Bolton 5 - 1 Newcastle United - 20/11/10 - post match reaction from page 32


Recommended Posts

At least Tiote is back next week and i'd bring in both Campbell and Taylor next week as well.  Sadly we are still struggling for a right midfielder as not sure Routledge is the answer either.

 

Can't even think of any youngsters appearing on the horizon that will suddenly have a breakout season that can play on the right. Not saying that's the answer, but it'd be great if it was an option.

 

Ryan Taylor is an option if we are desperate. He'd probably lose the ball under the slightest pressure from the opposition though.

 

He would be if he wasn't out for 3 months.

 

Routledge it is then. Another one who seems over-awed playing for a big club.

Think its just the Premier League in general that's caught him out. Not sure why, might be worth while sitting him down with a Sports Pyschologist and breaking down any mental walls he might have. Or he its possible he's just not good enough.

I'm sure you were watching the same game as me :lol:

 

The view from the...Home End :undecided:

 

Krul - 5 - couldn't do much about the two penalties, two one-on-ones by Elmander and Lee was given all the time in the world to pick his spot for the second. Seemed to realise his defence were having a shocker and lost all confidence in them early on, his distribution was erratic at best.

Simpson - 5 - best defender in a NUFC shirt today, not really saying much when we were thumped, occasionally went forward but not a lot happened.

Williamson - 4 - a very poor first half, seemed completely out of sorts against Davies and Elmander...letting the ball bounce? Thought we learnt our lesson against Blackburn. Would be making way for Campbell if Colo hadn't gone Jackie Chan.

Colo - 2 - wasn't exactly helped for their fourth by the ref, who missed the shove in the back (the home fans found that hilarious) but didn't do himself any favours by letting the ball bounce AGAIN AND AGAIN. Red card was deserved and seemed to be borne out of the frustration of being 'fouled' for the third. Didn't help us though.

Enrique - 3 - worst game I've seen him play in a balck and white shirt, even when he tried running at people in the second half, he's do the same move two or three times successfully and then rely on that for the next man...and get tackled. Didn't have any help from Jonas though, although I'm clutching at straws...penalty award was shocking (where have we seen this before? :rolleyes:)

Guthrie - 5 - bumped up a little because he WAS playing out of position but even then, he barely stuck to it and went wandering all over the pitch trying to force the issue early on. Should have tested Jaaskelainen with his left foot at 2-0 but instead copped out of the shot and wasted possession, summed up his day. Poor decision-making.

Smith - 4 - didn't realise he was playing until 20minutes into the game, had a few 'trademark tackles' in the second half which warmed the heart at 3-1 down but Bolton passed him out of the game. Didn't pass the ball out quick enough when in possession. Did make a fantastic flick with his head in first half to set one of the lads through...that was about it as a creative force.

Nolan - 4 - presumbaly he gave away the pen (we were at t'other end of ground) which knocks off a mark as it was blatant handball from 90 yards away, still seemed tidier in possession than the rest of our midfield...which is probably an indication of how poor we were. Didn't get any service around the box from the 'wingers' or front two, seemed to be visibly angry with the scoreline (I wonder why...) and the perfomance of the team. Not that it helped.

Jonas - 3 - must be injured, must be carrying a fairly serious knock but is battling through the pain (a la Ameobi c.2007) to help out the team. Really, he must be. Pulled out of every 60/40, let alone 50/50.

Ameobi - 4 - a few good touches, a few more dodgy ones. Did some good stuff, did a bit more bad stuff. Service wasn't great, in his defence, although he started to shadow Carroll a little more in second half which helped with the flick ons.

Carroll - 5 - battled gamely on his own, didn't look fit though, took his goal well but should have forced Jaaskelainen into a few more saves before that (see his low-percentage 'lob' attempt in first half, applaud the idea at 1-0 or 0-0, not when you're two goals down). Didn't have a cross into the box to attack all day, Zat Night(??) seemed to have the measure of him on the continued punts forward.

 

Subs:

Campbell - 6 - said at HT that this game was probably the launch of his Newcastle career, didn't do himself any harm. No nonsense.

Routledge - 6 - I can't believe I've actually come away from a match this season praising Routledge, fair play to him, at least he tried to do something - HE EVEN RAN AT DEFENDERS WITH THE BALL!!

Lovenkrands - 4 - missed two good chances, doesn't look match-fit/match-sharp which makes you wonder what reserve matches are for. Seems to be lacking in confidence.

 

Manager:

Hughton - 4 - wrong team selection, would be amazed to know what the pre-match and half-time team talks consisted of. Changes came far too late to help. Presumably he was trying to give the 'fringe' squad players some extra minutes to keep them happy (once the result was gone).

 

Our fans - 6 - pretty decent volume for 60mins

 

Their fans - 4 - no songs, just 3 kids sat behind a goal banging a drum :facepalm:

2 no mark this makes trot

Tioté barton and its vital

cons very disappointed by Smith. it is very low

He does not play often had something to prove

he could have seen the benefit without

 

I hope that Chris Hughton will do the cleaning for players

not feel concerned

so does the club in Premier League

 

2 absence de marque ce la fait trot

tioté et barton son indispensable

par contre trés déçu par smith. il est trés faible

lui qui ne joue pas souvent avait des chose a prouver

il aurait pu en profiter vu les absence

 

j'espere que chris hughton va faire le ménage pour les joueurs qui

ne sente pas concerné

il en va de la vie du club en première ligue

What in holy hell is that?

 

Another imposter for you to embarrassingly hold in contempt of your unworthy opinion, no doubt.

When the police were videoing the fans yesterday, I found it hillarious when some bloke whipped his phone out and started videoing the police who were videoing them

 

Why were the police videoing the fans, like? Does that usually happen?

football fans are criminals.

unfortunatly yes. within the last few years i witnessed the police filming a group of lads outside the central station waiting for their bus to take them to an away game. they got real stroppy when one of the lads took a walk round and started writing down the id no.s of the police doing it.

The most surprising thing about this result has been the celebration of Sunderland fans, did they change their name to Bolton or something.  :dowie:

That was my first Newcastle match in 17 years,was sat in the Bolton end.

 

After that horror show, you'll probably not be back for another 17 years!

Surely that's not surprising as such?

i've seen numerous Facebook's plastered with the kind of stuff you see when you lose a derby. Clutching at straws I guess.

Every Newcastle defeat is celebrated on Wearside with gusto. Even if they lose tomorrow night they'll still be happy because we lost.

It's quite pathetic, they celebrate our losses almost as much as Crumpy.
