yup. On top of that, it's classic Newcastle to get results playing tough teams, and fail against teams we should be beating. It would also be classic Newcastle to throw away a hard fought unbeaten run against Wigan. we're definitely going to lose
Lil Girth Cocks managed to miss out a Newcastle player in his team of the week:

I wouldn't say that Lawro could change his opinion so quickly after a decade of wishing us ill.

I'm sure he had us for a win against Fulham? The Perch Theory states he will get one right now and then just from dumb luck, just as Perchy will occasionally have a decent game, when for example the opposing team are without a left winger.
My money is on him predicting a draw.
A few backhanded compliments for us and a bit of praise for Roberto Martinez and the amazing job he's done and then a 1 - 1 or 0 - 0 draw. After all, he just can't see where the goals will come from, completely disregarding the fact that our strikers have 8 between them in 8 games.

I really think we will batter them 4 or 5 nil. They are on a slope and our confidence is sky high plus we have players still trying to impress Pardew.
We should win. Wigan are a shambles, we're on top top form, we're at home. A nice 5 nil would be lovely, it's been a while haha.
But
We're Newcastle.
Anything could happen.. unfortunately..
In all honesty, I think we'll end our unbeaten run against Stoke.

I'd be more worried about Pardew being complacent in this match and playing a weakened side than Lawro predicting a win.
I think Stoke is probably where it will all end as well. But their European exploits/generally poor form mean a draw is certainly possible.
I think we'll win comfortably 2 or 3-0 against Wigan, but we can't underestimate them, but Stoke away from home will be more of a test to our defense and Krul, on how he copes with long throws.
I'm really confident v Wigan. Last season our problem was ****ing up at home against sides like Fulham, Blackburn, Blackpool, Wigan etc but we seem to be setting that right this year and getting the job done.
I really think we can and will score 4+ against them.

I expect Lawro will completely switch viewpoint and predict a complete thumping.
I'm also confident we'll win UNLESS Pards starts concentrating on the CC midweek match instead of the Wigan game.
A couple of weeks ago I posted that I would have taken a loss to Wigan if it meant staying in the cup. Now I can't stand to see the run end, which means we're going to have to find two winning teams in 4 days. And which does make a loss to Stoke more likely.

I've got no concern with fielding a strong side in the CC. Don't forget after the Everton game there is ANOTHER two week international break. What a joke, but gives our players a rest before the frantic Christmas period.
No way would I want to drop points at Wigan in favour of the CC. We can play the likes of Shola, Gosling, Santon, Ben Arfa and a few others at Blackburn and still field a very strong team whilst maybe 'resting' a few - even though they don't need it as we've had good breaks between fixtures.
