So it's either rotate like last night or risk injurys for the weekend. I think at 2-2 he saw a chance of nicking it and made a couple of changes but unfortunate it didn't pan out. It would of been nice for a cup run yeah but there's always another cup and this year staying in that league is more important than anything.
it is a revenue stream
he is whinging we dont have enough money

get a decent draw and tv next round hey ho another player

and even he said himself we need to win it to lift the gloom

so he makes 10 changes

we still have a big enough squad to beat a fizzy team

he was negative from the off

has he even looked at new tatctics since he has been with us??

has he ever set us up in a positive formation

he sets us up to not loose

and maybe snatch a point

i dont mind loosing
i do mind playing and watching negative footy

every one had a go at pardew for no plan b

every one had a go ta pardew for taking players backwards

have any improved under rafa ?????
