At the moment he absolutely is.

A statue next to Ted Bates is the only truly appropriate tribute to this monumentally important player.

We simply do not have enough creativity, guile, or inventiveness to break down teams who come looking not to lose the match rather than to win it. After coming not to lose but scoring a worldy early on Liverpool just closed ranks and watched the 3 points roll in. Notwithstanding all that the ref was some kind of indescribable form of C U N T. Good night.

Agree Elia has been ****e. Not convinced by him whatsoever.

Yet again, an utter c unt of a ref

Sometimes you've just got to smash the thing and see what happens. Will remain positive but we don't look like having enough goals in us to finish top four as things stand.

Nice footage. Tbf though Fonte's thunderbolt that crashed back off the bar was a purer strike as can be clearly seen from this clip.....

OMG. Moments like that could make a man start believing that maybe, just maybe, we are going to do this top 4 thing.

Correct.

Why do you do this Granite man? I for one would like to read your views and opinions.

I know what they mean about the youth policy. You only have to go back a couple of yrs and Newcastle were churning out top players from the ranks like nobody's business. Who doesn't remember the likes of.......................er.............................

Agreed Charlie fella. It can and will be coached out of him though, and he WILL become the perfect keeper IMHO.

Agreed on all 3!!!!!!!!!! Fexsakes this is getting silly. Totally deserved again though. Thought Reed was utterly brilliant, looked like he'd been busting up play in the Prem for years rather than a few games. C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES!!!!!!They've been asking for that ever since we came back up. We have got a team and squad to be SO proud of, mixing it with the big clubs on a fraction of the budget. C'mon!!!!!!!!!

Lighten up Charlie. If we do lose, which admittedly is a statistical likelihood, is it really "pretty much it for the season"?

Wise words mate. Was all ready to enjoy a good victory but then you reminded me that Spurs and Liverpool both won so all is lost. Oh well, at least the pressure is off now.

So have I

Most pleasing win of the season without doubt. Had low expectations but the lads did us proud. C'mon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, what a fecking w@nker. HTF could anyone not give those 2 fouls against Long? On the flip side, if Pelle breathes near a blue shirt it's a foul.

WTF has happened to us. Utter ****e deserved to lose. Struggling to put out a full eleven against Everton so 6 defeats in a row looks nailed on.

FFS. They were there for the taking and we handed to them with silly errors. Forster needs to be more decisive, get off his line and command his area like the giant he is. Mane needs some time off.

Agree Mane looks carp at the moment after a promising start. He's gone from getting in good positions and missing sitters to not getting in good positions and missing wildly with long shots. Just looks a bit flaky for 10M at the moment. Hopefully be ok eventually as he's definitely got something.

This. Back in the day a point away at Villa would have been seen as a major, major point gained. Should really have won really, just one awful feckup cost us. That was so flat tonight, hopefully a one of and we are right back up for it on Sunday.

On my stream the commentator keeps calling him "Prebber". Ludicrous.
