Incognito Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 It is amazing certain posters have been so complacent despite what happened just 3 seasons ago. We topped the Championship? Not counting this season you pedant. Me neither. Playing in the Championship just 3 years ago surely should remind people we are not entitled to stay up merely because we are Newcastle United. But you already knew that. Of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you already knew that. Of course. We have a lot more fight in this side now though. Cabaye captaining the side instead of Owen for one. This team wants to stay up imo, those that took us down were already looking at their next clubs so didn't give a fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 A better manager too, tbh. We'll know by the end of the season. If we get relegated with this squad then I'm not so sure. And we had four different managers that season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, we signed 5 quality players in January. I doubt they want to have to move on straight away. Those players are already friends with others at this club. We had a turn around that dragged us away from trouble in January. We haven't played the nicest football (as we haven't all season) but getting fucked over against Wigan and losing away to the current champions won't change the squads mentality. We had something like top 5/6 form, the players that brought us that haven't become shit. As mentioned we have just had one game where we really didn't deserve to lose and one most wouldn't have expected to win even if we were on last seasons form!

Flip Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I just hope we can beat Fulham, never fun to play Fulham, and let's hope the fascist doesn't give the Mackems a revival shot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 We have more stability, better players and much better personalities than last time. That might help. Yet we are 3 points off relegation with 7 games to go, Pardew is absolute shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 It is amazing certain posters have been so complacent despite what happened just 3 seasons ago. The graphic Dave posted on the last page showed we were in the relegation zone as early as March, and I dare say some time before that too. We haven't even been in the bottom four all season, as monumentally shit as we've been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't even been in the bottom four all season, as monumentally shit as we've been. don't really understand this logic, 'cause we haven't been in the zone means we can't go in the zone? let's say worst case if we lose the next 2 games (hope we don't) we'd almost certainly be in the zone, or on equal points with the team in 18th at least with 6 games to go what the fuck does not having been in the zone so far have to do with that?

Stu Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 We're looking woeful at the moment, think we're a 6/7 Best chance of us staying up is if three teams below us fail to get as many points as us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 yeah i don't think they'll sack him like, don't even think they're considering it, and it could really come back to hurt us if results don't go our way lose at home to fulham he has to go imo, that'd be the end of the argument right there The end of the argument was Reading at home.

We haven't even been in the bottom four all season, as monumentally shit as we've been. All season doesn't matter ...after the last games obviously do. The fight that I'm seeing from QPR, Villa etc, I haven't seen from us in the past 2 fixtures. This in turn has put enormous pressure on the next 2 games, and with a manager who has shown with his negative style that he isn't the bravest, I'm fearful .

Yorkie Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 It was just a theory for the 'complacency' shown by people. Going by the rules of the relegationometer, you can understand why people don't go above 5 when we've never actually been in the relegation zone.

It's complacent to think that we can't be relegated cos we can be and we aren't setting the league alight at the moment performance wise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something that the league table shows, and has shown all season, in fact. Some would say we were better than 3 teams when we were relegated. Of course it's complacent to say we definitely won't go down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
