Newcastle (a) match thread

[JRG]

****e supporters the geordies

[FT9]

Fat Sam can get 14 packets of juicey fruits in his mouth in one go

[Shanks65]

Just an aside.

Sami has been great today. Not much to do, granted. But still.

[Shanks65]

why are they booing barton?

Booing the fact that a good attacker is coming off (Emre) I reckon

[Gaz]

why are they booing barton?

I think they were booing the decision to take Emre off more than the decision to bring Barton on

[blacky]

Our away form so far is terrific

[reddragon]

Booing the fact that a good attacker is coming off (Emre) I reckon

they're out of their minds. It's obvious they need more bite in midfield - we're walking it

[carrsim]

good football by the reds there

[bigfooty]

Newcastle trying to make something happen, Sami stands firm against Martins.

Torres with a nice pull back to Kewell who has a first-time shot that is blocked at close range.

[Shanks65]

[redwien]

what with Torres, 55 mins and no goal

[Parm]

yup been solid today.

[desertscouser]

why are they booing barton?

Let me hazard a guess...because he's a c**t?

[bigfooty]

Viduka wins a header, drops to Smith who hits a shot over the bar.

Rafa's song from our fans in an otherwise silent stadium

Milner warming up to cheers from the fans. They are not a happy bunch.

Love to see Nando get his 1st away premiership goal today
