Lol , no he wouldn't. Iam not going to bite as Im sure I could roll out many names that you have been bitter about at the club in the past as they have somehow upset you. Nathan Jones red and white army. Youll be singing that before the end of the season😀😀
-
yes you did
-
All fair points but Im not ready to bin him. The Forest game did him untold damage that reinforced the naysayers opinion. I was fortunate that I didnt see that game and so cant comment apart from I have seen nobody give any positives of that game. If we get rid of him, the team will then have to absorb another set of ideas (something they dont seem to be able to do easily now) At present it looks as though the players are still with him. New players give us another hope and I will get great satisfaction if he does turn things, especially as we are all winners
-
Fair point LOS, but perhaps Im just a bit tetchy today as Im pretty jaded after a bad nights sleep, I wonder why lol
-
Ive never been the one to strop off here vowing to never come back, unlike some I could mention. If I aimed that at you , you would be sending messages t admin asking for me to be infracted or whatever its called lol

Not intending to do that, but god he was crucified before he started. Fans made their minds up and are now determined that there was a list of superb managers who were lining up begging for the job. IMO if you were looking in from the outside, would they want to risk their reputation with the poor squad we had. I know im swimming against the tide but Im all for giving him a chance, we all gain from him succeeding. I was there when Lawrie was getting pelters when he first came ( I admit I was one, although only 13/14 and didnt know better) Perhaps I learnt from that and see that unlike Pellegrino, Gray Wigley , NJ has something more about him. I will openly admit Im wrong if if does go pear shaped

That just shows how shallow or stupid footballers are

I have not seen such biased commentary and coverage (both games) in my life. The big thing that Newcastle seem to be so hard done to that they haven't won anything for years and how its so nice for their support. Hello, we are in the same boat, we give our lives to following our club 24/7. Another night where I couldn't sleep as I was reliving AA miss etc. I dont know what came over me, as Iwas watching with the wife and when Bruno was sent off I was flicking V's at the screen and telling him to f right off lol. Comical for a man of my age Frannie is a wonderful person but never really fights our corner, is too intent on being the nice man he is. No barbed comments, Shay Given took no prisoners and partisan.

Southampton(1) 1-2 (3)Newcastle - League Cup Semi Final - Second Leg
OldNick replied to Chez's topic in The Saints
As in the first leg, their runs from midfield were not picked up. Either lazy or not doing their job for both goals last night. Surely the plan was to keep it at 1-0 from first leg, frustrate the crowd, (who soon lost their shout when we scored) and then go for it later in the game. Like a european game. Sadly that fell apart early doors. -
He was surprisingly decent last night. Calm and measured
-
I thought in the first half he was ok, second half I was impressed with his passing and interchanging down his flank, who I did think was absolutely abysmal was Salisa
-
Your football knowledge is legendary and so that must be the answer

Perhaps Im not so rabid in my opinions I can see improvement. You said sfa after the 3 wins in a row. The detractors slipped bck under the rock and slip back out again when things have a downturn. It doesn't matter what I think or you think, the people that matter are those who have just spent another 60m. They chose him, they back him and quite frankly you and I mean jot. So I have the mindset on this that we have him, they are unlikely now to get rid of him unless we lose the next 3-5 games. So why twist yourselves up with formations, who YOU believe should be picked and who you would like as manager. So the way for us to be in the PL next season, is for our brilliant support to get behind us and try and roar us on to survival. Those fans last night were superb and if we can take a leaf out of their book and make SMS a place of great support it increases our chances. If we sack NJ who is there that will take us forward???

Turkish, I have put you down as one of the more reasoned judges on here, see I do get it wrong at times
-
Bree was pretty decent last night.
-
Nothing like backing the club
-
Our travelling support, they were superb last night and were audible in that cauldron. As NJ pointed out they were magnificent. Well done you made me proud, and got the credit you deserve. Hope you have recovered from that long journey

That is great. How about not waiting and actually trying to be positive. All the time we are eroding the confidence of the club when we dearly need the support. I dont care if you shout you were wrong as with the stupid Brexiteers, they will always make an excuse that they weren't wrong. Get behind the team and if we dont get out of trouble and are relegated dismally then you can put a great big flag out saying 'look at me, I knew it all along' Keep going on about the manager will hurt, you .me and the fanbase as the club will fail. NJ is not a wonderful manager but he is ours and so we need him to succeed. Anyway lets move on and hope the club is improving for us all to be happy
-
So a player doesnt take into account the manager. So all this 'underwhelming appointment' bollox Ive been reading actually means nothing lol
-
As I put to Derry earlier 'Crikey you are worse than my daughter when ordering Chinese take away when she is not paying for 'Ill have a bit of this, oh and that, don't forget to get that as well'
-
well if it was Ralph, or Poch or Koeman we would laud them as a draw to the club so why not a passionate call by NJ telling them his plan?
-
I think you need to be at Staplewood,
-
Where did you get a blow up figure of Westwood from
-
In all my years following Saints I have never experienced a deadline day quite like this. I now know what it feels to be a West Ham fan
-
'with all due respect' I think the fanbase need to start showing some respect to SR and NJ..... if this comes off of course
