The sort of result you just need to get over the line after the cup final. Unconventional and nervy but just about deserved. A steely performance where a few players had yo be carried a bit, but we got there. Pope: 6.5 Trippier: 8 Schär: 6.5 Burn: 7 Livramento: 8 Bruno: 6 Tonali: 9 Joelinton: 6 Murphy: 6 Isak: 6.5 Wilson: 6 Barnes: 7.5 Willock: 7

Please don't fuck this up Newcastle

Could be better could be worse, happy with the scoreline. Some look energised by the final, others look shagged. Just really hope we don't take our foot off the pedal and that Isak and Joelinton can find some energy.
-
None that I've been able to find, nah. I definitely ordered it though.
-
Nah, still not here. Into the 6th week now, so I doubt it's coming.

As opposed to us who are largely giving them money and by extension their state. I get that the distinction is that we're not overtly promoting Saudi while supporting Newcastle, I just don't think that distinction is big enough for anyone to be getting on their high horse about Adam P. Based on what happened when the takeover happened, I'd hazard a guess that the hard line people claim they have would soften significantly if it meant improving their material interests.

We were a miles better side than this Forest one. It blows my mind that more teams haven't figured them out in the way that Howe has. -
Rafa Benitez net spend: ~£3.65m Steve Bruce net spend: ~£125m I'm not a mathematician so can someone please help me work out who did better with the resources they had?

Think Anelka was right at the end, but yeah Kevin Davies and Nolan were grim, although Okocha, Djorkaeff, and Campo made them quite watchable. Man United winning the league in Fergie's last season comes to mind, maybe Spurs finishing 4th under Conte.
-
Errrr...
-
Forest have got me wondering, what's the worst but most successful team you've seen in the league?
-
The amount of space Man United had and failed to do anything with down their left side was unbelievable.
-
Forest can't keep getting away with this man, I can't stand the way they play.
-
Just had a quick neb and he's basically doing OSINT
-
Love him so much that I'm listening to a-ha deep cuts.
-
Yeah, it's the injury record that's the issue, but even then it's still a step up from Wilson on that front. I still hold on to the hope that Howe can get the DCL we saw under Ancelotti out of him as well. Still worth a punt on a free imo. Actually hold on, fuck me, I think his injury record might now actually be worse than Wilson's.
-
There are very few things that surprise me anymore, but then someone comes along and posts something like that and you realise there are depths you still weren't aware of.
-
Still think it'll end up being DCL
-
I mean we are like, minus the dickheads, nothing was going to stop us supporting Newcastle and we all want to have our cake and eat it. I just don't think there's really that much difference between the half-arsed fairytale Adam P's telling himself vs what we're doing, but each to their own and all that.
