Just watched the pre Newcastle Press Conference.......more like Depress Conference. Better to get Bednarek back that bring anyone else in......

I wasn't against it (I actually went into the studio at SMS and did an interview with Mark Dennis once), but I think the problem is/was. like now, that off field activities were seen to be taking preference over improving the team.

Notice we have Dehydration Centres now though.....

Still no radio station or insurance company......?

If this is really what he said, I give up!

OK....I couldn't help myself. His actual words were "people will see that we have some really exciting announcements to make over the next few weeks both on the commercial side and on the football side in terms of people we are bringing in that we really, really believe that can take this club forward". Interpret that what how you will. Depends on whether your glass is half full or half empty I guess

I think that his words were actually something like "a couple of exciting weeks with announcements on both the footballing side and off field side of things".....I am probably paraphrasing but can't be bothered to find the recording to list to again. I am sure that someone on here will though....

At least he had some "balls", conning his way into a top tier team!🤣

Ali Dia?

They could even afford to sell one to West Ham....

Thanks.

Has there been a presser for this game? Usually Thursday afternoon?

Matt Oakley....

To the rescue!!!

I DO like the sound of Mystery Striker. Any stats??

Wired or weird......or both??🙂

Armstrongs goal at Palace was as much about him chasing down the keeper from his own half as the keepers mistake.....the keeper made the mistake because of Armstrongs chasing down.....

Let me start by saying that I was as much against NJ's appointment as anyone else, but I've seen recently....... v Palace: - "We won because they made errors and gifted us the goals"......v Man City:- "Yeah but it was a City 2nd string"......v Everton:- "yeah but without JWP we would have lost". We have just won three on the trot, two away from home and all against Prem sides....Oh and have progressed in two Cups and beaten a relegation rival on their own patch. At what point do the team and the manager start getting some real credit for what has happened?

Obviously no substantial rumours in the "Sunday papers" today......

Really??? Gets the blame when it goes wrong but gets no credit when it goes right....three times in a week.....🙄

Is there a tremendous amount of humble pie to be eaten??

NJ did say that he would be up until 3.00am after the City game studying Everton games....so who knows?

Completely and utterly out of the blue. A day I will remember until the day I die!

Is there a presser today??
