Hayden injured already. So a make shift defence is after being make shifted again !

I personally think dummet should have been CB anyway... Haidara is strong enough for LB... hayden is a bigger loss in midfield imo

Hopefully haidara is fit enough to do 80 minutes.. dont think he has played at all this season.

I'm not a Newcastle fan but I'm delighted for your club and particularly Rafa well done some finish with Brighton only drawing.

GHOST MGG

grealish and villa doing newcastle a big favour

Salmon

Just WOW! Dramatic stuff!!! Love that Grealish lad!

Well done lads. Hopefully weds will join you soon

LuckyLloyd

Congratulations on a great season. As a Rafa Benitez fan was very happy to see Villa do ye a favour. As I've said before, the Premiership is better with Newcastle in it.

After all the last minute kicks in the teeth this season, we end up benefiting from the biggest of them all!

That was a long hard slog and I'm delighted we are leaving it behind. Fingers crossed there won't be another lurch thus summer!

Duff

God-esque.

Blazer

Jealous of any one over there now, it's gonna be a mental weekend in Newcastle

GT_TDI_150

Delighted!

What a smashing way to finish a long long season. Over the moon. Hopefully Ashley gives a blank cheque to rafa and we can see how a couple years of stability with a top top manager can do.

Oh what I'd give to be in the Strawberry now!

Same at FT, score announced, followed by 20 mins of hearing how great Redknapp and Mowbary are, then highlights of all the matches, interviews with players and managers, then we see our goals at 2.25 and soccer saturday ends. No footage of trophy being lifted or celebrations.

I dont watch sky any more as a rule, prefer no commentary/analysis to the cliche spouting old boys club!

What a game and end to the season! I was lucky to be there and the atmosphere at the end was incredible. Although the Barnsley fans were louder for most of the game!!

Benitez is staying, fantastic news!

Hopefully long enough to bring in the right players

Yes. This is Newcastle with Ashley at the helm.

fitzparker

Ashley/benitez statement today is promising.. for the summer at least. Benitez can have" Every last penny the club generates through promotion and player sales"

That's a bold statement. What are talking £80- £100 million?

The rafalution is in full flow!

By all means fly a banner over taking the piss, no issues at all there as we've got to take it as well as give it, but this is absolutely vile. Genuinely shameful.

Thankfully, it seems the majority of Newcastle fans are against the idea and are trying to get it stopped via - #StopTheBanner

Think you might want to read that again Paully. A message of support for Bradley lowry will be flown

They genuinely meant well with it, but the wording doesn't help. If they're going to fly a banner over your stadium for a dig, have at it. If they're going to fly a banner over your stadium in support of that poor young lad and show unity against cancer, fantastic. They're making a big mistake by combining the two messages though. It was just poorly thought out.

M5

Stupid idea that was turned into a fundraiser. Don't see the issue really. Family of kid involved support it.

Perhaps better donate the money from the plane / banner though

~Rebel~

Even just reversing the message would make it much stronger.
Putting the positive first and following up with the negative leaves a bitter taste, and prioritizes the dig.

Reads much better if switched - playful, but well meaning;
"Divided by leagues - United by Cancer"

(though the line 'united by cancer' could really be clearer)

martyos121

More good news today for the club, Atsu has agreed a permanent move. Was quite impressed by him most of the time this past season, it isn't the paciest squad without him so he definitely offers that at least, and his shooting has visibly improved since he joined.

fitzparker

I know I'm mentioning about the "other side" but would love to hear other people's opinion.

Jermaine Defoe - best friends with little Bradley who is sadly infected by a life threatening illness, saw today on the news he was at his birthday party

Where does he go from here? Free to go where very he likes. But what a tough decision for the lad

Seannew1

I love this part of the close season, when we are linked to practically everyone in the league!

That_Guy

Pity West Ham got in first for Zabaleta. I'd have taken him in a heart beat. We're also being linked to Jesus Navas. Not sure about that one.

fitzparker

yeah i would have definitely gone for him... we need to add pace and Navas could give us that for 1 maybe 2 years, Clichy on a free also?

romour of us being linked with tabby Abraham on loan and Ihenacho aswell

GT_TDI_150

Theres a few defenders getting linked .... strange for us

Seannew1

Mangala, Fernando, Reina and Batsuiyi would be players I'd go for. Good core players who would go straight into the side.

fitzparker

Pepe Reina.. Really?

we already have 4 keepers and i think Krul and elliot are premier league quality (once they have someone decent in front of them)

Yes. We need more leaders and Reina is a leader. We seriously lacked leadership skills over last 4-5 years.

Timmy will only get injured come winter ayway.

With the few young keepers at the club id have no issye with selling sels and krull and possibly elliot to fund other positions if reina was a replacement for the 3 lads with darlows as number2
