Yeah. Roeder was saying how fans likely be happy with a trophy and a mid-table finish. At this point a mid-table finish would be just peachy -- but someone has got to score goals. Trophies are pie-in-the-sky stuff when you're as bad as Newcastle appears to be. As a rare stateside Toon fan, I sure hope the flirtation with relegation doesn't carry on too long.

Thing is Roeder has taken every team down, no idea why they gave him the job. Youth team or reserve team coach as he was before is totally different to being a manager, those jobs it's about the individual it's not about the team as your only trying to bring one or two players through but first team football is all about the team and Roeder can't do the job.
