stozo Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 http://englishfootballpatient.wordpress.com/2013/01/14/what-happened-to-newcastle/ Interesting blog. In short it says that much of our strong season last year could have been down to luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dontooner Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 We better had someone line up after the Reading game...or we are in deep shit if we were to look to buy players without a Manager at the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping that, really rate him. Yeah, i like him a lot. The hype around him seems to have died off since Thomas Ince started ripping it up but he's always looked dangerous whenever i've seen him - goals, assists, pace (basically everything we lack when Hatem isn't playing) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudson Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If Pardrew gets the bullet, what makes people think that any of these managers would come here. A Manager would be picked that could play hoofball, and work with the current squad with little to no money to invest in the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Manager would be picked that could play hoofball, and work with the current squad with little to no money to invest in the team. Why would we pick a long ball manager when all our signings have been proper ball players? I thought that exact thing was what Pardew was most often criticised for.

Guest tollemache Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Interesting article about last season. In a way I wish we'd finished 9th or something, to give the impression of a hiccup amid progress this year instead of the illusion of a collapse from dizzy heights. I don't think there's much of a gap between the two in reality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thursday's they do the pre match press conferences for the weekend game I think, so I'm sure we'll get some interesting stuff out of him tomorrow.

Guest tollemache Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 All I've done so far is agreed with the idea that our 5th-placed finish last season was arguably a bit of an illusion in terms of where we were. We rode our luck on a very regular basis and could easily have ended up further down the table, as anyone seeking to argue that Pardew has never known what he is doing, for example, will be happy to point out.
