Newcastle United vs Citeh - Pre match thread


Recommended Posts

Don't know where a goal is going to come from to be honest, so I'd be very happy with a point tonight.

 

I thought that last week, but if Taylor and Duff can come up with the goods who knows what could happen!

 

1-1 draw.

We need to get something in the first 20 min and that will settle us down.

 

Absolutely. I'm sick of trailing in games. Going ahead for a change would be a huge boost.

 

Totally agree. My next door neighbour is a citeh fan who is going to the game tonight. He said "Will you still be speaking to me after the game!" and I said "Yep, will be thanking you for the 3 points." Saying that though, I don't feel that confident of a win, as its hard to see where we could get a goal from (Come on Shola, suprise the fuck out of everyone and get two) but would be kinda happy with a point. Still think Citeh are over-rated, and we should be able to get something from this game.

Will be interesting to see what effect Kinnear has on the players this week.

 

Tough game to call. I don't think we'll keep a clean sheet, while at the same time I can't see us threatening up front.

OBAFEMI MARTINS will be plunged back into the Newcastle United side against Manchester City under instructions from Joe Kinnear to come up with an early goal

Getting really nervous about this game now. While it's a massive boost that Oba's back, it's a set back that Jonas is out. Remember how well they linked up against Manure, can't wait to see that again. Our starting XI against the mackems should be very strong if we get both Jonas and Owen back.

"Oba Martins is way ahead of what was his scheduled return following his knee injury," said Kinnear.

 

"He will start for us tonight and I will monitor just how long he plays.

 

"He has trained very well in the last couple of days and, while he has yet to play for me, I know all about his track record and we are looking to him to provide the spark for us tonight."

Anyone any idea how many tickets are sold, and whether you can buy them at the box office before the game without booking them first?

 

No idea how many sold, but aye you can just turn up and buy them. Nae need to book.

Beye        Taylor        Coloccini      Enrique

 

Duff          Butt          Guthrie        N'Zogbia

 

              Ameobi    Martins

 

 

Subs: Harper, Bassong, Edgar, Geremi, Cacapa, Xisco, Ranger

Have a strange feeling we'll win this.

 

The players sound up for it which is a big boost. It would be nice to think Ameobi is hyped up and focused enough on playing as a specialist target man to actually cause some problems. Unfortunately he's shit in the air.
