Newcastle (A) Premier League - 30/12/2020 - 20:00

[Bjornebye]

Fuck off. 

[Anubis]

Get in. Get the three points. Make Steve Bruce even redder. Get out.

[Arnaud]

We’ll trash the Geordies, they will deserve it.

[Grinch]

Just three days to go tillI get to hear all about how an absolutely atricious Newcastle side are a tough place to go.  Or maybe it'll be the refs fault or VAR.  

 

Can't be looking in the mirror that's for sure. 

[Trumo]

Any number of Geordie bummings at St James' Park I could refer to, but I'll go back to our 6-0 thrashing of the Toon Army in April 2013, towards the end of Rodgers' first season in charge. We got an early lead through Agger, and were 4-0 up after an hour thanks to further goals from Hendo and 2 from Studge. Hendo got another later on, and even the lesser-spotted Borini got in on the act. It's nice to get one over on Pardew like this.

 

 

The UK chart at the time was seeing a new number one practically every week because they were now counting downloads and streaming on top of physical sales. On the same day as this game, 'Waiting All Night' by Rudimental and Ella Eyre topped the charts. Rudimental are one of those acts I've heard of, and I've probably heard a few of their songs but could never name them. This is one of those.

 

 

We could certainly do with a much better and more clinical performance that what we put up against West Brom. We could also do without players succumbing to injury in every game. Not just the usual suspects but also the ones who are more durable and reliable physically. We usually do quite well away to Steve Bruce teams, it's an Anfield where we have the sort of game against his teams that we've just had against Fat Sam and his 'masterclass'. Just go out there and hand out the drubbing that we are well capable of. Incidentally, we've already played Newcastle 5 times during the festive schedule. Wednesday's gme will be the sixth. For a fixture scheduler that is supposed to be random, it doesn't half throw up some regularity. Just like derby matches falling on the same weekend allowing Sky to rearrange them for their 'Super Sunday'.

Turgid LMA football part 2. 

[3 Stacks]

This will be the exact same game as today was. Will we actually show up for this one? Fuckin stay tuned.

[Creator Supreme]

Another absolute shambles, but this time with 0 points at the end of it!

[ZonkoVille77]

VAR 1 - 0 LFC

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Outcome will be decided by which version of Liverpool turn up for the match.

 

If it’s the hungry, energetic one we saw steamroll Arsenal, Spurs, Wolves and Leicester, we’ll win.

 

If it’s the characterless, pedestrian version we saw against Fulham, Villa and for the majoritet of the games against Brighton and WBA, then it could go either way.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Failing to beat Fat Sham's no-marks was an arse-ache, but we're finishing the year on top of the league. Shit it out and move on.

 

Just get these wannabe Mackems beat, Reds.

[aRdja]

4-2-3-1

 

Alisson; Trent, Williams, Fabinho, Robertson; Henderson, Gini; Shaqiri, Firmino, Mane; Salah

[dockers_strike]

Echo breaking news! Keita to miss the Newcastle game due to muscle injury! Unbelievable, Jeff.

[TheDrowningMan]

Surely we should be demanding that this game is postponed, given that Newcastle have just played the Premier League's COVID factory and should be isolating? At a minimum, Newcastle should have to remove any player involved in the City game.

[sir roger]

By the time the City / Everton game is replayed Everton will be back in sabotage Liverpool mode.

[Bobby Hundreds]

The dreaded TLW trashing curse has been activated.

[Anubis]

Phrases you never want to hear about yourself as a player - “bullied out of it by Coutinho.”

[niallers]

That united result is the only motivation we need for this tomorrow. How that shower of useless cunts are only 2 behind us is infuriating

Yeah a must win game now this one.

[Red Shift]

Well if United at 2 points behind us right out of the blue isn’t motivating, then we’re fucked.

 

However, I think we’ll smash them 4-2

[joe_fishfish]

If the good Liverpool team turns up we'll twat these into 2022. If the shower that played West Brom turn up we'll be lucky to score, let alone win.

Because we've been shite more often than not since the league resumed. 

 

Any decent team would have been well out of sight by now.  Thankfully there is none in this pathetic league. 

[Jordy Brouwer]

Looks like we are all trapped in the salt mines in need of someone throwing a rope. Over to you lads.
