Pub/sitting in the park with a bottle of cider, doesn't make any difference to the end result.

Absolutely pathetic from Leazes, given the amount of threads I have just seen with him as the last poster I assume he has rolled in from a day at the pub/s. You really are a bitter old man, seems your only enjoyment these days is having digs at anyone who dares to enjoy the football/results under Mike Ashley. As I said, pathetic.

Meanwhile Tim Krul isn't ever going to be nearly as prolific as Chilavert...

Speaking of learning from mistakes we (the fans) need to stop worrying about managers who MIGHT do better given some of abject failures we have had to put up with other the years. We should stick with what with have and try and get some sort of stability rather than picking apart every poor aspect of Pardew's gameplan.

We need 4 points from 5 games. Or Everton not to get 12 from 5 with us picking up 0

There are numerous examples of players being written off by know-all fans only for them to turn around their game and prove them wrong. Despite the fact that recently 'the worst player i've ever seen playing for us" (not my words) James Perch has been putting in more than competent performances, people still think that a young player cant develop. Its just a messageboard ffs and all that but the debate on forums/online contributes to the general perception of the player and it just doesnt do us or the player any good. A debate on where he can improve, what he needs to work on is much healthier than just calling him shite. Anyway the games keep getting bigger and bigger, i though last week was the biggest of the season but a win today is another massive step forward, i cant call the result but its a big one as victory today gives us a massive chance on monday to hit 59 points with 5 to play. That would be sensational stuff. Really excited about the match but its a shame we are so weakened. That does mean any sort of result is a great achievement though. Bit late to the party but spot on as usual.

Most improved would be quite a tough call too with Guthrie, Perch and Raylor (even Saylor tbh) all putting in exceptional performances based on what was expected. Probably Perch for me though, was pretty awful but has stepped it up massively and been one of the better players, outstanding.

He's fucking awesome. Ridiculous bargain, can't believe no-one else was in for him at £8m

Tbf that was pretty funny for CT

We sign those 3 players and we are really looking some side. Completely forget about Marveaux from time to time, will be a massive plus if he manages to stay fit. Looks to have some real quality about him. I doubt he would make the first 11 will all fit but players like him on the bench makes a huge difference when the game isn't going our way. Also will allow us to get some of the young lads out on loan getting some much needed experience.

Not a touch on either the players who replaced him Apparently stormed off out of the ground as soon as he was subbed too.

They talk about us losing top players because we have them. They can hardly talk about selling players anyway with Bent and Henderson going as soon as the money was offered. Difference is when we have sold a player we have generally replaced them with a better one where as they have bought experienced (over the hill) cast offs.

Aren't you a recently signed up member Ant? Even made the effiort to introduce yourself I reckon 12 going by April Fools protocol.

Can't see CT being a 32 waste, isn't he 5ft 8 and near 14 stone? "32 inch waste baby!!"

Good point

Agreed.

What a bunch of pretentious, pompous, supercilious, arrogant wankers you lot are, epitomised by Monsieur Given. Get over yerselves man! I defy anyone to say they heard that lineup today and thought that pardew had got it right. We had a team out there who had no clue where they were playing or what their role was. You can't complain about 3 points but it should have been more comfortable than that. I posted (so have evidence) that it was a good line up and the only change I would have made was Santon for Simpson. We won 3-1 and missed a one on one. Maybe I am some sort of genius, or more likely not just really, really negative?

Both spot on.

It helps that Cisse is 7ft 9 and able to get on the end of this hoofball football.

Happy Birthday mate.

Religion has always baffled me.

Tecato, already had a pint with the others I would like to meet and there are a couple I really wouldn't
