Prutton was a no mark footballer and now has no mark opinions.
I'd rather consult Fredor on the merits of our team <whistle>

oh and a classic from Prutton in his prediction for Brighton to beat us, regarding Dwight Gayle:

"You worry about Newcastle when he's not in the team."

hmmmm, so we won 6 and drew 3 of the 9 games he was out for....yep, scary, scary stuff, we really are a 1 man team....

I wonder if he thinks he's so important he can actually influence the universe with his predictions (i.e. putting us down for a win so we lose)? Wouldn't bet against it. The thing is, what else does he do for a living? His job should be to get the facts right, research opposition, etc. My intense problem with all of the Sky ex-pro's is that they clearly don't. They don't coach, they don't watch anyone but the team they support (unless corporate hospitality beckons, but how much do they see behind the beer goggles?), they don't seem to do homework and they never, ever come up with any relevant facts. I'd like to see Soccer Saturday (and why the fck is it "Soccer" anything, by the way???) feature Henry Winter, Matthew Syed and George Caulkin.

I am sensing a lot of hatred towards David Prutton.

PS I don't think he has done much wrong, settle down chaps
 
Prutton has also compared us to the size of Stoke and WBA today.

Newly promoted or not, I'd still fancy our chances if we were all in for the same player.
 
Newcastle United:

Darlow, Gamez, Lascelles, Clark, Dummett, Ritchie, Colback, Shelvey, Gouffran, Perez, Murphy

Subs:

Elliot, Hanley, Mbemba, Yedlin, Anita, Diame, Gayle
 
Yep keep Gayle on the bench and Murphy starting for now, but Gamez? Seriously why? Only reason I can think is that he's easing Anita back into the team gradually.

And Diame on the bench too, will be interesting
