Thanks @Rayvin I've never had any urge to do this until now. Might even send a spring roll conversion through once they're up. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have apartment blocks over there that skip out the numbering of the 4th floor. And the 13th. You're also not meant to stand chopsticks up in your rice like rugby goalposts because it looks like the chinese character for the number 4. That said, I can't see the 4 on our strip I know its very unlucky to walk under a black cat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44930 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Settle in for some positivity. Newcastle need 1.3 points per game from the rest of the season to get to 40 points. If you managed that over the course of a season, it's the equivalent of having a 49-50 point season. We finished 12th last year with 45 and Villa finished 11th with 55. So you've basically got to have a rest-of-season somewhere near as good as those two teams. That is categorically not out of the question with a manager that actually knows how to coach and a transfer window. AND 40 points is probably more than is required. So...... 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the fact that we have a run of tough games prior to January is a good thing as we'll have a chance to strengthen prior to playing the lesser sides, where we'll be more likely to pick up the requisite points. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21937 Posted December 19, 2021 Author Share Posted December 19, 2021 We’re doomed. Needed to beat Brentford and Norwich. We need to win every other game from here on in.

Alex 35095 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Today changes nowt. We were never getting anything out of today’s match. We’re 3 points off safety. Obviously we need to have a very good January transfer window and we’re in a heap of bother but it’s not a done deal. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17283 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 We need at least another 25 points, which is at least 7 wins. It's not going to happen iyam regardless of who we sign next month 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamTaylor5 882 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Games like this just show how bad our squad really is. I still don't think we cannot stay up. I'm starting to accept how many new players we need. I did think Howe could do it with the current lot but even my optimistic outlook has taken a battering. How Clark can continue to make the mistakes when he has a golden second chance but Lascelles is next to him so who can blame him? Today was painful even if it was against Manchester City. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33266 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Let's be honest, we've just got far too many who are dogshit. January needs to be a brilliant window to have a chance. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
