    It would appear it is Game of the Day 20:00 on Sky Sports 2 Channel 403.

    Big Vic look delighted when he scored. A grin as wide as the solent. Whatever happens this summer, I firmly believe he would be happy playing football anywhere, but those advisors will likely steer him away from us.

    The nails would already be rusting on the coffins by then.

    If Tickets have not already been purchased(bar season tickets) then I wonder if the fans might boycott this game. Especially if it's at Villa Park, where the prices have been ridiculous.

    Great spot, although you clearly have missed the irony in the table we chose.... I'll leave you to think about that :emoticon-0143-smirk

    Think they'll steer him in whatever direction provides them with the biggest fee. Hence leaving the deal we offered on the table: if one of the big clubs don't come in for him this summer, they'll sign a new contract.

    ...and then immediately start plotting for a transfer.

    Pitch watering had its victims again today, including the Referee!

    Loved the match and now awaiting the true Geordie for his wonderful review of the game.

    He had a lot more options to be fair. It was a very offensive 4-4-2 formation with Pelle and Long up front with Tadić and Mane on the wings. It seemed as there was always someone open for a pass somewhere. We rarely go forward in such numbers.

    Though I really doubt it would work against a team stronger than Newcastle.

    Pelle and Mane did very well today. Good to have Long back up front - a well taken goal. Could and should have been a lot more, but good win nonetheless. Think Newcastle may be doomed.

    Not complaining. Just it was that easy.

    I agree and their defenders certainly helped. However as one who often criticises Pelle, I feel it right to point out when I think he has had a good game.

    Yep I agree. Pelle was what we expect - good in the air and took his goal well. Just shame he wasn't the first and the last goalscorer, but that is for personal and financial reasons :)

    It has to be said, and this isn't because Tom bought me a pint ('cos he didn't :angry:), but I thought Bobby Madley had an excellent game today. Can't think of a single mistake, and how often have we been able to say that this season?

    Best moment for me out of many great ones was Jay coming on. I thought he was going to score with his second touch!

    I don't think Fran actually exists. She's just a figment of our imaginations.

    Anyway, when's Mrs Godders turning up?
