It's interesting in retrospect , we did pass well, we could have had more on targets shot with more poise, better positioned forwards , better quality final ball
Arters foul in my view was the same as the red card they had.
Zohore cannot head a ball and in some cases looks scared too.
How did the empty seats look on TV?
Watching MoTD at the moment, the front 4-6 rows of the Bob Bank are probably 40% empty.
Funny seeing Warnock, who was whinging about the PL last season, now whinging about the Championship and not missing it. Linekar said "Not a great game" (is he trolling you Mike?) .
That was my opinion too, I only watched about half an hour live on TV then decided to switch channels. Only just watching MoTD because I have a day off work.
On Sky drinking Guinness in Tenby , it's a better game than MOTD and when I watched live in Saturday amongst a crowd of 75 thousand it went on longer?
As I watched the game I was wondering what a difference Troy Deeney could have made. And at the end of it, despite the penalty save, it still felt like 2 points dropped.
Give us a feckin chance mun. We’ve only played 2 games. I really didn’t think the moaning and groaning would start this soon.
Arter's foul was not the same. Arter's was a trip, shin to shin contact, not dangerous but a definite yellow. Their player caught Murphy on the back of his calf with his studs, which could have caused serious injury.
2 games in and the doom and gloom merchants are out.
New midfield playing in an alien way ie passing !
Ken only passed fit on the morning of the game.
Loads of positives.
The one on Murphy could have broken his leg. Arters wouldnt have. Kenedys was violent conduct. One was violent/dangerous play and the other was a professional foul. How you can say Hayden was playing the ball is beyond me - he had to go through the man to get it and was nowhere near it.
I know it could have broken his leg and as I said it was a challenge he didn’t need to make but I do think he had the intention of playing the ball as bad as the tackle was/looked. Arter’s was not a good challenge, he was frustrated by the player skipping past him and he just booted him around the knee area, when he could have just clipped his ankle. That’s why I think it was a red card.
If Kenedy's is violent conduct then so is Arter's challenge. Arter is nowhere near the ball and kicks Joselu across the knee! Just because it doesn't technically happen "off the ball" (like Kenedy's) it doesn't make it any less of a terrible challenge. The bias is astounding.

I enjoyed the game and thought we were a lot better than week before . Still not creating enough in front of goal but hope that will come as new signings settle in.
Newcastle managed the game well once they went down to 10 men , seemed to win majority if not all the free kicks after the sending off , slowed down game at every opportunity . Not sure how much our substitutions helped Newcastle either and/or whether it was Arter having to back off due to his yellow card ?
We need to be more clinical in future , I am sure we will be practicing set pieces this week which on the whole were disappointing.
Big game Saturday (as I know they all are BUT ) this is a chance to go 4 points clear of Huddersfield and maybe 1 or 2 other teams
