Shame about the other 20 odd windows. £7m a season he's spent, net. Beating our record transfer would be impressive if the previous record breaking transfer was remarkable in todays market, but it was £17m in 2005. You're right when you say the biggest difference will be mentality, having an...

Yes we are.

Espirito Santo clearly picked out our right flank as a weak area and we looked much better in the 2nd half after Hayden was shifted further right and higher up. Wolves didn't play well in either game, but over the course of the season I think you're playing the best football outside the top 6...

Alright lads, Geordie in peace. Well, it's all going pretty well for you this year isn't it? Good players, entertaining football, safety assured and a good foundation to push on from. We're a few wins away from safety ourselves and it's a shame that that is the limit of our owner's ambition...

I think you'd be surprised. Most people do their blog reading on the Monday so as long as the piece isn't just a blow-by-blow and speaks more on selection, on intangibles, on social media reaction, on the post-match interviews. Give you time to look for stats that back up/refute claims like "We...

Well, obviously we're both biased, but Mitrovic has a reputation and suffers for it. I think if Daryl Murphy had challenged your centreback he wouldn't have rec'd a yellow and had he challenged your 'keeper for a loose ball he wouldn't have been booked ther either. A second foul isn't (in my...

We sold/released/loaned 19 players, and brought in 12. Yes the team that started against Wolves had some from last season, but we were missing a few 1st choice players. Benitez has built a side that could challenge for the automatic spots and I maintain that no side, regardless of perceived...

Morning Lads, I think a draw would probably have been a palatable result for both sides and while Mitrovic's challenge on the 'keeper should probably have been a yellow, I don't think the first incident should have resulted in a card. It was obviously (and understandably) targeted by your lads...

That's a good preview, and much better than the usual fare I've seen from other sites, kudos. That said, in your piece and frankly most other comments on the season, Newcastle get quite a bit of criticism for not running away with the league. To be fair, we're on course for a 100pt season and...

As much as I love a proper cavalier, hell for leather, goalfest... I'd settle for a turgid, scrappy, undeserved 1-0 win this weekend. If Brighton drop points tonight at Shef Wed, we can steal a march on the title and calm a few nerves on Tyneside.

Cheers for the answers, as an aside, Gayle might be back, but I'd not be surprised if Rafa doesn't risk him. We've 6 away games in the next nine and 5 games in February. We need Gayle fit and firing for most of those.

Morning lads, Felt this was as good a thread as any to ask a couple of questions? Consensus up here is that Wolves are a counter attack side, and you seem to do better on your travels than you do at home. That being said, do you think Lambert will set up as if you're the away team against us...

Hi Lads, Just curious about your opinions about Leeds United and it's fans before Newcastle face them on Sunday. Safe to say Newcastle fans have their opinions, but I was wondering what the view of Wolves fans are. You can give a different perspective because you went down with them in 04...

Cheers, Don't take my frustration at the officials as anything but that. You 100% deserved the win and hopefully that result will give some of the players a kick up the arse. I'm thinking Shelvey, Perez, and Diame specifically. I'll be going tomorrow night with my 70 yr old dad, he sent me a...

Yeah probably, but that's kind of the point. Referee got so many things wrong, for both sides, it's ludicrous.

Well done lads, your boys were up for it from the off, pressed well and quickly. They won, kept and used the ball well and took their chances when they came. Thought the ref was shocking, for both sides, but that has never, in the history of man, been a red card. Quite a few fouls not given and...

Anyone going to the Newcastle game today, get there 15-30 minutes before kick off to see stuff like this If you are trying to get something similar sorted, get in touch with the lads behind it on twitter @gallowgateflags, they can help you avoid some of the mistakes they've made early doors.

To be honest it's us that should be thanking you. That big lump was playing under some inept tacticians but that doesn't absolve him of blame, and so for someone to pay actual real money for him is surely an act of gracious charity on their part.

This has genuinely shocked me, even before he took over at Newcastle I thought he was a decent bloke. Sure he was a bit undone with the whole "Facts" thing, but he never struck me as disrespectful or classless. Since he took over he's shown warmth, humility and a great deal of class, not just...

Guessing the dross is Hanley and Clark? Hard to argue that they're much more than bang average players, but we desperately needed bodies and they're decent at this level, especially when played amongst better players. What's the beef with Benitez? I understand Chelsea fans aren't keen, neither...
