Anyone can bang a drum and that is what they did all night
Nowt special about that

Saying that, if they allow other fans to enter with a drum then why can't we

Maybe you should wave some maracas in the air for the whole game, instead of £20 notes, will make more noise. <laugh>

I clearly do which is why I said ‘at the top level’. Top level players have been there, done that and got the badge. A crowd shouting and banging drums isn’t going to worry them.

You don't seem to understand how much it helps the home team which is surprising but then again I'm dealing with the king of mental gymnastics.

Perhaps you need to hear it from players?

You may also hear from the players that it works two ways and that is why at the top level it makes no difference difference.

Just keep reading and you may learn something. <cheers>

So we go back to the post that upset you when I suggested Dortmunds atmosphere and support is better than ours.

Sorry but it is.

Newcastles is one of the best in England but that's not saying much when compared to some of Europe and South America.

Thought you were leaving for the night a while back. Think we can see who is actually getting upset.

I agree I think a cb a really top fwd would be ideal ... Wilson and isak are both unreliable I'm terms of availability.

A CF I do think is a priority. We have got 2 very good strikers but their availability could really kill us. If Isak is out for a while I think he's going to have to try Gordon at CF to manage the amount of games Wilson needs to play.

Isak is always injured at this point he's less reliable than Wilson in that regard.

I suspect his suspect injury record is why newcastle got him and why bigger clubs passed on him.

I agree they need a proper striker and one made of tougher stuff
