Get in!!!

Charlie

A new Toon hero is born!

kinaldo

Easy to see why WBA are bottom.

We simply HAVE to win this!!!!!

M5

Both sides look awfull at the back, we look slightly better up front, cracking game so far

M5

OMG, comical defending there!! was sure we'd give away another penalty

M5

feck ya taylor, if that was against us you'd a scored!!!!

M5

playing a very high line here, not too sure about that

M5

come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! taylor (S)

M5

HT, 3-1!!! Good performance, none of this sitting back at 2 up sh1te that we have seen on a few occasions this season and we should be grand.

M5

we are at it again, sitting back, should have been punished there

M5

Here we go!!!! 3-2

kinaldo

I was thinking at HT that WBA came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Hull last week. My heart can't take this.

M5

we look so nervous, fragile lead now! All WBA just like that

M5

jesus christ, its looking like a matter of time, we are 2/3 yards off the pace, Nolan and butt need to get a hold of the ball. Viduka on for Ameobi

M5

Xisco gets on!!!!! WTF???? :-)

Dave147

Jesus we were made sweat for that one! Good result away from home all the same

M5

Well we dont do anything the easy way, what a see saw. One up in no time, 1 all within seconds. Two goals and you think we are home and dry, but thats not the newcastle way!!! Off the pace in the second half, playing for the break away goal. WBA get the goal that was always going to come. After that we were hanging on. Crucial victory in the end with favourable results elsewhere it leaves us 4 points clear. fingers crossed liverpool and arsenal can do us a fav as well. 2 weeks off now to get the rest of the injured players back and the returning players fit!

JFK should be taken into hospital every week. Lucky charm that he wasn't there today.

Never should have let BUPA out of the Irish market, would never get a 3-2 win off the VHI...:D

Badly needed that win today!!! Was all smiles when I was reading the result!
I really miss Shay Given though, couldn't believe he actually left us this time.

On the other hand watching the highlights Ryan Taylor doesn't look to be a bad purchase!

Delighted to see Duffer get a goal

I was pretty impressed with him I must say. Not a sensational performance in any way but he did set up Taylor's goal. At least we've bot someone who is somewhat decent at free kicks.

I noticed while watching the game that he's got a bit of a short temper. Maybe he needs to just calm it down a bit.

As for our other signings, I thought Lovenkrands gave a good account for himself today and I think he looks to be a decent prospect for us. Nice simple tap in for him today.

I haven't really been all that impressed with Nolan yet. He hasn't done a whole lot. He was quiet in the Sunderland match last week but I was thankful for him clearing the ball off the line for us.
He was pretty quiet yesterday too from what I could tell but maybe it'll just take him two or three games to settle himself.

All in all I am satisfied with the result but we need to really sort out, not just our defence, but our whole mentality. Some absolutely shocking decision making from some of our players cost us. We were lucky to leave with three points instead of just one.

I can't really say if there was any stand out performances this week. I was able to pick at least three players for man of the match last week against Sunderland but I suppose if I was to pick someone this week it'd be Taylor. I know he cost us an equaliser but he did redeem himself by scoring and his determination after that was quite good.

A pretty scrappy match but we have to win ugly in order to avoid the drop.
