That boy Gartside is a cock. His comments when Allerdyce left, along the lines of Sammy Lee will be a better manager than Big Sam was cos Sammy Lee played international football as a player.....were just utter shite.

If he was/is a better manager then why not appoint him a few years ago and empty Big Sam then you tit?

Geordies are still living on memories of the excellent Keegan free flowing attacking football side. Unless you have an exceptional set of players you can't play like that any more. Allardyce will have them playing effective pressing football soon enough. I reckon Henrik Pedersen is a nap for the left back slot.
