Another weekend, another trip to Manchester.
Date: Saturday 26 November, 2011
Kick-off: 3.00pm.
Referee: Mike Jones (replaces Phil Dowd).
Good afternoon Geordies and welcome to our regular “match banter” feature for this afternoon’s game, which sees the Magpies facing another tough game in Manchester, this time against the United lot.
For an in depth preview to the game, please check out our match preview. Also, we will also be adding the full teamsheets for the game to this post once they become available, along with a full match report and highlights when the game is over so stay tuned!
Much like last weekend, despite still being in the top four we will go into this match as underdogs, with victory eluding us at Old Trafford since the days of Joe Harvey. Our last victory, in February 1972, came exactly a week after the day that will forever live in Geordie infamy, when non-league Hereford United knocked us out of the FA Cup in a 2-1 replay victory. The week after, we beat a side which still included the likes of Charlton, Law and Best. As one of their equally great contemporaries, Jimmy Greaves once said, “It’s a fanny old game”. But getting back to the present, we’re certainly due a victory at the “Theatre of Dreams” so here’s hoping!
Finally, if you have any good links for the game to share, please feel free to share them in the comments section below!
Howay the Lads!

That’s a little harsh SJT!
Sorry Boss…….crawl’s back into bedsit with warm old Amstel
Excellent 1st half…..hope we do these MANC tossers.
#nowtspecial
#bedsitpundit
Lol Obertans trick cross at the end
Fantastic 1st half……Howay the Lads!!!
looking very good so far. very pleased
We get a real striker in and a man that can deliver pin point crosses we will murder some teams !!
Super super Tim
Super super Tim
Super Super Tim
Super Tim mee Kr-ul
Aye SJT, it was a good first half. that Chiquitita’s shite for for them today though.
he can’t finish at all today.
The left side is annoying me, Raylor is playing like crap attack and defence wise and Guti is non existant. Guti protecting Raylor every game is costing us attacking down the left side.
Aye Worky I had a meal at Chiquitita’s once up Hagley Road in Brum once…GASH mate.
Once x 2 ooops Typo Kill me
Chiquitita couldn’t finish a plate of tacos right now…
I think that Man U will be better in the second half though.
SJT says:
“Jonas is fookin boss eyed his final ball,passes are 9/10 shite.”
SJT if we got a decent left back who didnt need his hand holding every week then maybe Jonas could afford a little more time to concentrate on his own game ? However neither full back makes that many forward runs which is prolly down to Pardwho ?
After they’ve been shouted at for a while.
i think pardew will keep the troops going strong. can’t wait for the next half
Jonas Passing has never looked good…yup works like a goodun’ but end product,goals etc have always been lacking…..that extra precision he would be in a top 5 club….oh shit I forgot he already is……haha
Agree Johnny…we have everything to play for.
Give BA a bit of space of a RT set piece lock the doors we are laughing!
Pretty even stats apart from corners
Possession 52%-48%
Corners 5 0
Goal attempts 6 4
On target 3 2
Fouls 6 5
Offside 1 2

for god sake,
still 40 min of play
Concede silly penalties silly free kicks….Achilles heel ?
So shaky now it hurts
The ref is a joke
Now is not the time to panic just maintain the equilibrium.
“The Mekon” Obertan is having one of his best days so far, plus Cabaye is outstanding, HBA is beginning to show what he is capeable of, but has to keep his cool.
Guthrie is covering a lot of ground and apart from Raylor,( who we have to remember is only a fill in LB) has been a bit shakey.
Ba up front is causing problems for the defenders.
This game could go either way and is there for whover wants it enough, later
Now is the best time to give Santon some time, otherwise what was the point in buying him.
That should have been a goal by Young then
That goal was harsh.
They’re gannin’ to get better now.
Colo so close!!
PENALTY!
Problem for HBA is he needs someone on his level to work with and Ba isnt that player. Ideally a Rooney or a Hernandez type would work otherwise he ends up playing by himself.
Love you ben arfa!
All those Mancs should be booked for surrounding the officials !!!!
1-1 come on!
GET IN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON
We just won a dodgy penalty at Old Trafford. I can’t believe it!
Nice one Mike Jones!
Wait until the end when SAF says the ref was poor for them the whole game.
ffs guys stop fouling
Nice one John Flynn too!
Taggarts nose is glowing
Fergie’s foamin’!
Winds up the crowd doesnt it which is probably why he does it ?
Gotta say like my glimpses of Ameobi Jnr last few games he is fookin Awful !
ffs perch again wtf pardew
Perch ??????? where’s that “Crying like a baby” emoticon when you need one ?
Perch on to Kill the game
Nooooo. please pardew don’t put on perch…
Waste of a chance raylor you prick
wtf was that?
holy shit that was terrifying
****
What happened my stream cut out?
We need a defender on ATM not Lovenkrands.
fantastic tackle to save us by taylor then jonas red card. now a fantastic krul save
PHisix http://www.vipbox.tv/watch/19135/17/manchester-united-vsnewcastle-united-live-stream-online.html
I feel sorry for Jonas. Pardwho has to stop this shite with Raylor at LB and stop putting pressure on Jonas to keep tracking back all the time. The guy looks frazzled.
oh divven’t be knacked Danny!
Can’t take much more of this. My bottom’s all clenched!
holy f***in shit this is terrifying
Not much point in leaving two up front now is there ?
Andy Mac says:

“Not much point in leaving two up front now is there ?”
we need a 9-0-0 formation Andy.
Oh look 4 mins
YESSSSSSSS
Amazing point !!!
Haha TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON !!
Five Manc players surrounding the referee, what a surprise
Good point especially with only ten men.
I’ll take that, but we need to work on our marking in the goal area
Thank **** for that. I was going to have a coronary there if it went on any longer.
and the Makems are losing at home
J’Adore TOOOOOOOOON!!
Great point good shift!!
ugly, but a points a point and some amazing saves and solid defense.

