The remainder of the season?

Same as a big chunk of clubs in the league sadly. Avoid relegation at all costs, de-prioritise the cups, grind out as many more points as we can.

 

Lucky football is usually interesting enough over each individual 90 to make you forget that the bigger picture for most clubs is basically completely futile.

Ashley has roughly achieved what he wanted for Newcastle United - to be a cheap and prominent vehicle for his advertising of Sports Direct. He has no other use for the club than that and he will do as little as possible by way of spending on the club to achieve the status quo.

 

We are, frankly, a laughing stock of a club - no wonder other clubs fans think NUFC fans are deluded because they turn up in massive numbers just to get their faces rubbed in failure season after season....they swallow the kind of blatant lying and hype that the management come out with and then. after exiting competitions like the FAC in the 3rd round every season, they turn up again the following August expecting better...crazy.

 

There are obviously plenty who can afford to chuck away hundreds of pounds to an owner who laughs in their faces every year, makes it quite clear what his(lack of)ambitions are for the club and keeps a manager who is a blatant stooge because he couldn't get a job elsewhere in the PL and is cheap to keep...

 

As Midds said - for next season , rinse and repeat ...so it will be until the club gets an owner who has more football ambition than Ashley so until fans boycott, there will be NO change.

 

Watch results fall off now..

These are my targets for the season:

 

- Beat the mackems (& their relegation) Agreed!

- Try and get 7th No UEFA Cup. It's shit.

- Secure HBA to new contract (unlikely) Shola is thought more of - he'll want out.

- Sign Remy Would be nice. But unlikely

 

Thats it. Depressing, really.

 

We are shit.

I doubt any club in the top flight has anywhere near as poor a record in cups as us over recent years. This big chunk doesn't exist.

 

Paul Lambert's certainly said he's not interested and other managers have said he's talking rubbish. Apart from our glorious leader of course.

I can remember Chris Hughton used to de-prioritise the cups because he had a much smaller squad so used to play a lot of kids. yet somehow he still used to win cup games the mad bastard. Like Pardew it must have been down to luck.

Pardew thinks games should be re-scheduled; it's as if everything is against us and only us with this defeatist bastard.

The season is more or less over for our fringe players now as they won't be getting any regular time in the Premier League squad.

NUFC need to try to loan out Sammy Ameobi, Bigirimana, Good and the like.

Try to sell Gosling.

Marveaux, Gutierrez and Obertan probably won't get much game time for the rest of the season. They may as well ask for a transfer.
