Match Threads Newcastle vs Spurs - Match Thread

[Col_M]

Still not inconceivable we’ll get 5th place and then we can retroactively be ‘Spursy’ as a result of the Man City CAS verdict

Don’t do it to yourself.

 

[King of Otters]

I thought we were just as disjointed tonight as we have been since the restart, the only difference in the end was that we converted the few chances we created.

Not convinced we were that solid either. Constantly backing off, often resulting in a Newcastle shot.

 

[hughy]

Going to be annoying if that Bournemouth result costs us.

I was watching them against City. A 0-0 doesn't seem the worst result in the world in hindsight, as they seem rejuvenated despite being on the brink of relegation. In truth they deserved a point tonight.

Loved the break for the third, Lamela absolutely busting his gut and determined to make something happen. Nice.

 

[Phomesy]

Any raised arms will be a pen.

yes but he only raises it because Wood's going for a dangerous and unrealistic overhead kick.

I'd be fuming if that happened to us.

But I'll take it.

 

[rupsmith]

Tough penalty. That guy was kind of protecting his face.

Think there is too much “by the book” bs going on. There has to be a rationale or reasonableness to the decision. Poor stuff from Football leadership.

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

Cant argue with a 1-3 win away.

Defense is looking solid.

 

[oskathegobshite]

Lamela will always have some kind of impact off the bench. I would keep him around another season personally. Especially if additional subs stays and especially with the way Jose manages games

 

[mark87]

That's a harsh decision on Wolves tbf - the high boot makes Doherty raise his arm.

But I'll take it!

Foot was no where near the man, arm way out in front of him. Definitely a penalty.

 

[Col_M]

That replay of Kane’s first goal. Bruce will be livid that they allowed him a free header.


Can’t have too many complaints on the 3rd as they were chasing the game.

Since lockdown:

P7 W4 D2 L1

GF 10
GA 6

14 points from a possible 21

Given that two of those draws should arguably have easily been wins, things don’t look quite as horrendous as many on here like to pretend...

 

[jondy1]

Couldn’t watch match today unfortunately but that’s a great win at Newcastle

 

[Shadydan]

Don’t do it to yourself.

Let the man dream about qualifying about the promised land of the Europa League.

 

[Col_M]

And Erik ran 78m for the 3rd goal. Great effort.

 

[Phil_2.0]

10 points from 4 games in 10 days. Conceded 2 Scored 6.

Hope its a platform for us to build from, would like to see more ball dominance but the spirit the team has shown since Sheffield has been excellent.

It's not been pretty nor the Spurs way, but it has been effective given how we were playing.

 

[KingKay]

Great result, clinical again.

 

[King of Otters]

He’s the perfect attacker to bring off the bench to help close the game out.

Holds onto the ball when he receives it and works his arse off defensively.

 

[freeeki]

I hope and pray that one day you stop longing for the thrilling series of defeats which was Poch’s final year with us

 

[cjsimba]

Lamela falling over again when he shoots. I genuinely don’t remember any time he’s had a shot without falling over.

Not a criticism, just find it funny!
