merlin Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Up to a 9 now, and gathering speed faster than a free-faller...clearly McClaren and the players are at loggerheads and the manager knows he cannot do anything to motivate them as they know Ashley won't replace them..and its too late even if he wanted to as no decent players would join the club in January. Another hammering beckons next week and to be honest, this would do us a favour, esp if the crowd decide to make some form of protest although I won't be holding my breath on THAT one, even less so on the chances of a mini-boycott. KK could not have made it any plainer than he did when he said the fans need to stay away, but there are some very cranially-challenged people who claim to be NUFC supporters and they are meat and drink for a parasite like Ashley. Prepare for Championship football next season and for several years after that... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Could still be lucky that there's 3 teams below us who up to now (touch wood) are unable to win home matches against average opposition too. Still might be the saving grace. 3? I'm struggling to think of one worse, villa maybe but I'd bet on them getting better as time goes on and they still look like they have some fight left in them This - they have more chance of making decent signings in Jan too.

merlin Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Amazingly we still aren't cut adrift. In most previous seasons any team with 10 points from 14 games would be miles behind the rest. Relegation could still be avoided with a new inspirational manager and heavy investment in the transfer window (on January the 1st not the 31st) buying/loaning experienced players. Mike Ashley is desperate for NUFC to remain in the Premiership for next seasons bumper money. If we get relegated he'll be full of ambition to get NUFC promoted back to the Premiership. When it comes to football he never seems to learn from his mistakes though. Ashley is simply laughable - he is a chancer, purely and simply, allied to a malevolent streak.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 We are down unless McClaren is replaced with a miracle worker and heavy investment in Jan. Those down there with us all have things we don't, fight, spirit, togetherness, leadership and something to work with. We have zilch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaotikuk Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Looking at our fixtures, theres no way we are stringing a few results together.. Liverpool next, then spurs, 2 deffo losses. THEN a must win against villa. Even a manager change wont save us i dont think. Totally screwed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 dont we need around 50% of the remaining points to get to 40- never going to happen,a few more bad results and that will be way above 50% for low thirties. its a proper fuck up this is. edit- no we dont. daft cunt.

Lush Vlad Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 If we don't get rid of Schteve Mac and only get 1-2 mediocre players in Jan. Then I'd say we're now at a 10. If we get a decent manager in and he gets backed in January. Then I'd say it's more like a 7. So as it stands: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Normally after a heavy defeat by Monday I've had a chance to digest the result and start taking the positives. Not this time. I can't see us surviving unless multiple factors change. I've even been consider if Rivière and Armstrong would be a decent Championship forward line.

George Bailey Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Would destroy the progress and development of Armstrong imo..........................So undoubtedly this shit club, with its shit owner, shit board and shit manager will bring him back. as for relegation it has been nailed on for weeks unless huge changes are made. We are shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ankles Bennett Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Ashley needs to call a players meeting and tell all the players that they will be made to honour their contracts and will be playing in the championship next season if we get relegated.
