Dybala has been piss poor here. Will probably go and score or assist now I've posted that though.

What a goal for Crotone.

Napoli equalised just before half time, didn't even notice.

Napoli losing at home to Udinese. Juve winning at Crotone. Shame that if it ends those scorelines, be a bit crap if the game between them on Sunday night is a bit of a dead rubber.

what the hell

I assume it's scheduled for the week after FA Cup 3rd round weekend? Should just have a midweek game in August to make up for it. This for me is mainly because I hate the fact that you play 3 or 4 games in August before an international break, and then again in September and October. The start of a season is very stop-start.

Would love to know about their source. They had no idea that allowing 15,000 Celtic fans to a friendly would result in farce but they’re all over this for some reason. How in any way could any of our lot have bought tickets for an away end that sold out to Wolves season ticket holders? The whole thing and Sky's pushing of it has been bizarre. Local press need to look into it as it's just utter lies.

Nah, they're the same level of tinpot-ness for me. Grateful that they're never even contemplated at SJP.

He and Gabbiadini were their best players in the draw down at St. Mary's. No idea what's happened to him. They paid circa £17m for him in the summer. If they go down they'd probably want to recoup that but I've always had a feeling he may go for about ≥£13m.

Stoke have to win 3 of their last 4, like. Burnley at home for them next, Liverpool away is a write off, then Palace at home and then Swansea away.

I remember that Stoke game, was class viewing. Hughes fewmin, Ben Arfa taking the piss. He was then dropped the game after. Fucking Pardew, man.

In the PL, aye. Last player to be sent off against us was January 2014 away at Norwich. Remy was sent off as well which kind of negates it. Last time we had a numerical advantage in the PL was Stoke at home on Boxing Day 2013 when they had 2 sent off.

Really liked Lemina from Southampton in the first half of the season. Second half he's gone to shite it seems.

They claimed he failed at Napoli? Really? Napoli fans still hold him in high regard, won 2 cups in 2 seasons and signed a lot of the players who've given Juve a run for their money for the scudetto this season.

Good shout. We need a CB; if Lascelles is injured or suspended, defensively we're fucked.

That touch from Diouf, so bad

Yep. Fucking Ashley though, although I hate reading/spreading pessimism in times like this when the team is playing so well, Robster is right when he says Ashley isn't suddenly going to change.

The clubs, certainly not in terms of success, but in terms of fans and what the people are like, Liverpool and Newcastle are similar. Similar political attitudes, both cities revolve around football, Keegan, Rafa. I can totally see why they've kind words to say about us and I don't mind them, which is why I absolutely despise it when hearing "sign on" or chants about stereos being stolen when we're at Anfield.

Brilliant result, great performance. They looked dangerous on the break in the first half but offered nothing second. Was confident in the team to not concede late on, what a feeling that is to have in a Newcastle side for a change. Not only are we getting the results, but we're looking a really decent side. Just imagine what Rafa could do with a bit of money, man. Glad to see you enjoyed it Ameritoon.
