I accept Roy as manager because he’s about as safe on a low budget and value for money for us and the board as you can find, plus he’s not going to continue for much longer because of his age. Some will say why not move him on now then. But by God I’m bored watching at the moment. Just think if we did have a new stand and 36,000 capacity. We wouldn’t fill it with the football we’re playing.

Pleased Pulis and Sam fvcked off as they’re a pair of w@nkers. Pulis was never a long term option and Parish deserves a lot of credit for using him rather than the other way round. If the papers are to be believed Pulis didn’t want Wilf. There was nothing steady about de Boer.

Think your hatred of Hodgson is causing you to not see and understand how well we kept Newcastle busy at both ends.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, we’ll always be safe under Roy, just! Even that may be down to the sheer team on paper.

I think people get far too impassioned on here about Roy staying or going. Only my opinion but barring FDB/Pardew-esque disastrous circumstances, Roy earned his right to be our manager this season and quite possibly next. Like it or not we are staying up and are currently 12th.

I think we have two choices really:

1. Stick with Roy for more of the same rocky road with a reasonably comfortable close of season as a PL team.

2. Throw the dice and get someone new in with the hope, and it is a hope despite some people insisting the grass will be greener, that one of our best squads ever will perform at a higher level consistently next season.

I am personally in favour of the latter purely as a season ticket holder maybe a different style will mean better home performances but that is in no way guaranteed. Either way, Roy is one of our own and I hope it ends happily for the old fella.

Some petty and surprisingly vindictive toing and throwing going on, cheer up you can’t possibly be in a bad mood now! COYP!!!!

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

We had 3 shots.

1 was on target, which was a penalty.

All their keeper did was pick the ball out of the net when Luka scored.

How is exactly is that keeping them busy?

Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha.

This is the crux of it and why I’m not getting too bothered about how bored I am. But I am bored. When the time comes I hope Parish doesn’t take 6 weeks after Hodgson has left. Really he should be at least 6 weeks before. Tbh he should always know who’s out there. I bet he doesn’t.
