I'd say O'Neill has 2 games left at most. He's walking a very thin line now. A loss tonight and who knows, could be gone in the morning. 2 wins in 23 Premier League games is appalling
I'd say Pardew would have likely been out by now too if he hadn't signed an 8 year deal.
Can't really blame Pardew for the boards inability to strengthen areas. We'll be signing away in January that's for sure but it's going to be too late if we fail to get results before then.
Turns out there is a clause in Demba Ba's contract for January.. Hilarious really when told in August that was it for a year now. £7.5m you'd think it was a guarantee that he'd be off but it's whether he want's to stay or leave that's key, also noting the cost of actually signing this guy is up nearer the £30 million mark after fee's and wage demands. Clubs buying also need to negotiate the same protection clauses Newcastle inserted in his contract with regards to the knee and so on, Something that was much easier to do with him being a free agent than it will be after he's scoring for fun. I hope he doesn't move but as long as there is a striker incoming then so be it. I'm more concerned about clubs taking notice of Hatem Ben Arfa.

So far Newcastle have yet to receive a single phone call enquiring about the Senegalese forward.

Why isn't Mr Rodgers on the phone? Blowing 30 odd million is what Liverpool do best isn't it?
