Freddie Woodman plays for Newcastle for the first time in over two years. He joins Fernandez, Clark, Ritchie, and Gayle as the changes from Doncaster.
There’s no Allan Saint-Maximin in the squad tonight as he is ruled out through illness. Darlow, Shelvey, Dubravka, Joelinton, and Manquillo are also absent from the squad with injuries.
Miguel Almiron has yet to return from holiday while Yoshinori Muto is not involved as his move to Aris Thessaloniki continues to progress. Emil Krafth and Fabian Schar make the bench after returning on Monday.
Midfielder Joe White joins Jack Young and Matthew Bondswell as U23s on the bench. It would be fantastic if the 18-year-old could get an appearance tonight.
Here is who Paul Warne has chosen for the hosts with Dan Barlaser in the starting eleven.
TEAM v @NUFC | Johansson; Harding, Ihiekwe, Wood (C), Wiles; Ogbene, Barlaser, Lindsay, Miller; Smith, Ladapo.
SUBS | Chapman, Hull, Durose, Trialist, Gratton, Sadlier, Greaves, Kayode. #rufc | #ForeverTogetherForeverProud pic.twitter.com/qocnosYWcj

If the blog was filled with charachters from Father Ted I see it this way
Toon 22……..father Jack Hackett Wor ……………father Noel Furlong
Jail………………father Dick Byrne
Mund……………..father Ted Crilly
Tuff………….,,,, bishop Brennan
Munster…………….father Damo
Romford…………… the dancing priest
Jane…..……..Mrs. Doyle

Apologies if iv upset anyone or your outraged I have left you out
Light hearted fun and all that
And if you haven’t seen Father Ted I have a suggestion for a old TV Prog you should watch

Comment #6How do we move forward with a waste of space owner? No money to spend. A fool for an owner and his assistant Chutney. Then you get to Brucie. It makes Monty Python look serious and sensible. How much longer? This may be the season we get relegated again because Mikey looks like he’s having another sulky snit.

If you’re reading, don’t let the CAT date get you down.
Chin up lad, go to the games if you’re paying for the ticket.

I think my He-Man bedsheets qualifies me for Dougal. Mrs Scythe wants rid of them but there’s no way it’s happening.
There’s nothing stupid about football! And there’s nothing at all stupid about the annual All-Priests Five-a-Side over 75s Indoor Football Challenge Match, against Rugged Island!

Comment #16Chris Waugh@ChrisDHWaugh
From the warm-up, it looks like it might actually be Matt Ritchie who is playing at right wing-back, with Hayden at the base of midfield, then Sean Longstaff & Ryan Fraser as the two “No 8s”. #NUFC

Comment #17Why on earth would Willock want to go to Monaco rather than come to us .
We can offer him stotties , greggs pasty’s , broon ale , savaloy dips , the best fish and chip shops in england , fantastic beaches , friendly people ,
What can that little Principality with 38 , 964 people possibly offer him 😀

Comment #19Given the delay in the CAT process, surely Ashley must sanction some realistic spend this window.

Comment #29Hmmmm….Brucie trying out some new “tactics” before Jones gets back. Hey boy…look at this lineup we put out…we were all over Rotherham….blah …blah…blah…. Oh and Monaco and Champions League football or Newcastle in the Winter for a young 21 year old??? Hopefully his dad and ASM talk him away from that disaster. 😛

Comment #30Wonder with Ashley taking PL to court and with the big 6 been implicated why then would they lend nufc their players might be reading to much into it but don’t think any team in big will loan us players unless we pay over odds can’t see that happening
