😂 Well I can only apologise. Clearly you must have been forced, Clockwork Orange style, to read my comment. That must have been traumatising for you. Ask someone you trust to give that stick a good pull.

That point is looking very good after Villa's comeback. The result and performance will have given the Fulham's players confidence an absolute kicking. As people have said it will likely be more down to Fulham's incompetence than our form if we stay up. Wolves are coming off two defeats against Liverpool and Citeh, and have West Ham tomorrow, so Fulham will hopefully be seen as an important game for them to get some points to guarantee their premier league status, and us the same against an indifferent Burnley next weekend. Some people think that it's a lose, lose whether we stay up or go down because the cabbage will be kept on regardless, but I don't see it that way. If we stay up I don't think even Ashley is thick enough to risk another relegation which will wipe 100m minimum off the clubs value. I honestly think his wrong headed logic is that I fired managers at this stage before, and we went down, so I'll do the opposite. The truth of course is that he should never have hired Bruce, and should have fired him early this year. All that craic about him giving Bruce a new contract if we stay up is likely for two reasons, to wind us up, and to perhaps give Bruce some more authority with the team. Who fucking knows when we'll be sold, but we will eventually, and being in the premier league makes it a hell of a lot more likely.

Cabbage referred to Joelinton as "the whipping boy" 😬. Is it possible we can just get the cunt cancelled?

I think he's forgetting that he's supposed to be from "up here". But alas he's just a poor boy from a poor family from Manchester in all reality. More Manc than the rain the cunt.

You can't say that wasn't a vast improvement, apart from the usual shite from Krafth. Spurs going for a champions league spot with Kane etc, that's a great point. Now if we go to Burnley next week and play like we did against Brighton etc, then it will have been for almost naught.

Was that half a pretty big improvement from Brighton? Yes. Is that saying very much? No. Krafth isn't a fucking premier league, and probably not even championship level player. Clark does have the odd mistake in him, but he's objectively a much better player than Krafth will ever be as proven once again today. Another woeful selection decision by Bruce. At least he swallowed his pride somewhat and played S. Longstaff who I thought was very composed for the assist. You can be guaranteed that Hendrick would have conspired to fuck that up in the same position. That is if it's even likely he'd put himself in such a dangerous position in the opposition box. Would have bit your hand off for a point beforehand given our current form and with the cabbage in charge, but even though it's still only 2-1, and Spur's defence looks very shaky, Kane, Son etc will likely always get at least one more.

So there were "frantic" meetings today between Cabbage and Penfold. I have an inside source on this, and it turns out that the tea lady forgot the double chocolate hobnobs. She was fired on the spot.

Were you watching the match on sky last night? One of the commentators actually said we'd be happier in the bottom three than where we are now if played more attractive football 😐 The level of ignorance is astonishing. Either that or these so called experts are just making obviously counter factual statements to generate anger clicks for want of a better phrase. Then again I shouldn't attribute to malice what I easily attribute to incompetence. Obviously there's little point in talking about Merson's recent comments, he's obviously long fried his brain with all the booze and coke, not that he was likely ever a contender for the brain of Britain. At least Stelling pretty much apologised on twitter. Those Newcastle fans love to be entertained was another gem, as if other football fans aren't bothered if their team plays like shite.

The real tin foil hat theory is that Ashley thinks he'll also be able to recoup the lost value on the club because of relegation from the Premier League, given they, supposedly, illegally stopped the sale to the Saudi's. But the aforementioned of course is clutching at the entirety of the US agricultural output of straw.

One of the Sky commentators did actually point something useful out, in between trading in ridiculous cliches about what we supposedly demand as fans, when he said that Bruce and his coaches seemed to be making decisions by committee on the touchline. I think it's very likely that Bruce was asked to bring another coach in with Jones or be sacked, and now we don't have actually have one leader on the coaching side in the dressing room. That's likely a large part of why players are disillusioned and don't seem to give a fuck, again because the coaching side of things is a fucking shambles.

Bruce in post match interview : I've never ran away from a fight. I'm not a quitter and I won't quit now. Translation : I've never left a job without a payoff or another job lined up, and I won't start now, it's not like I actually give a fuck about Newcastle or am actually a real supporter of them.

They've stopped playing for Bruce, and in certain respects I can't really blame them.

If we were going to lose we may as well lose big. There's only so much that even Ashley can ignore for fear of having to spend money. I hope Brighton score another few. Although goal difference could be problem of course, but getting rid of Bruce is more important.

Fucking Sky commentators actually seem like they're trying to wind us up, but they're just fucking clueless and believe every cliche about us as usual. Apparently we'd be happier even if we were in the bottom three if we played more attractive football.

I used to hate the international break and having to wait two weeks for the next fixture. The one silver lining of having Bruce as manager is that's been beaten out of me.

Shelvey and Hendrick, the fucking even less funny version of the Chuckle Brothers.

If we lose from here, which seems highly likely, or even scrape a jammy draw, and this shite doesn't get Bruce the sack, it will be the most illogical non-firing of a manager I can remember in my lifetime. Only Ashley would help orchestrate such a fucking unwanted oddity in football. A big problem we do have is that even if he does sack Bruce it will likely be Jones who takes over as the cheap option. Although in fairness who that is decent would take over at this stage. I know some of us, including myself were quick to jump on the Jones train, mostly because anything looks better than Bruce and of course that Everton win, but this split striker shite is wank. And according to Rob Lee, who's son played in the Luton side that Jones was coaching, that split striker nonsense is definitely his doing. It might work with the right players, but persisting with it without the right players is madness. Of course maybe it's Bruce who wants to persist even with so many injuries.

Commentator : Newcastle fans of course love to be entertained. What you mean like every other football fan.

“Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”

Confirmed line up: Dubravka, Manquillo, Lascelles, Clark, Dummett, Hayden, Shelvey, Willock, Almiron, Fraser, Joelinton Lets hope Manquillo has a good game 😉 Murphy probably deserved a start, but he's good option off the bench to keep in reserve. If I had to guess the plan is likely to give Almiron an hour or so, bring Murphy on, and play Joelinton through the centre as opposed to wide on the right. Only Bruce knows why Shelvey is still worthy of a place.

It's over to us then, but we couldn't have asked for a better start to this weekend. Well Leeds messing up their goal difference a bit more would have been nice obviously. Of course I really shouldn't get my hopes up that we'll actually capitalise on this. Bruce is likely looking at this result and thinking, well I'm definitely parking the bus tomorrow, as opposed to 99% certain.

Fucking great player, don't know what you're talking about 😉 😂 Edit. Fucking VAR, I could cry so I'm going to choose to laugh manically instead.

There's likely still the misapprehension that if you are an international that automatically makes you at least a half decent player. But as Roy Keane recently said, if you can trap a ball you can represent your country nowadays.
