You're exactly the sort of person Mr.Bass was saying would be fooled by papering over the cracks.

What annoys me most is that Fat Sam is making the same basic mistakes time and time again yet keeps persisting with his shite selections and tactics because his head is so far up his own ass he can't believe that he could be wrong.

Enough people were quick to judge Smith when playing in midfield... And Smith has rammed that judgement down peoples throats when he's been played in his correct position ??? No, but Martins clearly has. You mean apart from being our top scorer?

Take your pick: http://www.nufc.com/2007-08html/rumours.html Some (ok, a lot) will be bollocks. Fair enough. I don't claim to know which were and which weren't. All we can do is speculate on that. Fact is we were linked with plenty of other players. I think given some of the names on there it's fair to say that some of the signings were second or third choice. He wanted suggestions, I gave him suggestions. How many players are Man U, Chelsea or any other top club linked with that they don't sign? Does that mean that anyone else they sign are merely second choices? Regardless of whether they were second choices or not they were his signings and the manager should be judged on how they do.

A lot of those names were only very briefly linked to us and some of them are pure fantasy, not to mention that the likes of Cacapa was hardly second choice to Riise or Beye was a second choice to Baines, seeing as how they play in different positions.

Eh?

Can't agree with that, no one will be fooled by that performance or result. I beg to differ. We weren't that great in the previous two games yet the Sky pundits were churning out the old "turned the corner" cliche before the game. I was talking more about the fans and chairman/owner rather than the national media who don't see much of us.

And shite for every other game. Off topic. You're the one who brought him up. Poor argument. Was in comparison to Martins' first-touch/hold-up & linking play. Try again. Ok then, how about I don't give a flying fuck if I go off topic in your thread, that ok for you?

Hard to get excited when we've been so shit.

Have you ever played the game? You don't see why players who are constantly played out of position would get a little bit pissed off? Yes i played, and i was pissed of if i wanted to play in another position. But if i would get my parents wages in a lifetime weekly, i would play with more desire. Don't talk shite. You honestly think that the £80k they take home motivates them more on the pitch? They get it regardless of how they play. I know, i know. I just find it strange that nobody is getting on their backs, when we see a performance like this second half. Let's not forget that over half of the team are his signings.

That's the main difference between the two, at least Gullit had the decency to fall on his sword.

I partially agree but a good manager should be able to get players motivated. BTW hauling Rozenhal off is hardly going to do wonders for his confidence, fucking fat prick.

I really don't think now is the best time to be bringing him on when we're trying to chase the game.

No Sky, things are not good for Newcastle's No.17.

Giving it to Smith would be worthy of instant dismissal imo.

Thinking about going for an LG Viewty in Jan, anyone got an opinion on it?

There's a chick running the technical side of this place now? No wonder we're having problems.

You mean Coleman?

Fair enough, he's turned it round well, or perhaps the shower of shite around him is making him look better than he is.

Christmas party last night. Not feeling good. Fuck all to do all day.
