Match Threads Newcastle vs Spurs

[spursville]

Udogie is playing, that at least gotta be worth a chuckle

If he had been out with Davies replacing him then the pre-match meltdown on here would have been even worse!

Although I do like that not even the PL know what the hell is wrong with Richi.

 

[Johnny J]

Why are we the only team in the league to have injuries.

Oh.

Right, but literally no one has said that we're the only club to have injuries.

 

[Romulus]

Attack Burns and Krafth!

Shite center backs

Maybe not, but the whinging has been pretty strong about this specific injury. All teams have them, it's why we have a squad.

 

[fecka]

I'm rarely confident when we play against Newcastle and with how open we are this can go either way, but I expect us to cause their back line plenty of problems.

 

[mil1lion]

It just lacks CB/LB cover mostly and another top attacker due to Richy never being fit.

It’s better and deeper than last season.

For now Davies will cover LCB 4th CB and Spence likely LB.

Not ideal but we might be ok to get by.

I reckon Gray plays more at centre back than Davies. He's just going to have the legs for a higher line. Plus we have plenty of depth in central midfield. I think Davies is going to be largely left back cover.

 

[Mr Pink]

Still think 3-2 us....

 

[DiscoD1882]

Still no spurs chat?

 

[Jolmaster]

To be fair they have absolutely annihilated us in recent times. I’m pretty sure they would do the same for us had it been reversed.

Anyway, law of averages n all that, think it will be a much closer game today.

Fair point, just hoping we beat them and the smiles are wiped off the pundits faces

No change from sky I see, the anti-spurs narrative continues. Do we really need to see all the goals conceded by us in the last 2 games there

...or start watching at 13:29:55 and ignore the drivel.

Oh yea didn’t think about Gray, that could work

 

[marion52]

All our fans who have gone up there are brave, after two beatings the last two seasons.
Kudos to them.

Fingers crossed for a better result today

 

[Pellshek]

Seeing those ranked masses of Geordie fans at SJP, I always think: Where were you when you were shit?

 

[Romulus]

Exactly this. Lankshear is also injured so all 3 of our specialist strikers are out at the same time.

literally after week 1

We did well at home last season but SJP definitely hasn’t always been a happy hunting ground.

Andy Hinchcliffe on co-coms

 

[Romulus]

[muppetman]

Hope Biss does well today and still has something to prove.

COYS!

 

[Stamford]
