Newcastle (H) - Match Thread - 26/12/2022

Ref allowing a lot of physicality and letting things go, as instructed too, suiting them much more than us as we’re not using any bar Faes whereas if they want the ball they just shove us off it and take it, we’re too nice and they seem to want it more. 
Thomas goes from being next to Almiron to nowhere near him when he scores, poor concentration.

Daka is probably not the answer for Vardy replacement.

Think vardy gets younger and faster every time Daka plays

I don't care mate. I want professionals caring about the team, the fans and the stupid amount of money they're taking. Is there an official statement why Maddison is not at least on the bench today? Sorry for sounding angry but I really had enough of this. 

Too much damp for Maddison's knee too take? 🤣🤣. Just shows what a joke outfit we've become if no proper reason why he's actually out today has been given.

Amartey made the wrong decision. 

Copy this sentence; you can just paste it to save typing it out again several times every match. The man is a liability.

There’s not going to be many people left to get their coconut drink at full time.

We've been shit plenty of times. But I can't believe our overall performance, mindset,  work rate, confidence and organisation as been worse than this. 

 

Even at our worst, we at least looked OK going forward. 

This for me. Baffling at how unbelievably pathetic we’ve been. Absolutely miles off it and BR can’t take full blame for that.

 

Thomas frustrating me also. I fully appreciate players need downtime and a life outside football - whatever, fine. But when I see him off playing golf round the world and then pissing about at Ally Pally with the lads at the darts, at least bother to put half a shift in on game day…

[cruzFOX]

Just can’t believe how bad the tea looks they are making Newcastle look like they are something special! They are not we are just garbage. My eyes really hurt watching this. After watching some beautiful stuff during the World Cup this is poor.

[KFS]

Is 11am too early to crack out the whiskey? 

[Bazly]

Just tuned in. It looks like Ward must have brought back his Wales form. The season reloaded, 20+ goals incoming in the next 6 games. Wondering if I should go do something else with the rest of the afternoon.

[Kasey Keller]

The amount of times we pass it across our box and lose possession is frightening. A la the second goal

He’s had 6 weeks with them and all of a sudden all our previous issues and weaknesses are back…

I love how everyone keeps rolling out the "bang average" claims against Newcastle!  I'd take probably 7 or 8 of their first team and exchange them with ours.  If Newcastle are bang average, then what have we been for the past 18 months.  Christ almighty. 

Exactly

They are bang average thou let's not kid ourselfs.

 

Take Howe out that team they would be bottom again

Exactly the point, you take a decent manager and look what they get out of their players. 
 

Now compare it to our clown.

They’re really not 

[Reginaldo]

Pen was encroached not sure why VAR don’t pick up on this. We’ve been second best in that midfield we don’t have the legs there.

I don't expect us to win every game.

 

I don't expect us to be challenging for Europe every year.

 

What I do expect is for every player to give 100%. 

 

It's simply not acceptable. 

It shouldn't be accepted

Should be called Afarty cause he's about as much use as a fart in a hurricane.

[Jattdogg]

I may have missed it but is nacho injured? Or just BR got him playing an epic game of pocket football for top £?

Not my fav goalie ever but absolutely no chance with any of that with the shitshow in front of him

[Bryn]

That is actually a stonewall penalty on Daka.

They’re no as good as being made out to be, sorry. Don’t know why it’s different to when we shot up the table and the pundits couldn’t wait for it to drop off. Maybe because they’ll make media money off these cvnts for years to come?

Had too  much of the whiskey have we?

Don't get me wrong we look piss poor but their defence looks slow and vulnerable if we can get someone on who will play balls in behind them.

 

Do i think we will turn it around...no
