Yes. Special dispensation since all our other kits clashed.

This has probably been answered before, but why are Newcastle allowed stripes on the backs of their shirts?

Has Cédric ever stopped a cross getting in the box? Absolute useless c*nt. I’d be fuming if I was Valery and being kept out by him

Are there rules on stripes playing against stripes??
If you're watching in black and white red and white is black and white.

Djenepo seems to have lost a bit of confidence. Maybe those misses vs Arsenal on his mind?

 

Yeah he's not really been in the game today. Would think about replacing him with Boufal at HT, because Newcastle are there to be got at.

Half time.

 

Meh, we're not losing, but we've been much the better team really. An on-form Redmond would have scored at least one of those chances.

 

If this was a boxing match we would be ahead on points. We just have to wait for the Shelvey sucker punch - I'm going for 63 minutes.

First 30 mins I thought we were pretty decent. Some nice quick football. JWP probably our best player.

 

Last 15 we seemed to lose our way a bit and started giving away free kicks.

The misses aside, Redmond gas been much better today. Busy, looking to get forward and make things happen

Redmond off for Boufal.

 

So many great crosses in the box not being met. Second half will be tougher.

 

Why, he's looked good to me? Save Boufal for the 70 odd minute mark if we're still not winning, then bring him on.

Bouf for Jenny for me. Jenny's off day today

Bright first half I thought. Could go either way second half.

 

Newcastle haven't offered up much, although we aren't great with clearances. If you put a ball in our box or hoof it long, we look shaky.

 

Think we need a bit more in midfield to get the ball forward quicker. If it falls to Ings or Djenepo in a good position, think we'll nick it 1-0

It's a bit of a bore fest. In the early stages we closed them down well and pressed high up the pitch, but then we have passed it around more at the back and Newcastle don't seem interested in committing themselves up the pitch to regain possession. We have been dominant in midfield and looked the more threatening. Ralph will be the more content of the two managers at half time. He can leave it as it is for the moment and see what Newcastle do before making changes to exploit that, or to introduce players who can give us something different.

DAZN showing a highlights package of Shearer goals at half time. All Blackburn and Newcastle. Like, umm, he played for both the teams you are showing today. Lazy, lazy research. Coulda had some Shearer Saints goals in there.

Need to get a lead to hang onto for when we inevitably hit the wall after an hour.

I'm not so sure about that. It's not like we have had to be anywhere near top gear to compete so far. Newcastle have sat back a lot so we won't have burnt ourselves out. Have to see how the 2nd half plays out though.

Not bad.

Djenepo trying to get into the game, although his runs have been ignored a bit.

 

I feel though we at least have 10 players all trying to go in the same direction.

 

Plus Cedric.

Newcastle aren't coming out of their own box unless we score. if we get lucky and grab a scrappy one then we will have space for djenepo And co. to have a field day, as they will be leaving space behind looking for the equaliser.
