They've got a seasons head start and were still gonna get top ten before them

Ha!

 

Fuckin' killing you lot.

deary me, all this because of an article

[gpirlo68 0]

 

Yep, looks that way.

 

That said, I cbf with any more of this so I've gone straight for ignore with this one now.

 

In other news, I've been following the Guardian's coverage of Rafa being hired and there's so much positivity and well wishing from other fans (Liverpool in particular). In amongst this sea of good feeling is the odd bemused mackem trying to tear it down and totally confused at why no one else is doing the same thing. Presumably because "we're a national laughing stock". Doesn't look that way.

Having a look on facebook through various pages, (sky sports etc) all I saw was nice comments about Newcastle tbh and how they think Rafa is going to take us back up.

[NigelFarage 0]

Stabilise? We have one of Europe's best coaches, money to spend and no pressure to sell anyone. I don't think we need much stabilisation.

 

We now have a season to blood some youth and change the ethos in the team while walking the Championship. You on the other hand have another season of fighting relegation.

 

I know who I'd rather be supporting.

 

 

Fuck me, you could do with some pressure to sell the lot of 'em. Seen more fight when picking me Grandma up from the over '60s.

 

You lot are on some serious mind bending drugs. You're over the moon there is no pressure to sell a load of players who have just royally shafted you.

 

If ever there was a symbol (or symptom) of Geordie logic that is it.

 

You lot deserve everything you get.

Aye, it's weird actually, I'm so used to us getting pelters in the press Not really arsed either way like, but still.

 

Here's the article in the Graun for anyone interested in the well wishing:

EDIT - copied some below: even one from a mackem

 

Newcastle Utd are a sleeping giant of a club who have under achieved for decades, now finally they have a manager who can wake them up. If Ashley fulfills his side of the bargain and backs Benitez transfer targets 100%, Newcastle Utd will be winning trophies within two years. I'm so confident that Benitez will bring success to Newcastle I'm willing to come back here in two years time to be held accountable if my prediction fails... Btw, I'm not some crazy Newcastle supporter, I've seen Benitez and his commitment to his work close-up, MARK MY WORDS, back this man and anything is possible. Over to you Mike Ashley!

 

I knew it. Good on you Rafa and good on the Toon. From a Liverpool fan.

 

I'm a Sunderland fan - may as well put that on the table. Mike Ashley is one of the biggest tools in the business and he has done his level best to systematically ruin a big club with great support. He said he regrets getting into the football business and I hope he sells up at the earliest opportunity, indeed if Newcastle are promoted back to the BPL I think he may just do - fingers crossed for the Black and Whites, they deserve better than Ashley, the man is a tool.

 

And this, just because it impressed me:

 

Rafa and his family still live in an everyday, middle class area, of The Wirral. His kids go to the local state school. His wife spends her time doing community work.

Seriously, they're a class act

Put it this way, I couldn't care less what Everton or Leeds or Arsenal do - so why should they care about what we do?

 

Only in your idiotic world is there some solace in being laughed at by emotional sadists.

 

And the reason? The obvious one. You've been shouting about how special you are for some time now and no one likes a show off.

The way you all latch on to any club that doesn't openly hate you and talk about the special relationship you have with them tells us all that you're desperate to be noticed. Your desperation to work out which celebrity is a "lads fan" and which one isn't.

 

You want to be wanted, that's fine, it's a natural human emotion. And it's why it kills you that you have to scratch around for attention whilst we don't even have to try. It just comes naturally to us.

 

But let's pretend that I'm wrong and what you're really after is a period of quiet unnoticed consolidation (your word) under the mighty Sam Allardyce. Well I hope you enjoy it. I would honestly rather kill myself.

Aye it's boring now tbh, it's all been said and it's not like either side is going to budge from their position so what's the point?

[NigelFarage 0]

pick one

 

you mackems live to hate us so much that you cant even hide it when you try, sad as fuck like - and thats why you will be forever in our shadow.

 

Pick one what?

 

Don't hate you at all. Laughing at you? Yeah course I am, I have a few hours to kill and stumbled upon this, but hate? Nahh. As I say, our attention is focused elsewhere these days.

 

I'll probably glance at your results, particularly the Burton double header.

You only finished one place above us and now you are 'on the way up' The truth is you were just slightly less shit than us.

I was a season ticket holder back then, it was fucking dreadful stuff. They're welcome to him, I'm happy with Rafa so I'm not sure what them coming on here and screaming on about how they'd far rather Allardyce and that Rafa is 'over the hill' is going to accomplish, it doesn't bother me that they're simply wrong.

The way you were going on you were keeping all you 'star' players - the same 'star' players who looked like they'd rather be anywhere else.

 

You were suggesting it was a positive that you were under no pressure to sell a pack of chancers.

 

You've finally got what you deserve: 'star' names with nothing to offer except take the money.

You really are one of our dimmer visitors. You said that we had to worry about becoming a Sheffield United. My point was that we are under no financial pressure, you fuckwit. Edited May 26, 2016 by ewerk

I don't get this whole stance a lot of mackems have taken in constantly saying "they've just thrown money at Rafa", what does that prove? They threw a ton of money at Dick Advocaat and I'm fairly sure Allardyce isn't working for free. It's honestly about time we invested in a manager after years of having ones that earned among the least in the league.

You're either incredibly thick or being deliberately obtuse. Either way you're fulfilling the stereotype.

I'll say this for you. You've found the perfect manager to run your club. One of the biggest cunts in British football and a soulless retail park of a man is the perfect choice to run the Carpetright of NE football.

[gpirlo68 0]

I doubt we'll do a Sheffield United like, there in the third division

 

Only Sunderland know about that

On the way up

 

Over the course of a season but not over the second half of the season with the current team. You'll find with a couple of bargains the big fella turned us in to a team capable of scrapping and playing a bit, and ultimately getting points.

 

Keep on at this rate and the future's bright....for one of us.
