Rodwell out with a groin strain according to Rich Sharpe

I wonder what he's been doing in all that spare time.

Hope you're right. 

I go for a 1-1 draw

[skous18]

Strong team, a bit poor of Mowbray not to start Rothwell and Brereton but as long as we win it doesn’t really matter who plays thou

You get a feeling about tons of our matches. You appear to be about 90% wrong when you have them (I may be being generous).

[gumboots]

Sitting up at the back of the stand. Forgot my binoculars! ? 

[G Somerset Rover]

Oh shut up Mercer for the love of God ‘license to print money’. At least you’re doing it in a cup game I suppose. 

[philipl]

That is one heck of a bench for Newcastle!

[bluebruce]

I hate our tactic for kick offs.

Nuttall just scores for the under 23s so isn’t in the squad 

This makes a mockery of those that think Brereton should be put in the U23s for a while.

It seemingly doesn't count.

[Husky]

Calling Dr Vane.

[Mr. E]

Our defence is just paper thin, Raya is completely exposed.

Why the fook are we playing in the sodding yellow crap once again?

[G Somerset Rover]

Dack having a stinker so far - passing way off.

[Gone to seed]

Danny G has got to do better than that!!

Contractual for so many games a season?

[Cherry Blue]

Hanley off (red) at Norwich v Portsmouth

 

[bluebruce]

Wtf Benno

[Guest]

Anyone else watching on bet365? All you can hear is Mowbray screaming for the defence to get up, it's great. Far from the half-arsed manager some claim him to be.

[bluebruce]

Bennett having a mare so far, just like against WBA. Dack not at his sharpest, seems to also have a little knock. Think he may not come out second half.

Damn that was close! Dack actually got pushed away from connecting with the header.

Should have scored from a Charlie special corner!

[Tom]

What a corner from Charlie no idea how Dack missed that and then a superb through ball From Trav

[Mr. E]

We've done well enough so far, Newcastle fairly tame, question is which team will step it up second half.

[Paul Mellelieu]

Decent half in a low-key affair.  Travis showing excellent touches to get past his man and set up attacking play.

[philipl]

Rovers slightly shading possession but this one is wide open. Travis is clearly showing Premier League class as is Dack even though he is not playing at his best.

Hope Nyambe is fit enough to come on in place of Bennett.
