Big Geordie

Smith will miss just one game (Blackpool) for 2 yellow cards.

Over the moon we won. I didn't think we played that badly - we looked really solid in midfield and at the back - didn't allow Cardiff any time or space at all. 27 years since we had 5 clean sheets in a row, apparently. Well done lads.

Has anyone got a link to that Danny Dyer skit on You Tube, that takes the mick out of Sunderland amongst other things?

Will the 'Soul Crew' be in attendance tomorrow? Take care, for anyone who is heading down.

Where does this leave both Irish teams in terms of qualification?

Hope he is OK and I wish him a speedy recovery. It 'sounds' a bad one.

Surely they are only paid decently if they manage to do their jobs, i.e. sell the club? Not doing a good job of it then - this has been going on for a year now. Somethings not right, somewhere.

Not good news. Has this club actually ever been up for sale - really? Ashley has mucked us all about and still is. Shows he has nothing but contempt for us ultimately. I'm surprised Seymour Pierce are still in bed with him over this - they must be charging him a bloody fortune.

Probably not too far from the actual truth.

I thought Nolan did well tonight - supported Ranger and got forward plenty. Could still do with losing some weight though, IMO.

Fellas - you need to remember that Derek Llambias is a liar and a bare faced one at that. Remember his comments from a couple of months ago? "There have been more than two bids of £100million to buy Newcastle United" He's a prick.

Good win tonight and a great goal. Was impressed by the hold up play of Ranger. If the lad keeps working hard and keeps his head down, we 'could' have a player on our hands here.

I remember that one. Didn't Lineker get a couple? Leicester for me brings back memories of 89/90 when we were 4-2 down to them with 13mins to go. Enter Mick Quinn, John Gallagher and Mark McGhee who got the winner in the last minute.

This. Unless someone else is coming in soon - and sharpish hopefully.

Graham Roberts. Ex Spurs and Rangers Oh aye. Forgot about him - says it all really!

No way. Who is this Roberts bloke, btw? What is it about the state of NUFC that drags mentalists to associate themselves along with it in the name of free publicity?

If we are to play Ranger, then the kid needs support up front. I'd be tempted to put Smith up there for the young'un to play off. That would leave Guthrie and Nolan in the middle. Problem is left midfield - Lua-Lua to replace Jonas?

Hughton said it would happen, and it has. We need bodies in now - end of.

I thought it was a poorly written piece when I read it yesterday - full of spite. However it is also a backhanded compliment to the way we've started our season. And long may our good form continue.

Aye.

Danny Simpson and Kadar.

Football violence is nout new. There was a riot at St James between us and the mackems in the early 1900's. Kicked off big style that day too - remember reading about it in one of the toon history books. The authorities will always have bother eradicating this kind of thing - banning orders are one answer, but it won't stop the rubbish that goes on outside of grounds.

Minty man , what are ye dein why does any bloke feel the need to run on to a pitch to look hard, then skip around What a fat nonce.

I've answered disagree. You'll always get knackers at football games, it's a sad fact.