Johnny says:

“ugly, but a points a point and some amazing saves and solid defense”
Aye, 10 men as well Johnny. We still need some defenders though.
true, worky. can’t believe perch didn’t kill us. and in those last 20 min, the back 4 and krul were both amazingly lucky and amazingly good.
would love to see at least another centerback. with word of coloccini almost not starting i was terrified of who’d cover. perch was my only thought and that’s enough to hide in bed all day and go nowhere near a tv screen
There’s no doubt this team can defend but scoring against top sides requires more invention IMO. Crying out for a skillful, dynamic goal machine – but then again who isnt ?
Yet still fourth and a point above the Russians although Spuds now two points ahead in 3rd.
Johnny says:
November 26, 2011 at 5:06 pm
“would love to see at least another centerback.”
Even though we got away with that one, it really showed how much we need some backup in defence, especially when we were a man down, getting battered and Pardew brings on Lovenkrands! At least Perch is supposed to be a defender.
agree andy. both ba and ben arfa had a couple great looks, but seemed to disappear a couple times. have to see if we really do bring in Maiga
Andy Mac says:
November 26, 2011 at 5:12 pm
“although Spuds now two points ahead in 3rd.”
And with a game in hand. Still, we were lucky bastads to get a point today. I’m not used to all this luck business being a Toon supporter. I can’t handle it after all this time.
Wow ! I’ll take it, the point that is !
Heroic defending!
Got to say we lucked out as far as it being a penalty, but what the hell, how many have Man.U. been unjustly awarded through the years, all evens out in the long run.
Fergie was pissed, too bad, feels it slip sliding away, Hey! cant win em all !
Couple of changes, have no idea why Pardew put in Sammy for Obertan, who had one of his best games yet.
Look I think Sammy has potential, but when it comes to defending, he is like his brother, employing the matador defense.
And, Lovenkrands for HBA, when we are a man down ?
what the hell’s wrong with Santon ?
Perhaps their may be second thoughts concerning the Simpson contract, he had a very good dame, with an amazing goal line block, that earned us the point.
Guthrie, must have covered every blade of grass on the pitch, Cabaye is an outstanding talent, Ba did his job up front with not a lot of help.
What was Jonas thinking with the tackle, i mean he knew he was already on a yellow, ah well, rush of blood to the head.
Capt. Colocinni and Saylor, what can you say, one of the best set of CD’s in the league, plus both Simpson and Raylor, played tough.
Have i forgotten anyone, well the game hero was Krul, combining with his back four defended heroically .
Bring on Chewsea !
I just realised, if Tottenham win their game in hand, they go above Man U! I love to see them fail…

Yep I’d have Timmy as MOTM as well. He made the difference between a point and nowt, well played.
PS Caught this on BBC Sport
Rachel T on Twitter: “Did Wenger REALLY say “We are reliant on Robin” ?
I mentioned last week Jonas was going to get sent off. Shame I couldn’t have dreamt the lotery numbers aswel.
Well it’s the Arse.vs. Fulham, just aboot to start, plus gotta look at the tables.
Later.
I had this as 1-1 in the predictor, but changed it to 2-1 at the last minute :/
Before the Mancs whinge on about dodgy penalties, it has been asked how did Rooney stay on the pitch after this ? Yet SFA claims we fouled them all over the pitch.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=et8ZNP2Pp1U
Andy, you’re absolutely right i couldn’t believe they let that go. and then the outright shove on jonas without even going for the ball… i know we racked up the yellows and the penalty was lucky but jesus, they escaped with quite a bit
The manure players are still on the pitch – so they think we havn’t played any of the big teams – we have now!
still 4th
HWTL

“The manure players are still on the pitch”
I wanted Fergiecam so I could watch him having a fit over that penalty. He doesn’t usually get good penalty shouts given against him there, let alone dubious ones.
I know it’s been said on this thread already but well done to Simmo for hanging in there and particularly for his goal line clearance. Wonder what they’re saying on .com about him now ?
Meanwhile the moaning Mancs over at Radio 5 are complaining bitterly without any acknowldegement of the Evra handball nor the Rooney attack on Colo but that’s what you get from whinging Mancs – a lop sided view of life
Well got my wish, at least in the first half, great game to watch and it became obvious we were not here to to be beaten as usual, by taking the game to them,
Think they got a bit of a surprise, when they found temselves on the back foot and having to defend.
But on saying that, most clubs sense any weakness, as with Man.U. and Chelsea at present, of course Arsenal lost respect seasons ago.
Then again Man.Citeh were fortunate to beat QPR recently, so it’s gotta be, no respect!
Of course the second half was a different story, we did’nt supply the same pressure on them, and were lucky to get the penalty, but we defended like Trojans and managed to get the point, yeaaaah !
I can live with that !
Match highlights are up now lads.
As usual I will try to update then with some better, longer ones, and get the post match interviews up as well when they become available.
Newcastle defender Danny Simpson on Twitter: “What a game, feel so proud 2 part of this newcastle team! Great point against utd, lads played well n dug in deep at the end. Hope the fans have a massive night tonight”
and thanks for the highlights WT
Andy Mac says:

“and thanks for the highlights WT”
Nee botha Andy. I’m trying to get the post match interviews, Fergie thought it was a “travesty”

Thanks bluemoon, same to you and aye, it would do us a favour if you beat Liverpool. Poor Fergie, I’ve never seen a penalty like that given at Old Trafford before.
