We've never been behind at half time at home, and only conceded 7 goals in 9 home games (joint 2nd best home defence in league). That is impressive tbf. Quality of football isn't free-flowing, but we're clearly hard to beat at home.

Glad he is back.

This board is very negative tbf.

Was a canny assist tbf. I can't see him scoring much at all, but he does work hard and it will get a few assists for sure.

Buzzing for the lad

Didn't expect to be 10 points clear before Christmas like.

Insane to compare the home records after 9 matches like. Last season: 2 wins 7 losses This season: 4 wins, 4 draws, 1 loss Makes no sense

1 loss from 9 at home - pretty solid tbf.

Get in there! Massive 3 points.

Started quite well but faded.

Not bad so far

Lejeune get in!

that's the difference between elite managers and PFM type garbage, guys like rafa will improve everything across the board...obviously a handful will not take to methods or personalities and in the main top managers will improve most of the players and performances average PFM's like bruce will improve a handful if they're lucky, some will stay about the same if they're lucky and others will collapse into oblivion i'd say we've seen improvement from shelvey so far, but i've yet to entirely buy into that, but beyond i'd say what's been noticeable is he's destroyed almiron is in the process of destroying joelinton looks like destroying sean longstaff thrown Ki in the bin completely people like hayden, clark, fede have done well under him but i'm not sure you could class any as an improvement on where they were under rafa Almiron and Longstaff - fair comments. Joelinton just looks gash - not sure you can blame Bruce for that. I disagree about Joelinton. I personally won't judge him until Bruce sorts the system or we get another manager that gets him chances nearer goal and he starts missing them. Carroll, with all his experience, looks equally shit standing up on his own fighting for hoofs against 2-3 defenders. But let's judge a 23 year old new to the country as we always do. Pepe at Arsenal presumably shit and needs binning as well. 1 goal in 17 though. I mean it's pretty terrible for a striker. He played fairly well against Spurs, but apart from that he's done fuck all really.

Absolutely raging at this. How dare he say that? Disgusting.

Cracking appointment tbf. Cunts.

If they don't go on a 3-4 game winning streak soon, they really are fucked and won't be promoted.

Newcastle are yet to trail at half-time at home this league campaign (HT: W1, D7). The last five head to heads have witnessed under 2.5 goals. The last three that produced a winner all ended 1-0.

Sauce?

Palace have loads of defensive injuries, which would be good if we had the attacking quality to take advantage of

Two of the lowest scorers in the league. 0-0 prediction.

That's the spirit

Class draw, every game is interesting tbh.

Blunderlend

P17, W16, D1, L0, 49 points from 51? :lol: :lol:
