Cannot believe Longstaff was on the pitch the whole time. 

But he is literally the only one in the squad who can play that role, we had no real choice. I expect that to change this week in the transfer market.

I’m shocked so many on here don’t see that as a really positive result.

 

For me, it's positive in that we still got something from it against clear adversity in the form of shit officiating and a draw is of course better than a loss. Think Wolves were there for the taking really, but maybe starting with Wood was a mistake, he's just not up to it.

We looked good throughout, but Wolves [the other team, remember them?] looked a bit better.

Wood isn't a top forward, we know. 

Dodging the question, fair enough. Apologize for a dogshit player all you want. Wont make him better.

So fucking sick of getting robbed by the ref against Wolves, like. Should've had six points against them in the last Rafa season and got one. We should absolutely have had a pen for that shirt pull. It's soft but it's always a foul ffs.

Don't understand why they never give shirt pulls in the box, penalty all day. Wolves constantly getting in the refs face also pissed me off, the amount of times they tried to get a Newcastle player booked was ridiculous.

That is a sign of the spirit this team now has.

 

Not a great performance, but we never gave up and got probably a fair result. If we had a fully fit team, we would have won today.

 

Still unbeaten in the league as well.


Only lost to last season’s incarnation of City and Liverpool in our last 13 competitive games. Not bad at all.

It's a decent result, but they were just so bad man.

 

We had 21 shots (6 on target) and 13 corners today. And ended with 64% possession too.

 

Really glad we at least got a point though, a loss would have been sickening.

Ah the old languid running style= lack of effort thing.

 

Thought Willock was alright aside from his miss, he was easily our most successful presser. I counted at least 4 times he pressed and won it back.

 

Anderson played really well when he came on, it's a shame he doesn't play in Longstaff's position.

 

Sorry, Willock was the worst player for us on the pitch with Burn and Wood (at least in the first 45). It's not even debatable. Doesn't seem to care at all.

A poor performance is not related to effort and pashun.

fair result in the end. and the sort of game away from home we’d get nowt from in past. happy with a draw 

 

I disagree, we had way more fouls against us that just weren't given when they clearly should, including a blatant pen for the shirt/arm pull on Longstaff. It's nice though that we're in a position where I feel I can see matches like this as two missed points.

Negatives: We could've won it at the death, maybe some more injuries.

Positives: Still unbeaten despite being short of our two best players. 

 

One thing I loved is that the Wolves No.9 clearly had that stupid fucking eye patch on all game ready to wear to celebrate. And he did. And it was disallowed......Womp womp. [emoji38]

 

An entertaining match, would watch again.

Longstaff was really poor I thought. Takes so many touches and rubbish floated balls to the wings

We are already 4 points better off than we where from the same or equivalent games last season. We have played City at home and 2 really solid premier league teams away from home and not at full strength. We remain unbeaten and will hopefully bring in a couple more this week.

Thought he was ok for the first 45. He's clearly not talented enough, but he was everywhere for the first 25 minutes. His second half was a ridiculously poor showing, but that's because he was trying to do stuff he's not comfortable doing. I think he's ok if he's told to run and just keep the passing simple and not trying to do Bruno passes. Willock on the other hand, is clearly talented, but the game just passes him by.
