    Can't see anything but a home win, partly because our starting 11 will likely be all players from our championship side, but also because Newcastle are a great side.

    Newcastle away isn't the fixture we need to win to survive so today is a bit of a free hit. I will try to enjoy it regardless of the result (please remind me of this after we are 2 down due to **** passing at the back <laugh>).

    My tummy's all of a swirl. Could be excitement and trepidation, could be the last knockings of last night's mutton tikka, but the premier League is back and we're in it so there.

    Time for the commentators to refer to far too many things as 'heroic' and remind us of all the things that couldn't be written.

    Heart is going for plucky draw, head says comfortable home win. COYS

    I wonder who starts up front, if anyone. Doubt we start Tall Paul. Adarma doesn’t really work there and too soon for Archer to start I’d have thought. So BBD? And then Edozie on the left?

    A soupçon of nervous excitement is getting my knees trembling, may well ramp up to a frisson come kick off. Just as well I've had a good dump this morning.

    Is he back fit?

    I think it will be fun to decide who will be first to lose possession in a dangerous area.

    head says Macca, but I think it will be THB
