Big Sam. ‘deal’ is the missing word in between.
So Mr Allardyce thinks Rafa is lucky to have kept his job as he hasn’t won the Premier League in his years at Anfield.
Well they say us fans don’t know much about football, but yesterday proved them wrong. A television shot you will see oft repeated was of Sam foreground and 2 fans behind him shouting “You don’t know what you’re doing”.
I watched the game sat next to 5 Geordies. They had kept their shirts on, but that’s Scotland for you in the autumn. Bu they were tearing their hair out. 3 at the back? Milner not on? No shots at goal? and so it went on.
Humble Pie is a tricky dish to eat when your big mouth is full of chewing gum, but Sam, honestly, just becuase Rafa (and Arsene and Alex) don’t like the way you set up Bolton; is that good enough reason to utterly disrespect a manager who has taken his team to 2 Champions League finals?
Big Deal Sam, big deal. oh and good luck at the poisoned chalice that is Newcastle. New castle? same old story.
meanwhile poor Rafa can’t win. he wins against the barcodes yesterday handsomely - well why do we need any new players? He loses? well what’s he doing in the job?
I noticed with interest that as soon as Gerrard went off, so did we off the boil. Testament to my belief that John Arne Riise isn’t the sharpest tool in the box (in fact, nor the 17th sharpest, just coming below the soft mallet), i watched and winced as he took the ball and passed it without looking straight up the park. To the opposition. We lost our way a little bit in the last ten minutes. Luckily Newcastle have still to find theres.
Oh and good to see Harry play without any complaint. From him.

I think sometimes it’s the Newcastle fans who don’t know what they are doing. Self-acclaimed best fans in the world. Utter nonsense. They continually get on certain players backs, happy to boo the team off at half time and full time and still believe that Alan Shearer has got a personality.
I’m a great believer in the fans playing an important part in a team’s success (Chelsea excluded) and on the reverse play a huge part in a team not doing well.

i have to agree. I think that booing is a no-no and yet they seem to think it part and parcel of a game. They’re a fickle bunch but I can’t disagree with their frustration at their club yesterday.
