A lot of Newcastle fans will be in the dark as to why Pardew isn't well-liked in Berkshire. Can you briefly explain it? Most people don't care any more. He did a lot of good for us. Some silly business with West Ham, but we mostly just like to beat them now, rather than harbouring hatred for Pardew. A lot of our fans joined after the whole affair anyway.

A lot of pundits are tipping Reading for relegation. Lazy journalists picking on the newly promoted, or do you share their prediction? see above.

The last game at Elm park was just over a decade ago, how do the older fans feel about the move away from the town centre and into the new stadium? I was young during the EP days, but I have fond memories. The new set-up is a bit soul-less and naff but it's much healthier for the club.

What would your reply be to the pillock who said this "I hope we stuff them. Reading fans are the biggest c*nts in football. To a man. No exceptions."? Oh... Oh yeah?

MY formative football spectating years were spent at Elm Park, I went there in my prime, all my stupid friends went there, it's (still) a part of me in a way that whatever the new ground is called never will be. I understand why we moved and obviously* we're all better off for it, but I'm fucked if I'll ever admit to enjoying going to the new ground more than the old one.

There, I said it.

* obviously

Cheers all, i'll hoy a load of those replies over.

If we go down, can we give it all the biggun' asking patronising questions like "which one of your players, none of which we have ever heard of because we weren't in the same league last year, lols, should we be wary of?" to Barnsley et al.

Have to Lol at the "Which Newcastle players are you worried about?" question. What sort of groundbreaking answer are they expecting here?
