attack like this and not go at Villa, what a bunch of bottling wankers.

That was a fantastic goal that. I suppose a non too often glimpse of what Mitro brings, written off by many but there's a good player in there.

That Warcock link is just the journo trying to get a rise out of us. I know it's not a popular thing to say but even if Rafa doesn't take the job (god knows i hope he does), there won't be a shortage of decent managers wanting it. Although it's never who wants it, it's who the idiots running the club appoint. We're still a decent pull for managers out there, no doubt about that in my mind.

Drogba just smashed one in for Montreal Impact.

Him and his wife really are fantastic people, i know they can afford to do it but they do seem a wonderful couple.

That was brilliant, god i miss him...

I think we'll get this one right and he'll remain, the stakes are too high for the club if they mess it up and I'm sure they know that. I agree with you and do think it's different this time, but the past has told us they learn nothing from what went before, that's why there's so much doubt about getting it right now imo.

The amount of times he said professional, says everything about what type of man he is, and what he expects from Newcastle, the players and staff. And professional is just what we need. Edit : Steve Howey can fuck off.

Sounds like it's down to Charnley - he'll mess it up It really is, if Rafa is given the level of control he wants he's staying. Only the club can fuck this up now.

Going down might not be a bad thing in the long run imo, players who have let us down will want to move. We can them out because we've gone down, the players will push for it as well as their agents, and teams will be interested despite how shit they've been. We can get players with more about them in, build on it and buy players when we do come up, who are better than the shower of shit we have. Players who aren't just here as a stepping stone. All of that above matters if Rafa stays of course, because he'll have total control and i trust him to buy and sell the right players and get us back up. If Rafa doesn't, forget the bollocks i just wrote.

He's a far far better striker than mitrovic and 34 means nothing, Defoe is 33 has just singlehandedly kept the mackems up and talk of an England recall We need to get away from this ageist bullshit While i'm not a fan of Lambert, what you said is one of the many reason were where we are now, not signing older experienced players when we need one, or one that suits our team. There's old and then there's old. NUFC wouldn't sign players over 28. That doesn't mean we should get players who are 34 and over now. Most players (apart from goalkeepers) are at the end of their career by 34. I'm all for signing players who are over 28. Anyone signed over 30 must get a suitable length contract though. Aye, agree with that.

We are a much bigger club than Swansea, Southampton or Stoke it could be argued, but they are now established PL sides who for the most part haven't been flirting with relegation year on year and who seem to have a strategy for some improvement on and off the pitch. We are owned by an idiot, ran by idiots and have no strategy or plan in place (any that makes sense anyway) for improving. Watford could easily fall into the 'Stoke' category of sides if they get their next appointment correct. Playing the we are bigger than you card needs some revision in my opinion. Far 'bigger' clubs than the Watfords of this world have been languishing in the second tier of football for years now. To dismiss the Watford link smacks of arrogance to me. Thanks to Ashley we really are a toxic choice. I wouldn't dismiss them becuase of that, i would rule them out because they change their managers so often that it wouldn't suit Rafa at all. Especially if he's looking to build something somewhere, Watford is 100% not the place for him to do that. You'd argue that we're not in the habit of being builders either. Not that I think he's off to Watford. Very true, although i'm running with the assumption that we've seen the light and will hand Rafa what he wants. (hope, it'll kill me won't it) We also don't sack managers unless they are absolute fucking dross. He'd be set until he retires if he wants here. Also true but there's now way he'd work under the process that Pardew/McClaren did. He wants full control, especially over transfers (which is the main sticking point in all of it for me).

Jordan Rhodes, hasn't done it at the smoggies. If he doesn't get a game there he could be a option on loan early into the season.
