Won't clubs just insert WWE style 'no compete' clauses? I'm sure Chelsea will find a way to get around it.

Their ultras walking through the town making loads of noise probably helped us as well. Properly got everyone going before they were anywhere near the ground.

Aye. I'm in Gateshead and I'd have to get through the town traffic and then battle other fans through Gosforth or wherever it is. I'd probably be fine doing it a few times but after the 10th or so I'd just be wishing I was in the house or down my local watching on IPTV. I can just imagine the club not feeling like Newcastle United in this scenario.

I've got a season ticket.

Think I'd struggle to maintain interest travelling to a ground at the racecourse 19 times a season like.

Bring him back to officially open it

That would be a nightmare logistically. Shocking transport links, few parking spaces, no amenities nearby other than the Fog on the Tyne and McDonald's. Gateshead struggle with 1.5k, you'd have to do a lot more than simply spruce up the GIS.

Same, angry looking fucker isn't he

Bet he's earning 5 times what he did when he was at NUFC

You'll never be able to see it unless you're super close up, I really don't see the point

Derby are significantly bigger than Wimbledon as well...

Not sure where this narrative that we didn't create chances is coming from.

James Perch player / manager

And so the cycle continues

Southampton will do incredibly well to get 25 points this season

Wow, Semenyo...

Good move that

He was fine when he was here

My only slight concern is that it's taken us 6 games and an elite opponent to finally look like we're bothering our arses. Hopefully we can keep this up but we cannot pick and choose when to give our all like this. We must be better against shite like Southampton, Fulham and Wolves otherwise those narrow wins will turn into more draws/losses. Not sure how we can be so poor against Fulham one week and then put in one of our best performances in 12 months the next week. Hopefully we've turned a corner, we've almost got the perfect game in the league next to find out.

Yep, the double punishment thing is one of the few times the rule makers have actually applied some common sense.

Demba was one of those underrated for no reason types. He was very, very good and should never have had to waste time with shite like us and West Ham. Bit like Berbatov dicking about with mid table Spurs or Van Der Sar at Fulham. Stop being fannies and get yourself in the CL

Had a ST there for Rafa's 3 seasons, decent view but was a little on the quiet side. Nearly came to blows with an old cunt who called me out for leaving early one game.

Can confirm, Gallowgate was good on Saturday, especially for an early KO.
