Another victory for the lads?
Currently in the temporary charge of Keith Millen after the departure “by mutual consent” of previous incumbent, Gary Johnson, the Robin’s form has hardly been spectacular recently. Even at home, they have won only two of their last six matches. They have also been carrying a few injuries too. Having written all that though, they did manage to eke out a point out of us in a dour 0-0 draw at SJP much earlier in the season, so as usual, it wouldn’t be wise to count our chickens until they are hatched and various other metaphors.
For more in depth pre match speculation, as usual, you can check out Toonsy’s excellent match preview. There will also be full match review, once again by Toonsy, coming up sometime after the game.
This time there will be UK TV coverage, courtesy of Sky Sports (hence the 5.20pm kick off), but if anyone has any good video links to the game for people who don’t have it, I’m sure that would be much appreciated. As ever, this can be the place to come together during the match and p*ss and moan, as we usually do.
We will of course try to get the team sheet up when it becomes available.
Howay the Lads!
Kick-off: 5:20 pm, Ashton Gate.

..Why not get a
three nowt
Any win will do
5-0 will be nice though
any links?
Well, nice to see I got the team selection spot on in my match preview
Harper
Simpson–Hall–Colo–Jose
Routledge–Nolan–Guthrie–Jonas
Carroll–Best
We all knew that best was gonna start. It’s a shame that Nile hasn’t been allowed to show his worth at all this season. Waste of money and hindrance to our “strong youth policy.”
http://www.nufcradio.tk/
CH1 is radio CH3 is video I think.
thanks toonsy
I live in Florida and daylight savings time just screwed me up. I just now realized that we have another hour almost until the game starts.
AndrewT I agree about Ranger not getting the chance he deserves, but maybe he will get a 20min run out later, and maybe we might even see Best score today and see a different side off him to what we have seen up to now as I havn’t seen him do much except keep Ranger from getting a chance.
2-1 win for us
Howay the Lads
Worky what about them muppets lastnite mate on here
Dave – Hopefully the alter-ego’s have gone now mate.
Andrew T – Bookmark that link mate, they always have radio and if there is video they will have that aswell.

“Worky what about them muppets lastnite mate on here”
It would have been easier if someone hadn’t deleted nearly all of his messages before I could get to see them! It was just a clown from Manchester passing through, but if I he comes back again, I know where he lives.
Mr Worky: are you tired????
Kick-off: 5:20 pm, St James’s Park. ?????
Thanks again Toonsy. I’ve got it set. I’m really excited, this is unfortunately the first game that I’ll get the chance to watch this season.
AOD – Thought you were going to bed?
Hmmm,might hang on till half-time. i am half-asleep now. hehees.
Andrew T – It’s much hardr to find a stream in the championship so most of this season has been radio only unless it’s ‘game of the day’ on the championship round up show or unless it’s on TV like this one is.
If we go up then we should be able to get them for every game as PL football is more widely broadcast.
AOD – If your still up now you mat aswell take in the whole game. just have some Red Bull or something
woIt would have been easier if someone hadn’t deleted nearly all of his messages before I could get to see them! It was just a clown from Manchester passing through, but if I he comes back again, I know where he lives.
does that mean you will write them a nasty letter like m8
Nah ice, he’ll send the heavies round
Yeah, I watched quite a few games of the team being crap last season. That’s another reason why I can’t wait for us to grab promotion. Also when I finally make it to Newcastle next year I’ll be able to watch an entertaining match!
toonsy you can come watch round mine if you want? im ordering pizza
“Also when I finally make it to Newcastle next year I’ll be able to watch an entertaining match!”
I wouldn’t count on that like
Afternoon Markus, will your mum be there?
sadly mother stockley is in grimsby visiting her sister
does anyoneknowif joey’s on the bench?
Always wondered why Grimsby smelt of fish
How is father Stockley?
