wtf ben arfa

Agree with your points and Gosling does need game time as does Ben Arfa and will likely happen in the coming weeks .

many more teams will concede more than us in one game as we all know by now

oh well nice to get a goal to soften the blow

bit of pride restored well done

Floodgates will open second half imho

Raylor has made 2 huge mistakes so convenient time for Santon 2 take over at lb

Raylor i hope ,needless handball

stupid boy raylor

omg should have scored

I know him from a few years ago as he came on a stag do @ Ipswich in the 80's and we went to the match in togas ,he is good mates with one of mine who might have been at one of his partys .

A point will be like a victory imho ,just hope they do us proud.

Cannot sign in to change my line up atm what a joke

Initially when the news broke i thought what a wanker for doing that then i thought means nothing to me as it will always be St James' Park to all of us and nowt else ,slowly stripping away the past but the history remains .Most self respecting journalist and media types will hopefully call it by its rightful name unless by contractual obligations they have to call it by its new name.

Talking to himself like I said that earlier it wont hurt him in the slightest as he gained no money from it being called St James' park anyway so its win for him either way .

Calm down all ,i know this is touchy subject but this ground will always be known as St James' Park too everyone but the owner and the potential new sponsor and thats far from being a given in this moment in time with the worlds economy going tits up , its Sports Direct for the short term and tbh cannot see it being anything different anytime soon .The difference with us is that we dont have a new ground like a few other clubs and a sponsor name to go with it but an iconic identity to us and many others so you can change the name but not that we will call it by its new one .

It's only because we're being starved and drip fed these appearances. We're getting to a point where his lack of apparent sharpness is becoming a self fulfilling prophecy. It's time he started and properly took part in games. Pardew would have to change a winning team and too be fair to him he cannot ,Santon cost 5 million and sits on the bench and he will be inwardly pissed off too but injuries will come and they will both get there chances and its up to them to take them and Pardew will have to put Ben Arfa in somewhere .

awful atm just chasing the ball

much better last few mins offensively

great stuff Gosling and Simpson

oh dear 3 injuries now including Tiote

ffs

could be a game changer

jesus needed that to stay out

Fantastic goal
