Well barring a disaster of epic proportions we will be playing in Europe, which competition is yet to be decided but if the Spurs collapse continues and Arsenal beat Chelsea its in our hands. Who would have thought that at the beginning of the campaign? We have one of the best attacks in the league and in Tiote and Cabaye one of the best midfield partnerships, oh and not to mention the best Keeper too. If we get champions league I would like to think it will be an incentive for our best players to stay although no one(with maybe a few exceptions) can doubt if City or another club with untold riches come knocking with 20,30 mil offers and 150 grand a week contracts are offered then heads will get turned, that's a fact which doesn't make us a selling club or on the same scale as Bolton or West Brom. I hope the team stays together and we add some more quality and continue to push on, its hard to believe this is only the second season back in the premiership and I think Pardew is doing a great job and even Ashley has to be given some credit. I hope he's got some passion back and this season has proven we can compete even with modest investment in the RIGHT players.

Leazes, when did Newcastle United have the 14th largest revenues in football. Which dates exactly? Simple answer, here I will help Between 19** and **** I look forward to an un Andy Carroll related response

so where is the 25m quid left from the sale of Carroll, and what happened to the 14th biggest revenues in football ? Caught me by surprise with that response, I genuinely never saw that coming. Also was that 14th largest revenue after 2004? Haha Cock

Leazes slags Gemmill for saying Souness should have been backed but is allowed to go mental when he perceives Ashley isn't backing Pardew. Not quite sure how that logic works tbh Also fails to acknowledge ANY of the poor seasons towards the end of the previous regime while dismissing our best season in ages as a flash in the pan. Cock

Genius, could walk into any team on this form. He loves playing for us and Pards, you could see that when he came off. Love him

Where was the advantage? Give the freekick you mug

Hope BA scores today

Suspended already. Got mine in on all three first or anytime

Also Cisse 22-1 anytime scorer

Anyone with Stan James there's a fuck up, Cisse @ 66-1, Demba@50-1 and Ben Arfa at 40-1 first goal

Any deal for a lower league striker should include perennial fuck up Nile Ranger going the other way

was your bottom lip quivering when you went into work and saw those Liverpool "supporters" from Sussex on Monday morning ? No, why would it? Was yours when you walked in Saturday night and caught your Mrs banging your neighbour?

Or Real Madrid manager in waiting Allardyce, once he's completed his mission to keep West Ham from getting promoted

@ Stevie, great post and spot on @ Leazes, yaaaaawwwwnnnn

everybody is in debt. Not many clubs have the 14th biggest revenues in football though ........... Do we?

this "claptrap" is what you have described that I've told you for years, that you won't respond to and tell us exactly what has not happened that I said would happen. In a few years time, what I;m saying now will be happening too. In fact, qualifying for europe will only accelerate the realisation that the club will not strengthen the team but continue to sell top players and witthold backing from the manager, because if we qualify for europe we will most def need a stronger team and squad to cope with the extra games and "progress in the top flight". Or are you so dim you say this is "claptrap" too [because this is what I'm saying, meaning you clearly haven't read the updated thread before this post] Do you not think we are progressing? Do you think this side is better or worse than the one we had under Fat Sam? Or Souness for that matter?

He's like a kid with his birthday money, have to spend,spend,spend. Our policy has proven to be successful so far and its clear they will stick to it, hence Mariappa is still at Watford. Players are being scouted and researched before being signed, if anyone thinks this is a bad policy doesnt have a clue. I would be surprised if a CB and Full back aren't all but signed and a DM if Stevies Tiote facts are right. All this wheres the Carroll money bollocks is all he's got to cling to, sad twat

anyone who knows anything about football will know what I'm saying, because I've been saying the same things for years. if we keep all our top players, and speculate to improve the TEAM with the rest of the Carroll cash as it is still there to be given to the manager, plus any more from selling players surplus to requirements, plus what should be a normal transfer budget for a club with the 14th biggest revenues in football, then we SHOULD progress. This is not rocket science. Do you comprehend ? Why so hung up on the money? Cisse and BA are both superior to Carroll, he's been replaced with better players. Why does the cost matter so much to you?

Their best players this season have been Gerrard and Bellamy, net cost £0. Their transfer policy, with the exception of Enrique, has been complete gash. People getting hung up on the costs rather than the quality need to get a grip there's always next year Leazes supporting the scousers spending then, speaks volumes of the route he would like us to take. Spending big=guaranteed success, go on mention the Carling cup

Leazes will cover all his bases. This season will be a flash in the pan. If anyone of note is sold we are a selling club in decline, even tho we have progressed for the last 3 seasons, that doesn't register with him. If we don't sell anyone, buy some decent players and finish 5th then we won't be matching the previous regime chum. Seriously, you can't have a serious debate with him. All he's intent on is being proved right even when he's not. I would be surprised if he's never been in politics

Level on points with Chelsea who are 5th, certainly pushing for the Champions League spot, playing good,attacking football with one of the best front 3 in the league. If that's not progress then I'm not sure what's expected.

Your wasting your time trying to debate with this loon

Outstanding performance, watched it with my Liverpool supporting mate too. Was concerned about Perch and Williamson, needlessly now. Cisse is the nuts

Fergie on , CT gets the lube out and sends the Mrs out for a kebab
