McCLAREN VISITS WHITLEY BAY BEACH!

Yet more amazin' statements have been uttered by 'The Wally (withoot!) the Brolly'

Taalkin' aboot the lang torm injury to goalie Tim Krul: 
"It's a massive blow for us!---He's a vital player and he would get us 18-20 points a season with the way he plays!" <(Krul played in the forst 8 games and we have THREE points to show with him between 'the sticks'!)

NOT SO GREAT expectations!: Before the season started both wor 'beloved' MD 'Penfold' and McClaren said (in so many words):
"We expect a top EIGHT finish and a good run in the cups!"
Now after a terrible start and defeat to Sheff Wed resorves in the Leegue Cup the 'goalposts have been moved' and a 40 point target iz now wor aim! <(highly unlikely we'll get that eethaa, me finks!)

The Leegue table etc-- On hiz arrival he said that we shud judge him after TEN games---He now says:
"I don't look at the table, not the first half of the season and DEFINATLY NOT the first TEN games!"

A GAME OF ONE HALF!:

"ONE half wonders!"

After the disastrous 6-1 defeat at Man City he made the players watch the FORST half of the game (when it waz 1-1) but SWITCHED THE TELLY OFF! for the SECOND HALF debacle?:
"WE played really well for 45 minutes!"
AYE!--that's reet Steve, but why not show them the total collapse in the 2nd half az well?---IZ he in denial??----IZ he buryin' hiz heed in the sand????---We leave yoo to draw your own conclusions!
