We look fine because of the defensive structure, wingers tucking in, the AMC dropping back in to midfield in the defensive phase and fullback who are diligent rather than spectacular take this away and we would be a mess.

Shelvey had no reason to do they whatsoever either which must throw salt in the wounds. Wish we could get rid of Voldemort we can't afford to be playing with 10 men or have one of our better players suspended multiple times a season.

Some people loathe tactical football and dislike rafas approach to the game. This will manifest itself greatly when we go on a bad run and the what if merchants come out. I'm one of those a fair bit, yet today i was quite encouraged. Funny old game like. Given our budget and individual quality i think we would struggle badly if we went all out attack. I wouldn't have anyone else managing us personally.

Because it was unprovoked when the game wasn't even in progress; it was utterly moronic.

Wound up just after half time when he had nothing to be angry about. Don't want to see this joke pull on our shirt again.

Newcastle United midfielder Jack Colback set to leave after training ground row with boss Rafa Benitez Jack Colback has almost certainly played his last game for Newcastle United The former Sunderland midfielder refused to take part in a training session Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez has since told the player to train alone Jack Colback has almost certainly played his last game for Newcastle United after a training ground row which has seen him banished from the first-team set-up. Sportsmail understands that the former Sunderland midfielder was already training away from the main group earlier this week when, after one player picked up a knock, he was called to join in. Colback, however, is thought to have refused to take part and this has infuriated manager Rafa Benitez, who has since told the player to train alone. The 27-year-old reported to the club’s training ground on Friday afternoon - after the senior session had finished - and was forced to work by himself. Colback will be left out of Benitez's 25-man Premier League squad and the Magpies have already offered him to other clubs, although his £40,000-per-week wages are thought to be a stumbling block. Colback began his career with the Black Cats, but joined Newcastle on a free transfer in 2014 and has since played 102 games for the club This won't go down well, but anyway........... Rafa doesn't have the greatest reputation when it comes to tact and sensitivity when dealing with players. Whatever your opinion of Colback's ability, it does look like he was humiliated here. Who cares? He's crap and should be shown the door. His celebration against us wasn't tactful either.

Cheers bimpy!

Can someone paste the story from the mail please?

No such thing as wages to turn over In relation to any hard and fast rules, Deloitte suggest less than 70% is sufficient but as we have no salary cap In the league the ratio is nothing but a mere benchmark. As usual it's just another excuse to hide the the chronic lack of investment and non existent ambition.

The club aren't even competent enough to stream this live, just goes to show how much they value our support.

FFP should be scraped anyway, all it achieves is maintenance of the status quo

He's the real deal man, dont be down on it at all he's absolutely clinical.

Surprised we didn't try for that price considering we've been linked in the past. Would give us options at #10. Guess Montpellier may want a higher price from us Or he was only ever a Carr target and Rafa has no interest in him?

Mitro heads over from a dummett cross, he couldn't get over the ball should have done better for me.

Colbacks has been caught out a couple of times ball watching now.

Unlucky not to have equalised there

Don't be to alarmed folks this is our worse possible central midfield pairing

Other then that one issue, the clubs media are cracking imo. One issue? It's an issue every friendly game, we don't even broadcast our reserves. You tubers put more content out than our professional football club with a turnover of over 150 million.

The club needs to get its act together when it comes to the media side, the fact they aren't streaming this themselves and make no effort to broadcast these games is a joke.

Why don't we have much money is what I'm wondering, everyone is flush with cash apart from us?

:lol Martial isn't coming here man.

Expect to see shelvey play some games at amc this season

It's nonsense, Rafa wouldn't put up with that.

As simple as this for me, the lack of faith is quite astounding.
