STM Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I think we will win............................... if Smith and Butt don't play. If they do we will have to rely on luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShearMagic Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Since the Mackems are playing Derby this weekend, I'm assuming they'll win. That means that after we lose, they'll be above us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Lol Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 2-0 to Blackburn. For a very different reason they need the points just as much as you. And they're better equipped to get them imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heero Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 we better fucking win this game, but then again if you think about it, we'll probably lose. I hope we win, but thats it. we are in the shitter, and it will take some motivating to get us on the right track. I hope KK can get his players to perform to a decent standard. But then again, how many dencent players do we have Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley17 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 If Nelsen misses out for them (he's doubtful according to .com) then that will give us a greater chance, he's a rock for them. I realise he missed our game down there place, but shut up! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoli Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I'm surprised at how many people are going for a Toon win. I admire the optimism but it defies sense, considering Blackburn are currently stronger in virtually every position plus have a good record up here of late and are coming off the back of a crushing derby victory. Me too. Rovers have had a good run going in the northeast, too. Also, I just can't see KK dropping Butt, Smith or Barton - even though he needs to. I just don't see us getting a win. I'm going for a drab draw or another home thumping by the visitors. The lads just don't have any fight in them and that's exactly what is needed to avoid relegation.

Dave Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 ..and today's 'No shit Sherlock!' award goes to... Michael Owen! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/newcastle_united/7269544.stm Magpies confidence is low - Owen Newcastle captain Michael Owen says the club's poor form has hit the players' confidence as the Magpies try to avoid being sucked into a relegation battle. The Magpies have not won under manager Kevin Keegan and are only six points above the relegation zone. "Confidence isn't at its best," striker Owen, 28, told BBC Radio 5 Live. "There is nervousness throughout the side. "We need a win and the sooner the better. As soon as we get that I think confidence will come flooding back." Keegan returned to the club in January and over the next month his side face matches against Blackburn, Liverpool, Birmingham, Fulham and Tottenham in a bid to accumulate enough points to avoid a struggle against the drop in the run-in to the season. However, Newcastle captain Owen insists there is no panic in the Newcastle ranks, with 11 games left to play. "We've got an awful lot of games left and we aren't in the relegation zone at the moment," said the England forward. "We're not at panic stations but we are obviously well aware we need to get a result - and fast. "This game against Blackburn on Saturday is one you look at and think Newcastle at home should be getting something out of it. "If we can do that we can get a bit of confidence. We then play Liverpool and after that we have got a few games that are winnable. "If we can get some confidence going into those games then I'm sure we can push onwards and upwards."

TRon Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Christ, you'd think Blackburn were Barcelona. They're not that good and they're noticeably shakier at the back than the teams around them. They're scoring goals and we haven't looked like doing that for months. We haven't looked like stopping them at the other end either and in the middle we are just pants so concern is understandable. What I would like to think is that now we are playing lesser teams, our midfield might not look so shit. Although it did against Middlesboro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gray Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 If i was playing tbh this would be the game of my season in terms of effort and commitment. Hopefully they see it this way too. We WILL score first, but we NEED to get a second before half time. The problem when we last played them was long balls into the box and it was Martins V Samba - easy aerial battle (although Martins scored a header like!) bt it just wasnt working, we had no possession. Get the ball on the deck, get it forward and get at them!! HOWAY LADS!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Take a draw from this, can see Bentley terrorising us if N'Zog plays LB. Also generally dangerous from crosses are Blackburn something that i have little or no confidence in us defending. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
