I Think you might have that the wrong way round, Mbokani was doing most of the defending, leaving Naismith as the lone forward. Honestly couldn't see where and when he was pressing and harassing? His link up play with Mbokani was pretty awful, I can only remember one occasion when there was any profit from it. Sorry to disagree, but that's how I saw it!
No they both did pretty good at pressing, the fans clapping him off should give you an indication that he had a good game.
What I said was "Mbokani was doing most of the defending, leaving Naismith as the lone forward"! That's, while Mbokani is defending Naismith was the lone forward. This was in response to you saying that Naismith was doing a lot of defending!
Tbf all the players I thought put in a good shift and gave it their all, finally seeing the team showing some fighting spirit. Must admit we were lucky with the 3rd goal, hit Howson's hand 2 times.
I don't know where in the ground you sit ILD, but I would agree that Naismith didn't have a very good game and wanted Bamford to come on for him, but instead Hoolahan replaced him. The fas around me certainly applauded when he went off though. Edit - I recorded Final Score and it was great to watch Dion's emotions as Norwich led 2-1, had the penalty awarded against them and then went on to wn it at the death. Also, certainly from what they showed on MotD, JH handled the ball in the build up to our winner. Sorry Mulder - only just seen your post. I guess it's a little bit of justice for not giving us a penalty and then awarding a soft penalty for Toon. Edit - tweet from MO - martin olsson @martinolsson3 2h2 hours ago Newcastle gave us a tough game but happy we got the 3 points.

I'm in the Upper N & P area S. Didn't mean to upset anyone but that' was my opinion, other people saw it differently, fair enough.
If you can not keep a civil tongue in ones head kindly keep your views to ones self . This is not the knitting thread & we have standards of decency on on here. I bid you goodnight Sir !
Not that far away, as in lower area Q. Having seen all of MotD, Naismith did have an excellent first half!!!
F*ck off Shearer! Don't show or talk about our pen, but say Howson Hand balled for the winner and should have been a Newcastle Free-Kick! It's almost like he's Bias or something.
Yes the ball did hit his hand but the law states that it has to be "HAND TO BALL"! As usual Shearer tries to make up his own rules, I can't stand that man!!
Thanks Cromer. I must listen to Canary Call this evening - should be good for a laugh. Someone said about it being reminiscent of Jacko's winner V Derby when Savage sauntered off and the referee addedon extra time. I wonder if we created our own 'earthquake' around CR yesterday???
