This. We really need to do this. It'd fucking kill him!

That's f***ing ridiculous. Made 1 save that my mother could have made in the first half, and grabbed a rebound off the post whilst lying flat on his back. And that, by my reckoning, was that. Saved the one on on with Yakabu too, i love to see his name there, i guess its mostly because the other keepers didn't do much as well this week. Can't remember that one even though I watched the whole game. Alcohol.

Likewise. Would love to move there one day.

Every time Blackburn play I hope they lose. I really want him to just disappear up his own arse and into obscurity.

For me this is ideal for Krul. He'll get the opportunity he's been craving and it's now in his hands if he takes it or not. I'm quite excited to see how he does, I think he'll be up for it.

I'd be perfectly happy with 10 points from the next 5 games, think that's what we should be aiming for tbf. That said, I'd settle for a few less if we smash the unwashed.

Thought Tiote looked decent, but he hasn't got great vision and won't be pinging 50 yard crossfield balls about. That said, he played to his strengths and kept it simple, didn't do a lot wrong all game and a massive step up from Smith.

Just seen the replays, and although it's a choppy internet feed that looked like an absolute stonewall penalty on Nolan.

Thought they were going to nick a point at the end there but excellent overall performance and what a result!

The wife was asleep on the settee so I was trying to keep relatively quiet but when that goal went in I was yelling like an idiot.

Fuck me, that was stunning.

After a year in exile, I'm heading back up north for the Blackpool game. Can I pay cash and get a ticket on the gate on the day? Looking on nufc.co.uk there's nothing on sale for level 7, is that because they're reserved for match day sale? I've heard that there's restrictions on access to the Leazes corner / singing section too, anyone shed any light on that? Cheers.

Was once 25 mins late and really struggled to get in. There's normally one open somewhere though, like others have said. Just be persistent.

I still clinged to hope long after that happened for me. The day it really hits home is when people younger than you start retiring!

Well it's down to the company I work for so it's somewhat out of my hands. I'll get asked a preference but that's likely to be ignored. St Mirren a good shout though. Playing in black and white and unlikely to ever win anything, it'll be like being back in Newcastle again!

Hmm, seems you're right about that. Had to check as I could have sworn I'd seen terracing on the local news and the Football League Show for home games. Must have been away matches or else I'd been drinking too much. Will be gone from here in around 6 months anyway, not long enough to form any kind of attachment to another club even if I tried. My next move will be permanant and will be to either Southampton or Glasgow both of which present their own problems. If I moved to Southampton there's no way on earth I could go and cheer a team on in red and white stripes, whilst Glasgow football is way too sectarian for my athiest soul. Might have to pop along to Dean Court after all, while watching another team is still an option.

Get yourself along to Dean Court. AFCB could always do with the extra support with their constant money woes. Play some decent stuff under Eddie Howe too by all reports. I've followed their recent relative success in the papers and on the news and have considered getting myself along, but I've never been one of those people who have a second club or anything like that. Might still pop along one day just for the crack and to stand on a terrace again, been donkey's years since I did that.

Moved down to Bournemouth last year, so watching Newcastle live has been somewhat of a rarity since then. But I'm heading north next week and will be taking in the Blackpool match and hopefuly Ben Arfa's debut, can hardly wait.

Wigan West Ham Blackpool Can't see beyond them tbh. Blackpool came up with poor prospects whilst Wigan and West Ham are 2 shocking teams.

That's pretty special, that is. Maybe they're expecting him to get there by train?

Starting to allow myself the possibility that I may begin to think about getting excited.

Has barely improved in all his time with us. That said, I bare him no ill will, it's not his fault he's not good enough. IMO he's a top Championship striker / lower PL striker. He can just about do a job in the PL, will score goals but will never threaten to get a goal every other game or anything daft like that. We need better, but I'm glad we're not relying on him too much at the moment. The horrifying thing is he'll be due a testimonial soon.

When he inevitably cuts inside he'll run out the pitch... I suspect he cuts inside now because he's a right footed player who is playing on the left. You killed humour. Sorry, I've had a long and tiring day. That F5 button doesn't press itself you know.
