Match Day Thread Newcastle United v Ipswich Town

Not at the rate you're going. If I was Chippy I'd be shopping by now.

 

Earlier start than the early start the last game

 

Good turn out from the 606 lads

Judge, Jak, Trev , Mick , Micks nephew, Magdad, Magdad Junior
Sombrero and me

 

Sounds like a good meet up.
Enjoy lads.

 

No Joelinton in the starting 11...

Newcastle XI: Pope, Trippier, Schar, Burn, Livramento, Bruno Guimaraes, Tonali, Willock, Murphy, Isak, Barnes

 

Willock in for Joelinton.

Botman on the bench.

 

No Joelinton?

 

Is Joelinton injured, sick or suspended?

It's probably the right game for willock but I'd like to see Joelinton available for the next games.

We've struggled without Joelinton this season

 

Joelinton has a knee injury, just out for this game I think.

 

Willock normally needs 3 or 4 games to get up to speed. Hopefully puts in a good show today.

 

I agree. Key player. Hopefully a very brief absence.

 

That's the bad news. The good news is we're playing a horrendously bad team who have won 1 of their last 14 league games, and half their team are injured.

Willock will play a masterclass here.

 

Another awfully relaxed start at the back and the absence of Joelinton apparent.

 

They're saying on the radio that Joelinton is going to need to see a specialist about his knee and that his season may be over.

 

It should be 3-0 by now.

Eddie out.

 

We are going to get beat on the evidence so far ....

 

Who to? According to Merse, Ipswich are all over us.
