Leaving Darlow on when he was clearly injured didnt do the team any favours. I'm not sure why he didnt put Gillespie on. With Dubravka out until December if it's anything serious with Darlow. We will be left with Gillespie as the main keeper.

At least Brucey will be able to cuddle this in bed tonight

Ah well at least I won £190 on Sky Bet had to wait for Rashford making the last shot of the match

Aye he'll have his Man Utd top on under his shirt

We're always at a disadvantage when we start with 10 men

Newcastle Starting XI: Darlow, Krafth, Fernandez, Lascelles, Lewis, Hayden, Shelvey, Hendrick, Joelinton, (I know) Saint-Maximin, Wilson

Yes I think so

Next week

8pm prompt

As long as there's no more than a group of 6

The ONS have just published this Daily coronavirus cases in England have increased by around 10,000 to around 27,900, according to latest ONS estimates. Last week's estimate was 17,200 per day, and the week before 12,600. There has also been a big jump in the number of people currently infected in England - rising from an estimated 224,400 to 336,500 in a week. That equates to a jump from 1 in 240, to 1 in 160.

It's hard to believe new infections were down to between 1 to 2,000 a day just as Lockdown ended to early imho. Now look were we are back at square one. Boris keeps bleating on about how better prepared we are but did it really have to get to this stage. We could have been in a much stronger position had he just listened to what he was told. It still begs the question why did he ignore the advice ?

They were telling us like SAGE had told Boris the whole country needed locking down. As we now know Boris ignored his advisers.

Aye it seems to be running rife in the Uni's yet Boris chooses to keep them & schools fully open despite knowing there's a big problem there.

Since the North East had to close pubs at 10pm. Are there any indications that its bringing the infection numbers down.

The James Atherton pub in New Brighton has been renamed in honour of Boris, Cummings & Hancock

Breaking news confirming what Ewerk said Pubs and restaurants, with the exception of takeaways and deliveries, will close for four weeks in Northern Ireland, First Minister Arlene Foster has said. Schools will also be closed for two weeks over-the Halloween half-term break in a bid to slow down the country's second wave of Covid-19. Over to you Boris

Pathetic morons

Daily Star leading with Boris in Lockdown U Turn Reports saying a National Lockdown to coinside with the school half term is 80% likely.

I said a couple of weeks ago I thought Boris would gamble & try to get to half term before calling a National Lockdown. With these minutes from the SAGE meeting 3 weeks ago now made public. It really does look like Boris just pleases himself what he does. He should face a massive backlash now. Questions that need to be asked are. Did YOU choose to ignore the scientific advice ? Or did somebody tell you to ignore it ?

17,234 more Covid-19 cases in UK

Be interesting to see if Boris has got the bollocks to put the North East in tier 3

Boris Johnson wants North East to agree to tougher lockdown rules including pub closures The Government says it wants North East leaders to agree to tougher measures but it could impose them on the region The Prime Minister's spokesman said talks about introducing "the most severe types of local action" were continuing. And he said that while Mr Johnson hoped to reach agreement with local council leaders and mayors, "the Government does have the ability to impose measures if it's considered that that's what's needed."
