Got a right Beadle hand going on there.

Dunno why I find this picture so amusing http://4c2lgc59e181vuma1n9bmo1c.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/assets/dwight-gayle-handball-reading-newcastle-united-nufc-650x400.jpg

Isn't Hanley a highly rated Championship player?! Feels like the general attitude towards him on here is that he's poor/can't be trusted. Surely we're not writing a player off because of he looks like a neanderthal?

Yep, there's a difference between posters passing hyperbolic early judgement of a player coming from overseas and having a strong opinion on a regular player from our division that will have been seen fairly frequently.

Bassong. Did Distin ever play CB for us or just left back? If so, him as well.

Quite amusing that all of our scorers are new signings given the comments over the course of these first three games.

Feels like for the entire first half of that season we were boring/average

Gayle again.

Yay.

Conceding too many corners.

So will the free kick Colback is going to give away go unpunished or not?

Except he can't defend. Well no, but if you have to categorise him in any way it's going to be defensive/containment.

I just don't trust these players to keep the door shut

Fucking hell Colback about to come on as well. All out defend!

Gayyyyyle!!!

He is going through a worryingly long spell of poor form.

Hayden not good enough, get rid.

It's nerves IMO. A mixture of players suffering relegation and new players coming in with some of them now playing to much higher expectation than they've ever experienced before. It's going to be a slow start but I just hope they'll settle and the confidence won't remain so brittle.

Aye, I remember you're slating of him at every opportunity prior to that point like it was yesterday Lesson learnt. To be fair he did pretty much just turn on God mode out of nowhere when he started scoring

So we're doing our usual then.

Aye, I remember you're slating of him at every opportunity prior to that point like it was yesterday

We need to push for a third now, don't sit back.

Get in!

First attempt please, Dwight.

So you're telling me we looked much better when we had our two best players on the pitch? Don't believe it.
