Newcastle United 5 - 1 Cardiff City - 05/02/10 - post match reaction from p22


Recommended Posts

Some of the fans in level 7 are a joke and a lot of the young ones only stand there to wind other fans up. I love a bit of banter myself but when we have just won 5-1 against Cardiff and final whistle goes a lot of fans were more bother about getting over to goad the cardiff fans than clap the lads off the pitch after a great performance.  :angry:

also, lovenkrands undroppable - so much intelligent movement and play.

You'd hope so but Hughton comes out with bollocks about playing "A lot of games" and the need to "freshen it up" so he'll probably 'rest' rotate the strikers. It's funny how the likes of Enrique, Colo, Jonas, S.Taylor, etc don't get rested when fit. It should be, if you score you stay in the team until you don't score.

Brilliant, attacking team performance tonight. It would be difficult to pick a man of the match as several were great. Nolan was actually involved! Carroll played very well, proved me wrong.

Jonas and Routledge absolutely took the piss, fantastic stuff. That little showboat cross :smitten:

Some idiot in the Gallowgate called Hall a "fucking black cunt" for a pass back to Harper, even though it was probably the sensible move. Didn't say anything the next few times Hall did it or when Guthrie did it from just inside our own half.

 

:facepalm: Absolutely disgraceful. The worst I've heard, and I have been to games where Geremi has started.

Did it escape your notice that he took off his new signing after 60 mins to give Lovenkrands a good crack at it? A lot of managers might have been tempted to leave Best on to get a goal to prove their judgement right.

Christ, that's disgusting. I never hear racism anymore like. Aside from that old bloke a while back who said of Coloccini: 'I wouldn't sell him to the Chinkies!'...but that made no sense really.

 

Did anyone say owt, or at least give him a look?

'I wouldn't sell him to the Chinkies!'

No but would you agree Lovenkrands should start the next game based on tonight's performance? I'm more bothered that Hughton seems to rotate the strikers no matter if they score or not. Most teams stick with a pair for the majority of the time.

Even if the guy is a genuine hardcore racist, unless this was before the 7th minute what the fuck was he even complaining about? Wanker.

No one said anything, then people quickly broke into a rendition of "Newcastle, Newcastle..." Was fairly shocking, considering we were 3-0 up and Hall looked good all night, not that I would condone it whatsoever if he had played shit.

Just got back in. That was fucking amazing. I have no voice left and a headache too (I think my blood pressure went through the roof when we scored 3 in just on quarter of an hour). What a fucking difference that was. Superb attacking play. Shame about the charver arseholes who seemed more intent on goading the Cardiff fans at the end than celebrating a great win. There was also trouble outside the Milburn Stand on Barrack road too, looked like a whole load of young uns who were trying to be be casuals but ended up looking like dickheads with police horses, dogs and the plod rushing them. Stupid twats. All in all a fucking excellent night.

To be fair, until recently that hasn't really been possible.

 

Probably why these kind of players are starting to pick up injuries too thinking about it.

Just got in - totally unreal evening :lol:

 

It just goes to show the potential that this team has - we should be playing like that every week.

 

Harper - 7 - Hardly had owt to do, when called upon though was spot on as always.

 

Simpson - 8 - A very very good show from him - one the best displays I've seen from him in a B&W shirt - pinpoint perfect assist for Carroll's second.

Williamson - 8 - On top as always, turning out to be a very shrewd signing

Hall - 7 - Solid debut, he's a f***ing beast like :lol:

Van Aaholt - 7 - Once again, good going forward, a bit shaky at the back - Is very quickly forging a good relationship with Jonas though.

 

Routledge - 8 - His crossing is still bloody sweet, his passing equally so - needs to work on his finishing though. When he fell down and still managed the skill to get it past the defender :lol:

Nolan - 8 - A real captain's performance. Constantly talking to the other players, working out positioning, tell them to push forward etc. and he actually played well too - won challenges, passed to our men, had a few chances, set up a few attacks - really impressed me - by his standards, one of his best games.

Guthrie 7 - Good to see him get a run out in the centre. His cross-field passing was woeful, but the shorter stuff was impressive.

Jonas - 8 - Absolutely worked his socks off - look knackered when he went off. Determined, tracked back well, his passing and running were spot on.

 

Carroll - 8 - Took his two goals very well, as well as the own goal as well. How he didn't score a hattrick with the couple of chances he had in the last 10 mins.

Best - 7 - Not spectacular, but a very comfortable debut. Can hold the ball up well, his positioning is good as is his passing. The finishing is a bit questionable like.

 

Lovenkrands - 8 - Took his two goals well, the man is just a goal machine at times! Very intelligent play, his movement and running is very good. He's a definite starter for me like.

Taylor - Nothing of note really

 

Fans - 44k for a Friday league match is brilliant. Hats off to everyone who made the trip to the match, the atmosphere was a bit flat at first but picked up in the second half - got back to the noise of old after goal no.4 - had shivers during a course of Blaydon Races after Loven netted. Highlights of the chants "England, England...." and "Stand up for the sheep shaggers" :lol:

 

Hughton - 7 - Injuries or not, hats off for playing two proper wingers and Guthrie - Nolan together. Also, very suprised that Lovenkrands came on when he did - very positive change.

 

Oh, and it was good to have a ref that wasn't completely hell bent on ruining our chances.

 

HOWAY 5-1! :clap2:
