Hi @Joe_Kinnear2. Just to let you know, this one is @SimonBird_ #c***

 

:lol: Not sure I can hate Joe Kinnear, we were more of an atrocious comedy sketch than a football club at that point.

 

Joe Kinnear is just the crazy drunk racist uncle of the NUFC family. You can't really hate him, because he's not actually evil, like the absentee sociopathic uncle Pards, he's just really really stupid and misinformed.

Are you Geordies sure?

 

A most amusing aspect of the pre-season banter was the blinkered blathering from the fans of Newcastle United.

 

“We’ll soon be back where we belong,” they echoed, so confident of a swift return to the promised land of the Premier League.

 

Even given the fanatical loyalty of the Geordie hordes, I still find that a strange viewpoint.

 

Look at the EFL pyramid and the facts don’t lie.

 

Newcastle now “belong” in the Championship, having surrendered their elite status due to a dismal campaign last time around.

 

Delusions of grandeur are two a penny in England’s second tier.

 

Just glance at those who are still living on past glories as they struggle to regain their “rightful place” among the PL big boys.

 

A small sample - Aston Villa, Blackburn Rovers, Derby County, Leeds United, Newcastle, Nottingham Forest, Wolverhampton Wanderers.

 

Many other lesser lights can be added to that list. Even if their stay in the top flight may have been brief, they also still feel a sense of belonging among England’s crème de la crème.

 

Reality checks arrive every week in the Championship. Fulham 1, Newcastle 0 at Craven Cottage last Friday immediately springs to mind.

 

“It’s a wake-up call,” Newcastle manager Rafael Benitez conceded. For him, his players … and their perennially deluded fans.

 

What a fucking flid :lol:
