Newcastle United vs. Reading Pre-match thread K.O. 5:20pm *Live on Sky*


Recommended Posts

Really looking forward to this, even though I know the attendance will be poor, but I'm quite optimistic after yesterday.

 

No idea who will be here next weekend, but I'd probably go with the same team as yesterday, replacing Shola with Barton or Guthrie and play Nolan just off Carroll. Hope Harpers injury isn't bad news but KI would still like to see Krul in goal next week.

 

Remember, we started with a 1-1 draw last year, then a 1-0 home win, but we ended up getting relegated.

 

Reading drew 0-0 with Nottm Forest yesterday, and apparently Forest were poor.

 

Howay the lads :indi:

 

Warning: The last match thread I started we lost 6-1

Carroll

 

No chance like. We'll either get Shola s*** legs or Nob 'ead Nolan with Carroll. I'd also be tempted to throw in Geremi as well.

Be between 35k and 40k i reckon. And i think it'll be like that all season if i'm honest... 40k+ if we start winning games.

 

Krul

 

Taylor  Taylor  Coloccini  Enrique

 

Lua Lua  Barton  Smith  Jonas

 

Carroll  Duff

 

So the only change being Lua Lua in for Shola, and i wouldn't be surprised to see something like that happen. Putting Duff just off Carroll. Seeing as we're bound to be stuck with Duff (although i can't stand the bloke 95% of the time), i pray to God he's going to be of some use this year, and i have a bit of faith he might be. He's never gonna be a quality winger who can whip a ball in - but he can retain possession well and if we can get him running at players, he'll do alright this year.

 

I wouldn't throw Ranger in at the deep end just yet, though i'd like to see him get on from the bench if we're in a position to do so. No more of this 89 minutes malarkey.

 

Another encouraging if unspectacular draw on the cards i reckon.

What's the average time out for concussion? Looks like he took a good hard smack mind.

Deadly serious about Ranger, Ameobi offered nothing.
