    Mid-table not good enough for such a &quot;massive&quot; club *, so they get shut. I think come the end of the season they might think mid-table with a new manager was OK. It could get a whole heap worse for them without Big Sam.</p>

    * I know they have strong support but it's not like they've every really won much in the past is it?</p>

    Only reason Newcastle have lots of fans* is because Newcastle is a big city with one club. Look at the other big cities in England, Sheffield, Manchester, Liverpool, Bristol, London. All 2 teams or more meaning they have to split their support. If there was one team in Liverpool they would get around 60/70k so that doesn't make them bigger. They don't deserve to be in europe at all, and they are only ones that think they should be. Dimbats.

    *Don't think fans is the right word, but they go to the matches. getting on your teams back at every moment is what being a fan is all about.
