    Newcastle playing with Osula and Murphy upfront. That must be the worst attack in this league.

    Thought enzo was quality, now go get a couple more forward options and lucumi. More than a match at this level. 6 from 9, brilliant start

    Right lads, I had a slight health concern after the winner. I had a few messages but as I put my geggs on I couldn't read anything, it was all blurry. I told my son I think I'm having a stroke, I can't see. I told him I would check when we got back to the car. It was then that I put my glasses back on and realised the lenses had fell out

    the stats will look as if we 'did nowt' and got a lucky win, but there were at least three very good blocks from their defence that stopped 'on target' shots...not getting carried away yet but some good signs so far, and every win/good performance will increase the confidence.

    Anything been said on Mukiele injury? Thought the lad had a quality game so hopefully it's not a bad one.

    We’re a long way from playing fluently but it’s virtually a new team …

    … I’m just happy they’re fighting for each other.

    Also got to say, the GK is a massive upgrade on Patto. Some of the passing out was top class.

    I also thought he was superb but will need to see their goal back sure he switched off for an easy inside pass before the ball came across for the header. Might be wrong like

    He did one with some unreal curve out to ELF on the left I said straight away it was like a midfielders pass!
