Was seeing this as a possible win a couple of weeks ago, not so sure we'll get anything now. Ben Arfa looks on fire and Cabaye back in the team, not good. Recall this was when Marlon King got up and running, lets hope Graham kick starts his goal trail. Heres looking to A good round of 'you've been mauled by the tigers ', just to wind up the Geordies. (Though I prefer them to the Mackems)
Each game's different, if we play to our best then I think we'll get something. Villa are now below us so Newcastle's win means about as much as Cardiff's point agsinsvus on Saturday!
I think this game will depend on which Newcastle team decide to turn up. A point at St. James Park would be a great result though. Its a shame Joe Kinnear isn't in charge of team selection yet.
Dont see much at all to worry about with Newcastle. Other than Cardiff they will be the poorest team we have faced sio far in the PL. IF Hull City play like they did @ Manchester City then we shall win me thinks. As for Ben Arfa we must keep him off his left peg. Cabaye blows hot and cold. Livermore can do a job on him for us. Sid James Park is a nice big pitch and will suit us well. Get your wonga on a Danny Graham goal and a Hull win.
A point would be a good result for us, would like to see Rossy at right back, with Elmo wing back in place of Koren for this one, or just replace Elmo with Rossy.
May i suggest that you console your lad OLM after saturday. Do you have a spare £120 to give him like ? Evening Dan. Welcome to the positive side of this thread. Lol.
Is Cabaye better than Huddlestone? Is Ben Arfa better than Aluko? I don't see why we can't get a point or 3 We have a good recent record vs the Toon, they didn't beat us at all during our last visit to the PL
Aluko's got a better attitude.. anyhow Newcastle have so many French players these days they'll surrender after 70 minutes and then claim they weren't interested in the result when they've lost.. Trust me, I live there (or here if you get me drift)
Oh aye, and they'll be really quaking in their boots at the thought of Graham, Elmo and Koren It's the same size as the KC pitch
No. I love St James' and tickets are obviously as cheap as we can expect at this level, but I've decided to wait for another away game (ground I've not been to, maybe, like Palace or Southampton).
Think it will be tough for us to get anything from this game. A few weeks ago I'd almost have called this a win for us, but now not so sure. Would like to see Rossy in the side for Elmo, either pushing Koren out for him into midfield, or have him on the bench to give him a kick up the backside. Have Sagbo on the bench to come on late if we want to push for all 3, or we can sit back and take another point I guess.
We will lose 2-0 I think but 0-0 would be fantastic result. Our only chance of a win is a 0-1 win I reckon but a point would be more than welcome.
