Match Day Thread Swansea City v Newcastle United - Build Up / Matchday Thread

After picking up a point against the Saints I think we might scrape another score draw now (I was predicting bottom of table 0 points after 4 games so...) won't keep a clean sheet though

 

I think the Saints are better than Swansea, I also think another week of training for Chancel and Mitro will help, especially if Mbemba and Colo play centre back.

I reckon Scteeve has a plan and i predict a 1-0 away victory for the toon!

 

Finally on prozac no ****!!!!

Toon win 3 nowt

 

We always have our blow up sheep

 

Talk bollocks? You're fans were a disgrace last season - travelling the length of the country to slag off the manager and owner. The whole thing left a nasty taste in the mouth and had no part in a sporting arena. How do you expect the players to perform in that atmosphere?

Let's hope there's proper support on Saturday.

 

Mate Pardew was a bottomfeeder. Those fans travelled far and wide and can say whatever the **** they like.

Don't judge other teams supporters. I don't do it with Swansea, you shouldn't do it with ours. I wouldn't have any idea about Swansea football club and if their supporters wanted to protest in anyway I wouldn't give a ****. I don't see why it bothered you so much.

 

It bothered me so much because it was BAD. I'm used to hearing fans vent their anger, but what happened last season was wrong - similair to what happened to Steve Kean at Blackburn. It went way beyond football/sport.

The game itself was a side issue to what was going on in the stands.

 

You just walked down a road you should not have..... Let me advise you that when you feel a presence or a chill goes down your spine its probably because the octopus witch is coming for you.

 

Pardew calling pellagrini and ****ing old **** wasn't worse? Does that belong in a sporting arena? How about headbutting players? as for the owner do you encourage third world explotation, monthly rolling contracts and payday loan companies?
You don't understand you are nothing do you understand me? Absolutely nothing!!!!!!!

 

This guy is a Douche! what a pansy by being affected by 2000 odd fans chanting in the away end about something he has no idea about! If he wants to go watch a nice game of sport, try cricket or ballet

 

Ha ha aye or poetry

 

Christ man it wasn't like Pardew was being burnt in effigy in the ****ing stands!

If someone had ran on and attacked Pardew then yes, that would have gone beyond the pale but what happened down there was nothing of the sort. Pardew is a grown man and got over it. I'm sure people eventually got over things Pardew has done to them in the past. Ask a certain player from his West Ham days.

 

I say we find this PGF white character and wave out not606 banner at him. I suspect he would wimper.

 

same team as last week bar Cisse and Obertan start Aarons who will give us some flair and run at their full backs and Mitrovic who will be physical against Williams and probably put him on the deck a few times early on let him know whos boss

 

I disagree you dont drop players that got a goal and an assist and a team that looked like they were in control. If it aint broke don't fix it.

That aside if a player performs and gets dropped what message does it send, what effect on team morale would it have? Its basic man management and i find your incompetence along with many others to be astonishing.

 

Ok you have a point i imagine the team wont change but i would like to see those 2 get more time even if it is off the bench. ideally cisse and mitrovic play together but we have too much quality in midfield to leave players out there

 

At some point its certain that obertan will drop his performance and it most likely wont be long

 

agreed although he did have a good run of games last season before his injury against liverpool we will see though

 

I suspect if he plays well Saturday he will be in there for a couple more at least. As for cisse its a no brainer that he should start ahead of mitrovic but if mitrovic comes on when the rest of the team are knackered its unfair so its a tricky one. Id personally play mitrovic away at old trafford and home to arsenal because even if you draw its a bonus.


I guess im saying in those fixtures gambling is a better option than on sat, however if cisse scores on sat you just cant drop him im afraid. Well in my opinion at least.

 

I can understand Cisse starting but Obertan wasn't THAT good against Southampton. He put a great cross in from a counter attack down the right, but his general play was no better than what Aarons would have been like on the left wing - probably worse. I don't think Obertan is capable of crossing like that from the left. If Obertan plays I hope it's on the right wing with Sissoko moving to the middle and Colback replacing Haidara at LB. Ayew will tear Haidara apart I fear and we must stop these crosses coming in because Gomis will be a handful in the air.
