Overall the news is good for Newcastle as Jonas Gutierrez and Joey Barton return to the squad for the Sunderland game, although Michael Owen will miss this important game.
Looks like Michael will also miss the game against WBA on Tuesday evening, but will be back on the following Monday evening against Aston Villa at home. That should be a great game with Aston Villa having made great strides under Martin O’Neil these last two seasons.
We don’t think either Jonas or Joey will start tomorrow but expect both two players to make up a strong Newcastle bench.
We fully expect the side to be unchanged from the team that started against Man City on Monday evening, given that Habib Beye’s unfortunate red card has been rescinded and he will start at the Stadium of Light.
Shay Given
Habib Beye, Steven Taylor, Fabricio Coloccini, Sebastien Bassong
Geremi, Nicky Butt (c), Danny Guthrie, Damien Duff
Oba Martins, Shola Ameobi
Subs: Steve Harper, Claudio Cacapa, Joey Barton, Jose Enrique, Charles N’Zogbia, Jonas Gutierrez, Andy Carroll
That’s quite a bench, which shows our lads are returning from injury, and there’ll soon be good competition for places.
For Sunderland, Kenwyne Jones (knee) made a return to action on Wednesday nights for Sunderland reserves, but the best he can probably expect is a place on the bench tomorrow.
This will be a tough game and for once Sunderland have to be the favorites and will probably look on this as their best chance to win a derby game at home against Newcastle, since way back in the 1979-1980 season.
If Newcastle are to get a result tomorrow the defense will need to play as well as they did on Monday night, when they had extreme pressure put on them, but with good organization and not a little fighting spirit they played magnificently.
Oba Martins and Ameobi up front both looked in form last Monday evening, and the central midfiled pair of Guthrie and Butt both had solid games in the center of the field, and they must have covered miles during the game.
We basically hope that we can play as well as we did on Monday, and hope the extra man will be enough to win the game. Joe Kinnear has again promised to have the players in the right frame of mind, and we can almost rely on that being true these days.
Joe has been successful in getting the lads playing together as a team with not a little enthusiasm, much like Kevin achieved towards the end of last season.
A win tomorrow is exactly what the lads and the fans need, and if can get those 3 points, we’ll look for a great crowd and a possible 3 more points on Tuesday night against WBA at home.
Six points in two games – it’s probably more possible than we think - let’s hope so anyway.
Howay the Lads!

Ed – You haven’t even got Xisco on the bench.
Also after Carrolls performance v Man City he does not deserve to be in the squad, Ranger does!
I’d love to see this team:
Given
Beye-Coloccini-Taylor-Bassong
Guthrie-Barton
Jonas-N’Zogbia-Duff
Martins
Subs: Harper, Cacapa, Enrique, Geremi, Butt, Ameobi/Ranger, Xisco.
I wouldn’t normally put Taylor in my team but he played well v Man City and he needs to be in he derby.

I dont know what i would enjoy seeing most out of:
1.Oba doing his flips infront of the mackems
2.Colo netting a header
3.Jonas getting his 1st goal for us
4.Barton scoring off the bench
9 Toon Army // Oct 24, 2008 at 8:16 PM
Nile Ranger’s in hot scoring form 12 in 12 now after his brace against the Mackem under 18’s tonight? You gonna do a piece on this Ed?
10 nate dawg // Oct 24, 2008 at 8:17 PM
my team would be

taylor beye colocini bassong
guthrie barton
jonas duff
martins shola
harper cacapa zog xsisco gerimi ranger enrique
i swapped beye with taylor mainly cause i worrid about the pace of cisse and cause thought he played very well against everton in the same position , wa ya think?
11 Robby Bobson // Oct 24, 2008 at 8:19 PM
Butt has apparently picked up a slight knock so needs a fitness test. This will mean that Jonas or Barton will start, but personally i would swtich Geremi in the middle and put Jonas out right
.
Also Ranger is at it again…bagged another two. Isn’t that 3 games and 6 goals in one week?
12 Tom_Toon // Oct 24, 2008 at 8:21 PM
ToonArmy – Its more like 12 goals in 8/9 games.
13 sweendog // Oct 24, 2008 at 8:24 PM
Robby Bobson .. heard that to .. I’d expect him to be replacd by barton then so the team will be
Given
Beye*** Taylor*******Coloconni ***Bassong
Geremi**Barton******Guthrie***Duff
Shola**Oba.
Mind you I’d like The spiderman on instead of geremi but sure we’ll just have to see
14 Shot Bru! // Oct 24, 2008 at 8:25 PM
I can’t wait to see the Jonas/Beye partnership develop over the season, i reckon they can turn out to be one of the premierships finest right sided combinations. It now looks like the excellent Bassong has staked a claim for the LB berth, and hopefully Duff is fully recovered from his injuries so we can have serious attacking threat from both sides.

