It is frightening how little some people think of our own team, yes newcastle are good but they are fifth, yes they have lost just 2 at home all season but have drawn with the likes of wolves, yes they got a win last night against chelsea but that was against a chelsea side without its first choice centre backs and making six chages and with one eye on a cup final and they still relied on a couple of goals that he probably couldnt replicate if he tried a 1000 times. This is the same newcastle who shipped five to spurs and four to wigan, this is the same newcastle who we beat comfortably at home, this is the same newcastle who the vast majority of people tipped for relegation.
Yes they are having an outstanding season and we certainly should respect that they are but if we are giving their players respect lets show a bit to ours shall we, lets show respect to a striker who has scored 29 goals this season in his first season in english football lets show respect to a midfielder who has more assists than anyone in the league, lets show respect to a midfield powerhouse who runs past people as if they aint there, lets show respect to a defense who is the best defense in the premier league and lets show respect to a keeper that is more than likely going to take the golden gloves again.
Respect them certainly, fear them certainly not, they should be as worried about us and respect us just as we do them.
