Big Geordie

Great run by Issac!

Been a reasonable start.

A scrappy/nervy 2-1 win for us. Anything less, and the heat will get turned up more on Howe and the players by the media.

Time to shine, bonny lad

Rangers and Spurs finishes 1-1

Spurs level 1-1

Disappointing but not surprised. He may well have kicked his last ball for us.

3-4 Son

Spurs falling apart Pen to Chelsea

The years of Joe Royle, Andy Ritchie, etc.

Helluva win for Forest here, if they hang on. Nuno doing a terrific job.

Howe 'Defensively not strong enough - collective mistakes. Fought back well to 2-2 twice. Moments of good play in first half - conceed 4 goals and it's a negative performance in the end. Lack of consistency in 2nd half. Liverpool game took something out of the team - looked tired in certain positions. Players returning to fitness not 100% ready to play/ Gone from not scoring goals a few weeks ago, to not defending well. Confusing and needs to work out why',

Coming towards the end game for Eddie, I think - particularly if we are unable to bring in new faces in Jan, and he can't sort out the issues defensively and our consistency. Mid-table finish won't be good enough for PIF come May, This squad may well be broken up then and someone else brought in.

Kind of coming to the realization that Eddie has ran his race at Newcastle. A mid-table finish this season won't be acceptable to the owners. It all seems to have gone stale. Pressure is on him and the side to deliver in the cups now.

Nearly 5.

4-2 Game over

Tripps on for Hall.

Cups are going to be our best shot this season, IMO. League form just too inconsistent.

Wilson and Almiron getting ready to come on.

Gordon and Tonali on for Joelinton and Murphy.

Bugger 3--2 down

No - there was one v Charlton a few years later (am sure) Was with the ex at the time - wasn't for the Southampton game, but I do remember that one.

Was it not Charlton? Ex-wife dropped me off near St James and I had to ring her back to come and get me, when I heard it had been postponed! Forgot about that one.

Would think if it was going to, it would have been done by now.

Led the line really well tonight - great movement, pace, nous and what great finish for his goal. If he goes in the summer - got to be looking upwards of £100 million. He will take some replacing.
