He’s been either brilliant or rather awkward. But his ability to play out from the back should always give him the edge with Burn prone to scary stuff as well.

He thought about changing allegiance apparently. Thought about playing for Finland, too.

Anyway 3-0 Some cunt with a hattrick

Also a perfect example of getting his act together after some poor performances (for whatever reason)

Woltemade needs a bit more of physical presence to cope with the constant grabbing and pushing that doesn’t get punished.

Good referee btw

Totally different level of confidence now

Howay the carthorses!

They played really well, especially considering missing a lot of first team players. They press well and their passing is way superior to ours so far. We really need a second goal to settle nerves.

Top trolling

Fucking hell, Joe. It’s still an awful miss.

Gordon is obviously not fit as well as short of confidence. Bringing on either Murphy or Elanga and moving Barnes to the left wing should give us more of a threat

Gordon is the anti-Samson. Someone should cut his hair

People already moaning before the ball has even been kicked ffs.

I’ve got a friend who is from Cork and used to live in Germany (also in Meenz for some time). Most times neither English nor German speaking people can make out what he is saying. Very intelligent and good at pub quizzes though, which might be down to that “feck” is the only word he can pronounce clearly. Although very often.

3-0 Some cunt with a hattrick.

This one is down to the motivation of some players. They do go into these games totally lacking the right frame. The same players who are full of energy and intensity are looking a shadow of themselves in matches we are expected to win. It’s not fatigue either because the worst culprits got decent rests. It’s especially nothing you can blame Howe for as I don’t think it has got anything to do with his match preparation.

The wrath of Gemmilldamus strikes again.

Just awful first half. Newcastle United making ordinary teams look good since 1892
