I think our 'defense' is to attack more than the other team... which doesn't work when things be shaky
-
Was having this conversation with a mate the other day, why is it, even after the takeover, even with a better squad, if anyone is going to fuck up against a bottom team, if anyone needs points after a barren run, it's us that obliges? Ffs...

Which kits are being worn?

He has been in the past, is he having an off day?
-
As much as anything, the recent busy game schedule has shown the difficulty we have with rotation, or lack of it due to strong and familiarity of tactics in depth. I'm still blaming PSR/FFP for that and the corrupt cartel clubs for rigging against us being able to rightfully spend to bring us to a level playing field in terms of the squad.

The ref is doing my heed in
-
Well, if we got him for a free, I'd have seriously considered it, I just don't rate the guy.
-
The lad's not had much of a chance really. But to be blunt, I've not seen anything of him that makes me think he's anything better than any youth players we have that could be blooded. For me, when he's come on he's looked decidedly average and not particularly strong, I wouldn't be that bothered if he was sold.

Financial Fair Play / Profit & Sustainability
Armchair Pundit replied to Mattoon's topic in Football
This, above all else, is ruining football. Gone is the excitement of transfer windows. Everything now is keyed to selling to the established elite and punish anyone who wants to close the gap, whether their owners have the cash to do so or not. Plus, anyone thinking that any of said scummy six (Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and Man City) will get punished for anything is delusional, this whole thing was dreamt up by them, to protect their grip on the income of the league. -

Birmingham City vs. Newcastle United - 08/02/25 @ 17:45 (BBC One)
Armchair Pundit replied to 54's topic in Football
As long as we're not having a complacent day, we should be okay -
Claims Palace have dropped a £70m price tag on Guehi again after Chelsea supposedly sniffing around. I hope we don't entertain such nonsense again.

Newcastle United Vs. Bromley - 12/01/25 @ 15:00 - Live on BBC iPlayer
Armchair Pundit replied to 54's topic in Football
Would definitely blood the youngsters against Bromley, though they need to show a bit more hunger than they did the last time they were given a chance, no complacency either. -
I reckon Arteta's been hanging out with Ange on the sly, the pair of them dreaming up excuses for their failures instead of manning up and dealing with them. Such a cretin.
-
Our Eddie has soooooo much more class than clowns like Arteta and Ange who do nothing but whinge about decisions and make excuses.
-
The bloke's off his head, such an 'anti-ausi' with his whinge-arsing
-
I liked Ange, but he's become a right whinger - ironic they call us whinging poms tbh!
-
Yeah, I thought that, stupid mare
-
Thought Spurs got away with a lot more than we did. Certainly the ref gave us more cards for the same level of tackle/foul, just pleased we won though. Was particularly nice to see that we were able to hold on for the result, interesting to hear we have the 4th best defense in the league too (though the recent run of results must have helped that massively!).
-
While not expecting anything, it would be great if we actually got some early 'big' business done this window, for a change. Definitely need a right winger, striker and probably a right-sided central defender (who could possibly play as backup at right-back). Question is, who?

Manchester United 0-2 Newcastle United (30/12/24)
Armchair Pundit replied to Yorkie's topic in Football
We should have won by 4-5 goals, not sure why we didn't tbh -
I didn't even realise old Mad Dog had been sent off during the commentary on Amazon, only found out about it afterwards via a story on NewsNow!

Newcastle United 4-0 Leicester City (14/12/24)
Armchair Pundit replied to Yorkie's topic in Football
Purposefully missed listening to the match today, figured it'd likely be another bag of shite, then we get a result like this... my suspicions of being a jinx are confirmed, no more shall I watch or listen to a live match! ... maybe. -
