    We’ve played much better teams this year too so not too bad all things considered.

    ‘Bit’ = ‘not’.

    And I agree.

    Think you’re maybe fooling yourself a little. We’re way off the pace and very one dimensional. Needs to change, perhaps it will, but these stats suit a narrative that doesn’t reflect reality.

    Like we beat villa at home last year and did this year, we beat Brentford at home last year and did this year, we lost to Man City away last year and did this year, we lost to Liverpool at home last year and did this year. We drew away at Brighton last a year and lost this year.

    stats don’t get much similar to those I’m afraid

    These stats are peak mental gymnastics because you can also say Newcastle lost 3 games from 5 this season compared to none for months last season.

    Basically people can create stats to suit the emotion they prefer.

    It's better to just say Newcastle are currently 11th.

    Lost to 10 man Liverpool, from a goal ahead. Got ****ing hammered by Brighton. Beat Brentford 4-1 last year, scraped 1-0 this year. Facts.

    Roly, You could win a competition that would give you a billion pounds, allow you to get your cock sucked by Margot Robbie whilst Megan fox hand feeds you chocolate treats in a 5 star luxurious resort in the sun and you would still, somehow, find something to complain about.

    93% of all stats are made up anyway. Fact.

    the only Russell in his house is the rustle of multiple bags of crisps being poured down his cake hole each day.

    She’d probably lack enthusiasm.
