12am ko is absolutely wank if you like/need a beer whilst watching it. 

I'm married to an Alcohol Specialist Nurse who's at graft on Sunday. 

Be great her walking into the living room at 5pm only to be confronted by her paralytic husband lying in a coma, in a pool of his own piss, covered in crisps

How about 12pm?

 

edit - tbf if you convince yourself it’s a 12am ko, that could possibly be an acceptable state to find yourself in.

It obviously isn't :lol:

I really think it is . Beat Chelsea and we will get top 5, don't beat them and I don't think we will due to the fixtures us and the teams around us have left. Let's see how it pans out .

It's not completely out of question to think that we couldnt draw arsenal and beat everton if we draw to Chelsea this weekend, which assuming villa don't win all their remaining games, could be enough assuming that final game between forest and Chelsea doesn't end in a draw.

 

Still much more difficult so I agree we really need to beat Chelsea this weekend

Just realised Arsenal may need result against us to secure champions league, not ideal.

 

It's why we're gonna need to root for arsenal to beat Liverpool this weekend but I doubt they will.

 

Liverpool are at home, and won't want to lose two in a row (especially if this is against arsenal) so they will actually try

Could end up in an Austria West Germany 1982 scenario between Forest and Chelsea on the last day if we don't beat Chelsea.  Which, as its Chelsea, will be completely endorsed.

If we can't beat Chelsea at home, we aren't beating Arsenal away IMO.

 

 

2 draws leaves our destiny to others.

If football was that predictable the bookies wouldn't take bets on it.

While 12pm is now recognised as correct, the proper term is still 12 noon.

They'll be allowed to sell the toilets in the stadium for a billion quid as reward.

How? Why?

 

Chelsea away form to top clubs:
Liverpool (L)

Arsenal (L)

Man City (L)

Villa (L)

 

Newcastle home form to top clubs:
Liverpool (D)

Arsenal (W)

Man City (D)

Villa (W)

Forest (W) 

 

 

Very happy to need to beat this Chelsea team at home to secure CL football. If we can't beat them we just aren't good enough and that's fine.

 

 

Because stats don't mean that much when key players are missing. I'll bet all those games you are citing we had Joelinton playing. Of course a draw is very likely. A win is also likely but when two top teams go head to head it doesn't necessarily mean a win is guaranteed for Newcastle when one of our key players is out.

Getting mixed up with 12am and 12pm reminded me of our trip to Oz in 2016 😂

Had to get up to watch our 8pm (UK) ko against Leicester at a casino (Star) near Darling Harbour. 

I think it was 5am, deffo 5am 😂😂

Place was empty apart from a few Chinese and I'm not sure having a couple of ales was good prep for the subsequent sightseeing. Long day, for sure. 

 

 

Ps we got beat 1 zip

Joelinton will miss Arsenal too.

 

We have to find a way and I trust Eddie to make it happen. Including wheeling out Joelinton one more time.

 

We've beaten better Chelsea teams with worse sides in the PL at SJP. I believe in the boys.

I was in aus for all of the Europa run under pardew, getting up early on a Friday to watch Thursday night games was a head fuck all day.

Imagine the highlight being the 0-0 away to Anzhi which was a 5pm ko here so god knows what time in Aus.

Villa and Chelsea games both moved to a Friday night to add to their home advantage:

 

May 16: Aston Villa vs Tottenham - 7.30pm

May 16: Chelsea vs Man Utd - 8.15pm

Thats good for us though? Gives Tottenham and Man Utd more time before the final. Wont need to rest as many.
