Cotterill should come on

Brownhill not the player we need on the right today - looks lost

Cotterill isn't in the squad

We can be complacent any day!  Still, l let's hope for a good win and not hanging on by the skin of our teeth and nail biting stuff.  So COYR's

Agreed, I want to party against Birmingham, not be rocking back and forth in my seat!!

Got a feeling we might start with a bit of complacency and go a goal down. That'll wake up the Gate and we'll roar them on to a 2-1 victory. 

We surely cannot be complacent on a day like this!!!

Take us home boys!!

Warranted though tbf

It doesn't warrant it though does it. Our team is a shambles, disallowed goal or not 

There's LJ's excuse lined up.

Predict the next two Newcastle goal times...

 

I´ll go for 84 and 88.

My heart couldn't take it. Been broken too many times

I would take Flint off and bring Magnusson on about now. Calmer defender plus better ball distributer

Strange timing after he just made what sounded like a goal saving tackle

Game over! (feel free to point and laugh at this post if we win)

He started. 

I stand corrected then - although I do recall that we were much better in the 2nd half after he had been subbed off playing Djuric and Abraham up front.

Recent good performances?

Yeah first half against Derby, second half against Rotherham. We did alright against Sheff Weds as well. There's not many to choose from but Tomlin has been absent for them.

Is it a coincidence that all of our recent good performances have been without Lee Tomlin?

The way I see it is the only way we can win this game is to keep a clean sheet. If we concede 1 we will concede 3. I've never seen a team's heads collectively drop so much after conceding goals. Finger crossed Newcastle get frustrated and start making errors.

I am hopeful. This team is much different to the one who blew it last time. Also, maybe (and it's a big maybe) we've finally learned from our mistakes. COYR!!

Commentator on Player - "It might well be attack against defence... which is fine because we have a 2 0 lead" - assume he wasn't at Derby then?!? 

Have a feeling we are going to turn up today...

What happens next is anyone's guess!
