Fed Up Of The Bad Press!
Well I am a regular poster on Teamtalk about Newcastle United and just got fed up of the moderated messages and bad press articles from people who know nothing about what is going on up north. So Newcastle United Blog has been born. Yes there are probably other sites out there but I thought why not! I want a place where other NUFC fans can come and discuss whats going on with their beloved club! The ins and outs! The nitty the gritty! The down right dirty!
Im sick of nobodies jumping on the bandwagon of news that the geordies are impatient but boy dont they love it so they can write those article inches or they would be out of a job!
Well lets get talking Newcastle United!
Feel free to post comments on discussions after all its what its all about!

Have to applaud you mate, as I’m in total agreement.
I never posted much on TeamTalk, mainly coz of the f**king retards on there.
People are saying that we are a joke. Maybe we are, but how much of a joke would be fighting and possibly losing the battle to retain Premiership status.
How easy is it for Man Utd fans etc to slag us off? Have they ever had the incompetent managers we’ve had? Where are all these other managers that we’ve sacked?
Gullit? nowhere
Dalgleish? nowhere
Souness? nowhere (police eventually possibly :p )
Roeder? Norwich………….. enuff said
Could it be that we were right?
When the news was announced last night I got about a dozen texts inside 15mins from my mates saying they were glad for us and wishing us better luck. Now these guys are Arsenal, Man U, Liverpool, West Ham fans. Not difficult to be nice about these things, just takes a few brain cells?

I know its very easy for people to sit there and say give him time if they are at another club winning things and qualifying for Europe. Whats annoying is that some of Newcastle players are good players. Im sorry but you can’t pull the wool over the toon army we know what good football is up here and whether the tactics and game are being played correctly. The worry thing was that alot of die hard fans were getting turned off. Once thats happens its a slippery slope and from a business point of view that can never happen. Ive had some of my mates as well saying that having watched Newcastle of late they can see why we got shot of him. Your right about those managers… theyve gone nowhere since. Its far too easy for other fans to say here we go again you lot are stupid but quite simply they been wrong for the club apart from Sir Bobby. Most of the appointments are by a rubbish chairman who probably had other motivations…. if you get my meaning.

Well Ashley and Mort have at last delivered a message to the Loyal Toon Army. Sacking Big Sam just after his press conferance says that they hold the power and are not afraid to use it when they want to. Lets hope they dont stop there, get rid of Barton while your on. He does’nt deserve to wear the shirt, we dont need thugs in the team like him, we need passionate players that are prepared to give their all for the Toon.
As for a New Manager, Shearer’s been mentioned all over the media, but he is up they with all the Toon Legends . My Heart says yes to Shearer but my Head says no, Leave Him up there with the Gods of St James’s, not added to the list of managers in recent history.
Lets go for a manager who can play the players in their correct position not the square pegs in round holes that we have had to suffer this season. Someone that not afraid to go for it from the kick off, you can’t win games without goals.
Who ever gets the Toon Job, will speak volumes as to where Mr Ashley and Mr Mort are taking Our Club.
I’ve just seen Big Sam on the box, mind he realy looks cut up about loosing his job,{ NOT } looks pleased to get the monkey off his back and jet off to the sun with their Lass and check his bank balance on his laptop on a hot beach someware.

Wasnt Sir Bobby the last appointment by Sir John Hall or am I mistaken?
On paper the squad looks promising, with only a creative midfielder and (possibly) a striker really being required. Put the players in their best positions and you’ll get the best out of them. Any one of us knows that simple principle…
The media are gonna hype this up for a couple of days, then shoot at us if we badly screw the Man U game. Then this will peter out as news once Rafa gets the chop :)))

I wouldnt rule out Rafa being in the Newcastle dugout sooner rather than later. I really wouldnt. Don’t know if he’d be the Newcastle fans choice but it would signal an intention by Ashley and he has the credentials.
