As much time as I have for Jonas, they weren't going to pay him 30k/wk to be a backup, nor should they have. The way they let him know was beyond...
The board developments are far more interesting to me than the managerial appointment, in all honesty. Ashley putting football men (and Charnley)...
Supposedly Portland will put a mix of senior and reserve players, a la a typical MLS friendly. I'm taking my two older sons to that game. Oh,...
He scored 16 goals in the Segunda as a winger/playmaker type (ie, not target forward). That probably doesn't mean anything, but it might. Also:...
Cabella (again/still) and Andros Townsend making the rounds as nearly "over the line."
Shola was released today. Not the greatest player but spent 14 years in the black and white and could never be accused of not caring. And of...
I got 1 and 20 right. Whiffed everywhere in between.
I don't think there'd be any struggle. That squad would be relegated no sweat. That back five would ship more goals than Fulham. Apparently...
Thank goodness that debacle is over. Now for the silly season. We all know the top two desired transfers out would be Ashley and Pardew. Neither...
Genuinely wondering how many of these guys we'll have next year.

And Pardew basically confirms it in this interview, along with plans to discipline him for not toeing the line.
Telegraph has a sit-down with Ben Arfa. Highlights, according to Hatem: - Not injured. - Training with the reserves. - Doesn't know why he's...
Did some number crunching. In the last 19 league games (half a season): - 5 wins - 13 losses - 1 draw - 15 goals scored (5-1, 4-1, 3-1 victories...
(insert some rehash of my prior posts about how crap we are here. If they can't give effort, neither will I.)
No fit strikers to start next season. Awesome!
Cisse supposedly out for the season and possibly preseason with a broken kneecap.
Not sure what Tiote was thinking other than trying to give away a last-minute penalty to undermine the manager. We can hope, right? He didn't even...
NUFC (3-4-1-2) : Krul; Coloccini, Williamson, Dummett; Anita, Gosling, Tiote, Gouffran; De Jong; Cisse, Shola. Subs: Elliot, Debuchy, Haidara,...
He apparently refused to answer a Chronicle question today, but answered the same question from a different outlet.
I'm trying to figure out which 10 senior players we're missing. It's one thing to make excuses, it's another entirely to just start making stuff up.

It's the local media's fault. And that we're missing 10 senior players. Pardew said it so it has to he true, yeah?
I really am past the point of caring. Wake up, get my figurative kick in the balls, and go about my day.
