    Wanna put some money on it? I assert that; If Aarons goes in the summer, he'll be approached by a team that is average or better (By English Premier League standards).
  2. The Fish
    You disagree that Rolando Aarons would be picked up by an average Premier league club if he were to see out his contract? Because that's why I said. You disagree that he believes he's good enough to win a starting place in the Premier league? Because that's why I said. Oh and you didn't take anybody to task on anything, old bean. Hope this helps.
  3. The Fish
    I probably will do, but remind me if I forget.

    Read my post again. I said that he'll believe he can start games, so why would he choose to stay with Newcastle in the Championship. Stay off the lunchtime buckfast binge mate
  5. The Fish
    What's your problem now, cockbreath?
  6. The Fish
    It's like people are actually voting for Richard Littlejohn
  7. The Fish
    If he doesn't sign, he could be picked up by someone like Everton, or maybe a bigger club will take a punt on a free, promising youngster. He'll believe he's good enough to get enough 1st team action, no matter where he goes. So why would he stay for guaranteed 1st team games in the Championship, when he could get 1st team games in the Premier League?

    Well, objectively, based on results, Norwich and sunderland have 24pts from 28 games, Swansea have 27 from 27. That's 0.86 and 1.00 PpG. Newcastle have 24pts from 26 games, 0.92 PpG.

    Sure, but they're all basically the badguys from Making a Murderer, Deliverance or A Time to Kill

    They are. And I don't doubt that they're difficult games. But it's still 2 extra fixtures where we could get points. Norwich, sunderland, Swansea would all love the chance to add to their points total with an extra 2 fixtures.

    And a lot more money, if I'm not mistaken.

    He'd probably have accepted less if we were guaranteed to be in the top flight next season. As it stands, I can't blame him for wanting a move, nor can I blame the club for holding off on offering a big contract to someone who, as you say, has only played a few good games for us and has a suspect injury record.
  15. The Fish
    Yeah He beat them 4-1 at their gaff in April last year, but then this season he lost 0-1 at home in November to a Defoe goal, apparently

    I think this is the crux of the difference between us. I look at the wins and good performances against West Brom, Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs, Stoke etc. for hope, you look at the losses and poor performances (of which there are many) for doom. I'd say the answer will likely lie somewhere in between. We've 2 games in hand as the table stands and people were sure we'd be 3points adrift by now, but the other relegation teams are just as shit as we are and have remained within reach. An unlikely win against Stoke and we're level on points with Swansea, with a game in hand. A draw will take us out of the relegation zone. Even the likely loss means we're still level on points with 17th.
  17. The Fish
    As long as we can win our home games against the bad teams in the league we'll stay up. We can benefit from trips to Norwich & Villa as well.
  18. The Fish
    Braggadocio aside, I'm about 60% confident of survival.
  19. The Fish
    This place has been fucking dead lately.
  20. The Fish
    Basically. Aye. Look at how shit the rest of the teams are. We're not cut adrift like Villa. Our form isn't as bad as Norwich, Palace, Villa, sunderland or Stoke. We've an easier run in than most. We've 6 home games left. We're only in the relegation zone on goal difference.
  21. The Fish
    Of the 12 teams we're to face, 6 of them are in the bottom 7 (we're the 7th from that group), we're not alone at the bottom of the league; the rest of them are shit too. I expect to win enough games to stay up. How can I do this without expecting to beat teams?
  22. The Fish
    Not talking about anticipating the loss at Stoke, you're not expecting to ever win a game in this division? That's Hyperbole. We have shown we can beat anyone, even in this shitty season we've beaten one of the favourites to be champions in their own backyard. I expect to win 4 out of the 6 games we have against the bottom 6 at least.
  23. The Fish
    What's with the focus on the time he had to be at training, and the fine for failing to do that? Is it establishing a timeline? Building an image of him as a liar?
  24. The Fish
    We haven't beaten anybody in this league since January 2015?
  25. The Fish
    Hyperbole-tastic.
