I was at the game yesterday and Between for around 40 minutes the Park was practically silent, apart from a few cockneys in the top tier who never shut up, and who can blame them. Tottenham were flattered to be honest by our weak midfield performance. SOLANO.....what the fu*k happened man? Did he play one good ball all match, nope. Did Gary Speed, nope. Did Claurence Acuna, nope (but does he ever)!

I thought after we went back to the regular 4 at the back formation, our 2 central defenders played exceptionally well. But I dunno what Bobby was thinking about playing a 3 centyral defenders at the start of the match. That decision probably cost us the match.

Then the second half comes around and the noise creeps up, and so does the performance. Well I was thinkiung to my self. Are we getting better? Or are Tottenham just lieing back, I think the second is closer to the truth. Then Bellamy is through on goal, one on one, he must score......nope! The robert drives a low shot in, defelected out, comes to dabizas, wide.....The dabizas again, a header, saved! They are the 3 chances that should of but didn't win us the macth. And you have to ask your self, why didn't they go in? Because we can't finish! The leicister game was the same. That should of been 5-0 after the first half but we couldnt finish.

Then the other day, Robbie Fowler rumours circulate. Leeds are bidding for him supposidly. He is one of the best finishers in the Premiership, and wha does The Mags need, a finisher! 10 million would be a snip for a player of his callabeur. Put a bid in Bobby! Before its too late!

well it's sad really :( :(
Solano has been very disapointing this season !!!
he could and maybe should have won us the derby match v Sunderland ...
and hasn't put in a good performance since the Leicestre game.

Well, all these Newcastle chances only came by in the last 10 mins of the match.

If they played the way from the start, they would have a chance.

its the phrase that i seem to be saying a lot recently..... "A 20 minute performance".

Newcastle vs Troyes = 20 minute performance (that match byu the way was one the more exciting i've ever seen)

Newcastle vs Tottenham = 20 minute performance

and I hate to say it but for once I am going to compare the mackhems to the mags.

Sunderland vs Charlton = 20 minute performance

Sunderland vs We got beat of Bolton = 20 minute performance


Are these "20 minute performances" becoming fashionable or something? Because if they are Newcastle needs to go against the trends. I think they need to remember that a football match is for 90 minutes, not just 20!

But aganist MU, Newcastle performed for the whole match. Well, if only they do it in every match... Anywhere, Bobby Robson should have stick to his 4-4-2 system instead of changing it to 3-5-2 in trying to nullified Poyet.

Guess the plan misfire...