Worky
You say best has done nowt. I think he is like heskey he creates space for others while looking like he couldn’t hit a barn door. Swansea a typical example we were doing nowt till he came on. Other sub appearances have kept the goals coming just not for him. lets hope today is the day and its the winner
Mark, nah. Bench is Krul, Taylor, Butt, Ranger, Kadar, Pancrate and Donaldson.
ok no barton is squad.
father stockley isa double hard bastard mate, hes doing very well
haha, good point. Who knows, maybe the team spirit will stay alive and we’ll actually compete?! Crazier things have happened.
leon best pftttttttttt!
he’ll probably have a stonker and score the winner now.

M. Stockley
No joey today Donaldson got the place on the bench.
toonsy getting greedy now mind,i!ll stick with 2-1 to toon like
Markus – Good, I’m glad.

No sweat Worky there goes my theory of who it was out the window then

in Toonsy’s defence I think they were removed cause it was vile shit all from the same person just different displayed name, but thats behind us now.
Right lads getting excited now.
Lets get it on
Howay the Lads
Anyone see thae Toon fans, dressid banana suits? Bowburn must hane sneaked his stag party on
Worky
apologies mate.
It was big Dave
Easy mistake
come on the toon
should have been a penalty. wba would have got it
Good little header by Bristol City.
budalovesapatsy guilty as charged me lod
Any good clear stream Lads
Dave – One at the top of the thread, that nufc radio one, and worky posted one aswell.
We have started slow and it’s giving them confidence.
They’ve started brightly, already had an effort or two on goal. To be expected from the home team against us though i think. Looks like Best is going to be playing higher than Carroll early on.
hey chaps, anyone got a decent link?
sorry toonsy, really bad quality on yours
Commentator just summed it up.
“It’s to take 3 points away from Ashton Gate”
The game is also streamed live via bet365.com (free after sign up and more reliable than iraqtv et al = good source imo).
Sky TV is pretty clear
Toonsy the nufcradio one is bad for me. this ones not to bad > http://livefooty.doctor-serv.com/sat20.3/Bristol_Newcastle.html
It’s not bad at “Bob’s Place” if anyone is having problems getting a decent video link.

There’s a stream.
nufcradio.tk is taking the piss – the stream is a video camera set up in front of a telly, ffs – dafty, I want to actually see what’s going on.
That call on Routledge was pathetic! I hope we’re not up against these for the rest of the game
Welp.
suck suck suck suck suck suck
1-0 City. I wouldnt have even said it was a free kick but everyone has just stood and watched when Harper spills the ball. Poor goalkeeping to be honest.
FFS
f897k down already!
Oh FFS.
harper mistake one of few this season
Poor keeping, poor defending.
big mistake from harper – now this game is gonna be tough as they’ll be well up for it – we need to reply asap
Best is a fecking donkey!
Taken an age there Best, had plenty of time to get a shot off.
Best
Why did he not shoot. No confidence Isn’t going to improve if doesn’y buy a ticket
Sorry, reaction post @ 67
He should have shot earlier though and not give the defender chance to get back in.
kinel – best why dont you shoot ya daft get
If best keeps this up, he better be off by the half. What made Hughton want to be this guy, I’ll never know.
Why do they look full of energy and speed and we look like tomorrow will do
nice dribbling by Carroll!
Haper did well to well a very hard and power shot, stright at him, but the ball just came off him a little.
My question is – Where is all the newcastle players, that should clear when the goalkeeper keep the ball out.
What i is saw was 3 on rushing Bristol City players!!!
Why isnt that a yellow card? He’s gone in from behind and not won the ball
Yes, best is not play too well. He is lacking of confidance, can be seen by his play. Only can hold ball.
buda – Becasue it is there FA cup final, they have a new manager and want to prove a point, they have a full house and wamt to impress….
we will loose this one i think.
ugh! Carroll could have gotten us back in there. Good cross by Jonas though!
should of scored
We’ve settled a little now by the looks of things, starting to see more of the ball. That was a chance for Carroll given the form he’s in n’all.
