Newcastle United v Swansea City - Official Build Up / Match Day Thread

Attack attack, attack attack attack.

Where have I heard those words before?

 

That depends, how young were you when Top of the Pops started...?

 

Hmmppphhhhh, you can go off people you know!

 

I felt so bad making that joke, honest!



Sometimes the badger working me with controls from inside exposes the evil ambition below the glittering veneer...

 

Naughty badger!

 

love playing the toon as you have the best stadium in the uk imo....Im glad you have gone back yo your original name as i could never remember that stupid name you had .. It's going to be a tough game for us with the news we have selection problems due to injuries but we will still give you a game and wont lie down....My prediction on the swans board is 2-1 home win but hoping of course the reverse of that...here's to a cracking game....

 

2-1 is the score I fancy but I'm expecting a hard game, you're doing very well at the moment.

 

Cabaye is out apparently.

I'd go with this -

------Ba-----Shola-------

----------HBA------------

--Anita--Tiote---Bigi-------

Santon--Willo--Saylor--Simpson

-----------Krul----------------

This game is one of the few where a direct long ball approach might be effective.

I say play it long to the two biguns, have Hatem drifting from the left, middle and right behind them, picking up the knock downs, and have the three holding mids behind them.

We need to be precise in our passing and strong in our attack.

 

I fecking hope Cisse plays. He's in my fantasy football team (I think it'll be the ultimate master-stroke )...

Pardew says they sent documentation proving Cisse had a small knock (back-strain) so couldn't play for Senegal, but the Senegalese say they didn't receive it. Apparently that means they can enact some draconian law of Fifa which states if a player is ruled out of a (friendly FFS) match, the nation's FA can effectively suspend the player for 5 days afterwards... ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Damn you fantasy football gods!

 

Cisse and Cabaye are out.

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Has it been officially confirmed? I just read on BBC Sport that Cisse's is up in the air whether he'll play

 

I put Newcastle vs Swansea on the fifa 13 and sat and watched as we drew 2-2 but our goals both come from Jonas so I'm still a little skeptical.

 

I think we can win. I think we were tired vs WHU. We'll be recharged vs Swansea, and despite losing we were pretty solid vs West Ham. We conceded one goal, but apart from that we locked solid. We just couldn't score due to poor tactics.

 

Poor everything, one of the worst games I've seen.

Come on now guys! all you've got to do to beat us, is target and run at Garry Monk, the old boot is third choice CB, and starting on Saturday in place of Chico, Think Laudrup is making a big mistake playing him, would sooner see, our Jazz Richards in there, at least his age isn't against him. Anyway I'm going for a 2-1 to Newcastle, though it's highly likely to be a draw game! What's up with you boys this season, you seem out of puff, and slow! Please be that tomorrow............

 

How have you made 5000 posts, yet not got a jot of rep???
