I'm getting the impression we won't be considered as having been tested until we lose. If we don't lose to Man City we won't have been tested. If we then don't lose to Man U, Chelsea will be the 'real' test. To be fair, it didn't take long for Ba to pay back his transfer fee of £0.00.

To be fair to Best, he got injured during the game but played on long before he was subbed. Did someone stand on his foot or something? Did it show on TV what happened to him? He went down for a while. When he got back up he was limping for a while. Ba had the ball on the right wing and Best was limping to try to get in the box. Hopefully he'll be fit soon.

Long may Lawro continue to predict that we will lose. It's become a lucky omen for us.

I got my season ticket in the post today. Do all season ticket holders get club membership for free? The season ticket card says "Official Membership". Is that the same as this: - http://www.nufc.co.uk/page/Members/ClubMembers http://www.nufc.co.uk/page/Members/Benefits

It amused me to see our players using the towel to dry the ball for throws. It really amused me when Pulis was moaning about it when we kept doing it all the way through including added time. Ever heard of irony Tony? Where's that towel? We want to dry the ball. Problem Stoke?

Won have you Blackburn?

Midfielders and Forwards who scored at least one goal each + Defenders and a Goalkeeper who kept a clean sheet = Garth Crooks' team of the week

This Thursday's edition of BBC Radio Newcastle's Total Sport show will devote an hour of airtime to a Q & A session with Newcastle boss Alan Pardew. Questions can be submitted online here now and from the same link you'll find details of how to contact the show live on Thursday via telephone and text message. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/newcastle_united/9391290.stm

Nope. Ferguson, Inman and Folan are the three to hate now. Where are you getting these quotes from if I may ask? http://www.nufc.co.uk/page/Match/Report/ReservesReport/0,,10278~2486376,00.html

I'm assuming it would be a deal where there is an agreement between NUFC and Sochaux that NUFC will pay the agreed amount for Maiga after he returns from the ANC and passes a medical.

Why do some fans always feel the need to run our players down? Give the guy a chance.

Pardew is in the BBC Radio Newcastle studio on Thursday. I assume it will be from 5.30pm. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00kspqx

I really don't know why Colo passed that ball to Cabaye. Cabaye was marked by two players. Ben Arfa dropped us in the shit by trying to walk through 3 Tottenham players and then losing the ball. Obertan is probably better as a sub rather than a starter. Give Marv a go on the right. If it doesn't work then bring Obertan on. Fantastic goal by Shola! Great spirit to come back twice. The second half was like a basketball game, both teams running at each other. Great that Ba keeps scoring. I'm not looking forward to January when the African cup of nations is on. Tiote and Ba missing for a month will be a big miss.

He wasn't technically a purchase. He was free (excluding agents fees, signing fee, etc).

Do we even know it's true? I take anything Wraith says with a large pinch of bullshit.

It's a bit harsh to blame Pardew for negative tactics in the second half. I can remember goal scoring chances for Ba, Best and Obertan in the second half. It's hardly Pardew's fault they missed them.

When he's played in the Carling Cup he hasn't been very good at all. He's done well in two reserve games though. He's been out for more than a year to be fair.

You can't assume Ben Arfa and Marveaux would have walked on and waltzed through the Wolves defence. Maybe Pardew didn't think they were physical enough? I'm sure he'll be honest enough to say we had a poor second half. We were lucky mind. We couldn't hold on to the ball at all in most of the second half. Some wasteful shots by Ba when he was well placed too. Over the moon with the 3 points. It's nice for us not to have the s*** luck for once. Did we get awarded many free kicks? I seem to recall Wolves getting loads but we got none.

These reports aren't as harsh on Elliot: - http://www.nufc.com/ http://www.nufc.co.uk/page/Match/Report/ReservesReport/0,,10278~2466098,00.html

I take it Santon and the rest of our defence have a swashbuckling style of defending (i.e. all out attack). It looks like the "We'll score more goals than you" game plan going by the amount of goals!

Bruce is just getting his teams usual 3 month slump out the way at the start of the season instead of in the middle for once.