It’s only 20 minutes into the game and we’re still running the game for the most part. Why is Jonas playing in the center so much?
“launches himself to the ground”-I wouldnt go that far mate. He’s beaten two men and been taken down.
its another scunthorpe away score type thing coming up i fear!!!
Awful by Jonas.
If Routledge’s foul was a free kick, thats a penalty. There’s an arm in his back as he jumps for the ball
Refs give us nowt any other team would have got a penalty.
Ross – Aye, like the “there wasn’t anything there to give a penalty”
Apart from the arm pushing Carroll flying mind!
anyone got any decent links where u dont have to download a player?
We are coming back into it mind.
how static is steve harper – he’s just standing round watching
Guys there’s a link here too….
http://atdhe.net/15449/watch-bristol-city-vs-newcastle-united
Not impressed with our defending mind.
toonsy, i dont know who this commentator is but I dont like him. He always does our games with Sky and he’s constantly putting us down. He gives us credit should we score or that, but just in general as the game is going he likes to have a bit of a stab every now and again. Claiming Jonas launched himself to the ground, before claiming there was nothing going on in the box like you say. He’s either holding his shirt or got an arm in Carrolls back. Both are fouls.
devonmag says:
March 20, 2010 at 5:46 pm
Try it!
Shit, don’t let Nolan be hurt. DO NOT PUT IN BUTT! DON’T DO IT!
craig chisholm at the mo its 1-0 not 3-0 its a bit early to write us off
Ross says:
March 20, 2010 at 5:48 pm
Seeing is believing. See the link for yrself. Just heck care about the stupid commentator.
If butt were to come in now …our % of winning it will be hard man
Half chance but he just does not look like scoring
15 mins to half time…
In slo mo he just about managed to miss the ball.
best is fkin useless – i could have scored that myself!!
Hmm, Best need to get a grip.
Buda-I didnt want to mention Best again like but to be brutally honest he hasnt even struck that cleanly,lol
Ross – Soundles like Gary Birtles is the commentator.
The commentator has Best pegged. What is his strength? He’s not particularly quick, not big, can’t finish…
Please bring Ranger in early.
I heard the ref has a bet on Britsol City winning today.
Why have we got nobody on the edge of the box trying to pick up the 2nd ball?
Nolan not influemcing the game and Routledge has to pick somebody out with a cross
Guthrie had to go for the shot. He’s made them before…
Christ Jonas if you lose the ball dont just f***ing stand there moaning, chase back. Thats lazy.
Why cant we press like Bristol like thay are doing to us?
Look at Jonas just stand and complain when he lost the ball there. Totally pulled out of a 50/50. Do some work and try winning the ball back.
BEST OFF NOW.
Or at least learn to fecking trap a ball of young Ranger.
routledge crossing seems a bit poor, colo is god. So calm and collected, just reads the game a treat. My link just switched to a French Ligue one game haha I think it’s Toulouse playing…
I’m hoping Best will score and shut me up lol.
oh my god. This pr!ck from sky, im going to have to mute this. THAT IS A CLEAR FOUL YOU BIAS W@NKER.
Unlucky Nolan. Keeper happened to be in the right place.
Sigh, should have scored there.
toonsy it looks like he’s terrified of taking a shot when there’s somebody between the posts.
UGH!! Right at the keeper’s chest! Keep pushing lads!
Ross – We should be used to it mate, we had it with Andy Gray for long enough.
@devonmag- me too.
Colo and Enrique are truly class for this league.
The ex toon player is well fired up for this
…2-0
Game Over!
Ridiculous. Game over by the looks of things.
that was a screamer! Hard to get back into this one now
Crap (great strike though)!
what a joke by newcastle
Wonder strike but should not have been allowed to come inside basic defending
simpson should have got closer
KINNEL!
Really have been playing like a pub team all over the pitch.
Still might scrape a draw.
Can’t believe it. Have we even been in a position to come back from 2 goals this season?
game over – we’re playing crap, best is kin useless
We can scrape a draw if we could simply finish.
