Gordon, Hall, and Isak Start Against Brighton



Newcastle are back in action after the October international break. The competition is stiff as Newcastle enter what could be a revealing stretch of matches. Today Brighton come to St. James Park in a battle between the sixth and seventh placed clubs.

This is who Eddie Howe has named for today’s match. It has two changes from the draw at Everton with Alexander Isak back leading the line.

Here is the side Fabian Hurzeler has selected for the Seagulls with Yankuba Minteh not in the squad.

This is a massive fixture despite it still being early. Newcastle have played better of late but to Howe’s admission, have not yet reached top gear. That may need to happen today to get all three points against a very talented Brighton side.

Howay The Lads!

    Bills we might as well ask, what should the reaction be if we lose out next 3?

    Or if we draw today and lose in the cup and Arsenal.

    I can guess what the reaction of some will be bed wetting incoming

    If you call being pissed off if we lose 3 games including a cup match as “bed wetting”, that’s up to you, if it makes you feel in some way superior.

    Bills
    Keegans team were bullies who smashed teams at home and midtable teams and lower away from home.
    When they had to go away to the top teams and defend a bit, they folded.
    Basically the defence was not good enough. There were no tactics except attack and managers knew what to do.
    Great times mind you

    He told us šŸ˜† šŸ˜† šŸ˜†

    He might of waffled but nobody took a blind bit of notice.

    There was no budget and you didn’t talk about PSR until it was here so you knew nothing of it so you told nobody anything other than your negative waffle just to get a reaction.

    Wait tho lads he coached grassroots

    Of course I didnt talk about psr, it didnt exist ! Ffp did though, and you claimed it wasn’t an issue. Just like the rumour of ashworth leaving wasn’t an issue. Anything that isn’t a happy story is a non issue to you. No budget biggest or second biggest investment fund in the world? That’ll be the Daewoo

    Actually not correct Ledge but you’re quite obsessed with my time in coaching too. Which is a bit weird but takes all types.

    ā€œI know the answer to this, I kind of know the answer to this. There is no budget. Certain people have put a number on it, and of course Financial Fair Play is going to be a factor, but there is no budget, I don’t think they’re putting any number on it at the moment, so they’re just going to see what happens if the right player becomes available. What they won’t do is overspend one people,ā€ Graves said.

    Are you for real…?

    It’s the changes to the rules since the takeover thats halted our progression. An anti-competitive league that’s full of corruption. If we didn’t have those changes we’d of spent a fortune by now so yes in the beginning it wasn’t an issue until the rules were changed.

    All you have is lies to go off. What a life and a sad way to try to win an argument,

    Never once said Ashworth wasn’t going anywhere. You love talking about the rat don’t you, takes one to know one I suppose.

    You have no idea who or what age I coached or if I still do. I’ve said I’m a coach of grassroots and that is all.

    Does it give me any inside to Eddie and his job…? Absolutely not!

    You have no sense of reality

    Mund you told me specifically ” don’t believe anything that isn’t from the club” a month or less before Ashworth news broke. You may think you didn’t, or else you’re having me on. It’s classic Mund, don’t say anything unless it’s positive. Otherwise you’re not a proper fan eh?

    It’s funny how the phrases happy clappers and bedwetters have emerged. Bet Ledge you wouldn’t have used that expression before, now it’s your go to mantra. Getting down with the kids.

    No I never… you get confused a lot.

    I said never believe anything from the media.

    Which is solid advice considering 99% of its BS. You have used that to say I said Ashworth wasn’t going anywhere which I never but that’s what you do twist the truth to suit your narrative.

    This only positive line is tiresome as well as I’m quite critical when needs be but what I don’t do is wet my pants when something isn’t going right.

    All you’ve ever done is twist the truth which I’ll never understand but I guess when you’ve got no argument that’s what you gotta do

    The best coaching badges here would belong to RH, but guys like Sumo plain to know more! Lol.

    I only have some FAI courses under my belt. So more than most, for what they are worth šŸ™‚

    But I’m football savvy enough, or as knowledgeable as most.

    Mund, your friend Sean Casey is very football savvy by the way, although you think he’s a charlatan lol

    No munster, Im not really bothered to tell you the truth i have coached at simlar level to yourself at grass roots level albeit with the older age group. I just wanted a bit of clarity about your “coaching ” because we all know on here you like to bend the truth quite a bit .

    As I said, coached and trained more than the majority on here. RH has clearly coached at a higher level. Even if Mund won’t accept that lol. Doesn’t suit the argument.

    So Ledge I’d put my football savvyness at a reasonable level, yes, and like you, have had to run games, fk knows how many, make tactical switches, make changes in shape etc.

    Two FAI courses done. I think thst puts me in good nick overall in terms of savvy.

    No doubt Fenners will be on shouting in a while but “it is what it is” to borrow a much loved phrase on here

    Like I’m bothered what a bloke from Boro who can’t name 10 away grounds he has been to, thinks about my nufc support, which is both longer and deeper than yours, Mr Home Town Deserter.

    I wonder if Boro had been better than NUFC back in the day, wud he have supported NUFC?

    I used to get all the flack on here but my negative footy comments just get ignored these days. I am feeling a bit neglected.
    Footy is a side issue and it’s all about the Bedwetters and Clappers show.
    By the way there is a footy game today if you are interested.
    Where is Fenners when you need him.? A. Bit of Mackem abuse Fenners if you please.
    I normally predict a win but I would be happy with a goal and 1 v 1

    I’m a geordie and was taken to SP from the age of 8, and I couldn’t give a rats where any NUFC fans come from

    Just because people may not agree with a self entitled half wit such as yourself doesn’t make them non NUFC fans. You’re the biggest man child I’ve ever heard prattle and whinge on with the most cretinous and continuous BS.

    More people like me than you Rotonda. YCMIU !!! If that’s Fenners and co then OMG look what I could have won.
