    Let’s hope Sharpey has a word in Yootha’s ear sharpish about the tactics.

    This nonsense can’t be allowed to go on.

    No strikers, no goals, no points….

    Wednesday looks like being a long, cold night. Bet Newcastle won’t play with no strikers.

    I have a horrible fealing this season is going to turn out just like 2 years ago…sacked the manager and things got far worse under the replacement.

    As I type, Rotherham are still playing, but looking like a win…at this rate we’ll be bottom on Boxing Day :ohmy:

    Edit – Rotherham now won

    Told you we’d get Notts F….

    At least we’re at home :woohoo:

    in reply to: FA CUP #152853
    I want either Barrow or Carlisle away.

    My first ever game was Barrow v Tranmere Rovers at Holker Street in about 1968. I remember a quagmire of a pitch, moving ends at half time and no stroker phones to keep up with other results ….. but small transistor radios.

    And Mary Hopkins singing “Those were the Days” ……….

    Carlisle would quite like to be in the 3rd round draw no doubt… ;)

    in reply to: FA CUP #152849
    Number 43 in the draw 7pm BBC 2 tonight who would you like barrow away would be nice

    Strangely enough that’s what I was thinking, having walked past their ground a few weeks ago. Quite fancy a trip to Holker Street :lol:

    I think Barrow might be hoping for a Premier League team :unsure:

    I’m in 2 minds as ever at this stage who we want to draw. Do we want lower or non league opposition for a couple of rounds; see a few of the big boys knock each other out and a couple of upsets as well…another Championship team in R5 and we can almost see the Arch again…. :kiss:

    Or get ManUre/Chelsea etc at home and get a tonking but have a big day out?

    We have a habit of getting a team from our own division away, so probably Derby or Notts F away….

    in reply to: Todays game…. #152831

    Unlucky to come away with nothing, but we were lucky to win on Monday (penalties etc) so it evens out.

    Far better with Grigg on instead of Yanic trying to play as a striker.

    Hopefully the penny’s dropped with Yootha. :unsure:

    in reply to: Grigg #152815

    Players not fit at this stage of the season….I blame Coyle :ohmy:

    in reply to: Use Rosler #152811
    Says what??? In his first year he was just a little financial backing off taking us to the Premier League. A few Bob for a decent striker and we would have been up at first attempt.
    Second year God knows what happened!!!

    A decent manager to start the season would have sorted us. Instead we got Coyle :evil:

    It was announced on here that we were about to announce McLaren as manager…what happened to stop it at the last moment? Someone ask him tomorrow lol

    in reply to: Grigg #152810
    One excuse after another, Yootha on radio earlier saying “Grigg isnt fit enough yet”, so dont expect to see our top scorer tomorrow against Derby.

    Yanic up front on his own again then.

    What about Le Fondre or even Davies with Yanic in behind?

    in reply to: Newcastle United #152793

    Tickets for Newcastle fans have now gone on general sale. Allocation is 4800. Does anyone know why they don’t get the full 5400ish allocation?

    At a guess presume they’re keeping the section nearest ES8 clear :woohoo:[/quote]

    Why? Are they going in the South Stand! :)[/quote]

    Haha, yes, it’s numbered the other way round in the East Stand…it’s my age :oops:

    Come on lads don’t be so negative!!

    9 :woohoo:

    Otherwise I’m calling Yootha a taxi.

    No seriously, 4 would be decent…win, draw, lose (probably in that order). Villa Park was our lucky ground in the Prem, only lost once in 8 visits (just happened to be the game I went to!).

    in reply to: Tonight.. #152711

    For me we got lucky tonight, penalty not given etc.

    We’ve played better and lost. Saying that though Huddersfield looked like us so far this season, lots of possession and nil points at the end. Hoping this is the stroke of luck we need to kick on now.

    We’d do a damn sight better with a striker (or preferably 2 :blink: )

    3 points is 3 points…I’m not convinced though overall.

    Whatever Yootha says or does, there’s one thing he must change above all else…into a suit. A manager should look like one, not a retired player trying to relive his youth. BH, we gave Coyle enough stick for standing there in his shorts :woohoo:

    in reply to: The Great Unveiling…. #152641

    With all the negative threads on this boaed recently everyone take a minute to reflect upon where we would be today if it wasnt for this great man. Take a bow Mr Whelan, you deserve this. Sorry I couldnt make it today.

    Correct[/quote]

    Totally agree. About 5 years ago someone on here pointed out when someone was moaning about Sir DW that without him we would be playing FC United not Man Utd.

    Times have changed obviously. Nowadays the comparison would be playing Aston Villa or Euxton Villa :S

    Anyway, let’s hope Dave had enough puff left after all the speeches to blow his candles out!!

    in reply to: The Great Unveiling…. #152633
    I must have been stood right behind you. I have also changed it to the full version.

    3 minutes 14 to 3 minutes 20 are a very interesting point in it.

    I was too busy looking forward to notice you sorry! :oops:

    Yes I saw this version on Youtube after I uploaded mine…so long as no one thinks I’m trying to pass of this version as my own :lol:
