Fcuk. Adam Johnson is just quality. How he doesn't start every game is beyond me.

I really dont understand how he doesn't. He can just pick defenses apart at ease. A really great player

bazual

seriously how much has this ref been paid

M5

We absolutely do not deserve to loose here. we should be 2:1 up not 2:1 down

We must be one of those big four types now

JohnnyRyan99

AJ didnt start cause he played the whole match against Juve during the week, Mancini, it seems doesn't want to overuse him. Maybe he judged the Juve match to be a bigger game than this, so started AJ mid week.

Never a penalty that at all.

Might have been a different story if the ref awarded it though.

Close from Williamson.

Huge chance for Newcastle - Vieira's comng on

JohnnyRyan99

Adebayor is a terrible man to win header's for his size. Now he cant even deal with Sol Campblol one on one, terribley frustrating player!

bazual

Campbell had a great season last year according to the Arsenal lads on this forum.....

Viera's first contribution a kick on Jonas

The Walsho

Would much prefer Bellamy than Adebayor.

Xavi6

Silva's a lovely little player on the ball

JohnnyRyan99

Jesus i hate Lescott

Lol one tackle and we're off :rolleyes:

Man of the match, Adam Johnson! Ridiculous.

bazual

Well, all i can say is after spending over 100 million on players, whats another one or two million to a ref to throw a few penalty decisions.

Robbed

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

MOTM - Adam Johnson - is that a joke??

M5

3 games this season already where we have lost when deserving at least a draw. Thats a lot of points dropped for a team in our position. But if we play like we did today we should be ok.

"newcastle lack a bit of quality up front" what 20k in a brown envelope quality? :P idiot "expert analyser"

Ah now. We were robbed but they hardly paid off the ref.

JohnnyRyan99

Credit to Newcastle deserved better, but as a City fan very releived to ge the result! Staying out of this forum now cause the hating is just begining!

Newcastle robbed really City didn't deserve anything out of the match imo

Xavi6

BOOM!

Ordinary man

Come back to us when ye win a trophy:D:D:D:P

Hardly the greatest City performance, but I'm chuffed with the win. Thought Newcastle did really well in fairness and they were unlucky with a couple of the decisions.

I'm pissed off too mate but time to regroup. We should be beating Wigan tbf.

Can't believe the match today.
We clearly deserved a point from that at the very least.
Ben Arfa - Suspected broken leg, disgraceful tackle from de Jong - Just like the World Cup Final.

Can't really see Ben Arfa's career coming back on track after that, at least at Newcastle.


Really scandalous refereeing. Robbed isn't the word.

If City think they can win the league, they're fooling themselves. There's very little in that side to indicate they can finish in the top 4 - and yes, I'm being deadly serious.

Bollox tbh

Played poor, still win. That's top four material.

Tackle was not malicious, Ban Arfa was terribly unlucky for sure but there is no way DJ tried to break his leg, it's ridiculous to even suggest so.

Unbelievable you're actually questioning his Newcastle career when there isn't even any confirmation yet, typical knee-jerk reaction.

As for poor referring, well welcome to the premiership, happened us last year against Utd. and now this year you got a couple of bad decisions, get over it.

City might not win the league, but currently they sit 2nd, and that is after a fairly poor start to the season and it's a long way to go, I doubt any City fans expect to win the league and if we get top4 will be delighted.

Now grab your toys and get them back into the pram.

Thing is, it's always poor from City. There's no chance they'll win a league like that. All the money, all the players ye've recruited - plenty of time for gelling - hasn't happened.

I'm not being spiteful here, because I'm extremely confident Newcastle United will accomplish this season what they've set out to do - avoid relegation, but to be perfectly frank, we were a far better passing side than City today.

A sub who played less than 20 minutes got MOTM - laughable to say the least.
Tioté had Toure in his pocket for the whole match, and cleaned up pretty much everything in midfield.

Ye got a Manchester City ref, giving an extremely generous penalty, and waving away what would be a stonewall penalty elsewhere on Ameobi.

My point being, there's no league in City this year, top 4 if very very lucky.
If I'm wrong, I'll start a thread, accepting that I was wrong but I cannot see that happening this year anyway.

Best of luck for the future, but I'd much rather be investing in bargain buys this season like we've done this year for a change, rather than dishing out overinflated prices for 'the finished' articles.
