Newcastle v Fulham, match day thread....

[JoeBartramFFC]

Newcastle are there for the taking, keep it goalless going past the hour then the right subs could swing this in our favour. Berbatov has been poor and seems to be playing 2 seconds behind the rest of our side.

taarabt on for bent. berba up front with taarabt behind. win garanteed

[itombomb]

Sidwell literally only knows how to pass backwards

And it takes him forever to do it, so the people he passes to, have men on them.

First on Match Of The Day boys and girls! Woooo!

[the nutflush]

We had one goal attempt in the first half.  Weak as piss.  Could someone tell that fat bastard Berba to run every now and then?  He looks like a 40something boxer having his 120th fight.   Just sub him if he cant be assed and put Tarrabt on.

Got in late... I guess it's been a bad start from Berbatov aha.

Lucky sod. I honestly can't remember the last time I walked such a poor half of football. Awful stuff.

[God The Mechanic]

This is possibly the worst game of football I've ever seen.

[Lighthouse]

The first half is a perfect reason why few fans want to travel to watch the club. Not awful but just slow and yawn making. Exciting players are asked to defend. No quick breaks. But there is hope that Berbatov picks a place to play and actually controls the ball and Bent can see more of the ball.

I would love us to go for this. But I just can't see us even trying until we are a goal down.

I thought Sunderland was bad.  Didnt think it could get worse.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz best league in the world ya right. Christ if we only looked like we were bothered, any then some ask why we have "poor" following! Do me a favour. :dft007:

[WhiteJC]

its not just our game, all of the other half-times are 0-0

[Alternative Right Back]

...is it just blind faith to believe that the lack of pace in the first half is simply a cunning plan to conserve energy and come out all guns blazing after the hour mark?

[Sammyffc]

in all honesty im quite enjoying it , its interesting to see us pass the half way line running with the ball. a rare sight

[Whitewash]

I really don't think it's as bad as any of you are making out. Berbatov has been poor, I grant you, but other than that we've kept the ball nicely, had them under pressure for a 10 minute spell and have just lacked a bit of urgency. The introduction of someone like Taarabt could easily give us the cutting edge we need and turn the game around for us. Keep your hair on

Parker starting to prove my small doubt wrong, really happy with that. Really enjoying him.

Berba omg... Tbh. his attitude makes me sick - he can be brilliant and awesome watching but he can also just kill us.  Taarabt on for Berba.

Missing Kasami's interceptions, heart, work rate and runs to the box.

Stockdale looking good.

Bent is at least in and around the box, one of our biggest problems last season. Berba way to deep once again, stay between our cm and Bent, we do not need you to create every play, just to be a perfect threat to free up Bent and be dangerously.


COYW!!! Get us another 3 pts..!
