    .... still have any meaning in the English language?

    Every knobsack, who has to handle a difficult question or just says something incredibly stupid will inevitably trot out that phrase.

    Pardew, surprise surprise, is the latest after Ashley said he was a dead man walking.

    In future if anyone disagrees with, or is offended by, anything I say just apply 'Smug was taken out of context' and there's no harm done <ok>

    "Ashley was understood to have told a journalist from the Independent that he'd fire Pardew if he lost at Stoke on Monday night."

    "Pardew said today: &#8220;Yeah, but sometimes things are taken out of context."

    Well personally, without wishing to be too judgmental.
    I'd rather lick a camel's scrotum than give Parsnip the kiss of life.

    I hope he see's out his very short contract with Newcastle.
    That said, fat Mike is no ****ing idiot.
    I'd buy him a pint anytime.

    Just wait until he takes over Rangers & uses the mags as a feeder club.
    He's just waiting until they get back in the SPL & then wait & see.

    Kudos to Ellis Short for his real conversation with Pardew.

    ES "**** off!"

    I wonder if Pardew took it in the right context? <rofl>

    Number 84. 16 to go. Pardew will have his own chapter at this rate.

    What does Pardew think it mean IN context?

    It's incredible that people can say something on screen then deny it the next day by using that phrase.

    It implies malicious intent by the media which, of course, gets the gullible supporters onside.

    I guess it's only 12 or so hours from now where we'll find out what it all meant, Stoke will hump them tonight.

    I can hardly see Mike Ashley laughing and joking with him after another 3-0 beat down.

    If they lose tonight and he gets the sack, will he say "You know when I you'd taken it out of context - well you took that out of context"
