OK, let's get it going then. Niasse must surely start up front tomorrow, but who would you start with him?
Warnock says he's not been playing, so won't last 90 mins. Do we start him or bring him off the bench? I'd get 60 mins out of him and see how we're doing. Patterson on the bench if he's carrying a bump. Who will feed him though? NML and Murphy? Hoillet may be more intelligent in bringing him into play. Camarasa in behind playing through balls? Not sure we can start with 2 up top even with Newcastles midfield injuries. Over to you Neil.
I expect the new guy will be on bench. Back 5 pick themselves if Morrison is out. Usual central midfield trio assuming Victor is fit. NML and Hoilett out wide with Paterson up front? Reid maybe? ps just heard on radio that paperwork needs to be sorted for the new guy to play today
No Morro (expected), Arter (unexpected) and Gunnar in bench. Niasse starting as centre forward. Pato in midfield to kick lumps off them?
Arter out - bet Rall has a stormer! Just how will Pato be played today? Back in midfield to come through into space to get on the end of something, or will he be left up there for Niasse to feed off - very interesting!

Wow. Hope Morro recovers well and quickly but certainly out for 6 weeks. It is clear why Connolly's loan has been put on hold. Pity for him but we need him as cb cover.
Just saw the Magpie’s goal, It was pretty soft. We seem to have slighty more posession, but that’s stats. No live feed for me today, how’s it sounding guys, are we at the races or in the toilet?
Saw the Magpies goal on vid as well. It was like the Red Sea parting for Moses (only it wasn't Moses). We just let their bloke through from halfway to score easily - what a terrible goal to give away. Needs to change because they're no great shakes - we're just letting them play.
Well. Predicted this. We were so poor against Huddersfield, it was hard to see us turn this around. We need more than just strikers! Now Morro is down for 6 weeks....slip sliding away methinks.
