I hope you're right, I really do, but I can see Hull winning on Sunday. They've shown they can muster up spirit now and again. Not as often as they should but far more often than we do - which is never. I can easily see us losing. We're the worst team in the league since New Year by a mile and Ashley's gambles of selling off our defence and not replacing them and appointing a clown as manager will backfire big time. I think we're down and it's nothing more or less than we absolutely deserve sadly.
It's a sad day for football when a man can single handedly, and deliberately, destroy the soul of his own club.
As much as I enjoy being above Newcastle, and seeing them squirm, this isn't a fair playing field. Ashley is playing with people's lives and laughing as they protest, march & boycott ...
..... it's a disgrace when people helplessly have to stand by and watch a 'foreigner' play silly buggers with their club and their lives.
I've no more idea than anyone else what will happen on Sunday but I just can't see Hull and Newcastle both winning. Hull have lost 3 in a row and look shot to pieces, Newcastle look even worse. Both Bruce & Carver have a totally unjustifiable opinion of their own powers of management, tactics & psychology.
When Carver said he'd order the Newcastle players to avoid the media, not log on to the internet or switch the TV on for the whole week I actually laughed out loud. It's obvious to everyone that the players will just think he's a joke and ignore him which further undermines his 'authority'.
He started off his 'reign' by claiming the spirit of Sir Bobby Robson would be watching over him ...... if that's true then Bob must be rolling his eyes.
Carver, Ashley & the whole rotten club deserve to be relegated and rot in hell, I hate to say it but the majority of supporters don't.
Let's be honest, Newcastle have by far the easiest fixture, lose that and you can't say they deserved to stay up.
