Official Matchday Thread - Newcastle vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

Pardew needs to get this sorted out. He's failed to motivate the team numerous times this season, and it's unacceptable.

 

One of the worst performances I've ever seen at home. Disgraceful. Cabaye was terrible, Ben Arfa was terrible, Ba was non-existent, Raylor did **** all, Simpson and Williamson shouldn't even be playing in this league. Disgusting

 

ahhh... this is the newcastle i remember.

 

Where is the cat... feel like I need to kick something...

 

I don't care what anybody says, Mike Williamson is abysmal excuse for a centre half, 6 foot 4 and he can't head a ball clear properly, disgrace

 

Ben Arfa was ok but the fact is the crowd is strting to expect and therior frustration trancends on to the players. I wasn't there today but the atmosphere and support was pathetic.

 

Midfield battle was lost from the off today. Play like that against Sunderland and we'll get our arse torn out.

 

Every time Ben Arfa had the ball, he gave it away

 

Yeah, he ****ed up. So did Ben Arfa by repeatedly running the ball out of play. So did the rest of the team by playing like a bunch of ****ing jokes.

 

The lads thought they had the game won but Pardew should have changed things earlier. We havn't lost and Sunderland got hammered 4-0 so alls good ad well in the big picture

 

That's a ****ty attitude. The 3 points should have been ours, and would have kept us in a much stronger position to challenge for Europe (be it Champions League or Europa League).
This is 2 points lost rather than 1 point gained. You're utterly pathetic if you think the fact that we didn't lose makes it "good".

 

****ED OFFF! Whole team seemed to think it was won at half time.ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

 

I really fear for next weekend now

 

This was a horrible, horrible performance from the lads.
Mackems next week, at least they lost 4-0.
To be honest, a draw against Wolves is a good point. Seeming how poor we were
We were coming back from a 5-0 raping, and a team with a new manager who put in a very inspired second half performance. We held on well, Ben Arfa was very poor when he came on, Tiote was tired from ACoN, Cabaye wasn't in the game today. But he has just come back from a 3 match ban.
Ba was poor aswell today, seemed very off the pace.
Hopefully these players will all be a lot better next weekend for the Tyne and Wear derby.

 

The frontmen were rarely in the game because they barely got a touch. The central midfield was absolute dire and gave them nothing. And when Guthrie came on it arguably got even worse.

A real gutless display.

 

We are still in with a shout and if our fans moan and get back to booing n stuff it won't help at all.

 

Neither will putting your head in the sand and pretending it's all okay. Yeah, we're not going to get relegated, but we have a decent chance of qualifying for European competition of some sort, and we're throwing it away with performances like that.

Pardew smiling and saying he's 'not overly disappointed' in the interview to BBC Sport. The grin might work on Ricky Lambert's wife but not the fans. For the first time I actually wanted to smash his face in.

Garth saying we're still in the race for the top four - bless him.

 

no he didn't and if you want to blame someone Cabaye had a shocker and Simpson is pap
