shouldn't it be a man slaughter charge?

Official Match Thread - Birmingham 1-1 Newcastle
Dr Gloom replied to khay's topic in Newcastle Forum
martins was unlucky to be subbed last night like. i thought he was lively second half - keegan would have probably gone for the win and kept him on if we weren't struggling so badly. we were the only side in it second half but a point was a good result in the end. the next game is massive. we've got to beat fulham and hope bolton keep on losing. -
can these rumours kindly fuck off. thanks

did he find a black and white shirt once all night yesterday? and why was he allowed to keep on taking corners when they all hit the first man? so frsutrating - even larry robert had a better success ratio than that. n'zogbia must have been scratching his head seeing geremi start ahead of him. martins didn't deserve to be subbed either

Dan you clueless twat, Viduka's heritage is croatian Australian! Your lot didn't get the chance to deport them for stealing bread. you're australian? that explains a lot
-
not worth £8m in a million years but i also reckon he's one worth keeping because he's a tryer plus he's gt a bit about him; it's just his lack of pace that lets him down as a winger. crying out for a move inside - i reckon he'd do a job in the bearsdely role just behind a striker or as an attakhing midfielder.

since when was torres an overweight convict?

i fancy a barca v liverpool final

serious question. are you optimistic about our survival chances, given our form this year? i don't think anyone is unduly panicing here...
-
agreed. it would total turd

... on second thoughts. that isn't really funny is it. quite scary in fact

what exactly is there to be positive about at the moment?

Worse than the likes of Amadady Faye, Boumsong or Luque? I'm everything but a fan of Smith because of his volatile style, but saying he is the worst signing of recent years is way over the top iyam. my opinion of course but i'd put smith on par with all of the above. he came with a big price tag, and as a striker not to have scored one goal all season, he'll be one of the main reasons why we go down (if we do). you won't stay up if your strikers don't score goals. Smith is a decent player playing crap in a crap team. He was just not what we needed when we signed him. I have no doubt he would perform better with the players around him doing better as well. The not scoring argument is a bit too simplistic for me. I wouldn't be bothered about his scoring record if his all around game benefited his striking partners, which actually was the case in some of the game he played up front. Anyway how many games did he play up front in total and against which teams? i've no idea. but i know he's started a fair share of them up front. and he's been a first choice starting lineup all season. to not register one goal as an attacking player (even one who plays in midfield as well as up front) is pretty pathetic, especially as he cost £7m. he's definitely one of the premiership's biggest flops of the season and one of our worst value for money buys - and god knows there have been a few of those in recent times.

i think we'd get around 35k in the championship. that's our hardcore support. a smaller crowd would actually probably improve the atmosphere

i love a tryer. but if he's going to play up front it helps if he can pitch in with the occasional goal. smith is definitely our worst signing of recent years. imagine the stick he'd be getting as a striker who has played most of our games this season without scoring if he was a foreigner

fucking hard league to get out of. day trips to palace and hull and getting up early on sunday to watch the championship highlights? no thanks. relegation would be a disaster of the highest order. wednesday have been languishing in the lower leagues for the best part of a decade. we could go the same way
-
I still think nine points from the home games against Fulham, Reading and Sunderland should be enough. Problem is only that another poor result against Birmingham could put the state of confidence beyond repair. well; there's that and the fact that it'll probably put us in the bottom three. we need to keep this in our own hands. i wouldn't want to rely on other clubs dropping points to stay up

if we lose against brimingham i can see us going dowm. they're the games we have to be getting something at

never rated him. will be glad to see him gone, even at a significant loss.

how low can you go?

you think this thread is overly gloomy given our current situation?
