Newcastle were horrendous again yesterday and Pardew is facing his first real crisis, The good will he earned from last season is in danger of evaporating cos what we are seeing is rubbish. Colocini is a big miss through injury and suspension. Tiote appears to be scared to tackle in case he gets sent off. Cisse is a busted flush, Guiterrez has done nothing all season, has not made or scored a goal. Cabaye and Ben Arfa are big misses, as are utilty men Ryan Tayler and Perchinio.

The squad is not big enough to cope with these injuries. Ferguson,Gosling,Obertan,Marveaux,Shola??????

None of them are good enough i'm afraid....

Stoke on Wednesday night and i am dreading it
