Guest Stephen927 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Well, thats another year of supporting Newcastle United over. Hoping we start off next year with a win over Wigan, huge game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Barton was ill today, coughing loads, which could explain his stray passes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I fully expected to lose this game. What's annoying is that having seen the game, Spurs were no great shakes and we passed up the opportunity of a point. Especially after the sending off. We were rubbish, regardless of the opposition.

Zero Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Barton and Carroll looks very exhausted to be honest. Tiote really needs to learn to control his temper. He is just too lucky not to be sent off today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishmael 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. didn't see many people blaming him for the city defeat...... but today he made a shit and crucial decision to jonas off. We needed someone to stretch them......... that wasn't going to happen with tiote and smith on the field. The same Jonas that has offered sweet fuck all this season?

Dr Venkman 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. nah that's irrelevant mate it's all about the opposition and hughton wasnt that good anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Slightly bitter about that, we should've got a draw. Peter effing Lovenkrands! Barton was below par and Tiote was living dangerously there. Wasn't particularly happy with the referee either. We played well, but anyone assuming we'll be fine needs to look at the table. Its close and we're most certainly part of this relegation battle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"no great shakers"? They were clearly the stronger outfit in every department. and we were rubbish because well, we don't have a good enough squad.

What's annoying is that having seen the game, Spurs were no great shakes and we passed up the opportunity of a point. Especially after the sending off. We were rubbish, regardless of the opposition. Ditto. Was very much like the performances we put in when we went down. No creativity, few if any chances and little desire/pressure on the game when we should've had the upper hand. Not arsed (particularly) about getting beat its the manner of the defeat that is the problem. We seem to have turned into Wimbledon circa 1990 too, our good performances on the road have come through controlled possession football, I saw none of that today.

Gaz Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Has Barton not only made 1 assist (v West Ham) on the right? Cant think of anymore, barring his freekick assists which can be made from any position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 To state the obvious: we've been alot worse since Spurs went down to 10 men. And that's entirely because Pardew has unbalanced the entire side with his substitutions. Nothing to do with the fact that we pushed up higher to try and get the equalizer due to our numerical advantage and got caught on the break. Sure! You would prefer the Hughton way of just standing there looking smug and bringing on Ranger in the 85th minute, at least we won't lose our shape ya!

S.S.R. Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 We're better than at least three teams in this division. I'm not too concerned. Spurs should be beating us at home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 We looked as if our sole intention was to frustrate. Fair enough we did that reasonably well, but offered little as an attacking force. 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. didn't see many people blaming him for the city defeat...... but today he made a shit and crucial decision to jonas off. We needed someone to stretch them......... that wasn't going to happen with tiote and smith on the field. Because Jonas was so effective in the first 65 minutes.... Honestly forgot he was playing. People can question his starting XI, but it's hard with 2 games in 3 days. If we dont get results against Wigan and West Ham then it's time to start worrying, but losing to a top 4 side away from home thanks to 2 pretty decent goals is nothing to be worried about.

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. Nolan was suspended. Im aware, im talking about the future. Adding defensive players isnt making us better defensively & we clearly need more attacking options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 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. Exactly people are making out as if Hughton was a Mourinho. Pardew is clearly average but he is no worse than Hughton. In fact I appreciate the fact that he tries to take initiative to change things around through substitutions when we are behind. How many minutes did Ranger get under Hughton?

What's annoying is that having seen the game, Spurs were no great shakes and we passed up the opportunity of a point. Especially after the sending off. We were rubbish, regardless of the opposition. That's the thing. Spurs are better than us in just about every position but a draw from that game was more than possible. The sending off worked in their favour... the changes Pardew made to exploit the extra man were all a big fucking carcrash. Nightmare. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it was his run and cross that setup carroll for a decent chance in the first half. But maybe you were happy enough with barton on the left and routledge doing fuck all in the 2nd half.

Guest marky555 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. Yeh spot on mate, I wonder if Inter Milan dropped Cesar when he put 3 past him in a similar fashion to today? Bale is world class and most keepers would have struggled with that.
