Stoke City v Newcastle United - Official Buildup/Matchday Thread

So its 5 wins in 29. Lol

 

Pretty **** like...

 

Why are people having a go at Pardew?! The players are chronic, and to be fair, his system has had us playing some decent football this evening. The players we've brought in are absolutely useless in the final third. Cabella is awful, Riviere is like the invisible man... Obertan and Sammy showing them up. It's an embarrassing indictment of our once vaunted scouting department. Sack them, if anybody

Can we get the "let's wait and see on Cabella" crap out the way now, because it's bollocks. We've waited, we've seen, he's terrible.

 

8 away games in a row without a goal from a Newcastle player in the PL! That's 24 games where we've gone behind and managed to lose 19 or 20 of 'em.

 

You know you're in trouble when Obertron is your biggest attacking threat.

 

Because he keeps picking the same players even though they have shown literally nothing all season and before. Manager picks the team - if they are playing rubbish then change the lineup!

 

We're a Championship side, that's for sure. Forget blame, whatever, as it stands we're a relegated team. Be nice to see if we're still the same with Pardew out, mind, so can we at least reserve judgement til then? Seems fair.

 

I don't even feel anything anymore, not angry, sad, depressed, just empty...

 

'We was unlucky when we hit the post'
'Cheick looked tired tonight with all his bigamy'
'The grass was a bit longer than we would have hoped'

Iiiiit's bingo time!

 

Yeah. Obertan our best player..because he's headless. The rest... just fearful..too afraid to take on a man or run anywhere. Pathetic. Stoke had a bad day. No chance we're staying in the league on that account.

Could have gone on playing all night without scoring.

 

I assume your taking the piss with your opening sentance. Let me restate a fact.... 5 wins in 29. That nearly a full season with 5 wins. And please do some research and look at who the five wins where against. We are pish and look like getting relegated by 30 games this season.

 

He has to go ...The fat controller's PL investment is looking very shaky

 

Yeah, that's when we went for it. But too many astray passes and as one of commentators said, we just haven't got enough up front. Until January, excepting young Aarons coming back into the team, that's all we've got.

 

This.
Simply not emotional about it all anymore.

 

Ashley seemed to have a resigned look on his face at the end.
He cant possibly be enjoying watching the games the way we're playing.

 

This - Stoke were mediocre at best.

 

This. As has been said, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Pardew's fcking beyond cray cray.

Sissoko, no winger. Gouffran's useless. 4-2-3-1 is not working. Riviere's not a lead striker. Neither's Cisse. It's confused, muddled garbage and has been for, what, 9 months? And the whole of 2012/13?

 

Jpf is just having a laugh mate. It's a bit of welcome gallows humour.

 

Were as good as down lads I know it's early days but these boys just don't have the stomach for it and genuinely don't have the quality to defend or attack and that my friends is a recipe for disaster. This is a joke now what the **** does it take to get sacked this is long overdue and just might give us a chance to stay up if done now

 

We need 2 up front. Simple
