Big Sam sacked

[Minder]

I saw Newcastle play at Eastlands in October (was extremely bored in the flat) and I should have demanded my money back. City destroyed them.There problem as always was defending. How hard can it be to find 4 decent defenders. Given turned round to us behind the goals and basically said what the hell was he supposed to do. The worse team I've ever seen live. I feel for their fans. The club seems to be unable of ever achieving success.

Their fans are a shower of whinging f**kers, they think they have some sort of divine right to be challenging and winning major honours. I remember Keegans first game in charge, there were 29000 at St James Park, i would hazard a guess that there wasnt half that the previous week.

Bit harsh. I know a few Geordies and they're reall football men.

I used to live with a Geordie girl at Uni and she had the biggest tits you ever saw.

Geordie women are some craic as well. Love the sauce.

[ONeill]

Oh aye, and Coleman's not English.

Oh yes it is.

[Rossfan]

Ah yes the self appointed best fans in the world, the Geordies. ....

Have the Irish lost their title ??

[Canalman]

Rossfan you surely must have forgotten about the Munster Rugby fans/ hooray henrys. Definitely up there with the self appointed best supporters in the World tribes.

[qub la la la]

newcastle would do well to realise they are not a big club. they came close to the premiership once and no matter how much any geordie would "love it if we beat them" they are shite. a team of rejects from the big clubs. might have a big fan base but that doesnt win games. Gave big sam the boot a but prematurely i think. he has been without viduka and duff and a defense. could have done a job if given the time.

I saw somewhere yesterday they are 12th biggest Soccer club in the world and 5th biggest in the YUK.

As for the best fans in the world title -
could this not be added to the olympics or would that spoil all the make believe?

WTF...how does a team that wins nothing yearly be 12thh biggest in the world..what was it called the Toon Daily Mail

They reckon sam didn't buy into the ethos of the geordies: play attacking, flowing football and win f all.

[AZOffaly]

No. Sam's idealogy is play putrid, negative football and win f..k all.

Well realistically what was he going to win at Bolton, he overachieved if anything with the Trotters.

[AZOffaly]

In my opinion he will never win anything of note, other than possibly a cup, at any club. In my mind he is one of those managers destined to always manage either Championship winning teams like Reading, Watford, Wolves or whomever, or else Premiership teams that finish between 6th and 12th.

Nothing personal against him, don't know anything about him as a man, but he seems to be much more about stopping the opposition playing than actually making his own team play.

Having said all that, I wouldn't mind him as the next Ireland manager because those attributes can carry you a long way in international football.

[Uladh]

i disagree. given time and a competitive budget, sam's methods would have brought the magpies to at least the champions league. pretty pictures more often than not achieve v little at the highest level of sport. look at arsenal.

Top of the league playing the "prettiest" football in England at the moment!
