    As I say with no Swan I'm hoping its not another on the treatment table Powell & Humphrys are strolling around as if they believe they can do the business without working and they cant, dare Alexander make three subs at half time for me Lapslie, Sarcevic and Neufville for me ?.

    I could get on board with the negativty if it was a league 1 game but ffs they are the holders and add to that a top top side.
    Most PL teams would have there hands full but magically a team that is not out of League 2 that long should be given these the runaround :)
    Honestly even at full strength they would be doing the same ............still who am to have a go at folk that crave being negative lets hope Blackpool turn us over and you can really go for it Saturday night :)

    Rest and save players? Touray has played every minute of the season and we're playing 3 of the first choice midfield. We're achieving nothing here apart from flogging everyone in front of that back 3 to death after every hoof.

    We’re not staying top for long. I’d be going down fighting tonight with our chests puffed out, not bowing out with a pathetic wimper.

    neuf and sarc must come on now before we go 3-0 or 4-0 down

    Unfortunately I think if we pressed as we usually do we would be picked off at will

    Not convinced myself. I expected a bit more given his pedigree.

    Newcastle are doing to us what a few league 1 teams and Grimsby did to us by outnumbering in midfield with a number 10 getting in a lot of space. The difference is their midfield 3 and 2 wide players are internationals who will play most Premier League games this season. Whoever we played in midfield and defense it was always going to be very tough.

    Yeah I'm no saying he's a particularly exciting addition but he has his uses.
