Newcastle United... imo should go down, based on their quality of football. That was another woeful display last night, and largely out played by Portsmouth. The bottom line is that they are full of has-beens and below average players. They threw out the talent...with the likes of Emre. The only players I really have time for is maybe Duff or Smith... Look at the one dimension Nicky Butt... absolutely rubbish player who should be now playing football for Hartlepool. All I have seen him do this season in the heart of midfileld is make slow short passes, or a long floating ball to the front men, with no pace or penetration...they are always cut out. He makes no tackles, no fight...and yet he is favoured above others with lots of potential.
Blame the Management, and a succession of Managers who either didnt have a clue or who were not given enough time to bring in their own players. Newcasle are NOT above themselves just because they have a large Stadium and have a large fan base... they are down there and will go down based on shit football campared with the other teams round them.
They seriously are bad, they deserve to get relegated. Along with Middlesboro and West Brom. The rest hae done enough to stay up imo.
