why do we always sign such complete arseholes. not only can they not play football but they're mostly obnoxious twats off the field too. nobby was a rare exception to the rule....a likeable player.....and we sell him.

Shearer ready to step in with Allardyce one game from the sack
Dr Gloom replied to Jimbo's topic in Newcastle Forum
one word that best sums up the atmosphere at st james for me these days: bitter. -

let's just hope she makes it worth your while for having to sit through two and a half hours of that -

No. It's just the same as with Roeder. People tearing their hair out and screaming blue murder with no kind of objectivity or alternative. Whatever happened to this kind of attitude.... Quoted for truth. Do people REALLY think we've gone backwards? Are you as unhappy with Allardyce as you were with Roeder? Serious question. I think that attitude went out the window with the bizarre tactics. As for your question, it's hard to say. I knew Roeder wouldn't do wel so it was always a case of waiting until a better alternative came along. With Allardyce, at least I had faith in him doing a half decent job. I think he might just turn it around in the next couple of matches though. Unless we're in serious trouble SA needs to be weighed up at the end of the season imo or at least till after the christmas window. There are no quick fixes in football. I agree actually but I also think he needs to prove he can put right the problems at the club and fast. Or we will be in serious trouble. I know we've got points 'in the bank' but we've shown relegation form of late and the performances have matched the results. I don't actually believe that he's off if we lose to Arsenal though. i thought we were unlucky against blackburn. if we put in many more performances like the one we did against liverpool we will be in trouble. Yeah, we were a bit unlucky against Blackburn but we were still well beaten in the end. We've got 1 point from 18 and we were lucky to get a draw off the Mackems. You couldn't say we deserved anything out of the other matches either. nah. i was starting to lose faith with sam after the liverpool game because it looked like he'd lost the players as well as the fans. at least he got them playing on saturday. so it was a blow to lose again but i think reports of him losing the dressing room at such an early stage could be 'wide of the mark'. if that was the case and we kept on losing in the manner we did to liverpool then sam would under serious pressure. that said, the next three or four games are vital for him. i doubt many people expect us to get anything against arsenal but if we put in a performance and then pick up points in the following games, he could easily turn things around quickly. most of us have short memories when we're winning

15 games isn't long enough. there are many examples of managers over the years doing nothing for their first season or two before turning things around once they've had time to build a squad....ferguson at manure and sir bobby for us to name just two. there's no way of knowing whether sam will be a success for us but at least give him a season or two to see. constant chopping and changing does the club no good. the only way i'd advocate sacking the manager in his first season would be if we were in a genuine relegation battle. we're not. i can see sam doing at least as well as the rodent last season. if we finish lower than we did last season then he's going to be under pressure in his second year in charge but ffs, don't sack the man after 15 games.

i'd be looking for something second hand at that price tbh mate.

Flying lessons top marks for originality -
assuming you've got one i'm in a need of a little inspiration this year and would like avoid schleping around oxford st if at all possible. but what christmas present do you get for a women that already has everything? anyone got any suggestions? i was thinking a watch but the ones i like are all north of £1k ....or maybe a personal shopping day at selfridges, but that's almost like buying your nan a gift basket from the body shop - total indication that you can't think of anything original. anyone got any thoughts on the subject? what are you getting your other half this year?

Newcastle's 'vicious' fans shock me, says Barton
Dr Gloom replied to Jimbo's topic in Newcastle Forum
barton should keep his mouth shut until he's put in at least one decent performance for us. then he might have half a leg to stand on. cretin -
i went to stoke to watch doncaster rovers get promoted to the football league a few years back with a mate of mine who's a big donny fan. i can confirm it's a shithole....especially the area near the ground.

probably aretha

what about simply red? nah, just kidding. joy division would be ahead of oasis for me though
-
no way. hot and sour is far superior

the only time to sack a manager afte 15 games is if you're really struggling in the bottom 3. i think we'll be safe, so it's only right we give sam more time. i'm far from convinced that he's the right man to take us forward but he's only been here 5 minutes and at least we showed a bit of fight yesterday.
-
me too. would love a link to live stream of the game if anyone's got one. cheers in advance

not bt. it's rubbish. i'm with sky at the moment; they're cheaper, faster and much more reliable
