Worst part of the night is them singing championship songs.

He was pulled back. It was a pen. What's not to understand?

My biggest criticism. Why isn't Tino on the pitch?

Not watched much footy recently?

Because he didn't..

Why would he dive man. He was pulled back.

Formation hasn't worked... largely because Murphy and Krafth are of such poor quality that we are a worse side. Sometimes just playing your best players is the best strategy.

Longstaff has been much better in the last couple of games IMO.

It hasn't even been raining man. That's the worst thing.

This isn't safe to play on.

We are almost certainly getting 10m+ for Ashworth leaving, which correct me if I'm wrong also adds to our PSR kitty. We are also building a youth setup where we can start to see some loan fees coming into the equation. Put it this way, if Minteh heads back out on loan, I'd expect a couple of million heading our way. Every little helps in that regard.

We've paid over 40m for a player in every transfer window we have been involved in (apart from January gone). In the scenario I outlined above, I could easily see: 50m for Diomande Kelly for free 50m for a RW/Striker If we recoup 30/40m for the 3 I mentioned above, that's more than doable.

I've said this before, but it's worth reiterating... Every transfer window in which we have spent money, we have been way more ambitious than what I would have been. In the relegation zone: We signed Bruno and Trippier Following summer: Beat AC Milan to Botman and signed one of most highly rated young strikers in Europe in Isak. Following Summer: Took AC Milans future captain off them (ok, I know, I know). The point is, sometimes we are guilty of a lack of imagination. IF we have money to spend, we tend to go after real quality.

If wouldn't surprise you if Chelsea win 6 games in a row, despite never looking like doing that all season? Stiffy, this is one of those worried Newcastle fan posts, where you imagine the worst case scenario and run with it. TBF, I did it during the run last season. Newcastle will 100% drop points, possibly tonight, but we are better placed to pick ourselves up. Even if we lose against Palace, we couldn't have a better fixture than SU to recover. I'd be surprised if we don't get 3 wins, which will be enough IMO.

If he's close. It's much more likely that he waits until Sheffield U at home.