…
Wow
Hahahahaha
He’s picked the ball up on the touchline in a 3 on 1 situation, cut inside no worries and to be fair the strike was excellent, but we just havent really turned up. They’ve pressured us from the word go and have looked hungrier. It was quite obvious they’d be galvanised given their current situation but at the end of the day this is a team that have won 2 in their last 12 games and they’re taking us to the cleaners. We’re missing Lovenkrands in the final third. Alot of what he does goes un noticed. He makes intelligent runs and drags defenders out of position. There’s been none of that today and they’ve defended rigidly. We should have scored there. he should have hit it early.
looks like we will have to put 3 past them now FFS, but have to say Maynard is having a super game
what a stupid block
GUTHRIE! SO CLOSE
Guthrie should have shot there.
Pathetic half and flies in the face of people who claimed we just had to turn up to win!
Marks out of 10 = Fecking zero!
Had a feeling before the game that this had a Derby away written all over it. If we lose this i hope our goal difference doesn’t take too much of a battering
I reckon that miss will cost us, 2-1 there and I would have betted on us turning the game.
arrrrggghhhhh
When that happens you may as well pack up and go home and forget it about it. Donny on Tuseday here we come
It should have gone in..
You can clearly see it is their cup final and they are up for, purely for the high 5′s when Guthries shot got blocked.
Don’t write us off yet lads jesus it’s like being on Ed’s blog last year! We’re playing some good stuff but haven’t been clinical in the final third, Guthrie came so close there and that woulda turned the game right on it’s head.
Hughton will get a rocket up the player’s backsides at half time and we’ll come out fighting, and with any luck start to dominate possesion. I reckon we could, maybe, nick a 2-2 draw here, which would be a result.
pride before a fall eh toonsy? Always seems to be the way in footy
best & Jonas off , Ranger and R Taylor on for the second half and we can still pull this around . I hope that hugton is reading the riot act in the dressing roon . come on Chris give them the sir Alex hairdrier treatment .
Lets hope CH rips them apart in the changing room I know its not just down to 1 or 2 players but Harper should have had the 1st, Nolan hasn’t been on song again but Best is a fuking Donkey. I still hope we can come out and give these ones a game and stop it turning into a rout
devon – I just don’t get people saying we just need to turn up to win. It’s not like that and there are many many examples of it not being the case.
big dave @ 98…. you were saying mate???
simpson so sh.t like i said to that guy who thinks he is class!best is going to stay on if CH has got any brains put ranger on thats why he cant be trusted to manage us in the prem stick with shit all the time and it takes him 50 games to change it like guthrie was playing on the wing then he brings him in midfield.
asim – Wasn’t it you who said we just had to turn up to win?
well said asim. shame.
no chance of bugga all out of this game. lets forget about it. what is important now is we dont loose the next one… away again… to another easy team like bristol and scunthorpe eh!!! forest now 9 behind. we loose again and they six behind… could be intersting ha ha. if we implode now it would go down as the biggest f*** up in football history i think.
Ask yourself who is playing up to their potential and it is easy to work out why we are losing two nowt. Can only afford to have one player on a off day not all
cant see us not getting at least a point if that clown CH doesnt change it.
Well, early can change things eh chaps?
Howay the lads.
craig it’s still too early to write us off mate, they scored 2 goals in 45 minutes why can’t we? Granted, it’s not looking so great…
and Toonsy yeh I know, it is confusing- especially considering we’re toon fans. You’da thought that by now we were well and truly used to the unpredictable and turbulent nature of our club! This is Newcastle FFS
early goal i mean.
asim the fact that you’re calling hughton a clown completely undermines anything further you may have to say about football. I suppose he fluked us to the top of the league, or maybe they just taught him a few tricks in clown school and he’s been using them to devestating affect for the past 8 months?
the ingratitude is astounding
Well, a like for like change for Bristol with Sno coming on however it looks like we’re starting the second the way we did the first. Lets see if we start brightly. There’s another silly free kick given away immediatly. Maynard is having a v good game.
