Newcastle (A) | Wed 27th Sept | EFL Cup | Post Match Thread

[Dereck Jeffries 3 wd]

Looks like Howe took a leaf out of Cooper's book and told his players to kick the shit out of us at the start of the second half, sending on that scouse **** Gordon to start it off.

It seems like an effective tactic, particularly when the bent officials are happy to play their part in it. It's obvious that Pep knows what's going on here!

Good to see that I am not on my own with my feelings about Gordon, I have always thought he is a dirty horrible little ……..

How predictable

Theres some very sick people out there. How anyone can wish that is beyond me.

We got beat and move on.

The worrying development this week is that the rags got behind Harry Maguire and Bluemoan scapegoated Kalvin Phillips. Make of that what you want.

I think the lads will bounce back against Wolves and I’m glad we rested several key players.

no rags I know got behind slabhead, all wanted rid of….

Put that game to bed and move on. Not at our best but that’s symptomatic of the amount of changes made. Get off our players backs, they’re pulling the shirt on and doing their best, regardless of whether we believe they’re good enough or not. Pep clearly thinks they’re good enough and that will do for me. Some of our ‘support’ drives me to distraction. We’re one City family and we should act like that. We certainly did when we were at our worst and we absolutely should be now that we’re in dreamland. Keep the faith. CTID

You obviously don’t know all those that were at the swamp on Tuesday night. I’m loathed to give any credits to the rats but it is what it is.

I normally don’t look at player ratings, but I looked at a few for this game. On one site, Gvardiol and Phillips shared the worst rating of the team (4). And on another Akanji had the worst rating of the team (5). Seemed harsh for the two defenders? Should I be ignoring these sites and get my hot takes here?!?

Think Gvardiol gave ball away for their first half chance? Apart from that was okay

I couldn’t just do a like for this @Tim of the Oak , you are so correct in your middle paragraph. We need to support and keep behind our lads. We may think it’s ok, it’s in our own forum but, the same way some read other teams forums, they read ours!
Plus I’ve just been on FB and the vitriol on there is terrible. :-(

My mate was at the match, he spent most of the game texting me saying how shit Grealish was, mind you he used to say the same about Gundog. If they play for us, then get behind them, we’ve enough hate from other teams fans and the media, we don’t need it from our own.

Don't understand what sky were going on about with the 'if you would have seen the sides at the beginning of the game you wouldn't have give Newcastle a chance'. City had at best a scratch team out there. Pep more or less said before the game that the League Cup this season isn't a priority . His team selection reflected that.

He was crap last night though.

Unfortunately wasn’t at the swamp on Tuesday, unable to get a ticket….
