Its 3 years to the day that Cisse scored that wonder-volley at Chelsea that defied the laws of physics. Its probably not out of the question that there's a lot of fans for whom that was the least time they were that excited about the whole thing.

In a presser, Carver said nobody could have got a better record than him in this period.

Fuck me is he that delusional? 9 points from 15 league games and 12 defeats in all competitions (before this inevitable latest one) is a sign that he isn't qualified to lead an U15's team, nevermind a Premier League troupe.

He's an arrogant arsehole. Which is quite a feat considering he's the worst we've ever had.

There's a claim on Twitter that Carver is done after fighting a player on the team bus.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was true but its Twitter. It always makes me a little sad when these rumours appear on there but don't happen.

Amazing that Newcastle are still talking about the summer rebuild - The club haven't won since Carver made it clear that they were getting rid of the players that weren't good enough.

Latest claim is that Krul and Coloccini had a big row on the bus back north yesterday, with Krul criticising Coloccini's defending and leadership, and there's talk a new captain might be appointed for the final trio: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/newcastle-united/11580318/Newcastle-captain-Fabricio-Coloccini-in-bust-up-with-Tim-Krul-on-team-bus-after-Leicester-defeat.html

Someone had to say it I guess. Coloccini has been rotten for the best part of the last 3 years.

I know it's extremely unlikely with Sunderland's fixture list but what would actually happen to Newcastle if they got relegated?

John Carver has now said "Maybe the players are not listening to me."

Well no shit - ever since he's been promoted he's said a lot of them are shit.

There would be a lot of players being sold at the very least. We'd probably just be left with Paul Dummett.

If McClaren has turned down the job as he's worried about relegation, I hope Newcastle never consider giving him the job again. I hope Ashley uses his massive personal wealth to harass and annoy McClaren. I hope he buys all property surrounding McClaren's house and invites homeless drug addicts to squat there.

Mail reporting that Carver offered to step down but Steve McClaren said no, so he's being kept on, while the players had their own crisis meeting with none of the coaching staff invited.

Wouldn't surprise me if all of those farcical-sounding details were true tbh.

They've wheeled out Coloccini to make a statement thing: http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20150505/an-open-letter-from-the-captain_2281670_4693743

With any luck they'll have taught him how to fucking defend before WBA turn up.

Just like the glory days when Newcastle were turned down by McClaren, Bruce and Allardyce in the space of a week.

Going through twitter to see people talking about the "race for eighth". Newcastle as a club deserve relegation and John Carver quite frankly.

'All we want is a club that tries' - cries and throws a pity party for being eighth in the League.

Surely you can see that the lack of ambition in the 'race for eighth' is directly contributing to our problems now?

Finishing in the top ten before spending quite a bit in the summer = relegation battle.

Was quite clear Pardew wasn't up to leading this team forward and should have gone at the end of last year when we failed in the 'race for eighth'

Instead we were allowed to stagnate, didn't replace players properly and yes were unlucky with injuries and ended up in the same position in January.

Where we inexplicably sold some of our better players, didn't replace them at all and appointed the equivalent of a gorilla to our management position.

Quite surprising we're not bottom, tbh.
