Dr Venkman Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Spectacularly late with this post, but did anyone else notice him going to ground against Fenerbache in a very uncharacteristic way? He did it about two or three times, It was really weird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 The Magpies were tipped for relegation last term but confounded the critics by finishing fifth in the Premier League thanks mainly to sensational strike duo Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse. I don't understand the media constantly spouting that line, WHO was tipping us for relegation? I don't know a single person in their right mind who'd have thought, "oh yeah, there are no squads worse than Newcastle, like." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know a single person in their right mind who'd have thought, "oh yeah, there are no squads worse than Newcastle, like." There was some journalist that tipped us to go down. Can't remember the name, but I think he worked for The Times or Independent. Quite a few others tipped us to struggle as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Kamara thought we'd go down from the Championship with Peterborough going up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not, but Ba wasn't certain to be great and Cabaye wasn't heard of by the media. We'd also sold Nolan who scored a lot of goals for us and struggled in the second half of the season after Carroll left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 there wasn't exactly a whole lot of confidence on here going into last season either tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 there wasn't exactly a whole lot of confidence on here going into last season either tbh Wouldn't agree with that, many were anticipating mid-table and some thought possibly more hence the battle for 7th thread.

DJ_NUFC Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I was expecting a healthy mid-table with a jaw-dropping, dream-inspiring finish upto 10th, to be honest. 10th was the position I was going around telling all my mates we'll finish, and they would laugh hysterically, being glory-hunting topferers.

Mole_Toonfan Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I thought we would finish around 8th or 9th. It was a depressing time but i cant fathom why anyone would think we would get relegated, we wasn't great but there was more than enough teams in this league that was a lot worse than us.

Kimbo Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I do recall critics tipping us for relegation. Personally I thought we would get top 10, I felt our squad improved last summer as I didn't particularly rate Barton and Nolan, while some others were getting caught up in the "selling all the best players" nonsense. *smug* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I was actually on the fence about getting rid of Barton, turns out it was a very good decision. As much as I appreciated what Nolan did for us I wasn't sad to see the back of him. I was fairly happy at the start of last season except I was pissed off that we didn't get another striker along with Ba, but we ended up getting Cisse in January so hey ho.

Guest BooBoo Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I had us to finish 12th last seasn. What made last year so great was the expectation wasn't massive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I was convinced we would finish 7th in the pre-season and thought I was a little aggressive on that prediction. I'm waiting for the transfer window to close before I make a prediction this time as it could dramatically change based on our/others activity related and unrelated to our squad.

Nah - isn't a cult hero someone who wasn't completely brilliant, but still remembered very favourably? People like Ketsbaia, Tino... Shola. For example, you'd never describe Shearer as a 'cult hero'.
