So was I. Sadly I'm not getting 80k+ a week to look devastated. If that's his best redeeming feature you"ve got to admit the game is up for him. He's dreadful. Ideally he just doesn't need to play again now Isak is back.

I like to think I can judge a player. Said from the off he's useless. Can't get away with planks like him. Sell him, Lewis and Murphy this month and add £5m to the transfer kitty.

Suddenly puts a lot of pressure on the Leicester match.

At this stage I'd give him a free. Get him off the wage bill and get him playing at a level he's more suited at.

Worrying that he looked slightly out his depth against a L1 side.

Still remember when people were outraged that he didn't get a squad number He's dreadful!

He's got no confidence whatsoever in front of goal. Tbh he just looks weak all round. The likes of Longstaff could have a future here as a sqaud player but the likes of Murphy and Lewis are even miles short of that.

He's terrible. Always thought that. Nowhere near good enough.

Probably wouldn't be his wisest move if he did

Their last few home FA Cup crowds have all been 4 figures.

I got on at 10.03 for the Palace game (league) this season which is the earliest I've been on and there was masses of availability everywhere. We got 4 together in the Gallowgate no problem and there was still loads in the East Stand especially towards the Leazes and other popular areas. However for the Fulham game coming up I didn't get on till around 10.30 and there wasn't a great deal left other than L7. Just 1s and 2s dotted around so that 25 mins or so made a massive difference.

We hit 44k under Bobby Robson and for our first season back in the Prem under Benitez which was the maximum the club could sell. For Rafa's last season it had dropped to 38k as Ashley hiked the prices right up for people not on long term deals and subsequently a few crowds dipped below 50k. Bruce's appointment knocked a further 8k off. A friend of mine was 14,000 odd in the queue for the Chelsea match and was successful in getting a ticket.

31,000. Dropped down to 30k under Bruce and they released around 1k for sale this season.

Terrible subs, ref even worse than I expected him to be.

Joelinton should be in there with ASM out wide.

Rumoured to have had sex with a dog and made a vile joke about disabled people. The pair of them are wrong 'uns.

These refs, the Madeley brothers have always hated NUFC. Proper wrong 'uns. Still remember the disgraceful Coloccini decision at sunderland. We'll get nowt off him today. I think one of them was accused of having sex with an animal, a dog I think.

Neville and Carracher both commented that Spurs v Arsenal last season was the best atmosphere they'd experienced. Maybe its the fact that season tickets coat £2k thus pricing out many traditional fans that's the real atmosphere killer. Also got to say the atmosphere at the first few derbies we played at the SoL was absolutely electric and better than anything at Roker Park. The current design of SJP makes creating an atmosphere more difficult. There's no denying that.

He's only asking about supoorters who will be in Newcastle on a matchday who maybe can't get a ticket but still want to watch the match in the town where they might be ffs.

That was started when we played Man Utd at the Millenium Stadium. They were battering us yet we were making all the noise whereas they were just stood there. 35,000 NUFC fans started belting it out. Should have been a one off moment but then other clubs started copying us and it's carried on ever since. Agree it's shite now.

They need to ask how many they are giving away then because even with the 10k season ticket giveaway our ticket revenue was still 3 times greater than theirs!

Having to beat 5 Premier League clubs to win it could have been easier mind, but getting home draws has been massive I agree.

Home draw v a weaker team than we are. I'll take that!

Great game that but Sky totally over analyse games to the point where it becomes extremely boring listening to them mind.

Would be perfect but I don't think we're that lucky! I think we draw one of the big 2 left in tonight. In saying that I'm confident whoever we get.
