Fat Sham reckons the mackems need 6 wins from their last 13 games.

Looks like we are only going to use him if we are desperate. What a signing!

Agree 100% with that, but as we are right now, him coming in even if we get 5-6 games out of him before his next injury its not the worst thing in the world. Paying Taylor something the region of £25k/week (£1.3m a year) to play 10 games a season. Would rather we paid somebody equally as good that money, and he play regularly.

3-1 win and all is OK again...

To be fair to Misstrovic, you cant expect somebody so young who is paid well to score goals, to score goals. Its not been done before. Great Striker.

What are people basing their positivity on? After 24 games (14 to go) we: have won 5 have 19 pts conceded 44 (behind only mackems and Norwich) been beaten by Swansea, Watford, scumderland, Palace, West Brom Don't have anybody who can score Have a manager without a clue

At least 8 or 9, we were discussing it after his latest 'nearly scored' moment.

That Misstrovic was good again tonight, very unlucky with his chance.

Norwich are fucked, and the mackems will find some way of getting out of it (including 3 points against us). That leaves us....

Surely as bad a performance as we've seen all season. No tactics, no effort, mistakes, terrible individual performances. Unfortunately our one chance fell to the guy we pay to put our chances away. Shite.

Cant see how we'll get out of it after tonight, there was just no fight or effort that you would expect from a relegation battling team. Saying we are no good away from home, just isn't an excuse any more. Another game gone, and our PPG ratio goes up. Mackems will beat us in the derby, they'll stay up, we'll go down.

They should have won tonight, but as we know, if you can't put the ball in the net.... The new midfielder looks a right wanker.

2 from Norwich, Nufc and mackems to join Villa then... Chance Swansea might get dragged back into it, but Bournemouth look safe thanks to Afobe. I think Norwich are fucked and the tyne/wear derby will decide who joins them. Lets hope after 4 seasons of them pissing on us with ease, and us saving them from relegation at least twice, that we finally hammer a nail into the relegation coffin this time around.

All depends on this new striker, if he knows where the back of the net is then its a 8 or 9 out of 10. If he doesn't, then its a 4. Fair enough Shelvey and Townsend could be good signings, but we need a goal scorer. Hopefully we have one.

Thought his comments were spot on when he left, and don't blame him for leaving our wreck of a club to play for Liverpool and gets a winners medal. Still, makes him fucking desperate if he wants to come back. Pleased its not happening.

So, Everton: 1 win in their last 10 PL games (obviously against us at SJP) 3 wins out of 12 at home in the PL this season Worst home defensive record in the PL (22 conceded in 12 games) 1 clean sheet from 12 PL home matches this season. This is a nailed on Everton victory.

well offside mind

Would rather have him than Berahino, Saivet and Townsend combined. Best striker since Shearer? well, him or Demba Ba for sure.

Just heard some of the Harper interview, continues to build himself up as some sort of footballing great "ive got unfinished business" "hardcore Newcastle fans have said 'its great to see you back'" Back to what? What unfinished business? playing reserve football? Full of shite.

Really cant help but think this will be another unsuccessful toon transfer, at a pretty high fee. Just hope he hits the ground running and impresses early on, helping us survive.

Surely that's bull shit

Maybes its my not-HD picture, but im finding it hard to work out which team is which with these 2 strips on display

Need to get a striker like Remy and give him a massive bonus for every goal he scores. If not, we are fucked.

That will be a good thing, as it will move Ashley closer to the exit door. He'd be loathed to put any of his own cash in, once the parachute payments stop. Charnley and McClaren will both keep their jobs too. Wont be good if we get relegated into oblivion though

We'll struggle in the Championship too
