In you opinion, yeah? Or you the defacto position that speaks on others behalf? I’ve never liked Newcastle, for many reasons.
Nor Jones, or Selles. It's almost like SR have gone out of their way to recruit absolute rookie managers who don't have a ****ing clue. Not one manager with PL experience. Not one. If they deliberately set out to relegate us I don't think they could have made better picks. 4 managers we've had in the PL under SR and they've never considered we might need one who's done it before? Absolute grade A ****ing clowns.
Agree I think 5 at the back is part of the problem, it lends nothing to us and we would benefit from a 4 with an extra number in midfield.
Well no, you stated it was a stonewall pen. Not really a discussion that is it? And you try being a fan of us right now. It sucks and having a Newcastle fan coming over and acting all high and mighty doesn't really help. Could try showing a bit of tact.
It's definitely a problem with our squad. I don't mind the concept of three CBs. But as I keep on saying, it only works with two quality WBs. You can't just push a FB slightly forward, and expect them to excel as a WB. Sure, some FBs are good enough to play WB, but not many. Christ, most of our FBs aren't even good enough to play FB, let alone WB! Manning plays LWB like Smallbone plays DM. Just passes sideways or backwards.
He just stated its a stonewall pen, so what? It was pretty clear let's face it. And then people start being f*cking offensive towards him.
Well he's earned himself a ban from this thread. If Chilco hadn't of done it I would. He was clearly being deliberately provocative.
Almost as embarrassing as you liking posts around some of this stuff. I didn’t think the penalty should have been overturned. They literally went against why VAR was brought in for. What, we now meant to bow down and take it if we don’t agree with something. You may think I’m acting embarrassing, I’m thinking you are coming over somewhat pious. That guy was acting a bit of a dick with a couple of his responses, no one really fell out over it, did they? Why you getting your knickers all twisted? Anyhow, I’m off for a beer, have a good one
I always wonder if 3 atb is a SR decision and mandate; if I remember correctly, didn't Ralph randomly start using it not long after they came in and it's been with us pretty much ever since?
Big complaint, VAR ruins the live experience They were about to kick off and we’d finished celebrating For pen, they were about to take a corner and now there’s a review which takes minutes and then doesn’t make a decision but just gets the ref to the screen and we’re still waiting, knowing that going to the screen means it’s going to be a pen Biggest chants of the day “**** VAR” and “It’s not football anymore “
