Big Geordie

Was just coming in to post that. The battering off Blyth yesterday, must have been final straw.

It's worth noting that the usual media haters will be loving this, because it gives them another excuse to 'stick it to the Saudis and PIF'. These cunts love stoking division and are aided by the small but very vocal malcontents among our support, as well as from other clubs. Now is not the time to panic - let Eddie regroup the players - hopefully get some loan signings in sharpish, in Jan (Tonali can be replaced in squad, etc) The reduction of the amount of games we are on will also help massively. We will be OK. Good run at the FA Cup and a top 10 finish would be OK by me, all things considered.

There it is 3-2 Man United Hojland

2-2 Garnacho

Ruled out Offside

Garnacho pulls one back VAR check though

Our lass due back from Norway and then have got a sleepover shift the day after. Otherwise - would have been interesting.

Darlington looking doomed as well.

As said before, he was brought in to do a particular job, which he did (help keep us up) He then moved on - with no ill will from most decent Mags. He's not as bad a player as some make out.

Blyth end up winning 3-1. Terrific win.

Make that 3-0

Blyth currently 2-0 up at South Shields

Again - the lads not fully fit. Same as Gordon.

Lack of rotation, too many games and injuries. We badly need an injection of new players come January.

He's not fully fit.

Unfortunately the calls in the media for his sacking will only get louder. Me - it's a bumpy time, but Eddie will see us through.

Radio Newcastle saying Tripps is playing DC?

Also worth pointing out that we (as a club) have a terrible Boxing Day record.

This feels to me like a reminder of NYD 1990 - Newcastle v Wolves and Steve Bull. A holiday time apparition. Too many players not fit, or desperately out of form. Eddie's got a job on.

The panic on here. I think we have done OK going forwards, but we always knew that Elanga was gonna get the run on Dan Burn. Gibbs-White is a really, really good player and is their key man when playing on the counter. Again - we have players who are out of form and probably not fully fit. Keep a bit of perspective.

Save!

Would just take a win today - good performance or not.

2-2 draw for Blyth at home to Chester, yesterday.

I still maintain that the lad's not fully fit and he's putting a dampner on his game - same as Gordon.

Isak was 'just' offside, IMO. It was the right call, unforutnately.