Axel
Why take Jonas off when he is our best player.
devonmag im 40 next month been a suporter since birth and still not used to the unpredictability it never fails to amaze me .
asim says:
March 20, 2010 at 6:20 pm
“cant see us not getting at least a point if that clown CH doesnt change it.”
Why is CH a “clown” exactly, Asim?
Will Colo be suspended now or have we got to the amnesty stage of the season where accumulated bookings dont count?
Who was that. Thats embarrassingly wasteful.
craig chisholm its still not over mate just depends what CH has done
Is our defence even awak?
Enrique loses the ball, jogs back and they play a ball into the gap down the channel, why does it look like we’re just not giving 100%?
theres that word IF only coming again
Asim you are this Blogs resident prize CLOWN
Help – lost my link. Anyone got any streams you don’t need to download software? On my work laptop, security like the Pentagon not allowed to download software – bit of a pain
budalovesapatsy from what i have seen first half he is coming inside too much he needs to stay out wide and get some crosses in , he has the beating of the fullback .
Best off for Butt and move Nolan up. Our midfield is doing bugger all and our defence can’t handle with the rushes that BC are throwing at us.
Oh christ. Fitz Hall off with a hamstring.
hall injured, kadar?
big dave,being kind there m8
Somebody give CH a text and tell him to ask Jonas to pass the ball, please.
Leon Best’s first touch is terrible. I’m sorry but its bread and butter stuff.
jeez now hall injured how is our luck
ha ha ha, this season looks like its going to fall appart in true newcastle fashion! only we could throw it away now!
Thump, thing is we need to chase the game. If anything is changed then it should be Ranger on for Best who has been truly woeful.
I don’t want to get on his back like but it’s not looking good for him.
Craig chisholm-I wouldnt go that far, we’re a point clear at the top of the league with two games in hand.
March 20, 2010 at 3:41 pm
the teams in ccc are nothing we only have to turn up to get some thing away. at home we are way to strong for them.today with routledge and jonas plus enrique we will score 3 or 4 this is the first time we will have them away from home playing fit.
Then
asim says:
March 20, 2010 at 4:34 pm
see you later toonsy me going down to watch the game.
F*ck me – the t*t on SKY’s now going on about the toon “knowing what it’s like to see a lead whittled away in different circumstances”, etc. Blah f*cking Blah!
Sky really put out the f*cking B-TEAM for the championship games!
That’s it. I’m turning the f*cking sound down
one game in hand
jeez now collos limping!
Ranger’s coming on. Thank f*ck for that.
Aye, I agree toonsy but I’m a bit concerned by how easy they’re getting through our defence.
Debs > http://livefooty.doctor-serv.com/sat20.3/Bristol_Newcastle.html
Routledge needs to be stronger. keep posession
Barn storming run from Kadar then, cracking shot at the end of it aswell!
god got another away game to look forward as well
and with taylor, colo, fitz, williamson all out we have no real defence.
Broon-its terrible like. Andy Gray is the same with the top four. Lucky to get a corner there because thats a poor ball from Guthrie.
oh Kadar wasn’t far away, BC are playing like a team on fire.
The ref is a tool just like Asim
guthries delivery has been poor today
If we can get one back quickly now we can still get a point
Red card gone begging for Sno there. Threw an arm out twice, dirty cnut.
toonsy… no chance, it was never our day from first kick onwards.
If they can’t find that ball, they should make Routledge pay for it
yup – not our day today
Our crossing is wicked.
Routledge looks one of those players who when we are winning looks a world beater but when its a battle goes missing. Haven’t heard Nolan or Best names for last ten nminutes
How come Sno hasn’t been sent off yet?
Oh right, ref’s got money on BC.
buda – Think you have Routledge spot on there like.
Look like we cant be arsed at the minute. Losing the ball left right and center and not fighting to win it back. We need to make changes.
