Are we confident we will go up still?

    Think there is some serious **** stirring going on in the press at the moment

    Koeman has already come out and said he wasn't prepared to sell McCarthy given the other players who left Everton, so what do you do if your target isn't available?

    Same with Townsend, if Palace changed their minds (or moved the goalposts in terms of the deal) what do we do, pay whatever they want???

    we are where we are now, for good or ill - players, fans and management need to simply focus on the job in hand and stop bitching over something no one can do anything about right now.

    yes, I do think we could be doing better, yes I do think some players aren't performing and the team needs a shake up, but I don't think it's a bad as people are making out.

    Feels like some people think we should have the title sewn up by now - that's not how this league works - there were always going to be bumps along the road.

    Rafa has apparently said that he has absolutely no intention of walking out and is focused on getting us back up to the PL and taking us on from there. Time to move on. A non-story now.

    Aston Villa (the alleged biggest club in the Championship) - 14th position with total net spend of around +£30m - currently 13 points off a playoff place

    Newcastle - 1st, with a total net spend of around -£30m

    Who would you prefer to be - honestly???

    Everything fallen to pieces at Villa in 2017, now nearer relegation zone than the playoffs.

    Our next opponents at home. With Steve Bruce and Henry Lansbury as a couple of Brucie bonuses. A match not to be missed.

    We should, but only because everyone else (bar Brighton) are poor

    And we wonder why people think N'cle fans are deluded - and then someone comes out with arrogant, bullshit statements like that....

    Some of you are a bunch of pussies. Seriously. We're still coming together as a team, we have a lot of young guns in here who are developing, and we are top now because we have quality to win us game when we're not playing well.

    That's why we'll likely win the league. Quality players.

    The top 4 in the premier league will have plenty of ****e games but win due to one or two players all the time.

    Arsenal get figured out quite often yet have players to score great goals to nick them 1 or 2-0 wins all the time.
