M5

Hard match to call. Looks like NUFC at full strength bar 2/3. Some much needed creativity back with the return of HBA...

Heres hoping we will not persist with the long ball tactics we have employed most of the season so far and keep the ball on the floor for a while!

1:1 draw for me

The_Kew_Tour

Going to go for Fulham. Think they could win this by couple.

bazual

Delighted to see both Ba and Santon after hobbling off in the last match. Have been impressed with Anita's performance in the last couple of games so possibly a chance to get something out of this tonight.

This was a big game in our season last year when we went one up with Guthrie and half time and ended up losing 5-2 so hopefully a better performance this year.

Hoping for a 1-2

Anyone

Fancy Fulham here. Have a little bet on Fulham and Berbatov to score.

cadete

how does guti do it? on tonight again, what does pardew see in the lad, he just has not been good enough and provides no product at all, should be starting perch or bigi in his place

Another poor ball from him. He's gone IMHO

Poor start once again

bazual

Our first attack, a long ball attempt up to Ba. Oh dear!!!!

cadete

santon amd benny on the left wing some attacking talent there but defending .......

M5

Long balls and Cisse continually off side,normal service resumed

bazual

poor ball there but we are starting to knock it about a bit and settle down, similar to the Wigan game so far.

M5

Studs up knee high challenge from berba there....

M5

What a ball from HBA :eek:

bazual

Great ball from HBA

M5

Aghhhh, ba went to far forward

M5

This is better

Max Power

That Newcastle jersey is horrendous.

cadete

big improvement tonight again, i know its early doors but some nice passing and look quite good in the last third, and trying to keep it on the ground alot more than usual

Edit what was williamson at!

M5

and there is the Achilles heel

bazual

that was just a shocking attempt at offside

Max Power

Jammy goal

M5

LOL, figures poxxed

bazual

Balls anyway. changing prediction 4-1 Fulham

M5

Time to do what a NUFC Pardew side has never done, come from behind

bazual

Tiote you muppet

M5

Concede one and we fall to pieces, well done Krul, should be 2

cadete

tbf we look ok and are playing well i dont think its over at all if we keep doing what we were doing and cut out the bad mistakes

We look dreadful at the back.

klose

Should be 2-0, berba should have slotted that one away.

Heads have dropped. We have stopped pressing since the goal. A team with fragile confidence. They will be aware of the awful stats, no away wins this season, and never coming from behind to win under Pardew.

Cisse offside again, christ man

The black Pippo Inzaghi!

Fulham's first goal in 5 hours of play

M5

ben arfa has received 2 balls since KO. GIVE HIM THE FCUKING BALL!!!!!!

bazual

Cisse just doesn't belong on the right and should be up front if on the pitch at all. Cisse off at half time switch HBA to the right and move Jonas to left back with Santon left wing. Get Marveaux on in Jonas's position lets pass this ball for a change.

cadete

haugeland nutmegs williamson in our box! unbelievable the whole league must be wetting themselves coming up against him at cb

Moneymaker

We really are abysmal.

100% agreed were just unbalanced with ba and cisse play 1 of them and be done with it

Looks like 442 :mad:

BArra

what a ball by HBA and guti ruins it with follow up

M5

And we are back to 4:4:2

Pardew dosent have a clue what to do...

Moneymaker

The amount of easy chances we give up due to losing the ball is almost comical.

M5

Newcastle all over the shop. Players running 20 yards with no tackle...

bazual

Riise had about 5 minutes there to pick a pass there, come on wheres the pressing. Will be jammy goal if we equalise

M5

Have we hit 300 corners without a goal yet?

BArra

that throw in just landed into the outskirts of the newcastle box, no challenge on fulham player, just charged through to inside of the box

tiote is having a shocker aswell

Max Power

What a header that was from Collocini, deserved a goal.

bazual

Some header, deserved a goal.

Moneymaker

Did we almost score from a set-piece? :eek:

And whats with schwartzer pressure him on those clearances

M5

That should be a free out Ref, backed in