That cross is the closest Best has come to a goal
My only criticism of Routledge would be his lack of strength. It seems to be his quick feet that let him beat players but shoulder to shoulder he loses out every time.
every time we on sky we get this,whats going on?
we should only have another 5 or 6 mins to see the best of Best
then young Ranger should be brought on give him a go
God knows. Maybe it’s the pressure or something.
Ranger should come on now. Best has proved that he can’t put it in the back of the net for an hour already!
Cannae see a goal coming unless it is a fluke or an own goal. Huff and puff with no end product.
What bothers me is that Best is higher on the pecking order than Ranger. Yes, he has more experience but Ranger seems to have more interest in the game than he does and can do a lot more imo.
i have no idea why even bought best?? made no sense at all.
can’t handle the pressure of the tv ice!
Jonas!
Get in, Spidey!
Good effort Jonas there like. Get in Jonas. Come on lads
thought todays scores ie wba/nf would have them fired up for this,how wrong can you be,ah i forgot this is the toon
For christ sake hughton please take Routledge off and put him out of his misery and mine
Jonas Score!!!!
come on lads FFS do something
COME ON LADS!
Fecking missed as I nipped to the bog!
get in Jonas
Best for Ranger
Come on.
Told you about our goal Fluke or own goal
A bit of both
Hopefully we wake up now and give 110%. We’ve done the basics poorly today, the goal was a huge mistake on their part but who cares.
did Jonas score? I lost my feed
right lads I think we can get something out of this now we need to get the Donkey of ta fuk
Aye Andrew.
Looks like that might have broke BC, too – they’re playing anti-football.
devonmag,me also m8 always go to the bog for last 5mim (true)
NOW they’re up for it.
Haway!
I know people cream about Vuckic but Kadar looks like the best thing to come out of the academy, can shoot, pass, defend, get forward.
Nolan giving the ball away again
ANDY CARROL EQUALISED!
Great! Now just go for the win!
WHAT A F*CKING GOAAAL!
GET IN CARROLL, COME ON LADS
CPOME OOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get in Young un.
He is one of us
Looks what it means to him
Fcuk em, cider drinking yokels!
No offense to Devon, the poster or the place
lol caps
This stream keeps dropping off when we score. I swear uStream is out to do me
get in get in get in me Lad
come on
Lets push on, that has to to knock Bristol City’s confidence?
lads we can get this fuking brilliant
what’ve you got to say about that Craig Crisholm and Stevep? You just can’t write us off this season!! Ranger on to nick the winner HOWAY THE LADS
big dave…. sorry, i stand corrected. i shopuld have had a bit more faith but the years have knocked it out of me.
Routledge I forgive you for the first 75 minutes of crap
The move was start by our left back Jose Enrique.
Fuking commentaters have changed there tune they were slacking us off something shocking
Routledge is a good young player
What happened with Carroll? Is he okay or what?
@Craig: Mate, as Newcastle United fans we have no choice but to keep the faith. Keep on keeping on, man
Why isn’t Ranger on yet?
Elbow in the face by Bristol City player “doesnt even know he is there” the commentator says.
Newcastle player does the same “that a violent assault and the player should be locked up and castrated” the commentator says
hehehe none taken toonsy but technically Bristol’s not in Devon, although they are cider drinking yokels! Actually I think the main vice in Bristol is ketamine – most of them have forgotten about booze entirely
craig chisholm no worries buddy yeha
Come on CH get the Donkey of and get Ranger on now
That definitly looked like it went out,lol
big dave enjoying your quips keep it up m8
Eh… what happened there? Ando’s going on about little bits of luck.
Best just had the best chance he’s ever going to have.
Bloody hell
Best, nearly
Cracking cross by Carroll.
Christ, unlucky leon best, excellent header, excellent save. Best just cant get that first goal
Thump, ball looked like it quite clearly crossed the line for a Bristol corner and it wasnt given.
attack attack attack lads oh the Donkey near scored lol
Sod it, I’m done with streams, they’re all bloody crap!
