    Jones has cost us tonight with his baffling team selection and tactics. You're 1-0 down in a cup tie and you go with 3 CB's. Just shows he's out of his depth.

    We get you, Tom. We've heard you the three hundred times you've mentioned it.

    I guess old habits die hard but I don't understand why anyone would bother with that stuff any more. The ref has just watched several slow motion replays of the tackle, he knows exactly what happened!

    Do the 3 CB’s push up high, or have we been playing a low block?

    Will be interesting to see how much time is added on for this.

    No matter, we could have 180 mins against ten men and still create about one chance.

    Jones will say we dominated the 2nd half. Yes Nathan, after Newcastle decided to sit back and preserve their lead we handed to them in the first 20 mins.

    Calm down. Three at the back wasn’t what f*cked us. A piss poor CM pairing did. The worst player was Alcaraz, who everyone on here thought was amazing in the last game. It ain’t easy. Ultimately think we improved a lot as the game went on.
