Mattoon Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 The Chronic had a quote from their manager saying we don't live up to our reputation, we're rubbish and we don't deserve to be in the premier league. I'm paraphrasing of course, but he's not wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 What reputation is that then? I'm guessing European teams only know of us when we actually played there, Ashley has seen to an end to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 What reputation is that, then? I dare say that outside Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool and Chelsea we're the most well known English team (alongside Everton). That is name value only, as people that know of us doesn't necessarily know how bad we are because they don't keep up to date with the performances of the teams that aren't top of the league.

Also, pretty sure he kept calling Shelvey 'Voldemort' It's not hard to learn tbh, as we have very few words compared to other languages and fairly straight forward syntax. Just pronounciation would be a bitch due to our æ, ø and å letters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Just found the quote it was actually a reporter over there, my memory is crap these days, blame it on old age: Mads Hansen says: Newcastle are not as good as everyone makes out.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 http://www.tv2.no/v/1023205/ Lowlights Good to see that the Look North approach of showing highlights from utterly wank angles despite having access to conventional footage is making its way across the continent.

Our reputation is large outside of the UK. People aren't saying that we're good, but when they hear Newcastle - they assume we're a big club - and thus our failures are weird to these people. As mentioned by Nut, it doesn't mean we're actually doing well. It just means we have a high brand recognition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizero Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I made a proper translation of the Mads Hansen tweet, fwiw: "Watching Newcastle - Lillestrøm at La Manga. I can inform you that Newcastle are not as shit as people say they are, they could manage to survive in the Norwegian league." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
