Not played bad tbf but if we had 11 we'd be smashing these Clark has let the club and the fans down tonight. He should never wear the shirt again. We just can't seem to get a break!

We said not to start him! Ffs!

Nice to see they are playing their version of Clark in Hanley. Both teams disadvantaged at the back

Can only think he is not fit whatsoever. Must have gotten 4 on the bleep test or something

Full backs in the full back positions? What kind of fuckin sorcery is this you say!

#NUFC XI vs #NCFC: Dubravka, Manquillo, Schar, Clark, Lewis, Fraser, Shelvey, Willock, Saint-Maximin, Joelinton, Wilson #NEWNOR

I need a poo

Anyone else feel deja vu and tonight will be 6-2 to the toon. When we played Norwich back then pretty sure it was under very similar circumstances.

The takeover honeymoon has worn off for a lot of people that's what I'm getting at. People are just back to complaining doom and gloom like the club hasn't got anything going for it now

True people are quick to forget how bad things were 2 months ago. We had no hope and were going down, now we have hope but are probably going down anyway yet people are unhappy.

I would totally expect our owners to fail the owners and directors test after it changes following them purchasing our club. It is the whole purpose of changing them.

We just need to drop darlow and Clark we had them in the championship last time we got relegated and now they are starting every week in a relegation battle. Howe just needs to work out his best defence and I think we will be OK, going forwards I believe we are OK after that performance on Saturday and this is one thing that will put our heads above everyone else come end of the season. We have a wilson, we have asm, we have some quality. We will pick up momentum this takeover will prevent our heads from going down and other clubs will tank later in the season. 5 for me I'm in the fence

Our defence is awful and that's what's going to cost us essentially. Need dubs in and drop Clark for fede at a minimum to give us any chance of getting results

Joe Linton well deserved arguably our best player

Other results turning this into a must win for us here

Yeap so bad need to drop Clark and lascelles. Switch to 4 atb with actual rb and lbs in there

What do these players think they are doing running past the half way line?

Ffs the most Newcastle united thing to ever happen this like

"JoeLinton what would you say your best position is?" "I don't know gaffa" "do you score goals?" "no boss" "can you pass a ball?" "no boss" "what's your best attribute?" "dunno boss" "how much did they pay for you?" "40m boss" "ah I see you're the team joker!"

Not being arrogant mate maybe just pinning my hopes on howe to come in and get something out of our players. There's no excuses for the players now, change of ownership, change of manager, its down to the players to show themselves now.

Maybe just thought about it abit more 9 points 7 points what's a couple of points at this stage of the season ??

Nah sorry I refuse to accept we are worse than Norwich, and Brentfords honeymoon period looks like its wearing off. Burnley are hit and miss. The fact they are all at home as well. We have played 8 of the the top 10 in our first 11 games we just need to beat the teams around us and get a few lucky results which is always possible with a half decent game plan which we never had under bruce

Yeah totally I was thinking this last night I mean what more could we have asked for realistically. If we pick up 7 points out of our next 4 games that's 9 in our last 7. Continue that kind of form which is a win percentage of like 40% we could finish on 40 plus points and be safe.

The next 4 games are critical if we can't beat Burnley, Norwich and Brentford at home we are screwed imo the run is never going to get easier than what we have after IB

5 I'm on the fence. Will reassess when I see howes first line up at home. If lascelles and Clark are cbs we are in for a long season.
