Newcastle lost 3-1 to braga tonight. We were terrible in the first half but pardew actually seemed to motivate people for the second half.
It was rio ave
See the tactics have not changed. Still missing out the midfield good to see Pardew has learnt from last season. Doesn't matter who we sign with this clowns tactics.
Last night confirmed lessons have not been learnt.

whats worse Joekin talking or Joekin being quiet
Just him in general
His empty promises of getting players
Across the line is worse than lam bezel
As he would call him
Very worried
Losing in Portugal
And still no players in
Our already weakened squad
Being in the same room (bar) as the loud mouthed ignorant fool.
Big deal we lost in portugal. its about getting match fit, yes its nice to get a wining mentality, but man u and cited lost to unknown teams
The result is not important but the fact Pardew insist on using the same tactic as last season is important. I guess his statement of learning from past mistakes is the same as JK being a top DOF.
We once lost 6-1 to leyton orient, we didn't have a bad season after that.
man utd recently lost to a Thai all stars team, does that mean they'll get relegated. no.
man city have lost bothe their friendly's so far, will they get relegated? no
take a chill pill, friendly's are about fitness, we still have a lot of time to get a few transfers in. yes I would prefer them early but we know that isn't happening.

Am I the only one excited for the new season?.
I think Newcastle will have a good season finishing between 5th and 10th. Also a good cup run.
Its also good to see Sunderland signing some quality, I think Newcastles and Sunderlands squads are pretty equal in terms of quality so should be good for the two clubs and a competative derby and great for the region.
Too many London clubs etc so the northeast big 2 can compete this season.
Oh and don't start all the rubbish who said sunderland are signing quality etc blah blah blah, because whether you can admit it or not THEY ARE.
I think Newcastle 6th sunderland 7th Newcastle Sunderland cup final. (wishfull thinking).
How are they then? Explain. I just don't see it. Very average players they are buying.
Going by tonights friendly v RIO AVE, so far i'm none too confident like: (
I agree with you about being excited, but i'm sorry sunderland are signing average at best, just what qpr did. giacherrini and altidore are good signings but that's it.
Im the original poster. By the way saying newcastle 6th Sunderland 7th was tongue in cheek although possible unlikely and as for both in a cup final more chance of winning euro millions.
But I do think we will both do very well and surprise a few.
At best we signed quality in january but also some dross and it nearly got us relegated. We had no time to put it right. if the mackems have signed some good and some bad at least they can put it right in january. We failed in last summer transfer window big time.
I don't get this Sunderland comparison with QPR. Its completely different. Qpr signed mercenaries only interested in money and glitzy London etc.
Sunderland are scouting players who fit in with Dicanios tactics and vision for next season, they have been picked carefully and they have scouted 5 players for each position and picked the one that's best for the club ie value for money etc etc.
Dicanio is strict and the players will be super fit, he is also making them bond with each other. None of that happened at Qpr.
Sunderland are far a more professional club than Qpr with no disrespects intended.
Its a completely different approach to Qpr.
It always makes me laugh when the mackems keep saying we are going to be super fit under PDC. Are other clubs players not fit?
Yes but sunderlands will be fitter, Dicanio focuses on fitness. You will soon see when sunderland win games in the 90+ minute.
Your right with what you say everyone should be fit but it doesn't work like that.
So it's down to fitness when you win games in stoppage time? Funny that as when we scored in time added on to win games the mackems cried luck. Which is it? Or is it just luck for us and fitness for you lot?
So if Di canio just focuses on fitness, what about tactics and match plan? Poor management.

I honestly don't get Ashley, his estimated fortune is now up at 2. 3bn, so if he gave us 100mill (less than 5%), that money would transform us into a top 4 club for atleast 1 season and then set a platform for us to stay on, which would surely enable him to get his money back within 1 season and then making profit during the next
He's already spent 100s of millions why would he give more when all u do is moan about him. would u if the fans hated you and it was your money. I don't think so
He's fortune is tied up in businesses its not in he's bank account.
That's irrelevant though, why would he as a businessman want to give newcastle 100 million. he wouldn't recoup that money by selling the club. He wants profits and to spend as little as possible to get those profits.
The only owners who spend big are either rich owners in the business for a hobby ie man city, Monaco, psg or rich owners who actually care for the club or support the club. Ashley is neither.
I bet Ashley's eyes lit up with the new TV deal. he's using that money in he's other businesses no doubt.
"Why would he give more when all you do is moan about him".
If he's so sick of the fans why doesn't he just do the honourable thing and remove himself from our club and sight - permanently?
Why would ANY Toon supporter stick up for Ashley at any time? Do you like being disrespected, ignored and treated like an person?

