Agree he might come on, in my opinion Bell had both his worst half of football and his best half of football for us in the Newcastle game.

Who else?

I know he’s been playing a few years and it’s good money, but he’s probably only just topped 1.5-2m in career earnings max. So I wouldn’t class him as “a millionaire” in the same league as Becks. Most of it goes on mayonnaise and Strawberry Wu Wus.

Leeds and SUFC top two, and Derby in the playoffs (on penalties) wouldn’t be a bad shout.

They’re harder than the blokes.

Should be a cricket score. You seen what our lot are doing to teams in their own division? Get down there you locals.

Ah good I’m glad we’re back on this again.

Looked well on the telly with the majority in the two big stands.

Betting the house on Alan Judge anytime goalscorer

Could be rested? It’s only poxy Ipswich and he’s our best midfielder ?

Win more games than we lose Soz Pep

As well as being wrong - Have you been tested for selective amnesia? You do remember the two or three games before this one?

It did change a bit as the game wore on, but the gap down the left hand side first half was terrifyingly vast. Reed was a bit more cautious as wing back than Benno.

I think we are doing well. I think we’ll be knocking on the playoff door, or at least comfortably mid table. Sometimes think some people on here have completely forgotten the last few years

"It wasn’t until this afternoon that we knew we’d play with three at the back, with Rodwell and Downing being ill and not being able to make it, as well as [Charlie] Mulgrew and [Derrick] Williams being injured. “We were left with one centre half and had to concoct a defence. - Horses mouth

Yes and Dack is half leaving.

Right. So we’re using made up conspiracy theories now to have a go at the manager.

He’s ill.

Are you fucking joking?

I think I’ll log off tbh. TMB&WA

I’m his biggest supporter on here, but he certainly wasn’t great tonight. Really didn’t seem match fit tbh.

True

I’d say a missed offside decision sealed it. Although it was poor from Raya. It happens. If it didn’t he’d be playing for Man Utd.

Never really got going, although for the majority we were the better team. Makeshift side going down against Premier League players with a wildly deflected shot and an offside goal isn’t too bad really. I look forward to visiting St. James’ Park again next season. NEXT!

Bell much improved 2nd half
