PEARS! I take it back, he's getting better every week. Superb performance tonight.

Regardless of what happens now, the lads can be proud of the shift they've put in. This referee needs sending back to the A-League though, most bent ref I've seen in years

Tbf Dubravka(sp?) has been fantastic for them as well.

He does but when was the last time he actually played any football, let alone against PL opposition?

SAMMMIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LETS GO LADS!

Okay, we have limitations but swapping a CB for another when needing a goal? Literally what is the point?

Game over. We've been awful since the subs and literally everyone saw it coming.

To be honest we have this issue even in Championship games, I'd argue a lot are lucky to be in the Championship. We're starting to get battered here, all men behind the ball effort from now I imagine.

Not really, it's not like he's had any control at all over how poor our squad is. Tony deliberately threw games in the cups.

I think we're also starting to tire a lot. This triple sub coming up is probably going to shift momentum significantly in Newcastle's favour. I hope I'm proved wrong.

How on earth did none of that go in?

If Brittain and Dolan were just a fraction quicker we'd have had a few more opportunities here.

Great until we have to defend a corner, weirdly.

Tbf is not exactly difficult, he just has to have 2 different tactics.

Will take that at half time, can't really complain about anyone in that half bar the silly yellow. Ref is bent but it hasn't been an issue yet. Defence solid so far - very pleased with how Eustace has us set up, we just need to turn a chance into a goal, ideally before we have to make subs.

That was an interesting set piece, you love to see it.

Unlikely, the comments I've seen from fans so far are quite negative towards it.

Moran is awful

You remember one more than I do. We've had some appalling picks for captain but he's got to be close to the top.

If this isn't at least 0-5 I'll be surprised. Shocking lineup but not really the manager's fault the club have left him with a bjnch of 12 year olds and a few dossers.

I had it in my head that the club had said they weren't putting gambling companies on the shirts anymore when we moved to Recoverite? Have I completely made that up?

On the flip side, yet another game against an awful side where we have failed to win. There's not a chance we're picking up points against sides at the top in the run in and we badly need points on the board now. We're awful and deserve to go down.

When the squad has anyone decent in it stripped and the top mamagement publicly state there is no ambition then it's only a matter of time until the more senior players give up. Sammie knows he'll get flogged in the summer anyway so why bother runming himself into the ground anymore. Waggott and Venkys out!

Every time you think they can't get worse they do. Absolutely no spine and I fully expect us to get nothing out of this now.

New era, old era, doesn't matter. Same players, same crap results. At the investment level we have we're only going one way, as much as Andy Holt thinks we have the greatest owners in the universe. And that's before you consider the non investment calamities.