problem solved. Cisse to play wide left and wear a shirt with WINGA on it
Like it .
He could turn the W upside down and give it to their lass to wear.

nice to see our scouts globally searching according to pardew to bring us the best players, so far they gone to france again and villa park,
Wish they would look global. All the top teams around Europe are bringing in players from brazil and Argentina.
Bernard of brazil looks great, young left winger. Just what newcastle need. But is no chance we would be in for anyone who hasn't already played in Europe.
Why not take a chance on some South American players.
Bernard? Tats an example of good scouting? One of the most sought-after Brazilian players there is? See? Harder Than it looks this scouting lark.
Exactly sunderland are about to sign the most highly rated right back in south America in Peruzzi from Argentina.
If Bernard is a major player who is one of the sought after Brazilian going why is it that porto and spurs are the only 2 teams that have been linked with him.
If he is that well known and that big how come Madrid, Barca, PSG or any other mega rich club haven't bought him.
Am not trying to be a top football scout as previous poster makes out. Am just wondering why are we not in for such players, do we not have scouts in South America who see these players developing.
So why are our scouts so highly regarded? finishing near relegation hardly inspires me for the future signings, if their is any
Yeah 2nd choice Jonas lol
Scouts find the players they don't pick the tactics or play players out of position. That is down to Pardew.

cisse to fulham, cabaye to france, ben arfa to liverpool, am fed up like, al we are connected with is players past there best, well probs rush a couple of nee bodys in on deadline day, a bet we are connected with a big name on deadline day that just doesn't get over the lie. sick as a chip.
I must have missed those signings.
When did Cisse, Cabaye & Ben Arfa sign for their new clubs away from Newcastle?
Monday next week.

GomisAltidore)
I look forward to derby day.
Our 2nd 11 should be good enough on paper to beat a first team Sunderland side.
Player sent off from each side?
Agree with 2nd post.
Lol ya first team couldn't last year remember. gomis going to villa anyway so why put in players u ain't and won't be signing u might aswel stick ronaldo in
U think u are way better than u are my friend take the blinkers of. cissy kebab and arfa going. 3 best players going and who u gona get to replace em?ur doomed. comments like this is why u get laughed at
U should be dreading it. half ya team either be sold and the others ain't even in your squad. there is confident and down right arrogance but this is just stupidity
One derby win and the mackems think they are world beaters another false dawn awaits for the unwashed. The players you have signed are average at best and have done nothing in there previous leagues never mind they PL. come Christmas you will be in the bottom 3 and your stadium will go back to the usual empty void.
Not 1 safc fan thinks we are world beaters. we are doing good business and u are doing none at all! I suggest u do ya homework the some of the players have won more trophys and titles than your whole team combined. your either stupid or high. and we have officially made a bid for insigne that shows the ambition of the club. where is yours?
Agree with 8th post, sunderland to do a qpr
With the toons calamitous defence, you should rethink that statement, it will be the toon in the bottom 3 by Christmas. Give our regards to the cockneys, they have our full support.
Agree with none of the above but as a neutral I would be more excited if I were a mackem than a geordie about this season. Excitement does not of course mean success. it could be an exhilirating battle v relegation for the mackems but with PDC you just know it will be lively. Newcastle on the other hand are in a coma.
Re the second post. Footballers must learn to play on grass not paper. perhaps that's why you screwed up in april. 0 -3.
Stupid or high? I guess you never you visit your page to read the drivel that is posted on there. Spending to much time on ours seeing what we are doing. Unlike the unwashed Newcastle don't need a whole new team so no need for us to panic buy unlike you lot. Another false dawn awaits for Sunderland.
We did screw up no question but despite that we still finished above you. Again.

We have really missed out now we could of had bony and/or aubameyang now we have to go for two strikers (gomis gignac) who aren't really proven goalscorers, typical newcastle! We should have wrapped up the deals earlier on!
20 Jul 2013 00:20:46
man city spent 82 mil so far, how much have we spent agian??, them bigger teams just get bigger and bigger,
How much have arsenal and man u spent? 2mil?
It's the Norwiches and Southamptons we have to worry about now.
And the wee ones get smaller and smaller lol
We are turning into the wee one, other smaller clubs investing in their week areas with good signings, we arnt, we need to spend Man United aresnal onl need one quality player each time as their teams are quality already doh
20 Jul 2013 00:05:10
Liverpool interested in Ben arfa? That has not been rumoured or constantly reported before. The papers really have no imagination
No Chance, he is too good for Livepool
Hes too good for Liverpool then why is he playing for Newcastle a much Smaller club.
If he's to good for liverpool and he is at a mid table club like newcastle surely he will be moving on this summer my guess is monaco
Lower mid table if you do not mind.
