Iun Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 There's no great shame in seeing your team beaten by a better side, and no great victory in the crushing of a far inferior opponent. Congratulations to Portsmouth and Barnsley, nice to see victory for the little guys.
BlueStar Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 We're the only team to have knocked Barnsley out of a cup this season
Noodleman Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 So Newcastle fans, how confident are you that King Kev will turn it round and do you still think getting rid of Fat Sam was the right thing to do?
spirited away Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 So Newcastle fans, how confident are you that King Kev will turn it round and do you still think getting rid of Fat Sam was the right thing to do? Gotta love 'em. Still think they're a 'huge' team with lots of potential.
BlueStar Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 So Newcastle fans, how confident are you that King Kev will turn it round and do you still think getting rid of Fat Sam was the right thing to do? It was certainly the right thing to get rid of Sam, we're still paying for his dodgy deals and mismanagement now and it's his team which are showing no backbone. If replacing him with Keegan was a good idea or not is another story. After being linked with the likes of Deschamps and Houllier I was pretty put out when Keegan was announced, but once he was you have to get behind him. For what it's worth I'm sick of clueless southern arsehole Sky fans constantly going on about what Newcastle fans think or want, how big a club we think we are, how we'd prefer to lose 4-3 than win 1-0, and all this other shite when their entire knowledge on the subject comes from tabloid rags. Speaking of which, considering we're such a small club it's funny that we seem to take up about 10 pages of every paper's sports section when things are going wrong. Burnley beat Chelsea yesterday, Portsmouth beat Man U at Old Trafford, Liverpool beat us, but none of those teams are on the back page of my Sunday Mirror today, it's an A4 sized picture of Keegan and Terry Mac.
Ramar Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Sunday Mirror today, it's an A4 sized picture of Keegan and Terry Mac. News of the World has C. Ronaldo, confirming he's a little pussy.
MoogleViper Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 What a goal. This is why the FA Cup is great. So Newcastle fans, how confident are you that King Kev will turn it round and do you still think getting rid of Fat Sam was the right thing to do? From the start I thought getting rid of Big Sam was a bad thing to do and I've always thought Keegan was rubbish. Ashley hasn't got a clue what he's doing.
dwarf Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 King Kev was good, I think he's a good man-to-man manager and has all the passion BUT I don't think he has the knowledge of modern team tactics. Take a look at how dis-organised the defence is, there is a huge leak.

Take a look at how dis-organised the defence is, there is a huge leak. It's not the defence it's the whole team. They have no organisation. Oh and 2-0 now. I love the underdog.
BlueStar Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Get in you leek munching bastards, out the Smoggies go in spite of getting the easiest cup run I can remember anyone having.
dwarf Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Now Berbatov is a player. He'd become world famous if he played for a team that won trophies consistently. No offense to Spurs fans, in fact, Spurs fans are immense on the whole.
BeerMonkey Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 YEY CARDIFF WON!!! Will be chucking a bet on them winning the FA cup tomorrow
Roostophe Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 I'm chuffed Cardiff won. If Middlesbrough were to go all the way...

MadDog Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 I reckon West Brom could go on to win the Fa Cup this year, really do think they could win it.
BlueStar Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Now Berbatov is a player. He'd become world famous if he played for a team that won trophies consistently. A toon fan as well : peace:
spirited away Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 4-0, that'll do. We need a streak of wins under our belt to get back into the top-half of the league where we belong. Nice to see Gilberto score and calm his nerves, after his 'mare last Thursday...
BlueStar Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Thanks a bunch Arsenal, a blow to my fantasy team and my real life team.
Ramar Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Thanks a bunch Arsenal, a blow to my fantasy team and my real life team. Tell me about it, can make Milan look stupid midweek, then play like that. Disgrace, now its advantage Man Utd. Sometimes I wonder if the squad want to win the bloody league, we're constantly trying to cock it up.
dwarf Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Manu are crawling back into it, however its in each top teams hands to win against each other. If say Manu beat Arsenal and Chelsea I think it would be plain sailing, effectively a 6 points gap.
Fierce_LiNk Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I was angry when we lost to Portsmouth. I think I actually wanted to break my radio when the fulltime whistle went. However, seeing Chelsea get knocked out by Barnsley, Arsenal drawing to Wigan, and Wales winning the rugby actually cheered me up somewhat. You win some, you lose some. Blurgh!

Yea, the Chelsea loss soften the pain abit...if we won then one hand on the trophy
Davey_T Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Got Cardiff. Pretty happy about it too. Didnt fancy our chances against West Brom or Portsmouth even though we've beaten two of the best teams in the world to get here. Bring it on :P
darksnowman Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Just to clarify then, its: Barnsley v Cardiff West Brom v Portsmouth Anyone could be in the final.
