Just had a neb on the Chronicle journos tweets, some negativity towards Rafa now.
His signings, his team selections, £50m spent (can argue they made money on transfers out, but he still spent on and signed those players).

Nowt like a bit of unrest in the camp.

I haven't watched you this season so i dont know, but is he a big player for you lot then? I'm shocked at how many goals Gayle has scored, but he has found his level i suppose. Ritchie always seemed a canny player, but the wheels do seem to have come off the spanish rollercoaster at the minute.Can't see you not finishing top 2, but it get's a bit more squeaky bum time when the points lead dwindles :lol:

He is a massive player for us, he gets so much time on the ball so can use the ability he has in that department to good effect. For all of our signings we don't have a like-for-like replacement for him in the squad. We've been linked with Cleverley on loan for the rest of the season and I would take that to dump Colback further behind the pecking order.

Ritchie started the season like a house on fire but he's playing too deep at the minute. We've conceded the first goal seven times and lost all seven games so far this season, that's what we need to address immediately.

Like I said previously, I'm not overly concerned as you'd expect when Shelvey returns that the results improve but there's a blueprint to beating us evolving and it's something we need to adapt to.

Just said on another thread that there's always a team hits decent form in the second half of the season, I fancy it to be Leeds. If the mags drop a few more points and someone else gains ground, I can see the waiter mopping the sweat from his brow.

I remember Forest doing that quite a few years back. Came from nowhere.

We're struggling and still second by some distance. Shite? no, inconsistant yes. Still, you're shower have managed to concede 9 goals in three games and you're just about to lose three or four to the ACN. And you're skint. I am thinking more players will leave your club than join this january.

Shite, mate. I love how you try to pretend otherwise.
Think what you like. Liverpool would have ran up double figures against your second tier plodders. Look what an injury ravaged ten man Hull did to your best side. :lol:

We relegated you. #SEETHING
 
Still think they will win the league. Spent 40 or 50 million but they actually didn't as they sold shite players to the same value. Sissokeeer for 30m man.

They apparently battered Blackburn today, poor finishing and good GK led to 1 shot agaisnt and a defeat. Harsh but fuck them. Hope they fail.

But as I said, still expect them to win the league.

I'm dressing nothing up.

You're assuming I'm comparing Newcastle to Sunderland which I'm not.

The thread is specifically about Newcastle and their current form in the 2nd division.

That doesn't get any better if you compare it to Sunderland.

We all compare us and them.

We all know how things are likely to end after this season.
Our club are letting us down big time.

All the above is pissing me off.

They love having millions of shots, but hardly any on target. Apparently that makes them a good team. :lol:
