Match Day Thread The Official Match Day Thread - Newcastle v West Brom

Yes its annoying that we threw away the lead but hopefully Pardew will look to strengthen the defence next season to stop this kind of thing happening (new right back please)

 

I hate ****ing comebacks this week.
****ed up Heineken Cup.
****ed up top half in Premier League.

 

To be honest, Tchoyi is a good player. He scored as well back in there ground when we lost 3-1 & has been the star man in both of those games. Tchoyi has our number unfortunately. 4/5 goals I think is his record against us now, loves playing us for some reason.

 

Ye still very pleased with the season obviously. Great return to the prem, just such a **** way to end it, what a throw away.

 

Really ****ing disappointed with that. To lose a 3 goal lead when we could have been as high as 9th.

We need higher positions to attract better players. Now if any of them luck at our last match they'll see us throwing it away after being 3 goals up.

I also hope that Pards ****ing bollocks them. I can't imagine the reception for the lap of honour being too grand now though.

 

Gutted ... threw away a 9th place finish and let the Mackems and Villa finish above us. Would have snatched your hand off for a 12th place finish at the start of the season but that last 45 minutes has taken the gloss of it all for me at the moment. Hopefully tomorrow will be able to laugh about it ...!

 

This is my fault. Tchoyi always scores against me on FM11, his powers have now transferred to real life. Sorry.

 

We will need a new LB and RB now, because Enrique will leave and Simpson is utter crap.

 

He was MOTM in the previous game aswell(lost 3-1 remember.. Chris' last game). This Tchoyi fella steps up his game whenver we face him.. Why? anyone's guess..

 

The players should pay out the 500k the backroom staff were going to get if we had won because the players really ****ed it up.

 

This!



I missed the second half, what actually happened? Was there any specific player who was **** or what?

 

This^
Birmingham relegated means that the Bin Dippers are in for the Europa Cup.

 

Danny Simpson was useless and was responsible for their 1st and 3rd goal, 2nd goal was offside, Smith was also useless when he came on.

 

As Ive been saying ALL season while everyone licks his ring piece, Simpson is not good enough, its just becoming so annoying to me now, hes CONSTANTLY out of position, he CONSTANTLY backs off defenders until after its too late, and he cannot mark anyone to save his life, he knows theres no-one better and needs competition by someone of a slightly better level to help him improve, (if thats possible)

The substitutions were ****ing ridiculous, takes off Guthrie who ran the show in CM? Takes off Lovenkrands who was playing better than I've seen him play all season? Takes off Ferguson who was looking bright aswell?

Brings on Best, who clearly wasnt fit enough to start the game, so why bother bringing him on now? Fair enough if it was a swap for another striker and not Guthrie.

Brings on Alan Smith who was simply woeful as usual and killed our passing game because hes unable to make a simple 3 yard pass without ****ing it up (If hes here next season I'll be ****ing livid)

Brings on Lua Lua, which is fair enough but Ferguson was doing fine!

Shocking defending from the lads aswell, looks like complacency set in at 3-0, and we didnt look like we could be arsed, just thrown away a top half finish, could have helped attract slightly better calibre of players next season but instead we finish in a mediocre bottom half place below the mackems. Nice one.

 

Danny Simpson had a poor second-half in general. Really poor, but to be fair to the lad he's been mainly consistent throught the season & argubably one of the most underrated players in our side, he's solid but unspectacular, hopefully next season he'll improve with experience & games.

 

Blackpool might have snuck into Europe!

And why does Brum getting relegated mean Liverpool get into Europa?

Yeah this ^. Simpson was a total shambles today, made tons of mistakes and looked clueless with his passing. But he has had a good season and has been the solid RB we needed especially when it looked as if Perch was going to have the place permanently.

 

Agree With absolutely everything you said GBB, Simpson is at fault for a hell of a lot of our conceded, it's not good enough at this level to allow players a yard that many times! And you're spot on with the subs as well, smith on meant we lost the posession, Kazenga on meant we lost the threat of Ferguson, all be it he did attack the full back, and Best was static..not fit

 

What exactly does Simpson have to do to make you lot realise hes not good/average player, hes been ****ing up all season, and going forward he has a first touch like a rapist.

Not really sure where the myth about him being fast came from aswell, because he can never keep up with his attacker.
