none of our players would get in any of the top seven teams

probably not in Newcastle's either.

We can't compete with them except occasionally grabbing the odd result when they play badly.

We are competing fine with all the other teams.

The reason we stayed up last season (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Jan 11, 18:53:17
- a little bit distorted in that we get most of the top teams at home (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Jan 11, 18:56:05
- you were convinced we were going down last season (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 18:55:34
  - Do you think we'll finish 11th again under this manager? With our last 4 games? (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Jan 11, 18:57:26
    - I don't think we'll finish 11th again this season whoever is manager (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 11, 19:20:29
    - last four games could work in our favour (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:00:50
      - Do you seriously think any of the top 4 will have nothing to play for (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Jan 11, 19:05:24
        
        in reality we won't know this until we play them (NCFC) - Kar1, Jan 11, 19:07:49
        
        Very possible - as with Man City away last season (n/m) (NCFC) - grumpy, Jan 11, 19:06:32
        
        *any of those 4, that should say (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Jan 11, 19:06:31
- Trouble is everybody strengthened even Cardiff spent 35 million (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 18:55:15
  - we spent a lot more than plenty of clubs down there (NCFC) - wolfio, Jan 11, 19:08:10
  - Yes: to a Championship side. We added to a side which was at least half a level better (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Jan 11, 18:56:21
    - Point remains we spent a lot for us... (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 19:00:47
      - we finished 11th and 12th, so had a mid table prem squad and then spent a lot of money. (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:06:58
        
        But it wasn't just Cardiff that spent money ... (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 19:08:56
        
        Hughton spent his money well by all accounts and yet results are significantly worse (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:11:54
        
        a lot more key injuries this year (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 11, 19:15:50
        
        and yet I can hardly remember a weak First XI put out in the league (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:18:11
        
        how many weak XIs have we played against then? (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 11, 19:25:51
        
        Everton had there first choice central defenders out today (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:27:28
        
        they missed one first choice defender - Distin (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:29:43
        
        I think you badly over-rate our squad (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:19:46
        
        Top 4 Everton.. No Shit... (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:20:37
        
        Well, you could apply that to all of the top seven (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:22:18
        
        Top 6 Top 7 Top 8... changes every week depending on who beats us (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:25:11
        
        none of our players would get in any of the top seven teams (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:28:55
        
        competing fine = a couple of points better of than the worst of them (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:32:41
        
        results are not significantly worse (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:13:40
        
        points are well down on this time last season (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:14:08
        
        not all seasons follow exactly the same pattern (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:15:40
        
        not in points we aren't, we are down on last season (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:17:15
        
        we are three points from 10th (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:19:05
        
        and 3 points from 20th (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:19:32
        
        correct - so why do you say 12th - 20th (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:20:09
        
        because we won't finish that high (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:21:21
        
        I think more chance of 10th than 20th (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 11, 19:22:34
        
        I think if Hooper gets injured we will be relegated (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:24:14
        
        goals are down... goals against are up (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:14:22
        
        Time for a change yes I tend to agree (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 19:13:24
        
        beat Hull and we could end up 11th or 12th lose and we could end up in the drop zone (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 11, 19:15:33