Typical that Sky had to cut me off just as we get a run of games on it lol
Ross best couldn’t hit a barn door with a scatter gun we should put him out to pasture
I can see why that Haynes is narked aout coming off. Need to watch that Sproule though as he is fast as fcuk!
Davis_toons
You wouldn’t thonk so on todays performance
Thump this has worked the whole way through http://livefooty.doctor-serv.com/sat20.3/Bristol_Newcastle.html
Thump – Pay the bill then
We cross the ball so poorly every game not just today
toonsy your right Sproule is worth watching I have seen him a few times for Norn Iron.
Look like Ranger is getting nowt today
@Dave: I tried but “I don’t have Sopcast installed” apparently. Funnily enough no other site seems to have a problem with detecting it =/
@toonsy: The money was there for them to take, but the daft b*stards couldn’t set up a direct debit to save their lives!
Was that the Bristol end shouting cheat at Jonas? The lad is tugging on his arm to hold him back, of course its a free kick whether Jonas goes to ground or not.
Please dont concede
Thank fcuk!
This is hilarious. Booing Jonas constantly, EVERY SINGLE ONE of these challenges have been worthy of a free kick.
Icedog hows the ticker holding up mate as my is thumping real fast
Aye, they’re shouting “cheat”.
Don’t get me wrong, he falls down like it’s nobodies business, but it isn’t his fault the players are crap.
3 minutes added on time, howay!
steady toonsy steady
One thing I will say about Best, he can jump high. Be great at Basketball
Don’t bring me into this, Dave! ;D
oh well a draw looked impossible at 50 mins better than a loss
the Donkey should be took to the vet and put out of his misery FFS
big dave holding it in with both hands m8
A point will do me, like. Still got a game in hand, I suppose.
Christ, Jonas came to life after he got that goal like, he was giving them the run around something rotten. Wasnt putting that effort in earlier on! Have to be happy with a draw there under the circumstances
1 pt will have to do thank fuk thats over
me too, a point is much better than i thought we were going to get.
Toonsy I hope Best takes up basketball or hand ball as his feet arn’t the best
Far happier than half time.
It just shows you can be the better players but if you don’t match the battle and committment of the other side like we did first half you don’t win football matches.
Jonas great second half. Kadar also impressed Jose too
Guthrie and others didn’t hide but were just below best.
Best and Nolan massive under achievers
So Bristol City were a big handful then.
Well – that’s saved my weekend!
It all seemed to happen when Jonas just suddenly switched on. He had a blinding five minute purple patch and we got both goals – the second one was a blinder.
He was outstanding toward the end as well.
ross amis been all day saying we only have to turn up today to win,dont think hes seen what a ball looks like never mind kick one m8
Been trying to think of a catchy headline for the report, speaking of which i’ll crak on with it now.
well what can you say..that was pure shite totaly void of tactics…for the people on here who think this team/hughton can do a job in the PL need to have a rethink…we need massive investment in the summer IF we go up its as simple as that..
Hi Big Dave thanks for posting the link – still couldn’t get on. Never mind. At least we got a point
Ehhh two games in hand*
The lads are looking complacent. Nolan is looking to get a few goals in as often as possible, Guthrie is looking ot set up a few goals as often as possible, Routledge and Jonas are continuously attacking so that leaves a massive gap between the defence and the midfield.
I’m all for attacking football but not when we’re away. Smith is back for Donny away, aye?
reet be back soon I need some munchies now
That was exciting!
That’ll do, i suppose.
If Guthrie had scored at the end of the first, we’d of won that.
Thank you Jonas, worked his ass off for the result.

“Been trying to think of a catchy headline for the report, speaking of which i’ll crak on with it now.”
Do what I did, toonsy. Try a trite, lazy, breast related double entendre.
Hang on, I was right the first time.
Time for a power nap methinks!