Shola did well against City but looked knackered when he came off and as we know he changes from hot to cold like bathtaps.
Tom_Toon youre being way too harsh on Carroll as he was half fit and was chucked into a game he shouldnt have played in, Xisco has shown absolutely nothing to suggest the damage on the club his signing has caused was worth it.
Also Carroll has scored much more frequently for the reserves than Ranger has so i cant understand the clamour personally.
Is it only me who thinks that we could have finished 5th or 6th if we had put fair money down and signed Inler and Warnock as well as kept Milner as the improvement under KK was evident and such a shame we now have to start a fresh yet again when the new owners surface.
Anyway rant over 2-0, Oba will leave Tampon Ferdinand on his ass for the first and as i said last night Barton will score I feel it in my fingers, I feel in my toes…
C’Mon!!!
16 Spidey // Oct 24, 2008 at 8:30 PM
I agree with Nufc_DC’s team. Would start Jonas, I think he will be fit enough and will cause them all kinds of trouble. And with Butt being uncertain, it’s a good excuse to get Barton in there! Come on lads!!!

Its strange we have three ok left backs N zog is maybe better on the left wing but i think Bassong will turn out to be a good buy for us. He’s big,strong and young. Plenty of time to gain prem experience.Enrique hasn’t been up to much but would be ok for cover if injurys happen.

35 Shot Bru! // Oct 24, 2008 at 9:12 PM
Agree with you there Ally about playing Jonas, if JK thinks he is over his shoulder injury, then he should play him from the start. The lad is fit as a fiddle so would cope easy enough regarding match fitness. Jk’s only concern that it’s a derby match and the mackems will target him for some rough treatment.
36 sweendog // Oct 24, 2008 at 9:12 PM

37 norn iron magpie // Oct 24, 2008 at 9:12 PM
Thought the Falklands was in 1982. Score prediction- 0-8 (ha ha) i wish. I think it will be a tight match. 0-1 maybe.
38 Ally // Oct 24, 2008 at 9:16 PM
agree shot bru with ur comments mate, he is fit as a fiddle, so if he is on the bench i will be dissapointed.
my view would be if he is fit enough to be on the bench then he is fit enough to start.
this is arguably our biggest game of the season so we have got to play our best players that is the best chance of winning the football match
39 Craigg // Oct 24, 2008 at 9:16 PM
Tom_Toon nice to see sarcasm isnt dead
I hardly see what your Nan could have done more than Carroll, City kept the ball really well and as we were boxed in all Carroll could do was chase a few clearances pumped out from the back, He won the odd free kick and wasted a minute or two exactly what he was sent on to do.
He showed some class with that lobbed pass to Zog who mistimed his run, If he was onside and had scored we would all be saying what a great assist it was and most would want Carroll to start tomorrow.
Give him a break it took Drogba 2 seasons to look good in the premiership in a team that won back to back titles, Carroll has had one start and a few sub appearances in a very frustrating inconsistant team.

121 skin d // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:21 PM

we should get every player with pace playing we,ll kill them.
122 mozza // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:21 PM

123 norn iron magpie // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:23 PM
Big dave
Still here friend
124 mozza // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:23 PM

125 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:23 PM

129 Joey's going to get you!!(GG7) // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:29 PM
steel in our bellies would slow us down, colo to be pivotal tommorow
130 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:30 PM

