Christmas Tree

loaded son loaded (wae the cold) aye though the roads be broad or narrow and so on Apologise for nothin pal. Positive. Gallowgate. Neither. Quick, change it to negative or your fucked.

Take as I find. Are we glad Hughton got a second go? Are we glad Barton found his way(ish) to redemption? I will judge Pardew on what he does here.

Apologist or real fan? Positive or Negative? Leazes or Gallowgate? Pardew or Ferguson?

Yes, yes you were

Thread finished, CT. I think TF is a very one sided negative read these days. I used to pop over to their website and read the main feature, however its now just constant depressive reading tbf. A lot of crap gets written about AP mainly down to who he works for rather than the bloke himself. For starters, people slag him off for supposedly been in place for the job before CH got the chop. (he denies of course), but how often when a manager gets the chop do a proper club have someone lined up. Im sure had Alex Ferguson replaced Fat Sam within an hour we wouldnt have give two shits if he was tapped up in advance. With regard to Pardew himself, he is working within the set up agreed at the time he was appointed. He is there to get the best out of the players he is given. Not a lot different to many managers apart from a select few. He seems very passionate about getting things right, the players speak well of him and he isnt afraid to throw youngsters in and make substitutions during the game. His patter is fine when interviewed and actually adds a bit of character back. He has come across as very honest at the club for example when he talks about the senior management having lied to the fans. I know its not popular with some, but I like him, particularly given the owner we have. Its his first full season and he has my full backing (which Im sure he'll appreciate). Thread alive and kicking sort of what happens when you report on something that is a pile of wank currently @AP - nope he's a crap manager with a shady past (nothing to do with tapping up), and then he got into bed with the twats above after stabbing a manager in the back... basically he went from frying pan to fire to on the floor buttery side down. I'm a good liar i could convince people i'm passionate about things, doesn't mean I am. You liking him says it all. Says it all really ....... #seething

Oh dear Tom can give it but cant take it. ...... I wouldnt care, I always had him down as a taker.

Thank you Dr G Can I just say I think its time you "let go" of your gloom and got a new name for this season. Something like Dr brightening up..... You could actually change it after each match to reflect our overall mood. It would also keep Leazes on his toes.

Surely we can all have a laugh

Thanks for the support.

Probably having drinks in The Strawberry as we speak. (type).

Thats shit snakey and must be fucking horrible. Hopefully if he's got your genes he'll be out of harms way and putting the moves on some private benjamin.

Aye, a canny turn out. No suprises for guessing Im manager of Team Positive. At least Tom cant get his hands on that. Unlucky Bev.......but I bet it felt good for a day

Dress it up with a few insults but I can see the lurveee. Unfortunately this is what happens when children are made Admin. If you want to argue your point, do it, but dont slag someone off then run off crying like a little girl when they slag you off back. Quite astonishing Admin behaviour over something as bad of me as suggesting we go 4,5,1 against the Mackems given our crap attack. A position I might add that he later agreed with. And I also suggested that we played a pretty crap Arsenal team by their standards. Again, a view that I think has been repeated by Fans, Journalists and pundits alike. Can only put it down to puberty.

Getting a bit sad all this picking on Deano, particularly bearing in mind he's only a young lad. He is a damn site more interesting than a lot who pass this way, has a laugh and doesnt go out of his way to slag people off. At least he's bothering to express how he feels about the club which is the point of this place really.

Read it properly fat boy... I did read it write shirley. You call me a clueless wum when I suggest we change the formation to 451 and then several posts later you suggest we change it to 451. Clueless Tit

Two people wrote him off in the match thread this morning.....unbelievable really.

So again, agreeing with my first post ;) :D You have been drinking.

Sunderland DID score yesterday and we had zero creative attacking play. Its pretty simple Tom. I would rather we went into the game with a decent chance of winning, not hoping we can sneak a goalless draw. Toms right like CT. The mackems were shite yesterday and were lucky to get a draw. You seem to have lost your positivity fella I have the utmost faith that Cabaye will become the creative force through the middle, drive and delivery down the right from Barton. Tiote will step up again and Jonas will run and run and run and... The big decision is who starts upfront. Has to be Ba and Best for me. Maybe even Vuckic and Ba. Then again...we will have a new striker in wont we? So one up front and a more creative midfielder!!!!! Thats what I said in the first post you numpty

We were playing a pretty shitty Arsenal team by their standards, Sunderland were playing a vastly improved Liverpool team. So just for the record, you would make no changes for next week?

One of us is certainly clueless Tom. I think the vast majority at yesterdays match will agree with me that we had no goal threat and that we should make changes for the next game. Most with any sense will also agree we would be better having an extra creative spark in midfield and playing with one up front. Have you been drinking btw?

I think when you hear how its ruined Stevies whole match day experience you cant help but feel for the fans who have been shifted. However for pockets of evictees to suddenly expect equally long term fans to suddenly have to stand for 90 minutes just to be able to see is very unfair.

If we go with the same line up as yesterday then I think we'll be fucked. Drop Jonas, Drop Ameobi, 1 up front and an extra creative midfielder just behind and I think we'll sneak it 2-1.
