Ridiculous

Gimme the prize!

Compared to Allardyce, Souness et al? Not really, no. But they went because they were shit, and worth paying off for the good of the football. This way, it's us as a club picking up the bill for a dispute between the fat cunt, the dwarf and the dummy-spitter. £4m send-off for 8 months work is perfectly fine, why continue for as much as you can get if you 'love the club', considering the position it's in? "and the dummy-spitter" Were you around at the time KK pulled us up from the shit as a player or manager? I just can't understand any Mag coming out with that shit who was there then. Wether you think he walked a bit prematurely is one thing, but to call him a dummy spitter? Fucking talksport and the likes of cabbage-head Woolnough really must get into some peoples minds. I'd expect that from brain dead sheep supporting another club. well said Agree 100%, some of my fellow Toon fans really worry me sometimes!

It's like a mini extinction event without the dinosaurs

I suppose there's no reason that he couldn't train with a team though or coach for that matter.

How's that work then? Surely it was a lot easy beating a youth team than it would have been against a real first team?

With the players we put out it was more like a pre-season friendly, bless em, lol!

Just seen this, lol, "The blue Brazil"

Not short-changed by Keegan in the slightest, for the same reasons that others have mentioned.

Oo-er, wonder what's caused that? More to the point would they just let him go from his contract? And would he want to? I mean at 35 he could just as well hang out in their reserves until they sack him, if he's getting £10m over 5 years or whatever it is it's not really going to be a hardship for him is it. Was he gash against Morecombe btw?

Yeah, just a shame we lost it to a bunch of cockwipes like Peterborough I guess.

Shit ref by the sounds of it too

I look forward to the league match when we put out our first team and wipe the floor with them.

Lol, the Peterborough fans think they've won the cup, they seem to be forgetting we're fielding our youth team

Which one are you listening to bud? Radio newcastle Are you listening through the bbc webby? If so they cut the commentary during matches due to the club having internet broadcasting rights, you have to pays subs to listen

Which one are you listening to bud?

Annnnnd they're off!

The best post in this thread tbh

Clearly touting himself for the manager's job

It's a shame because both Charters and the Cherry Tree used to be good pubs when I used to venture out that way on a night out, both still doing the live band thing. Couldn't tell you which pubs are away fan friendly tbh, in general Peterborough's a right shithole, full of chavs and immigrants (not that I'd expect the immigrants to be that bothered with the footy, there's just a lot of them). Good luck to those going, if anyone needs to know where anything is while you're there feel free to PM me.

I picked Smith & Guthrie, basically because I believe Barton is one of the players who doesn't want to fight for the cause, just an overpaid pro collecting an wage he doesn't deserve. Both Smith and Guthrie look like they want to play for us.

I live about 10 miles from Peterborough but I'm still not going, Posh have got to have some of the most annoying staff and irritating local media going. I'd rather we put out a youth team for this one, we need to concentrate on the league imo and the less distractions outside of that and the fewer risks to first teamers the better. You can believe Peterborough will be treating this like a cup final. They've got ideas way above their station so any win, even over our youth team, will be dished out as if they're good enough to win the Prem - it's funny though, their fans aren't usually that bad but the local media surrounding them and Darren Ferguson really give them an image of loving themselves too much. They're a nothing club, the biggest recent thing in their history was an near court case they had with Mrs Beckham over rights to use the name 'Posh'.

I like the Goomba

I don't think a decent manager in his right mind would have touched us with a barge pole, hence Tourettes/OAP/Angina-attack-waiting-to-happen/Walter Mitty......aka, Joe 'fucking' Kinnear. (ex-Tottenham). ANd why would no decent manager touch us with a barge pole? Ashley and his cronies... I rest my case m'lud.

Exactly
