cant see wot all the fuss is with the newcastle fans are they that surprised that there beloved keegan keegan keegan has walked out on them yet again when its not going his way keegan record as a manager won nothing everwhere and walked out of every club he managed and then down to the running of the club they wanted the board out and that's wot they are getting just as soon as they can find someone daft who will pump milllions into the club just for the fans to damand a 3rd rate manger be incharge of the team or they will want the new board out

Good news for England fans, Keegan is avalible for the England managers job if things dont work out if Capello

[Colchester Kev]

Being a Spurs fan is a proper trial sometimes, but I cannot imagine what it is like to be a geordie at the moment, football is so important to those people, ffs they deserve so much better than they are getting.

I seriously hope they get through this shit patch, not for the club, they can rot as far as i am concerned, but for the fans... its turning into a car crash and its not pretty or even funny anymore, its just SAD.

0-2 at home to Blackburn

[Colchester Kev]

1-2 now, come on Newcastle, Im supporting you today.

[ShatnerPants]

Im supporting you today.

Agree with what you say about the fans etc.

But i'm not sure I can go this far, even against Blackburn. 

( oh go on, just this once mind  )

It shows how bad it has been that I can actually take positives from the second half. A bit more about us than of late but still lacking quality with mass proportions. If u take 4 of the best 5 players out of any team in the PL then u will see a big effect, with our tiny squad it just compounds the problem.

Plus Barton, Guthrie.

Needed back before anymore damage to confidence is done.

I really think Newcastle have had this coming for a long time, maybe not the shambolic affairs of the last few months who nobody could have predicted but it wouldnt suprise me if they went down. The board were a joke, the squad are terrible, Keegan is a quitter and the fans (while no doubt the most loyal and dedicated fans in the world) have delusions of grandeur. As someone who also supports a joke team (come on you Owls) I really hope they go down and everyone associated with the club gets a big reality check - they simply are not the big team they all claim they are.

All those people who are singing Keegans praises need to remember that his quitting is what caused this mess in the first place. Obviously all the ingredients were there for some shambles in the pipeline anyway, but they wouldnt be in the bottom three now if he had stuck around.

I heard a bunch of Geordies on the radio today saying 'Shearer is tha man to get us into Europe' - I think that sums up the delusion going on at that club, talking about an unproven, unappointed manager getting them to a position they have no hope of coming close to this season when they have a relegation battle on their hands.

Rant over, Ive been biting my lip on that one for ages.

[Rooky9]

Should have kept biting your lip, it would have prevented all that shite spewing out of your mouth.

[Colchester Kev]

Being delusional when talking about your team is not a crime, we are all guilty of that ... leave the fans out of it imo.

Being delusional as an owner is a crime, and that is where the problems lay at St James' park.

It's not so much losing your better players that's the problem so much.

it's more the fact that those guys ARE your best players tbh.

I don't think I'm too delusional .

We've got a young squad.

They will play good , proper Arsenal football.

They will be in the top 2 for a reasonable while.

They will not be in the top 2 when it matters.

We will say at the end of the season ''It doesn't matter too much about the trophies all the while we have such a small , young squd.  If only the board would give arsene enough just to buy those two more experienced players we need to go all the way.''

Then two days before the end of the window one of the board will suddenly find £30 mil which arsene apparently doesn't want to spend.

I love him to bits - but I wish he'd buy a ready made centre back and central midfielder, just to give the youngsters a bit of a chance.  Oops too late for this year.

Still, we are the best team in the country, which is just about enough compensation, I suppose.
