What an adverse way of looking at things.

I'm sure that's what martinez done with Wigan in the FA Cup run so assuming he does it in january, can you imagine how poor we will be with say Lukaku and Ross on the bench with Kone and Naismith up against your spurs/citehs. For me it's why January he needs to get that 2nd striker in who could hopefully go on a purple patch run ala jelavic and turn our season around.

Turn our season round? We've not had any problem scoring goals and we're in a semi final.

Exactly and we are 10th can you imagine where we would be without Rom on fire? At some point the bloke will need a rest/have a dip in form and that'll be the worry as we massively rely on him. An injury or dip in form and we'll struggle unless the defence/GK suddenly decide to turn up and grind out results.

I think the club need to tap into the obvious talent within our fan Base

In this thread alone all of the club's failings on the pitch have been sorted by the tactical geniuses within our midst

Luckily for us they're all in their twenties too and will only get better.

I hate this bull

Rom is the forward, he's there to score and has been

If another player was starting instead of him there is no telling if that player wouldn't have scored more or less goals than Rom, it's impossible to know

I think an away draw has now become the new away defeat. At least it is not an away defeat is an away 'win'. Howay man.

So cure the defensive issues by buying a forward?

'All this', actually constitutes discussion on a football message board forum. Geordies are also known for deluding themselves into thinking that they have one of the greatest teams in the league when they really do not, and kopites are known for not allowing anyone to express an opinion that differs from the cults delusion.

Geordies have drove out managers they shouldn't because they have a self important fanbase trying to run the club by proxy.

But it's ok you can call these fans Kopites if you like, I think that's a bit cruel.

But there is no Martinez Out campaign to speak of. Nobody is using bed sheets with incorrect spelling to protest at the match. What there is, is a lot of shouting down about anyone who doesn't agree with the current delusion. They are all FM beauts under the age of 30, apparently.
