Too right. Time for the reasonable and nice majority to put aside local banter and stand together. Too many extremists conflate nice with soft. Can be a big mistake.

Bruno making positive noises, in post-match interview, about being back with Newcastle.

Sanusi off for Turner-Cooke. Hurt his knee (welcome to the first team!)

Collar (lack of on back) looks a bit odd on third kit.

Harrison on for Joe. Lewis (confusingly) for Hall.

But if unnecessary radge from big Joe.

Lovely ball in from them again. And then Miggy’s blushes…. Both saved by offside.

Yep, corrected it thought it was Miley walking on.

Pope Burn Krafth Hall Ashby Longstaff Joelinton Murphy Almiron Sanusi Parkinson So losing this game 😂

Isak off but probs planned.🤞

Big Joe looks very heavy legged. Heat? Training? Definite difference in normal energy levels with him and with Tino. Both looked like they were running through treacle trying to get back at points.

Fairly even on stats 52-48% possession, and 8 shots (4 on) to 6 (2 on) in their favour. They definitely looked more threatening/coordinated in attack to me though.

Good work out for the lads. A few looking a bit ring rusty.

Would have loved to see him in these games. Invaluable prep missed.

Barnes fluffing again.

They just seem much more match sharp. We’ve created enough opportunities around the box just a touch here and there a bit off.

It’s been coming.

Beautiful through pass from Barnes, Miggy just off. Caught them with that central pass a few times now.

Moving alright. Seemed sore for a while after (left shoulder).

Good test this. Haven’t worked out why, but cutting out our midfield very successfully.

Barnes just not quite at it. Hopefully something will come off for him soon.

😂 loved the half volley with his sock/no boot. Whoops! Wrong thread.

Looks sore but carrying on.

Isak shoulder injury, from collision with keeper.

Did the right thing I think if look at the slomo. Keeper’s playing a blinder.
