    Our match day threads are some of the best on the site and everyone knows it.

    Its pure entertainment and thats just one of the perks of using this site

    The Leeds lads also have proper funny match day threads too, theyre a laugh.

    I don't see any lack of team spirit or fight, Liverpool performance was awesome, they looked fearless.

    Yesterday could have been better, but wasn't terrible, after the break we'll see the real thing with the full team.

    I didn't see enough desire Yesterday mind, which can happen with this lot. They don't get up for these games and that's why we'll never be up there with the best.

    It's not just a Newcastle thing, but clubs do raise their game vs the big 6.. Probably auditioning or it just gives them a little extra.

    I personally think Newcastle were absolutely dreadful Yesterday and I think the worst since I think Palace where they went the entire game without a shot.... It does happen.

    Like not winning vs the **** sides is something Howe seems to have an issue with.. We lost twice to Luton for example.. It's a common thing I'm sure

    Our issue is breaking down teams to create clear goalscoring opportunities, when you have a 50/50 match, you can dispossess the opposition and go on a counter attack. When you're up against Leeds who enjoy sitting back and absorbing pressure, its on Newcastle to do something special, we just don't have the flair especially away from home.

    When we can't think of anything to do our game devolves into long ball football which is just utterly ****.

    Another newly created CC myth.

    Last season we took 18 points off the bottom 3 teams.

    Next. <doh>

    I seem to think that we never start seasons particularly well. Not sure why, as such, but we don't seem to get the best XI on the pitch until GW6.

    Osula is poor. Barnes is worse. Trippier is past it. The 5-4-1 is not conducive to free scoring football but we went to Leeds and are unbeaten on the road, we will get better. Once Hall is in, when we have a proper striker back in, when Gordon returns, with Joelinton back and finally get Pope out we'll push hard this season and be a threat. City have already lost twice, Spurs went all Spursy yesterday, Man U are still miles off it. Arsenal, Liverpool and arguably Chelsea will likely make up the first three, but is there really anyone markedly better than us for fourth? If we add one or two more tomorrow - or somehow reintegrate Isak - we should be good and I think we'll be more of a surprise in the UCL.

    It's definitely been a thing over the 4 years mate and I never said the bottom 3 exclusively.

    Not sure on a few of those mate but possibly right yeah.


    That would be ideal at this point. I don't see Isak being sold now of any benefit whatsoever. They can't get in any reinforcements.

    Possibly the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th and 6th

    While you're probably correct it still needs to be demonstrated, that's all.

    We really didn't lose twice to Luton.

    I remember Kenny Wharton taking the piss by sitting on the ball when winning 4-0 against them ( I think it was 4)
    Steve Foster of Luton chased him all over going to chin him <laugh>
