I agree Andy Carroll was MOM – but Enrique and Harps weren’t far behind him.
Encouraging display from Tamas Kadar too.
Still too much of the long ball “hump it and see” where invariably all that happened was we lost the ball and they came back at us – especially in the first half. But I suppose when you have a midfield that lacks pace……
Ugly, dour, but 3 points is 3 points.

I thought it was all about playing regular football that got you noticed, but i guess the ‘rules’ can always be over-looked for the Toon?

As long as we’re in the Championship, Harper doesn’t stand a chance.

Surely Harper is the best English keeper. There aren’t too many out there.

Not sure about Hughton’s ‘got our passing game back’ comment.

There is a distinct lack of passing in our team and we seem to be edging more and more to the long ball game. Especially when Caroll plays.

If Steve Harper has any chance of ever playing for England – last nights performance was certainly an eye catching one for anyone watching from the England set up.