131 mozza // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:30 PM
lol john thats the f***ing spirit, demolish them, then have one man and his dog slag his own fans of on the box afterwards, few peevs and a curry, magic
132 norn iron magpie // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:30 PM
Not nervous. Fcukin buzzing. I really think the turning point for the season is tomorrow. Barton will start because butt is injured. Joey is going to get some stick. How does the rest of the toon faithful feel about Barton?
133 KK FOREVER (Ross) // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:31 PM
skin-agree mate, oba will toast pascal and co tomorrow as far as speed goes. him n zogs could cause them problems. Give Jonas 30 mins or so and see how he does.
Would love to see a good game from charlie tomorrow, always youtube his goal against the scum when we did them 4-1 down their end , danced through a few and calmly slotted home. more of the same son!
134 Ganiyu // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:31 PM
Im sure of a result but not a win or point lost.
135 Joey's going to get you!!(GG7) // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:32 PM
cant wait to see joey back, he is my favourite player.
136 Big Dave // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:32 PM
I hope joey does get playing tomorrow as i think he would do well. as for Oba he can cause any team bother, and I would like to see Strolla play maybe he can get another goal at the sos. and Norn Iron im from Rathcoole mate
137 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:35 PM
more irish in the toon than scumderland
138 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:36 PM
where r the makem banterers
139 mozza // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:37 PM
norn i dont follow the witch hunt on barton, he was playing well at the end of last season and after the cctv footage came out, people got on their high horse about him, i can’t say nowt av been ne angel in the past mesell, i’d love him to be one of those players the opposition love to hate, because he destroys them and gets their backs up, imo
140 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:37 PM
show thyselves blastfemers
141 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:39 PM
ooo kenwyn what a big boy u r
142 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:42 PM
i remember taking the fulwell end when wyn the leap got the equalizer
143 norn iron magpie // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:42 PM
I think DG and JB in the middle of the park will do well. Full of energy and both can pass. I think Butt should be put out to graze.Its not because he is ex man u scum(wink wink.)
144 mozza // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:45 PM
reet of to me wa**ing chariot lads, keep the craic positive and lets put these sp**k bags in their place tomorrow, bring it on
145 john tudor // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:45 PM
nite matey
146 norn iron magpie // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:47 PM
No angel myself man. Found his interview on ssn very honest. Listening to radio 1 news today. Everyones all he’s an animal disgrace.
147 skin d // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:49 PM
sunderland are a bunch of glorified plodders imo,their fans are completley deluded if you ask me.
they seem to think they have good side,but if i was a mackem i would be questioning keane,s judgement.
they have spent nigh on 80mil the last year,and they are no further forward.
what does anybody else think?.
148 skin d // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:53 PM
i still think to coin a jfk phrase, he will be a negative c##t ,i think job lot will go 4-5-1.
149 norn iron magpie // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:55 PM
Keano bought players with prem league experience. Mostly ex spuds. If you spend that kind of money they need to be up there fightin for UEFA cup spots. Doubt that myself
150 skin d // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:58 PM
i also think niall quinn,s a bit of a wimp giving in to job lot,s whims.
how long is it going to be before quinny puts a padlock on the chequebook.
151 Ganiyu // Oct 24, 2008 at 11:58 PM
Any one got crack for football manager 08
152 norn iron magpie // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:04 AM
Agree skin d they need to be up there, spending big money like that. But its an irish group that bought the club with an irish chairman and manager. We all kind of stick together. Sorry man
153 john tudor // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:05 AM
“I approach the derby no differently now I am at Sunderland as I did when I was at Newcastle,” he said. “I’m a professional football and my job is to score goals, no matter who it is against. i hope joey doesent read the chronicle
154 norn iron magpie // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:08 AM
John tudor

156 skin d // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:12 AM
so you want to side with them just because their countrymen?.
157 Neville Brewis // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:13 AM
Hi its Neville here another Derby versus Sunderland. I am as excited now as I was at my first one back at St James park in 1933. It was 2-1 to us and I take that scoreline tomorrow. Hurley to score the 1st, Martins to equalise then Arentoft to guide us to victory. I will watch this one at my grandsons, could not get a ticket.
158 norn iron magpie // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:14 AM
I thought that was a type error. Did he say he was a football?
159 john tudor // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:14 AM

165 norn iron magpie // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:27 AM
He didn’t get his chance because he wasn’t good enough.He moved down to the championship.
166 Geordie Jayne // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:28 AM
I had to laugh someone on here actually asking what time kick off was tomorrow
167 norn iron magpie // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:30 AM

168 ASPRILLA // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:47 AM

169 brutooooon // Oct 25, 2008 at 12:49 AM
i would agreed with tom_toon. play zoggy over ameobi. play 5 midfielder with jonas, zoggy and duff supporting martins up front and barton and guthrie to stay at the middle.
170 Soccergoalx // Oct 25, 2008 at 7:36 AM
Newcastle will get their 3 points!!!
171 Rasko a.k.a Hadji // Oct 25, 2008 at 8:28 AM
I placed my money on Newcastle today,but i know i’m gonna lose cos its gonna end 1-1
172 brownrob // Oct 25, 2008 at 9:16 AM
Ganiyu, how about you stop being such a cheapskate and buy the game!!! Its about £4 on ebay ffs
Anyway, the game knows if you are using a crack and puts bad bugs in the game then
173 norn iron magpie // Oct 25, 2008 at 9:27 AM
Good morning everyone. Todays the day we beat the mackems.Again.Still think there will be one goal between us though.Maybe form will mean nothing. Its the biggest derby in England.
174 Darling27 // Oct 25, 2008 at 9:28 AM
Lets hope we win today and get our season back on track.
175 Darling27 // Oct 25, 2008 at 9:31 AM

Coloccini
Bassong
Jonas
Barton

176 sirjasontooon // Oct 25, 2008 at 9:45 AM

177 Darling27 // Oct 25, 2008 at 9:46 AM

His he an inbred redneck that has webbed fingers, toes sleeps with his sisters and farm animals or what?
