    I watched the first 60 mins then turned it off. Can't be arsed. If we were on the brink of relegation then I'd still watch for the excitement and emotion.

    There's just none there. The players should just go on their holidays now because there's nothing to play for, or at least they think that.

    This summer will be massive.

    Minimum requirements -

    Another CB, LB, creative midfield player and a striker.

    Recommended -

    Another CB, LB, creative center mind, creative wid mid, two strikers (One talisman and one support striker)

    They can all **** off after that performance. Should be fined heavily and ordered to compensate those that travelled down there.

    Pardew can join them. Clueless prick.

    Worst I've felt since joe kinnear was appointed boss. Haven't hated anyone as much as Pardew since shepherd was at the top.

    Still those that defend that clown. Actually someone on a forum has said we bossed their midfield in the first half. I'm speechless.

    As soon as we got those couple of wins to push us over the line, we could have buggered off and stopped playing. You'd think NOW is the time to experiment, really have the players enjoy playing the game with no pressure, attack and create chances, but no.....

    Let's dully attempt to be solid for every single 90 minutes, no matter who the opposition, until the end of the season... We might pick up a couple of draws that give us an extra league placing and extra money for Mike's transgender strippers.

    Still, is anyone really surprised though? No bugger in the management is really bothered about anything other than simply surviving in the PL. This has to get through to the players.

    Dreadfully pissed off watching that "performance". One of the most lifeless, unimaginative, passionless I've seen from a Newcastle side in years. Absolutely atrocious.

    I watched the match and we could have been 4 down after 15 minutes and rarely had a kick of the ball.. To be blunt, we were utter sh.t and a disgrace to the colours.

    At the end of the day Ashley is only interested in money. You could offer him 17th position for the nxt 5 yrs with us getting knocked out of both cups at the first hurdle and he would snap your hands off. He is like a cancer slowly killing the hopes, dreams and ambitions of all NUFC supporters. No point talking about Pardew as he`s Ashleys man.

    Lets do something about it rather then turn up like lemmings
    Something needs to change, today I really did not give a FCUK when did a newcastle club decide that just because we are safe we should not bother.
    Pardew on the other hand can go and FCUK of the useless useless ****.

    The only saving grace is relagationland
    Demise this season

    It all depends what you or anyone feels the problem is. I don't think anyone is under any illusion that there IS a problem, it's just divided as to whether it's Ashley AND Pardew, or some percentage based share of accountability between the two. I'm probably around 20% Ashley, 80% Pardew - I think a change in manager and a bit of investment could allow us to forgive/forget Ashley's existence. Many on this board are probably 50/50, some are 80/20 Ashley. I just think the fans should direct their ire towards something that can change, rather than waste any time on issues out of their control. We could all force Ashley's hand on Pardew, or try. We can do fck all about the owner himself.

    I'm 100% Ashley. He provides the staff, playing staff, facilities, everything really. As owner he is solely accountable for our efforts.

    They're both to blame. Ashley for obvious reasons. Pardew - He seems to have drained motivation out of everyone. His tactics belong in the 1980's and his excuses are becoming laughable.

    It's embarrassing that we had a 0-10 aggregate over 3 games in February and 0-7 aggregate this week in 2 games. That is clear to see that it's time for change, read somewhere after Everton that it was his 17th 3 goal defeat as manager of Newcastle that is quite frankly disgraceful and down to his tactics. No excuse for this man to be manager against Man Utd next Saturday.

    The malaise in the club starts at the top with Ashley as far as I'm concerned.
    I've given him the benefit of the doubt at times, but, all I see now is stagnation unless he changes course.
    Pardew is fast becoming un-defendable, but, as it stands he seems to have the support of Ashley no matter what.

    If Pardew deserves to be sacked, Ashley should just get on with it, if he doesn't you can only blame him for allowing the current situation to fester.

    I would quite happily see Pardew go tomorrow, if there was any indication from Ashley that he had a plan for the future in hand and was serious in appointing a coach/manager that could take the club forward. But, you just don't see that forward planning coming. The buck stops with him, its in his hands to make the changes.

    If Pardew does go, its no good saying, I would like this one or the other next, we will get whoever Ashley gives us, not who some would like.

    Now I'm p***** off writing A***** that many times, my heed hurts.
