Anderson and Minteh both scoring. Batten down the hatches.

Definitely not me.

"Why didn't Howe win 8 games in a row whilst also rotating our best players out?". Well that's bollocks. "Andrew you might as well shut this place down if I'm not allowed to say things like that!" Get in your ute, turn it thattaway, and KEEP DRIVING!

This is what happens when you let John Terry hump your missus without consequence. It festers.

Waaaaah the nasty man won't let our drivel go without criticism. WAAAAAH. Get fucked.

Easy. It was the right decision and a completely standard action. With the benefit of hindsight you might say "oh well it would be better if he hadn't kicked it THERE!" but it would still be completely standard to try to prevent the corner.

You pulled him up for trying to prevent a corner. FACT. UNTWISTED.

Ah so you're not talking about rotating, you're just talking about making subs earlier when the job is already done. Which would make very little difference cos Howe has done that where he could. What makes a difference is being able to bring the class lads ON at 70 minutes, not take them off. I just find it bizarre that we've got a load of wise after the fact drivel getting posted, including one of our best performers getting pulled up for the 100% standard "crime" of trying to prevent a corner. They've been fucking outstanding recently. There doesn't have to be this "if only they'd done what I think they should have done", "this whole tiredness thing is nonsense, I just don't buy it," post mortem. Just take the loss ffs. It's fine.

I mean the point is we don't really have a squad. It's a massive drop off in ability across most positions once you start to rotate outside of the first 11. There's no way we came into this with 8 wins on the bounce if Howe had spent the last 8 games sharing the load amongst the squad. And no one was telling Howe to rotate players when we were keeping winning. We got beat. We were long overdue getting beat. Just let them get beat and we go again against Southampton next weekend. It's like AFTV on here today.

NAH BLUD. NAH MAN. THESE MAN ARE SCRUBS BLUD.

2.26 to 0.79xG in their favour. They were deserved winners but they weren't deserved 4-1 winners. Also, at least the manager and the players are saying the same themselves post match. Second best all across the park, couldnt cope with their intensity, etc. It's a blip.

Disallowed! Stick your BANTZ up your hoops!

Looking forward to the absolute BANTZ that this will generate.

Fucking Arsenal.

Arsenal.

Aye I gave up watching Liverpool games in the hope they'd fuck up. They only do it when nobody's watching.

It was 2-1 when I went in for my massage. Imagine my surprise...

Tiredness explains literally everything in your post.

We also had won the last 8 matches in a row. Let them have a bad day. And the recovery time absolutely matters. We've been away at Spurs, Arsenal, and Man United in this run too. It all adds up.

This little fucking weasel picking on the rock bottom 6 point heroes.

Well lads, I can't recommend match of the day tonight, but I can ABSOLUTELY recommend the Ishga Invigorating Massage at Seaham Hall. Wonderful. It's as if Newcastle never even played today.

Their manager is an excellent tactician mind. I don't buy any shite about us thinking we're better than these or anything. They've snuffed out everything and Isak hasn't had a sniff and they've been clinical in front of goal.

Christie and Cook could both be off by now. Cook for two yellows and Christie for finally receiving a yellow when he should have had at least two.

LET HIM WALK.
