McLaren is welling up tears..

I hear you Billy, but what "options" would he have, with what's on the bench?

Too right howay Colo needs taking off, worst I've ever seen from him, so slow bad decisions , diving in for everything.

Here we go again, it's all Steve's fault when its really almost fuck all to do with him. Yey! Lets get another manager that's going to change absolutely none of the clubs problems.

Poor colo is on a rapid decline now. He needs to be backup now.

That he got away with too!

Back on topic. I agree with Corbyn but for entirely different reasons. It's my belief that wars like this are not winnable without massive ground forces and support forces behind them to hold territory and help the population rebuild (e.g UN, Red Cross, NGO's etc). Vietnam, Afghanistan etc etc all show just how hard it is to defeat an enemy like this - conventional war doesn't work. Air support is supposed to be exactly that, support to ground troops and naval vessels - it's fuck all use blowing up 3 IS ragheads with a 100,000 quid bomb and dismembering some poor fuckers dad whos just there with his livestock or whatever the fuck. I believe no to airstrikes , as its been put forward now (as airstrikes then some imaginary co-ordinated "friendly" other bunch of local yocals do the ground offensive). So, my perhaps controversial thought is that we need to do what we did in the 2nd world war all over again, and back the lesser of the two evils (e.g. Soviet Russia with Stalin, vs Nazi Germany with hitler). Yes to full co-operation with Russia and Assad . With the full public eye and co-operation on Russian military actions, its going to be hard for Assad to be quite as much a monster as he is without us watching. It's fuckin horrible to even type, but its the only chance in hell we've got of really destroying Islamic State and not just fuelling more recruits with the absolutely massive "collateral damage" that airstrikes on populated areas does. (hate that term) The US are currently using Thermobaric bombs out there, Russia are using them too, but not anywhere near Assad held territories.

You know what CT? I always had you down as a genuine guy who just spoke his mind and opinion , which , of course you're entitled to. I didn't really subscribe to the "he just says anything to wind everyone up" thoughts. But saying Cameron is the best PM in your lifetime, that's done it. You have to be trolling. he's among the fucking worst in mine - unless you're a multi millionaire with a vested interest in the development of china and other emerging markets , you're trolling. What good have those cunts done for the UK in their term? Name 1 fucking thing.

Yeah get fucked essenbee you total cunt, don't use a dead man for a cheap jibe. I think the club should do more tbh, something should happen on the 5th year if only to raise awareness of mental health.

I don't understand Colo keeping the armband, and have scratched my head for over a year on it. He doesn't communicate with the players, he doesn't play particularly well himself and is as guilty as anyone of having a lack of enthusiasm or drive to win a game. There's 5 players I'd pick as skipper in front of him, perhaps there's some kind of obligation or something? Very harsh on McLaren with the change of play style he's trying to put in, we are losing but the last 2 games aside, they've looked so much better with a passing game , than under Pardew or Carver.​ That said, as many of you say, he knew what he was getting into. The sudden decline of performances in players is a major worry though, Gino was on fire when he arrived and his head's already gone down.

I'll always remember him a bit sadly, he had such potential but he never truly recovered from his injury.

There are over 190 countries in the world. if the "top tier" consists of only 1 country (the one that won) then I'll accept that. Otherwise its arrogant pish.

The way I see it tho Howay is we have no players other than what he's putting out. So many have no heart or tie to the club because that's what they've come for, get in the premier league be seen , be sold. We're buying on that principle .. I still think we are playing better football than the last 2 seasons, problem is better than really dire isn't enough. Signings this year have been good , cabella/thauvin aside. Until he has decent options he doesn't take I can't see what the problem with selection is...

Having a go at McLaren now! Fuck me, we're lucky to have him with Ashley and were probably among the worst squads in the league full of cheap crocked / attitude / prospects to make Ashley's cock hard with his accounts. Players did look totally unfit or demoralised after 40 mins.. Getting the sack for losing to Leicester, with 29 goals scored, first in league, leading goalscorer, unbeaten in 6 (5 wins 1 draw).... Mackem forum fodder this like.

Someone's on the blob today

Now that was weak..

Wilnajdum is in the top 5 point scoring midfielders in FF, he's hardly been non existent for the season. Very low mood on here today. No ones scored more goals than Leicester and our best midfielder is anonymous apparently...

no end product again and some panicky play. Gloom you've got be being sarcastic , losing at home to Leicester effs? They're top of the league man! Howay, don't you think the defence is at least better? We're not getting hammered at least.

They all donate their money to charity don't they? I thought that was the deal.

I never said that, I said from what he says so far (which has been very little tbh) he very much sees himself as an ex-NUFC player above all else.

to the bbc post. It fucks me off so much reading such arrogant shit as that. Saying "England are second tier" is so disrespectful to so many clubs. Look, if you FUCKING QUALIFY for the world cup or euros, then you most certainly are in the top tier you fucking muppet. those that didn't qualify might be 2nd third forth tier. Bet the authors a fucking yank. Winners and losers and that's it.

Funny that, I know a lot of people went with that view. But he speaks SO Highly of bobby it's weird. Either he's racked with guilt, or we've all been fed bullshit

If you're watching Im a celeb , he's mentioned the toon a few times, and no other clubs. He definately shares your view Alex (apart from the cheek bit). The silverware comment is too true isn't it? I think he's still black and white.

Oh and 3-2 toon.

Anything that gets us westerners seriously thinking about ISIS and stopping the fuckers is a good thing. End of.
