Newcastle Thread - 2022/23

I can't see you dropping another point. your toughest game might be against Chelsea as they have some good players and at some point you would expect them to put in a good performance, they might also see you as a scalp to take. You've got them at home which helps and you will have got your semi-final out of the way by then.

You've got too much for both Brighton and Brentford, even if they are away from home. Leeds and Everton will not get close to hurting you.

It’s so obvious that you’ve not watched your team competing for everything, either ever or not for a very long time. It doesn’t work how you think it works in a run in when you’re playing every 3 days and you’re shattered mentally and physically after huge games and then having to go away to teams fighting for survival. The games you think are easy simply aren’t. Absolutely no chance we don’t drop points in the run in imo.

We'll be right up for that and the players are taking one game at a time and they usually find a way to win other than against Villa when we were rubbish and everything they tried came off, it was also our third away game in a row so we were travelling or resting rather than working with the players.

Everybody at the club will want to beat Arsenal, the crowd and players will all be up for it and I think it might just be too much for a fragile Arsenal to handle. Howe has the players taking it one game at a time and I really expect that the players will feel that they deserve every point for the remainder of the season, even if we don’t get them all. It’s been a long season where we are close to finishing and determination will play its part.

We’ve won 8 out of the 9 games we’ve played since we lost 2-0 to you and that form is absolutely fantastic. We need to get the first goal against Arsenal to calm any nerves, I think we’ll be fine even if we go a goal behind as we have done too often recently because we seem to find a little bit extra.

If they don’t beat Chelsea, there’s a fair chance you could catch them. If they fail to beat Chelsea, you’ll trounce them. They’re in the CL. They might hit the beach..

I don't think we've ever competed for everything at this stage of the season in my life-time, if ever so you've got that one spot on. I just think your squad is so good and professional that you'll turn up when you have to and no other team in the country are able to do that. You can win a game in a few minutes and let the rest of the game play out.

If this is their home kit next season I will enjoy the piss boiling.

I really hope they get the CL place. I can't guarantee PiGMOL will allow it mind.

I would have loved that to wind people up and it looks quite good but we've been told our shirt sponsor is not from Saudi, people are saying that it might be this:

I think we could drop points maybe at Brighton but I think it will be all over by then.

No, you're thinking of zebras.

Agree all American owners should be banned !

They should stick to their love affair with their guns and poking their noses into other countries problems. Leave our football alone.

Absolutely.
We don't tell 'em how to play rounders, or whatever they call it over there....

Fun fact of the day which always upsets Newcastle and Sunderland supporters

Newcastle originally played in red and white, but most teams did. So when Newcastle played away from home they borrowed Northumberland county's kit, black and white stripes, so not to clash

They borrowed it so often Newcastle changed the colour of their home kit
