Darren Eales (Newcastle CEO) on why NUFC may need to sell player(s) in the future to grow:

“If you are churning players you create more headroom. We have seen lots of examples of this elsewhere:...

Isak would be perfect for Arsenal. He’s perfect for us too and the Arse don’t have the resources to sign him. They’re not the force of old, for all they’ve had a resurgence in the last 18 months.

It does seem as though FFP has us hamstrung at the moment. Of all the valuable players we could sell to make some wiggle room in the transfer market, I do think Bruno is the ‘obvious’ one. He has the...

This is why we should be careful with threads like this. Innocent until proven guilty, mackem or not. Can’t even imagine how miserable the last 18 months have been for him after being accused of...

Looking forward to sitting and watching it again at some point this afternoon.

Christ I’m rough today. The game itself was surprisingly easy. We cruised through the game in second gear. I genuinely thought they’d put up more of a fight.

It’s a shame that none of the old mackem posters visit anymore. There were never many of them but I thought that most were good craic. The likes of AndyJ, Linetrash, Ritchie, Staples. I was a...

Howay then, what are we thinking? We have plenty of excuses with injuries, suspensions and fatigue. However, we have a significant class advantage and should win the game. I’m going…

2-0...

Not sure what the problem was with the mackems rightly laying down the red, should i say black and white, carpet when footballing royalty comes to town. Surely they must accept their place in our...

You could certainly argue that we’ve missed ASM. However, the reality is we’ve missed Harvey Barnes a lot more. As others have already mentioned, ASM was electric on his day and a real entertainer....

Personally I think it’s clear that Hall isn’t ready for first team football at left back. He was originally a central midfielder before making his Chelsea debut at left back. I think people tend to...

To be clear, I’m not calling for Eddie to go. I was stating that if we lose our next 3 games he will be under enormous pressure, both from the board and a fair section of the fanbase. I think the...

Highest ever expected goals against tonight. Midfield structure is not getting any better - it may actually be getting worse. Defence is all over the place. We started Dan Burn against Mo Salah. We...

Isak is seemingly just as injury prone. Can see us going for Ekitike on loan

We were a disgrace tonight. Pitiful effort. We were beaten before we took to the pitch.

He’s worth keeping around. He’s a leader on the pitch and rarely drops his head or downs tools like a few others have done recently

This was the first and only time I’ve watched us and doubted we put our all into the game. We were outfought in every department. Of course they’re tired but Man Utd aren’t afforded the same excuse....

Eddie’s position should not be in question. What he did last season wasn’t far short of a miracle and should be taken into consideration during this tough spell. He is not immune from criticism...

Barkley would be a terrible signing. Arrogant person who has to be the big fish in a small pond to perform to his best. Great player when he is the main man though.

Our midfield balance has been...

Despite his height, BDB is better at LB than CB - that is the reason why he’s spent the vast majority of his time in the top flight at LB. He also happens to be our best LB. Hall is a Wing Back and...

You mean Wednesday night’s exertions. If we had played on Tuesday we’d have seen out the game with all 3 points, such is the advantage of an extra day’s rest.

Agree that it’s a good point when...

Thanks for the Burnley view, Alf. I’m slightly surprised that the majority of your fans are expecting a heavy defeat. I think it will be relatively tight. I do think, however, that we should have...

“It won’t be 8 next Saturday afternoon”

We’re up for the challenge. See you Saturday 😉

I’m in the ‘hope he plays’ camp. I don’t expect us to win the Champions League (this year, anyway). Part of the fun is to take on the world’s best. I fancy us to smoke them either way. Atmosphere...

Lured me in with that title, GBruno. You know it’s been a top performance when you can’t find any negatives 😉.

A great day all round but i particularly enjoyed watching Elliott Anderson show he...
