alexf Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Aren't those types of reds only 1 game normally? So add on the extra game and it should only be two. Still ridiculous that would be a 1 game ban offence normally and Remy gets three Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 He's had a 3 game and a 1 game, with another rescinded. Should still be 4 games for 2 reds though I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Had a quick search on Twitter and some fella from the Mackem Echo says it's only a 2-match ban. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Makes sense actually. One game ban with an extra for two reds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 How has Poyet shown he's any better than Pardew? Pardew's an average manager but actually managed to get a team promoted out of the Championship (Poyet also spent a fair bit, IIRC) and Poyet's not even kept the mackems up yet. He might have AP's number but that doesn't count for that much. This isn't me liking Pardew either, my real opinion of him is that he's pretty average and has obvious limitations. 4-0 with lesser players...FFS Again, that counts for little. Let's talk proper achievements. Why not talk about team shape, movement and tactical acumen? Neither you nor Foulwashola seem to want to get into the detail. I'm really happy to go into detail, actually. Do you have consistent Poyet analysis to bring up to compare with what we've seen from Pardew in his time here?

Cajun Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Poyet is class tbh. Shame his players like to get sent off every 2 minutes. I don't think it's much of a shame, like. TRC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 One defeat and suddenly they're deep in the s**** again. 3 of their next 4 league games are Man City, Arsenal & Liverpool away. They could be adrift again by mid March. You see 'this is a must-win game' quite a lot but for them, yesterday really was, they needed a cushion going into those fixtures.

Guest Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 The other game in that run is West Brom at home. That could decide their season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 6 points we have given them will keep them up IMO. Even if they have 3 difficult fixtures coming up, there will be less difficult fixtures after that, and they look like they have enough collective spirit and teamwork to eke out a few more points that others around them.

Stray Mackem Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 That was the most damaging result of the season so far. The results we are getting at home against the teams around us are pitiful. Will we stay up ? I honestly think it's to close to call, and I wouldn't even guess at the 3 to go down, although Fulham look very poor. We will be in the bottom three by the time our next home league game on 15th March and we'll need to kick on again after that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 It's all well and good them raising themselves for the derby and the final etc, but by the end of that run of games they're more than likely have taken a beating in the final. They've a canny few players on loan and out of contract soon as well as being back adrift in the bottom there. Will be interesting to see this 'spirit' then with only 9 games left.

I know his contract is up at the end of the season, really wouldn't mind us attempting to get him. TBH I wouldn't be that bothered if he went. He's never been consistent, as has been highlighted perfectly in his last 4 or 5 games. He has the odd stand out game but he is far too often below par.

geordie_b Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 If Brown had done that tackle in the middle of the pitch he would have got 3 matches for serious foul play. Because it was in front of goal the severity of the tackle is ignored and classed as a professional foul so gets just 1 game. Seems a ridiculous rule.
