Jags is feeling old...
Have to give Newcastle credit for that 2nd half, they came out and fought for the shirt.
can't argue with the result though, we carried threat throughout the whole match.
Though Newcastle where very lucky to score 2 goals tonight
A wonder strike and a cock up in our box, Apart from that they were held off to long shots
Us on the other hand should have added at least one more to the three we already had
We played fine in the second half, should have scored one or two more and weathered their storm well. The last goal was all arse, although Howard should have covered it.
Three points, a good showing and still with plenty to improve on. Good times.
Yep, and Pardew got his substitutions right which shored them up. But I'm still annoyed that I'm left feeling relieved that we didn't blow it, which really, I shouldnt!
Poor second half. Really poor. Slightly worrying that we can't seem to keep up high standards for more than half a match.
Overall, we delivered the minimum requirement, but promised so much more. Made up with the first half, but tonight we gave them way too many chances. They weren't without chances first half either, it must be noted.
I would like to and do reckon we'll learn to keep our performance levels high for longer as we move forward though.
Big test at City. We've got to tighten the [Poor language removed] up for that Roberto.
Made a decent one from Ben Arthur at the end of the first half.yeah, i mean howard didn't actually make a save did he?
"Yes, it was fantastic to make my debut at home, i was going to go for 8 goals tonight but didn't feel it was neccesary as Newcastle are **** and got lucky with their goals, i'm now going to celebrate in the brick and i'll let your birds snort beak off me dick if neccesary, inabit ked."
