Rich Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 There was definitely something in the air during the 5-1 that felt missing last season, it was a bit like complacency had crept in. Hoping given our season and particularly the week we've had leading into this will bring that something back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Just realised I'm bound to see the same scrawny mackem c***s in the pub tomorrow (they were there when we played them at the SOL). Yay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 It seems he wants them to be more attacking, suggesting that he wants 3 or 4 players in the box when they're going forward. If that's his plan then I think we'll get them on the counter, I'm far less confident against teams that come here to contain and counter us. Their defence is full of ponderous players, who've been given a lot of protection thanks to O'Neill's style, I imagine they'll not do well against direct pace. Gouffran, Marveaux and Sissoko against that back 4, we should be looking at getting a few. Unless he's bullshitting of course, he seemed to have a reputation for dull football at Swindon.

Rich Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Hey, Interpolic: Alan Pardew fears Newcastle United could be knocked off their perch as North-East top dogs by the fatigue factor. Newcastle go into Sunday’s 146th Tyne-Wear derby following a gruelling Europa League match against Benfica on Thursday evening, whereas opponents Sunderland have had a week to prepare. ‘Paolo Di Canio has had three good training days full pelt with his team, I will have literally none. None,’ said Pardew. ‘My players will warm up, go back into the changing room and everything else will be on the board. We’ve got to get our message right on that board.’ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2308655/Alan-Pardew-says-team-lose-derby-tired.html#ixzz2QNpYPQYz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Sounds like the only chance our DECIMATED, super FATIGUED and FUCKING SHIT squad have is to park the bus for 70 minutes and then hope they've got the legs in the last 20 minutes... To continue to shut them out, and make sure we get out of the hostile St James Park with a point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To continue to shut them out, and make sure we get out of the hostile St James Park with a point. If we set up to contain them we're asking for trouble. Problem is, this is exactly what I see us doing. Contain for 60/70 mins and then bring on the cavalry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.S.R. Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 If we tried to contain them during Marty's reign, it would resemble the school hall in that Simpson's episode with Lisa Kudrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 We've won our last four home games in the league, and this lot are shite, so I'm not nervous at all. I think they'll commit too many forward and we'll just get them on the counter attack. They won't be able to handle the likes of Sissoko, Cisse and Marveaux running at them when they've put too many men forward. Also Ben Arfa attacking their tired legs man. Can't wait for this.
