Match Day Thread Newcastle United v Fulham

Not a chance we beat you by 2+ goals on Wednesday night (without conceding). We don't have the firepower or the quality required and Howe's done pretty well against Arteta in recent times. If we'd got a draw in the first leg, I'd understand your concerns, but a 2-goal margin is pretty significant and we're not exactly a team filled with ruthless finishers.

Whilst our defence is generally excellent, our attack is barely Europa League level.

So yeah, I don't think you need to be overly concerned about us overturning that 2-goal deficit at SJP. You're as good as through to the final.

 

****ing hell we're still 5th win a cup final within touching distance.

 

Thanks for confirming we're out

 

Like I said. It ain't happening lol. You don't even need to win. In fact, you could lose the game and still go through to the final.

We really needed to get a goal or two in the first fixture and we didn't. It's a mountain to climb. Not happening I'm afraid.

 

I'm sticking the mortgage on you lot to qualify.

 

Not sure how often you watch us play, but if you have, you would understand why I have 0 hope going into the second leg. This season has been a disaster for us.

I'm being dead serious - it'd take something miraculous for us to get to the final now. With this crop of players? Yeah, forget it.

 

Was at the game..we were utter ****e from start to finish tbh

 

It’s weird because we seem to do this very often at home.

Maybe the fact that we can’t sign anyone has players being complacent.

FFP is truly ****.

 

Get some schooling ffs

 

We will probably still be playing Schar and burn next season until Xmas even if we sign a player.

You need to set your alarm for 2030.

 

This covid is lifting.. I think the players have it actually

 

Doesn't excuse Howe being **** at home to Fulham tbh

 

Do we think it’s Howe that’s the problem?

 

I've never been his biggest fan so your probably asking the wrong person.

 

I don't, problem is this team are crying out for new players. It's the same team every week bar injuries

 

They aren't coming unfortunately, so if the players are burned out history will repeat without risking a few changes here and there.

Bringing on Miley and Osula after like 86 mins.. Seems pointless.

Either those players are knackered or they couldn't be arsed.

 

**** e result and performance.

Positive - Lloyd Kelly demonstrated why he should be sold. Dogshit.

Negatives - Too many. We looked leggy and devoid of ideas. Schar and Burn partnership needs to end. Bring in Botman. Livramento - abysmal again. Ditto Hall. Isak anonymous. Also - **** off with the constant triangle passes.

 

It's the cbs.. If they're all over the shop and losing the ball constantly then nothing will work fwd or back.

 

Howe is a reactive manager.

 

I’m bored of him.

He’s just not going to take us any further forward.

And we can’t just keep blaming FFP because it’s just an excuse.
