Whats the point in giving him time ffs he intentionally plays players out of positions Enrique and Beye have often been dropped so that a centre back and a left winger can play in their position, but I'm sure he is only doing these random idiotic decisions now and he wont do them given time . His substitutions are Roeder-esque i mean we were playing 4-4-2 with one wide sided player on the pitch so he took that winger off for another one where is the sense in that? People also say "best start we've had in years" it has been the easiest start opposition wise we've had getting 2 points from playing derby, boro, reading and sunderland is definitely not good the only "top 8" teams we've played so far are pompey, man city and now Liverpool and we have been slaughtered by all three. Man City were in an almost identical position to us last season now look at them Sven seemingly hasn't "needed time". I mean we beat Liverpool in this fixture last season with hideous amounts of injuries whereas this season we didn't even get a shot on target how is that progress. As for who we get I don't know I just don't understand why people insist on giving Allardyce time because he's "established" Souness won more in his managerial career and people weren't willing to give him time (not saying I was wanting Souness to stay), maybe just get big Mike to give someone like Capello a massive wage to come here.

We've got liverpool blackburn and arsenal up next can anyone seriously see us getting any points out of them three matches?

Tactically inept idiot he really showed that today, leading goalscorer on the bench lol I know some people on here dislike Martins but he does score which is more than Smith.

That was just terrible fat sam thinks martins and owen dont work together because they are both short so he plays smith over martins because obviously smith is tall... He plays the left winger on the right wing and right winger on the left wing plays 2 slow defenders that fell apart against long ball tactics against a team which has bags of pace and like to play direct to benjani, then when he eventually decides to bring our top scorer on he takes the left back off despite smith being useless moves n'zogbia to left back puts martins left wing then brings emre on not for butt instead he takes milner off. Totally tactically shown up by Redknap today portsmouth are a good team but we didnt have to just give them the win. Oh and btw if we dont do better against the mackams too right i expect allardyce out chants in fact he should be sacked if we loose to those inbreds.

NEWCASTLE United have given Norwich City permission to speak to Lee Clark about joining the Championship club as part of Glenn Roeder's new coaching staff. Former Toon boss Roeder was named in charge of the Canaries this week and Lee has been allowed by United to speak to Carrow Road club about the position of assistant manager. Lee began his playing career with his beloved Newcastle United, making his debut in the 1990/91 season. He left St. James' Park in the summer of 1997, but after spells with Sunderland and Fulham he returned to Gallowgate at the start of the 2005/06 season under Graeme Souness. He was drafted into the coaching staff by Glenn Roeder when he replaced Souness, and as well as having first team duties he has also taken charge of Newcastle's Reserve side. off the official site btw

your a spazz, I bet Boudicca wasn't too pleased seeing your ancestors come over on boats, or do you believe your 100% British...

Well he's obviously been a hardcore chelsea fan for the past 2 years, glory hunting bastard

It was only 6 feet deep and there was two of them the risks on their lives was extremely low so if not wanting to risk their lives is their argument they deserve sacking. Actually they deserve sacking for not helping the 2 anglers, they acted so why couldnt these 2 tossers.

2nd half no changes...

The main worry is I really can't see where the goal is going to come from unless Martins comes on, this is a very negative team to play last seasons 6th best championship team. Why do we have so many defensive minded players and shola ameobi on the pitch? Pace would worry their defense they are obviously well drilled in defending against utter donkeys from when they were in the Championship we need Martins on or we'll loose.

And the one that didn't want Bellamy playing for Wales

It looked like number 21 from my seat.

You should never boo your own imo, I know it seems the only way to get at them but the only way to really get at them is through the media, phone in shows texts in papers these are fine but to hear thousands of your own booing your team doesn't help anyone.

Are some people on here fickle or what, maybe we didn't have the best of games but we looked very good defensively against some of the leagues fastest players (Young, Aboglahor) Zog was good imo ran up and down the wing all game only one that give milner any support tbh. Agreed that we need someone more creative in midfield but I think we will look alot better with Barton in the side and Butt out of it no idea how he got man of the match he was very average thought Milner more than deserved to win it. Anyway it's still a point against a gd strong Aston Villa with a very suspect referee. Anyway at least the Mackams finally got shown up and le Sib scored.

I heard a rumour he had Hepatitus B no idea if theres any truth in it probably just some 3rd rate ITK bollocks.
