Could be the Vegan diet!

Smallwood got the reducer in on Buendia early doors

Depends how quickly he can develop that upper body strength. If you look at how Nyambe has bulked up in the last two years Ben is still growing at 19 could be a monster in two years time.

Level 7 is in the gods

Got my Newcastle ticket level 7. Northern on strike all Saturday's in January.

In a two year period there has been generally one that has made the step up to the first team the most recent examples being Lenihan, Nyambe and Raya these having come through in say the last four / five years. So on that basis we are perhaps ahead of par. Prior to that would be Handley, Jones Henley and Jake Kean some more successful than others.

There is only Raya who Mowbray has promoted to the first team on a permanent basis in his tenure. 18 months ago seem to recall Mowbray questioning the whole affordability of the academy.

I suspect this isn't the full wack payable in January but is probably structured like the Rhodes deal with 2Million every twelve months over the length of the contract however that initial figure and subsequent payments should have gone on improving the first eleven. Seem to recall Mowbray saying in the broadcast of the fans forum that the ? was made available and he was encouraged to spend it. Thought at the time this seemed odd in view of previous statement from Mowbray about not spending all the budget because the right players were not available. Seems to have adopted a different approach on this one

With this survey being sent by the club to absentee fans could be Waggott preparing a defence when tasked later in the season on why he has failed to meet his attendance estimate. Not my fault Madame. We did a survey and they won't come back because of you! Most sane people know why attendance is down without needing a survey.

Waggott said there were 2500 who bought Preston tickets but had not been to a single home game this season how many other away matches attended wasn't disclosed

Supporters dont seem to have been aware of this blokes presence until after the event which is probably the best approach for any future visit by any of the family. At least he saw a good performance might have had different views if turned up at Preston or Wigan

Newcastle charging Fulham fans 30 pounds for game on 22nd December expect our cup match to be less

Ball no5 in tommorow s draw

Agree Gav 7M spent on 2 or 3 players ready for the first team could have significantly improved the side. I suspect this has come from the same place as the Rhodes purchase

That's as maybe did they work the keeper?

We're they on goal?

Despite being man marked yesterday still forced Rudd to make two decent saves. Apart from the Mulgrew free kick don't recall anyone else contributing serious efforts on goal apart from the goal and the disallowed goal. Dack starts for me Everytime when fit.

Statistics eh. Of those 2500 how many have bought a single ticket for an away match this season prior to Preston is the stat which would give a handle on whether these are away fans only or just single trippers to Preston. Nearly 50% sales for a single day out to Preston is hard to believe suggests numbers of home boycotters may be still a fair number

Hesketh Arms at junction of Blackpool Road and New Hall Lane was mentioned as a possible pre match boozer appears shut with the builders in.

For services to Blackburn Rovers.

Paid 16.50 this year think it was 10 last year.

I see John Filan was an assistant to Askey at Shrewsbury and has also gone

103 for 5 before a recovery confirms that fragile comment.. At least Keaton Jennings got 46.

Transpennine have a man airport to Preston service via Wigan. The Bolton Chorley line has had a bus replacement service many Saturdays
