midds Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Didn't expect anything from City or Spurs, they're both far, far better than us. Our next two games are fucking massive now. Need 4 points minimum from them to keep our heads above water. Move on and put it right at Wigan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Glad we kept it to two. That's about all I have to say about this match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I feel sorry for Carroll, the service to him is fucking shocking, we played today the way we played when we went down, long ball after long ball. We've been playing that way for weeks now tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 We have nothing to offer in midfield, need to fix this problem in January and hopefully we'll have Ben Arfa back soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 People commenting that we played a long ball game today need to rethink what they saw. One attacking option. Hit it to carroll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Down to 12th, 4 points off the drop with Birmingham (18th) still to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShearMagic Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Precisely why it was a shit time for Pardew to get appointed. Two ridiculously hard games, where the result would have been no different - and apparently it's his fault. Fucking idiots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 We lost to Man City and Tottenham shocker. Who would've though eh? I personally expected to win both 5-0. Yup. 2 x top 4 sides. Not the end of the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Pardew has been awful, like. You can't deny it. i've been saying this for a week now, he's come in and changed things that didnt need changing, and he's actively ruining what little edge we had. What exactly has he changed? Taken Barton off the wing for a start. Been more down to injuries and the like. no Yes. do you mean against man city when he had all the personell available that he needed to play barton on the right? or today when he had all the personell he needed available to play barton on the right? just like since williamson's been available again he's stuck with taylor? barton on the right feeding carroll was the ONLY thing we had going for us for fucks sake Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
indi Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Can anyone explain why Taylor is starting ahead of Williamson? The only reason I can come up with is that Pardew is worried about the fans and thinks playing Taylor will buy him some good will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Nice to see Smith get a run out. Hopefully we'll not see him again for a few months though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbers Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I feel sorry for Carroll, the service to him is f***ing shocking, we played today the way we played when we went down, long ball after long ball. We've been playing that way for weeks now tbh. Yep ever since we scored them goals from Bartons free kicks, angled to Carroll ala the Arsenal goal.

oldtype Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 People commenting that we played a long ball game today need to rethink what they saw. One attacking option. Hit it to carroll We have had two attacking options all season. Carroll, and Nolan off a Carroll flick-on. No surprise that we struggle when one is missing.

Dr Venkman Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Crying out for hughton Hughton who took a stronger team to Bolton and got dicked 5-1? Enough. i'm no hughton fan boy but pardew is a fucking clown Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Williamson won't let him shag his wife but he knows if he fancies Taylor's lass he can just slap him round the chops? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 One win in the last eight games. Barton completely out of touch but the only player that looks likely to do something positive. Krul should be dropped after Spurs second going in from there coming on the back of City performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taken Barton off the wing for a start. Maybe that has had something to do with the fact that we had a combination of Ameobi out injured and Nolan suspended in the games he's managed. Who would you play in the middle if Barton is on the right? Guthrie? Smith? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Ranger and Nolan should stay in the team. No place for Routledge, Barton on the right. Keep what was working. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
