Guest neesy111 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Didn’t we end the first relegation season with Portsmouth, Boro & Fulham at home before Villa and only got 4 points? 5 would have done it. Yes. It should have been 5 if it wasn't for Howard bent Webb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribesman Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Probably the biggest concern about Newcastle is only Huddersfield have scored less goals than us. We do struggle to score more than 1 per game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, aside from those 3 games though there were no fixtures where you could really see us get anything from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 In short, don't fucking whinge when other clubs do their best to pick up points. If we get relegated, with the fixtures we have, then we absolutely don't deserve to be in this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get relegated, with the fixtures we have, then we absolutely don't deserve to be in this league. Exactly right. I’ve been a zero from August and haven’t changed - and this is why. There are clearly three teams worse than us. We’re clearly not in the bottom three of the form table. We have a superior manager than any squad in the bottom half (at least). So zero, and if we do go down from here it’s because *someone* hit the self-destruct button. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Probably the biggest concern about Newcastle is only Huddersfield have scored less goals than us. We do struggle to score more than 1 per game. Look at it from Nov 1 and it's not as bad as that. We're fifth bottom in the goals for column and sixth top in the goal against one. Rondon, among others, is up to speed now, so the games before are not particularly relevant. I don't think you'd judge Man U now by their form under Mourinho In this period, we have only two fewer points than Wolves. On the season as a whole, we are actually equal in goals scored and against in the first half of matches. It is testament to how Benitez sets the team up. There is a huge discrepancy in the second half, 8 goals for and 20 against, but some will be the paucity of what is on the bench. The 3 second-half goals Liverpool got at Anfield were a blip and the Dubs door-opening errors against Man U and Spurs were both second half, making this stat worse than it should be.

Decky Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 We did well in that run of games. Bar 2 mistakes we would have had 3 more points. We're a much better side now and I expect us to get over the line in the next few weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I'd have been almost certain of our safety if we'd won that tbh, it feels like a big missed opportunity, but win the next 2 and I think we're set. Still a 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 If we win the next 2 we'll quite comfortably survive. We're so shit at home though which is a concern imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its an excellent return when you consider the quality and form of the teams we have played. Our run in is easier than last season. Get 8 points from remaining home matches and a handful away and we are home and dry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