007- there will be no massive investment. i dont think i even want it anymore, all of the other MASSIVE investments apart from shearer have not been worth a wonk. all our best players were cheapos. the big names – all fucking crap, every last one of them, it means nothing without having the heart for the club or fight in your belly. big money does not mean big improvement.
Its time to start kadar every game , he has never lost a game in a Newcastle shirt !
@Clint Flick: That’s an Andy Gray line if ever there was one. “If he scores, it’ll be a goal!”
Who’s andy gay?
big dave whos the clown! we turned up in the last 20 mins and got a point like i said and then why did u want best to come off when CH is so good why didnt he take him off then u losers.
asim… ease up pal
asim… simple fact is, we should be thrashing every team other than brom and boro. christ, colo alone is worth more than all of bristols team twice over. If you think that what we have will work wonders in the prem you are so wrong. we will struggle like mad in prem. end of.
Asim you talk a lot of shit mate
never said that mate! Thats why i dont like CH even if he has done wonders for us!the facts he has got no clue about tactics or just playing players who are not good enough to play in front of others like best. the centre midfield area is a must which i have said all season too slow but he has not even bothered about it and it took him 32 games to play gutheri there if he plays them we will struggle so thats my point. he is not going to get rid is he.
Well made, well finished 2nd goal.
As was their 2nd.
& both teams first goals were ‘keeper ‘errors’.
At least the lads showed some fighting spirit, to get back into it.
Pity we couldn’t just nick it like.
Next!
Thought we bossed the game myself both there goals were against the run of play.Didnt think we would get back in second half cause of the rain was pissing down.
Jonas was disgustingly poor today. He only came to life when Gerkin passed the ball to him. Before that, he was awful.
I like Ed and I always read his blogs but he has posted one saying this is “2 points lost”, completely oblivious to the fact Bristol City are a seriously difficult team to beat at home. Yes, they’ve been hammered a few times recently but check their record over the past 2 seasons, it’s a great home record.
A great home team record + a hideous first half = a good draw.
We’re still in pole position to win the league nevermind get promoted so lets not get too negative.
Mostly unhappy campers to-day folks, whadda you want ?
to win em all ?
Got your excitement with a late comeback for the draw and a point, not a lotta teams capable of that.
Still top of the division, with the probability of promotion yet no-ones happy.
Lotta player criticism and name-calling, c`mon folks we are N.U.F.C. in the second tier not a PL first four team
and may never be one for that matter.
Hey ! lighten up and enjoy being the best in the fizzy, things wont be so easy next season.
Looks like you have been designated as “the goat”
on this blog Asim, the pack mentality, dont let them get you down, say what you believe, that`s what the blog is about.
feck em !
I am positive. I have loved the Championship, its a much more pleasant and enjoyable league than the Premiership.
My only negative was how bad Jonas was for 70 minutes. He was misplacing passes, he wasn’t even defending like he normally does, he wasn’t making runs, he was diving like Tom Daley and he was just atrocious. The moment Gerkin messed up, he suddenly came to life.
I also note Hughton only made one substitution again today, lol. I love Hughton, he’s a top class guy but his hatred of substitutions angers me, lol. Stuff being on his bench, you know you’re only getting on if someone breaks a leg.
Think hes a nufc supporter chuck i dont.
keep the faith lads and lasses… we’re still looking good…!!
NUFCELITE I think your right he’s a WUM
Chuck some very good points you made @ 323 but I especialy liked when you designated asim as “the goat”
Wasnt it asim last night saying we should sell guthrie?
NUFCELITE!Yes he is a toon Fan! he makes good points look at the bright side he got it right in the end when he said we wont get beat when we were losing not like most of the blog saying thats it or we are shit and why is best on the only answer is he was right in the end not beliveing we would not get beat and that all that matters.
Maybe your friend better off sticking to cricket anderson.
Cause some of the things he says no nufc in there right mind would agree with.
Match report up guys
Did you watch match on sky toonsy?
I did mate, how come?
Thoght we bossed it really from start to finish, there goals were sagainst the run of play, bit of magic for there second he took that well.
