Happy Face 29 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 How do football followers not have any inkling of the mindset a fellow supporter has? A mindset that says you support your team through thick and thin, one that has an element of pride in not missing a game in 10 years, 20 years however bad it got. We kept going after relegation we'll not stop because we're 8th and lost a few derbies. How can people not grasp that blokes don't want to go shopping with their Mrs on a weekend. They want to moan about football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 14767 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Some have a strange idea about just what the price of a season ticket entitles them to. Not a lot unless you're a fuckin lucky manc or north Londoner as far as I can make out... Edited February 2, 2014 by PaddockLad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 For us to challenge the top 4 we would need to spend £150m so thats out the question.I think i'm right in saying every place in the Premier League is worth £800,000.If Ashley had handed over the Cabaye money,we would still finish either 8th or 9th, so why invest £20m to secure another £800,000 by `guaranteeing' an 8th place finish.Southampton will claim 8th place because we will struggle to average a point a game from the 14 games left.With Cabaye gone,our creativity will have to come from HBA or hoofs from the back resulting in opposition mistakes.

If your happy with the way things are at the club thats fine if your not dont go its that simple no need for protests in the ground or marches. When we had the bedsheet protest a couple of years ago he soon got the message bad publicity is bad for business. Now if attendance's suddenly drop off and the media pick up on it. I would imagine half a dozen home games of 15,000 or less and he'd either put the club up for sale again or want some kind of dialogue with the fans remember if your not in the ground he's not taking your money.

I Don't have anything to do with Hugo Boss or John Galliano. Don't know any farmers who specifically try and destroy something I love. Generally they try to produce as high a quality product as possible otherwise people will stop buying them. Unlike NUFC who are providing the lowest possible product they can get away with.

Also how well do you think the team will do if the ground is half empty. We have seen he panics at the thought of relegation now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Some people may think its sour grapes for what happened in the transfer window but we know it's not . There's 3 main names running this club one wont speak to people the other's incapable of speaking to people and the third isnt allowed to speak to people what kind of a set up is that.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 You seem to be missing the point Trooper. It's a buyer we need, not a seller. Not that mass protests will ever happen, particularly when we are 8th in the league, but without a buyer no sale is going to happen. There's lot of season ticket holders who have seen way worse teams and times than these. Quality buyers are like hens teeth, don't hold your breath.

Sonatine 10096 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Newcastle boss Alan Pardew was left to face searching questions following Saturday's derby defeat to Sunderland. This is a transcript of his post-match press conference with newspaper reporters: Question: "It’s a tough question to ask you, but is the club, as it stands, capable of making permanent signings?" Pardew: "Well..." Press officer: "I think that’s an unfair one to ask the manager." Q: "But it’s two transfer windows without one now and Alan said..." Pardew: "I’ve got no comment to make on that one.” Q: "You said at the start of last week that the club can’t not replace Yohan, but that’s exactly what happened." Pardew: “I didn’t particularly say in this window though. I said, you know, we’ve got to get players of that class, there’s no doubt about that. So don’t try and angle that for this window because I think that’s unfair on me.” Q: "You said, and I quote: ‘We need to bring someone in, for sure. We can’t lose someone of his quality and not replace him. That would leave us vulnerable’. Do you stand by that?" Pardew: "Well, I’ve said it, ain’t I? But I’m meaning in the long-term as well as the short-term, that it’s the quality we need. And, you know, today has been a tough day for us and I don’t really want to add any more to it, to be honest.” Q: "Part of the problem you’ve got is that if you don’t speak out against not getting a replacement it makes it look as though you’re going along with the decisions the board is making and therefore you get criticism heaped on your shoulders and take the blame for that." Pardew: “Yeah, I’m a professional manager. You know, if I was in charge, solely, of transfers, the answer might be different, but I’m not.” Q: "It does feel sometimes that you’re being asked to manage with your hands tied behind your back." Press officer: “These are all quite unfair questions.” Q: "No they are not, it is the biggest issue. Unfortunately the manager is the only person who will speak for the club." (Silence) Q: "Alan, is there a collective blame for today, from the top of the club, right down to on the pitch?" Pardew: “The only way I can answer what has happened today is that it’s a disappointing day for the club.” Q: "What do you say to Mike Ashley and Joe Kinnear when you’re having those discussions on Friday and it’s clear you’re not going to get a replacement (for Cabaye)? Do you make your opinions clear on that?" Pardew: “I think I’ve made my opinion very clear this week and all the rest of it is confidentiality.” Q: "How do you lift yourself?" Pardew: “I’ll be alright.” (Walks off) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19930 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 fucking hell. i wonder how long he'll work for these muppets. he's done enough to get a job elsewhere with owners that don't leave him hanging out to dry year in, year out. how depressing that one day we will look back and wonder how we managed to attract a manager of pardew's level. pardew ffs, who else is going to want to work for this lot?
