    That’s a hell of a result if they pull that off. One that their fans will talk about for 30 years. Oh wait <laugh>

    Can’t lie, we’d absolutely smash Young Boys.

    Isak Bruno and Gordon would have a field day, they’re ****ing ****e.

    Newcastle had no chance in the group we got.

    Apart from the fact we were a dodgy decision and / or Miggy using his right foot from going through....

    They say that but it's like saying the other clubs took all their chances.

    Ultimately Newcastle finished bottom because they only 1 won one game in 6.

    But that doesn't mean we have "no chance" as we clearly did...

    They didn't qualify from the group like I say you can't put that on one single chance across 6 games

    Strictly speaking, not true. We finished bottom of our group because we had the least points and/or worst goal difference.

    <cheers>

    We were robbed of a win in Paris. That would have kept us in Europe.

    We don't know what would have happened if a decision here and there wasn't given... we only know Newcastle finished bottom.

    Everything else is ifs buts and maybes.

    The rule in Europe says pen mind... was unfortunate

    Like I say it was unfortunate but we could ponder every single ref decision in every game in the group for every club and create alternative futures.

    Lascelles got away with a handball vs psg for our 2nd at home .. the list goes on and on...each change would've changed the entire contest afterwards.

    It's therefore impossible to put the entire groups finishing positions down to one single event

    Newcastle weren't good enough over 6 games and in truth the draw put them out.
