Season review? Nah, i'll give it a pass.....

Was thinking of writing up a season review but after reflecting on what has been a season of disappointment, internal problems on and off the pitch and underperforming players, i decided not to waste my time on it. I know it is my team for almost 15 years and all that but that feeling of huge disappointment in me just took its toll. I'm sure all newcastle fans understand what i'm going through. We are all going through the same thing. For those who hasn't got the slightest idea of what i'm trying to say, don't bother trying to understand because if you ain't a football fan, you won't understand.

In my opinion, i can't see the dark grey skies hovering St James Park clearing anytime soon. From reports and end of season reports from various websites, i just have that feeling of resignation that it will be another long, hard season for us lot again. Bellers is gone. According to Souness that is. Insisting that he will never play for him again. That are some stats about him. Later on that......

Aaron hughes might also be on the way out. Geez man. I can't believe they are selling him. He may not be world class but he does his job when required and always do his best. Robert may soon follow suit. One person who is out is Patrick Kluivert. The most disappointing player this season, period. High hopes at the start of the campaign but nothing to show for. I was so excited at his arrival that i thought this is it. Its our time now, coupled with the Nicky Butt, James Milner and Stephen Carr signings. But i wasn't to be. And with news over the sale of Woodgate and the supposedly bid for Wayne Rooney when clearly we needed a centre back, i could sense that all is not well. And unfortunately i was right. At the end of August with 2 points and 2 losses, Sir Bobby was sacked. He had lost it. The players, the plot, everything. From that onwards, it was always going to be a long hard struggle throughout the season and it proved.

Well, i'm going to stop right here because its just no use going through the whole season. Its just painstaking to do so. Souness has got to do something about the situation. If he doesn't, then things are just going to get worse. We can all hope. One thing sure remains though, we will all continue to support the team through the good and bad times. And by god we will.
