The thing is we are in relegation trouble Vaughan, last year I thought he was a good manager when Ba, Santon and Cabaye were the only signings we saw and Cisse scored 13 flukes. This year we have seen others like Marveaux and he signed Amamouthful we know the truth about his general signing.

I am certain you will not be in any sort of relegation trouble this season. Nor will we for the matter, despite what some think

Ba, Santon and Cabaye are all class though, so is Cisse! 13 flukes?!

What about Anita? Is he not any good?

Although said with 100% sarcasm the irony is that Carr actually presents the players to Pardew...Pardew will only scout a player once they've been recommended by Carr so in essence they're not really Pardew's signings.

Not true, the manager decides who comes and goes. As you say, the scouts simply present them like most clubs. Nobody would say Hernandez was a scouts signing, he's Ferguson. Important to have good scouts though.
 
Steady. 3 games 3 losses all coinciding funnily enough with our captain, best player and most composed player out due to suspension. He's back on Wednesday and I fully expect at least a draw at a tough place to go.

His tongue is in his cheek mate, the others unfortunately are serious. I believe he is mocking them

Pardew has the final say of course, but he doesn't find the players. As you say though I imagine it's like that at pretty much every club other than Sunderland because O'neill only buys British.
 
Still think you will finish around 7th, soon as you get your plays back you will be fine.
 
Always a risk that injuries will cripple your squad when the owner wants the squad trimmed as small as possible to save on wages. Last season it looked like you were very well run because you got results & avoided injuries (bar Taylor). This season, with Europe, it looks as if you have planned ahead poorly & not factored in the impact of playing more midweek games with injuries and fatigue.

Not a disaster though andd you'll be top 10 in the end.
 
The thing that concerns me about the Southampton game, is the lack of fight, lack of chances created and the fact that we got battered by a newly-promoted team.

Against West Ham & Swansea, we created many chances and could have easily scored and improved those results... we were well beaten by Saints and that's a major concern.

To say we're heading for another relegation is a little premature I think... we're in some terrible form that's for sure, relegation? I'm not convinced just yet. <ok>

It was pathetic. But then we were at times last season. The 2nd half against Fulham and Spurs away were heartless. The concern is its confidence but a few goals and lucky breaks can soon change that.
 
Ohh dont worry as tash says its just a blip like we had last year it's only 9 defeats in 11
Yes we have injuries but if you don't strength in the summer what do we expect
Blackpool here we come
A ****ing joke Again
 
I'll wait until the end of January before getting out the back cap and chose NOT to knee jerk right now.
 
Our defence is scary bad. Noone can paper over this saying we are scoring goals, we are scoring goals but compromising our solidity to do it. Too many players that are not up to standard and I think we need to take a long hard look at our captain and ask whether his heart is still in it
 
I actually thought we played well and where the better team up until 70 minutes.

I am deflated.

I am destroyed.

I am going to go and get drunk.

I am also going to state one thing which I cannot believe. WE PLAYED BETTER IN THE LAST TWO GAMES THAN WE HAVE ALL SEASON.... And yet we lost both games and shipped 11 goals.

That can only happen to us.

Meh...... **** it its only football!
