mrmojorisin75 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 aye i'm not agreeing to it like, just wanted to know what he was on about if nothing else it's not worth my time for a tenner, i also think for it to be a real bet you'd have to make it NUFC to be 5+ points ahead of swansea as they're the ones in europe this year and as happy face's man has consistently stated europe fucked us over....that being said we should not only better them but do so by more more points due to the draining effect of europe Think we're getting a general idea of how ridiculous a notion it actually is now. Swansea obviously favourites, but no reason to think Newcastle are unable to outperform them this year. what's a ridiculous notion? i don't know what you're on about Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BottledDog Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Never ever bet on Newcastle. Nah, seemed all too plausible so stuck a bet on Newcastle to win first half, Hull to win full time at 70 to 1. Pessimism! The only reliable winner.

Hanshithispantz Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I said before the season that I think we'll finish 8th like, knocked that down to 9-10th now after seeing Everton and Swansea but I think we'll be about there purely because of the dross filling the rest of the league. I think it'll be a torturous and frustrating ride regardless. I'm happy with that progress. We finished 8 points from 8th last year and were absolutely shite. Anything over 50 points and you're pretty much odds on as you're really only the best of a bad bunch. It's only progress if we maintain it and/or improve upon it though. And Pardew showed last year that he's hardly reliably in that respect, especially without investment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's a ridiculous notion that we might. aaah yes, i did say that, and you're right to pull me up on it tbf...i don't think we'll finish above them but yeah we might not be a million miles away from them, it's not beyond the realms of possibility anyway as stated you can have your bet if you factor the points swing for europe against swansea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
