Who watched the extended sky sports highlights? There's one thing I can say and that is that Rob Styles shouldn't ref a newcastle game. He's given 3 pens against newc this season, NONE of which were pens. Today's game example. David Edgar got the ball and Roberts or McCarthy drops to the ground like a sack of spuds.

I feel so annoyed that Newcastle's inability to even force a comeback after the pen, its just ridiculous. Joey Barton showed quality when he came on, and I'm glad he shouted at Enrique who in fairness was dire today. Yet commentators and pundits are still biased calling barton a thug, when he's obviously right....

Nicky Butt's sending off.. What a load of crap basically. Didn't deserve first yellow, second I'd say so but still, Rob Styles shouldn't even be reffing the game, he's an absolute joke. Blackburn didn't deserve to win, they should have been buried in the first half. But same old newcastle, always missing chances.

Rant over

Edit: If mike ashley doesn't start sticking his fat hand in his pockets, there's gonna be a riot at St James' just like in the summer. Be warned Fat ash.

Oh well, only man city, a local derby and a trip to strugglers west brom.

Well at least Kinnear's got an extended contract out of the mess.



If the Toon survive i'll be amazed.In fact,if any North East team survive i'll be amazed.

How many chances will Southgate gate?I know he's well in with Gibson,but as a Manager he's useless.

I get the impression that Gibson is quite a stubborn bloke who is far too proud. Gareth Southgate says the right things and is a very humble and honest bloke but as a manager he lacks a lot. That said; sacking him at this stage I don't think is a very good idea at all.

Can't disagree with any of that

Face it lads, we are jinxed as a club. Somewhere, sometime something terrible happened at St James' and we are still paying for it. I now dread each match as I know heartache will follow.
Kinnear needs to learn to shut up. Each press conference is embarrassing as he talks of the inadequacies of the ref and not of his team.

[Beany31]

Kinnear needs lessons on tactics as well. gutierrez in ahead of Duff and Barton will play ahead of Butt next game, Barton and Guthrie are our best midfielders.

LuaLua is a quality young lad and should really play ahead of Zog who obviously doesn't want to play; hence running up the tunnel after the game.

We need a bit of luck and get a penalty or something ourselves, not the other way around.

[tomelli]

I agree. Zog should be allowed to leave as his heart, if it ever was, is nolonger on the Tyne. As an exile I am not looking forward to work tomorrow as my life will not be worth living when I get to work.
