[Archived] Newcastle United Preview

[American]

I think after the played against Blyth as well it looks like Bunn is our new number 2, shame for Brown in a way who never did a lot wrong but Bunn does look good and has a great potential. Brown might well leave before the end of the window.

He's gone once the Beattie money comes through to Sheffied United, according to Nicko.

[rovers1993]

we're looking shaky currently.. lets hope we can come good sooner than later.

andrews clearing off the line... very very close to conceding!

[RibbleValleyRover]

Keith Andrews clears the ball off the line.

Newcastle all over us at the moment.

[rovers1993]

we're just lumping it everywhere, no passes what so ever. we need to string some passes together.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Pathetic performance so far, being outplayed by a @#/?, injury plagued Newcastle side. Haven't even tested their rubbish defence...

[DeadlyDirk]

Not the performance I was hoping for so far, I'll be happy if we can make it to half time 0-0, regroup and then come out a lot better in the second half, we'll need to.

[colbert]

considering we had two weeks off, should be storming this game

[rovers1993]

emerton is sooo frustrating.. we need a decent right winger and emo needs to go back to right back! this is sooo frustrating to watch!

[RibbleValleyRover]

Wonder if its because we haven't played for a while? We rested a lot of our main players for the Blyth game and of course the Fulham game was called off.

Lots of wayward passing and there is a lack of communication and organisation between the players.

Going to get beat if we play like this in the second half...

[Eddie]

No, it's because we aren't good enough.

[rovers1993]

i think it is because lack of action.. i think second half will be much better once our players get a wallocking from bfs. we need dunny on.

and he's on now.

[RibbleValleyRover]

No, it's because we aren't good enough.

But we are a better side than Newcastle...

[Dan]

Dunny's got a big beard!

[emerton]

the positives is that its HT, we can't play much worse and were not losing...

Would like to see more effective ball use from midfield in the 2nd half.

Dunny's beard has been the highlight so far...

[67splitscreen]

Enter Captain Pugwash.

[Rovers in America]

I barely recognized Dunny. He's more than misplaced his razor.

[Rover Down Under]

Has the economic crisis affected razor production?

[spencey7]

Would like to see more effective ball use from midfield in the 2nd half.

I wouldn't hold your breath - Surely that is in antithesis of Allardyce football?

Grim performance.

[PAFELL]

Any live broadcast?

I don't understand why people who cannot get to the game do not subscribe to roversworld!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[krislu]

But we are a better side than Newcastle...

Not according to the PL table.

[DeadlyDirk]

I barely recognized Dunny. He's more than misplaced his razor.

Dunny has taken every precaution possible to avoid any more injuries this season, the last thing he needs is a nasty shaving cut ruling him out for another 3 weeks or worse still dropping a bottle of after shave on his foot. I admire his dedication to the cause.

[Eddie]

I don't understand why people who cannot get to the game do not subscribe to roversworld!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm subscribed but can't get it to work as I only have a mac at the moment...

[Mr. E]

No central midfield - no control - no game.

A problem we should have been working on from the first of January, but...

[last-minute-win]

I barely recognized Dunny. He's more than misplaced his razor.

I saw him coming on and thought 'who the [...] is he'!

[Esulx]

Live table puts us bottom with the Baggies winning.
