As things stand we need a win to keep pace with Chelsea who won 4-2 at Aston Villa yesterday. However if you think that catching and overtaking Chelsea is a bit out of reach for us then another way of looking at it is to consider that a win would put us ten points clear of seventh placed Everton, and eleven points clear of eighth placed Liverpool.
In short a win would give us a stranglehold on sixth in the league and would give us the optimum chance of qualifying for Europe should results in the FA Cup fall in our favour. Even a draw wouldn’t be the end of the world when you consider our recent form against the Reds, but that is just being negative, or realistic, I forget…
Anyway, enough preamble. We’ve already had enough thanks to NUFC_stats fantastic stat-attack and my very own match preview, but if you haven’t already read them make sure you do so just so you can be armed with the stats and latest injury news ahead of the match.
Speaking of team news, it will be featured below in full when Big Dave updates it for you all as I’m at work as things stand. No rest for the wicked and all that… Unfortunately.
Howay the lads!
Newcastle: Krul; Simpson, Williamson, Perch, Gutierrez; Guthrie, Tiote, Cabaye; Ben Arfa, Cisse, Ba.

Aye – defending a lead is not something we do
Archie Brand(Quote)
Surely if Toonsy’s child is born today, the name must be Papiss 😉
MDS(Quote)
Right then team help the lad get a hat trick 😀
kimtoon(Quote)
remember keep it tight lads ffs
Big Dave(Quote)

richietoon(Quote)

Perch outstanding, great work from Willo too
Newkie(Quote)
Surely if Toonsy’s child is born today, the name must be Papiss 😉
——————
Or James would do quite well. Perchy you beauty
MDS(Quote)
How good has Perch been so far 😀
kimtoon(Quote)
yeah really pleased for Perch so far the lad has done well.
I really hope Cisse gets his hat-trick
Big Dave(Quote)
Perch is looking more and more like the ultimate utility player.
NorCal Toonfan(Quote)
Good chance for Gosling, come on lad!
Newkie(Quote)
come on Lads we need another so I can enjoy this game as I don’t know about anyone else, but im still nervous as
Big Dave(Quote)
Suarez you tw*t
kimtoon(Quote)
The Newcastle fans are chanting ‘Jose Enrique – we’re in the top six’ 😆 Brilliant
MDS(Quote)
Dave..aye, still nervy
richietoon(Quote)
For the old timer’s, James Perch is the new Graham Oates 😆 😆
TonyGreenSupreme(Quote)
Really want to see Papiss get a hat trick as he’s done so well today again .
kimtoon(Quote)
TGS…. ya’ll be talking to yourself with that name 😉 😆
richietoon(Quote)
love to see Ba grab one. He’s been so good lately without any goals to show for it
MDS(Quote)
That was never offside
kimtoon(Quote)
HBA with the assist again… clearly our pref three up fornt are HBA, Ba and cisse. when HBA plays well the team play well.
craig chisholm(Quote)
Im a bit pissed again now.
Are there any knackersacks who were slating those of us who said all we needed to do was switch to the 3 man midfield want to come on and tell us all how stupid we are or how ‘tactics are too hard for us plebs’.
Lololololol
Roflcopter
Ha
Gettin there Cisse you little beauty.
Pootle(Quote)
Strolla to hold the ball up feel a bit sorry for Cisse
Big Dave(Quote)
Seems a shame to take cisse off, but i guess we need to rest him? Meh.
Newkie(Quote)
NO , wanted to see a hat trick 🙁 Still Shola will hold the ball up nicely for us.
kimtoon(Quote)
MDS @ 185 yeah mate he deserves a goal as he has done everything else bar score
Big Dave(Quote)
Feel for Cisse but it is the smart move. As great a finisher as he is he doesn’t hold the ball up like Shola or run like Ba
MDS(Quote)
I hope they stick to this team now and don’t bring Kuyt on 👿
Big Dave(Quote)
How r we doing? How r we doing? God my nerves are shot to bits. It’s **** this when you can’t even listen to a radio commentary. And I’ve picked a bad time to pack in the tabs.
MrT76(Quote)
well in Perch
Big Dave(Quote)
How longs left? Do the ‘dippers even look like scoring?
MrT76(Quote)
Kuyt 👿
Big Dave(Quote)
Nice to see Carroll getting a good cheer – on his way off
Archie Brand(Quote)
Just hope its not another one of those Liverpool games of olde
Archie Brand(Quote)
Dave KUYT warming up I thought.
kimtoon(Quote)
Perch is bloody Paolo Maldini merged with Lothar Matheus today.
Joe(Quote)

Jon R(Quote)
Oh man I wish there was more than 10 mins left!
Jon R(Quote)
Would this be the end of Kenny Daglish? His record/points per game ratio has to be worse than Roy Hodgson’s right?
NorCal Toonfan(Quote)
LOL no subs left!!!! Jose in goal! This is madness
MDS(Quote)

Newkie(Quote)
