How can you be sure?

Man City is a free hit, I’d much rather we have a go, rather then sit back and watch them steamroller us (as usual)

Does anyone remember when ruud gulllit reckoned they nufc are cursed? Well - it makes you wonder. The 5 cup finals we’ve reached and lost in my lifetime - we’ve played Man United x2, Liverpool, Arsenal and Man City. Cup draws this season have been really bad. Typical Newcastle.

He did. Was a good and under-rated keeper.

Yup - shades of Bramble tonight - we all know that he has a bad rick in him.

Clear MoM tonight. Really pleased for him.

Another good shift tonight and playing in a position that whilst he can play it, it's not his favorite.. AG is only gonna improve, IMO. Got a real player on our hands.

There has to be room in 25man squad, for an understudy (youngish) striker. Us only having Isak and Wilson given their injury record is asking for bother.

The lad hasn't been right since he came back from his inury. Must be sweating on his place, once everyone is fit and available.

Playing when unfit, IMO - due to necessity.

Must admit - I feared the worst when it went to pens (given our pens record), but Dubs pulls us from the clarts, as he did all game. Think him on Gordon will be the only one's to emerge with credit in the bank. Fair play to Blackburn, who pushed us all the way. *relieved*

Blackburn well worth being level. A marginally better second half from us, but still - not good enough. A lack of quality and intensity. Is there a rabbit off somewhere in the squad, given the last few weeks? Smodzics looks a real handful, btw.

It's scrappy at best. Midfield still doesn't look right, but then again - Willock will take time to get match fitness. Good save Dubs.

He also said horrific things about Glenn Roeder, when he was having cancer treatment (or it may have been after) Bloke is a wankpuffin,

Jammy scousers - of course.

Ruled out! Klopp will be going off it.

Could be ruled out by VAR - ref been called over.

Blyth came back from 2-0 down to finish 2-2 at home to Boston. 10man North Shields lost 2-1 at home to Penrith.

Still been men against boys and I wonder if we’ve had one eye on the Blackburn game, tonight. The only positive has been minutes for Willock, an hour for isak and hopefully no injuries. Oh - great header from Little Joe! ?

It’s men against boys (literally in Miley’s case) We have no physicality in midfield so they are cutting through us at will. So many seem to be playing well within themselves - no disrespect to arsenal.

TNT not bothering to get a Newcastle rep, so we get bloody Keown and Rio Ferdinand.

I'll be gutted if Platten has sold the club to some bloody shyster/chancer.

Was sold for £1? That's not a bit worrying - at all.

He must have had some capital to buy the club. I maybe's can't see the whole lot going for less than £250k? Will see what's said in the meeting when it comes out, later.

Well, not many of us Spartans followers saw this coming! Anyone know much about the new owner - Irfan Liaquat? Piece says he's a local lad (to Tyneside)
