Decky Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Sucks to have games off this and next week but it definitely suits us like for injuries. BTW its an international break after Bournemouth. Our next game will be 1st October. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes23 Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 More postponements = more midweek games = greater advantage for teams with the most depth Also the greatest disadvantage for teams with a higher intensity pressing game who are lacking in depth.

Paullow Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Obviously some things are more important, but just from a purely Newcastle United perspective, it'll not be ideal if the (tough away) West Ham match goes ahead on Sunday (with the current injuries), but the Bournemouth one is postponed. Good chance we'd head into what would then be an international break with no wins in 6, more than 2 months since the last win, and another away match when they return.
