Tales from the Toon. The ups and downs of an NUFC supporter....

Was saying earlier, Krul hardly had a save to make.

Great game. Ba, Cabaye, Tiote, Colocini, Krul - superb backbone to the team.

Would have had a chance of finishing above Chelsea if you didn't lose Ba for a month.

Was also impressed with Santon, plus Simpson picked it up after crappy game vs Liverpool.

Best game I've watched as a neutral this season. You have the makings of an excellent side.

I'd have all the players I mentioned in the Chelsea team ahead of their own, except Krul. Santon just needs to be playing regularly, could also be a great player!

Funny thing is I'm not confident for us against Blackburn at the weekend, think the boys will be tired and without Ba/Tiote we're gonna struggle.

Krul was seemingly quiet but was very competant on Free Kicks And Corners

A very solid unit that could be a real threat this season if they spend big on a striker to play along side Ba...Somebody in the Dean Sturridge or  Javier Hernandez mould

What? This is mental. I'd have George Elokobi over Cech in goal.

I am pretty sure Pardew will pull out a gem when it comes to signing a striker, his buys so far haven't been too shabby. 

A striker who might be worth taking a chance on who I think could do a decent job for Newcastle and wouldn't cost a bomb is Jelavic who plays for Rangers.  He's clever and has pace and is pretty strong.  I have read QPR are interested but he's be ideal for Newcastle.  I think he could be had for around 5.5 million - 7 million tag as Rangers look to be in massive financial trouble.

Jordan Rhodes - best finisher outside of the prem.

your replacement for collo next summer ? (scroll to bottom)

[NoflopsHomer]

Also hasn't been mentioned but Mike Williamson - solid.

[maldini32]

When you lot signed Santon I was shocked he went there. The guy is absolute class and needs regular games.

Demba Ba put on the most complete centre forward play I've seen all season.

You really do have an excellent side up there.

[sweet potata!]

Agree about Ba tonight, was very very impressed he tormented united, brilliiant result lads!
