Deuce Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 "several players did not understand the importance of keeping Newcastle in the Premier League." That one is a aswell. Even if it was an apparent French Player who said it, they do have relegation from Ligue1. They're obviously referring to Willo. He only briefly tasted the joys of the Championship but absolutely loved it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Newcastle's players today said they are 100 per cent united in their bid to ensure Premier League survival - and reacted angrily to false rumours of disharmony within the squad. Senior players admitted they are hurting over recent results but strongly dismissed any suggestion of a rift within the dressing room. Papiss Cisse said: "Every player is together. We are totally focussed on Saturday's game at West Ham and the two games after that. We have a strong bond and we want the best for our Club, our manager and our wonderful fans. "We are not happy about recent results. Nobody is happy when they lose, but this has only made us stronger as a group and we will come through this together. There is no divide in the team." The players insist that all members of the squad - including recent signings who arrived in January - are determined to turn things around. "We want to let the fans know that all of the players are committed and we are in this together," said midfielder Cheick Tiote. "We will fight to get out of this problem and we know our fans will help us to do that. They are incredible." Newcastle United managing director Derek Llambias said: "The Club is determined to turn things around and everyone is working together to secure that goal. It is not helpful when people try and distract the team and the manager with false rumours." The Magpies travel to West Ham on Saturday, followed by QPR the weekend after, before returning to St. James' Park for the final game of the season against Arsenal on Sunday, 19th May. http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20130...281670_3164166 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Lets hope it helps fire the boys up for the run in. We need everything we can get. Edwards seems to have often gone for the sensationalist slant since he moved to the telegraph. The choice of the phrase juicy story says it all, as if fans want to read anything like that at this fucking stage of the season when so much is at stake.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Good on the club, even if the stories are true, f*** them. The media are a bunch of c***s at the best of times. If only more clubs acted the same we might be able to rid the game of the s*** generated by the gutter press. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tend to agree with this TBH, most football writers are barely literate and are incredibly lucky to be paid to do a job they're absolutely shite at. I don't have any sympathy for them at all.

LRD Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Stoke City have opted to dismiss current chief scout Lindsay Parsons after an alleged breach of contract following and outspoken interview in which he criticised manager Tony Pulis, the Daily Telegraph has reported. Speaking to the Gloucestershire Echo, Parsons said: "Look at Lionel Messi, he is different class and is he too small? I have recommended players like [Cheick] Tiote, [Hatem] Ben Arfa and [Demba] Ba, but they have not been signed by Stoke and they have done well for other clubs. "I remember one of the first names I gave to Tony at Stoke was a lightning-quick, 6ft 4in striker called (Emmanuel) Adebayor, but we were in the Championship and we were told the fee of £3million was too much. We have loads of disagreements because I don't like the way they play and I will never change on that. I have been told that players I've recommended have been too small for Stoke, but I don't go along with that." http://espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1434386/stoke-city-dismiss-thier-chief-scout-lindsay-parsons?cc=4716 ('their', not 'thier', Nixon ) They didn't sign Ba due to injury concerns. Ben Arfa seem adamant on joining us; even if he didn't there are bigger clubs than Stoke after him. Did the guy get sacked for being unrealistic himself? Madness to come out in the open anyway.
