Against the run of play but we'll take it! Now please hold on.

After spending £180m on new forwards in the summer it's especially grim.

Not the team I was hoping to see but let's see how it goes.

Different era now. When the club are charging an average of £60 for an adult ticket you are targeting customers ahead of supporters and a customer will be more demanding. Especially one that's spending a lot of money on a product. Aside from that when you're paying footballers £millions per year the very minimum requirement should be maximum effort. Not sure we've seen that lately.

If someone is an idiot I like to make sure that they know they are an idiot by telling them. Only takes 30 seconds.

Point me in the direction of this will you please. Going to get myself on there and give them a bit of well deserved shit.

Around 300 tickets currently on resale for this from fed up ST holders who can't be arsed!

Well now you've done it.

Fear for us a bit today. Putting aside our usual struggles against these, they are currently everything we aren't. Well coached, well drilled, no real superstars, just a very good collective group who all know their individual roles and how to execute a game plan. Only Man City and Arsenal have conceded less than they have. 3 clean sheets in their last 5. Would gladly take a draw just to stop the rot if nowt else.

They were given an unbelievable reception before the Sunderland match and the noise at the start was immense. Then they proceeded to fold like a deck of cards. Regardless of the atmosphere they have to show some heart today as a very minimum. Fans will react positively if they do that. If they don't show up again fans will let them know, and rightly so.

It'll be the same as any other time. If we start well and on the front foot foot, maybe even get a goal, the crowd will respond positively and get behind the players. If we hand Brighton the incentive from KO, play like we have been for quite a while now, and heaven forbid go a goal down, the crowd will respond negatively. Players need to show that they are up for it though.

He's made some bad decisions lately but surely he isn't lining Burn up against Minteh. Would be absolute suicide. I can't see it.

No but I've got access to it through other means.

Great pen. That's VAR working as it should.

Talk is cheap. Not bothering yourself to warm up properly in case you're called on and congratulating our opponents on beating us (in a game you contributed fuck all to) is even cheaper. Bloke is a cunt and the moral of the story is never sign a player who went on strike at his last club, as his moral compass is shot to shit. Got no interest in anything he has to say. Pound for pound our worst ever signing.

Why do some folk always have to go on like this man Some people want him to remain because they think he'll turn it around and he's the best man for the job and others just think he's probably taken us as far as he can and we are going backwards now. That's all there is to it. If everyone was in agreement about everything this place would be redundant. Just accept others will have a different opinion to yourself and don't get all arsey and upset when they don't.

Nah. Nobody is wanting us to lose the next 4 games just so that they can say they were right about him on a faceless Internet message board like. I'm not having that I think we're on the decline with him now (still 7 points shy of our 21/22 season total) and so far he's not showing me anything to say he's got the answers to turn things around but there's nowt I'd like more than 4/4 wins to finish the season to give us some hope for 26/27. If we did achieve that and as a result we finish 9th/10th/11th I'd expect him to start next season as our manager and everyone to get behind him. I just don't see it from what I'm watching.

Aye got to say that's my experience of Liverpool away/Scousers as well. Went there 7 times in the 1990s, Ronnie Whelans Testimonial, the 5 year anniversary of Hillsborough match, Steve Watsons winner in the LC, the 4-3s and a few more less eventful ones. All great occasions where we all mixed freely and drank and sang songs together and necer an issue. It seemed to start to change in the early 00s. It started becoming evident that the amount of Scousers in their fanbase was on the decline and the amount of tourists was massively on the up and it told in the pre/post match atmosphere and also the atmosphere inside Anfield which started to decline. Also seen bother there for the first time ever when they beat us 2-1 in the FA Cup. Been a couple of times this past decade and it's very much a changed place these days, and not for the better. Respect them for what they did at the weekend though.

Tbf he says whatever is necessary to get engagement. It's how he makes his living. It's a long time since he supported NUFC for the same reasons you and I do.

If you check back I said that I wasn't reading too much into a defeat against Arsenal. I thought we did ok. Certainly in comparison to the previous games.

We are still 7 points shy of our 21/22 season total.

I don't know of a single fan who doesn't want Eddie Howe to be successful with Newcastle United.

Aye you can tell that by how much better the atmosphere is in the ground compared to a few years ago and how much more positive this place is compared to then. Everyone is so happy watching utter rubbish.....
