merlin Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 This game has not come at the best of times because from what I saw in their match with Fulham, Blackpool are still playing on adrenaline. This often happens with unrated newly promoted teams..there have been plenty of examples over the years. Inevitably, the reality kicks in later in the season, but right now, it will be a bad mistake to underestimate Blackpool. They will get stuck in and the likes of Ben Arfa may well get far less time on the ball than they are used to so it could be a rude awakening for him. If we score first and early, we should win fairly comfortably, but if they happen to grab an early goal and we go in at HT a goal down, we will struggle because they will run all day to defend it. All the games we have played so far were against teams who were considered better(or equal)to us, and the pressure was off the players to a degree. In this match, we are expected to win, and win comfortably...football is not always like that and NUFC has a history of falling at the easy hurdles. No prediction on the score, but as I said, unless we get an early goal it could be tougher than many think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
broonalegeordie Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Maybe I missed some news, but is the #keane transfer close or something? Just people seem to be including him in formations... Think we will win this one 7-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 We smashed them last time out and must be looking to do the same again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 We're pretty much the same/strengthened if we play HBA or Tiote. They've not added much either - we should be looking at a similar score to last time. Harper Perch Will Colo Jose Rout Tiote Barton Jonas Carroll Nolan Subs: Krul, Campbell, Smith, Ben Arfa, Lovenkrands, Guthrie, Ameobi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanSkÃrare Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Carroll nailed on for another hattrick here. Perfect game for Ben Arfa to make his debut in as well, looking forward to him having a go at Baptiste and Catchcart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 We should maul this lot, just like we did a few months ago. 4-0 win, Carroll, Nolan (2) and Ben Arfa on his debut. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistle17 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I'm going to this one!!! Will be in the Gallowgate for it, can't wait. Any win will do me, but I think we'll win 3-0 with Carroll getting on the scoresheet. Still, I don't think it will be easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 wouldn't be surprised if he started tiote and benched ben arfa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pedro_de_geordieo Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Looking forward to this even though it's Blackpool, will be a good opportunity for Barfa to show his dribbles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Part of me thinks what has realistically changed since then, but Blackpool have strengthened. I'd still hope for a comfortable win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I'm personally of the opinion that all our signings bar Gosling who became available are here because while Hughton does not doubt the existing team, he doubts their capability to perform for 90 minutes for 50 games. Therefore after an international break where not many are to feature, expect to see the same XI we have played all season if all are fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EthiGeordie Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I would say Campbell will start this one. In place of Williamson. Also Tiote and Ben Arfa will make some apperance in the match probably from the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hope for a nice 3-0 with one of the new signings scoring ,along with Routledge or Jonas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
