Newcastle United (H) - Sat 4th March, 12:30 | Pre-Match Thread

That's 1 game against an abject team after a run of poor results. They beat Villa courtesy of an offside goal and just about scraped past Leicester

That's what wins titles though. Those games you are crap but scrape a 1 nil win.

Every game is a big game when you’re chasing down a five point lead. Still lots of points to play for but we’ve also got to watch those hyped-up scummy bastards behind us. I’m going with a 4-1 win for the boys.

I don't particularly enjoy 12:30 starts and it always seems a bit of a slog for the team. Needs a good atmosphere tomorrow to hopefully give the players a boost and get the energy up. Hopefully with the train chaos yet again and the early start, its a good atmosphere and the players respond.

Mahrez to start ?

Always love to give the Barcodes a reality check, suspect this will be a tight game initially but they aren't exactly prolific so if we don't go all "Spursy" I think we're in the form to do them, again.

On the tenuous basis Kun used to get a hat-full against this lot I'd be hoping Earling will continue with this.

We need to give them a big rendition of “you let your country down” after last Sunday. Shitbags.

Also, don’t go behind or we’ll be watching them take goal kicks and throw ins for an hour, as well as their time outs when Pope pretends he’s injured.

Popes suspended. Something to do with some choirboys I think.

Don’t worry mate, the ref will add on 2 mins at the end of the 1st half and 4 mins at the end of the 2nd to account for the 25 mins of time that’s routinely wasted against us.

Oh and he’ll book one of their players for time wasting after 85 minutes as a deterrent
