    I mean, technically nobody in the history of the world ever bar about 15 blokes is a right answer.

    Guess which former Newcastle striker sold to Liverpool this summer for over £100m wasn’t playing?

    People saying we're not in the relegation battle might want to look at the table

    2 points clear of 18th with Brentford away and Man City home the next two games. We might not get relegated, but we're currently in the relegation battle.

    They've got something going unfortunately... They give absolutely everything... Our lot think they're something and have become nonchalant.

    We're going to lose against them. We have a mentality issue away from home and Howe does not address it.

    I reckon people will seriously turn on Howe if we do lose.

    I think it's actually good to have both NE teams doing well. And great to have the derby games back.

    Yes, of course it was huge fun when they were struggling while we were on the rise. Loved it. But long term, it's healthy to have both NE teams competing in the PL. Much better for football and for fan/club rivalry.

    Fair play to them.

    I hope we totally smash them of course.

    The reality is Newcastle are 2 points off 18th heading into Tomorrow. The fact we're doing well in Europe won't paper over the cracks for much longer.

    They need to get their heads out of their arses. Howe included.

    We are losing away from home and it is not being addressed.

    The situation could start to get out of hand before we even go to Sunderland. I mean, lose the next two and we could be in the bottom 3.

    I think Howe needs a win from the next two or he's going to feel the heat for the first time here.

    A lot of fans will not forgive a derby loss. That will be point if we do not improve.

    The situation could look different if Newcastle can get a win Tomorrow, but given Brentford are good at home and we're a soft touch I fear the worst.

    3 to 4 points from the next 2 games is required to avoid a relegation battle over Christmas
