Newcastle are a poor side but nonetheless a really decent controlled performance. If I was nit picking, there were times we could’ve really gone for the jugular by moving the ball a bit quicker, good stuff though.

Largely agree. We should have pressed on and got the 4th before putting the cue in the rack because we are always subject to an Eric Dier calamity.
Hats off to Dier and Reguillon for acting so quickly with what was happening off the pitch.

I did groan whenever they cut to Amanda Staveley in the crowd. You can almost hear the voice .. "Soccer is so much fun!". You probably had some random minion hand out scarves to wear about 2 minutes before they went out to the Director's Box as well.

We made it 'Proper Spursy', shudda put that game to bed with 2 or 3 more goals but we gave them a chance to go for the draw. But, it's getting better innit?

Personally I was screaming at the telly to stop showing that evil cunt and the evil cunts she was sitting next to. The most obscene TV shots were the Taliban Toon fans wearing their Saudi headgear, not fucking funny at all. I get it that you can't control who owns your club but celebrating that a bunch of murdering, torturing tyrants are the owners is sick as fuck. This is exactly what those cunts want, make the Saudis look like civilized human beings.

Another enjoyable Sunday afternoon, watching us play proper football again after a predictable start. Well done one and all, especially on a very professional attitude throughout, including the health scare in the stands.
I'm loathe to say it, as he was being played out of position, and I'm not a fan (yet) of Ndombele, but the team looks better with him rather than Dele in it and he managed 90 minutes yesterday, perhaps because we had half time twice? Somehow we are 5th in the table which is mildly astonishing and next week will be a real marker, the pikey's are playing well, let's see.
Anyway 3 really good goals in spite of Newcastle being very poor. I'm not commenting on the Saudi thing, because it might not be very long before the Qatari's, or some other dubious multi billionaire, shows up to pay the ENIC dollar and takes us over.
what was football is now moneyball and a lot of it is no fun at all.

You make a good point, but I've seen him be crap against some pretty awful sides as well. I just think he's the kind of guy where if he's not motivated, you aren't gonna get anywhere near his best. But maybe he's figured it out and he's lights out from here? He plays like that every week and we could potentially challenge for top 4. I'm no gonna bank on it though.

Hold on lads.. one performance where he isn't shit, don't forgive all the horse shit we've been served before.
I will say again... 100% effort is the minimum he can give and I'm yet to see him fit and driven to achieve the clubs goals.
Playing better is a start but it's still not anywhere near enough from someone with so much ability its almost criminal that they're not realising that potential.
Let's see how he likes being stuck on his arse and run ragged by a pikey kid called Declan who plays for the travelers side down the road... that kid will run and run and fight and bleed for every ball... match that for 90 mins and he stands a chance.

And as for Peter Drury fapping himself over the "rebirth" of Newcastle United...just fuck off you bootlicker cunt. Martin Tyler on his worst day is ten times the football man.

Agreed.
Fonseca a supposed front runner.
Imagine if he gets them playing exciting free flowing football what the fallout will be here.

To me, from afar & football aside, Bruce seems like a decent human being.

The thing that struck me about Sunday's game is that it looked almost as if some of our players had been training together. There were some really nice combination moves, and loads of individual skills that kept the team game flowing. I thought Ndombele would be done and sulk for the rest of the day after getting kicked in the first couple of minutes, but he got over it and even looked happy to be there. For a change Lucas looked like he knew where he was going when he got the ball, and Sonny was quietly as good as he always is. I'm still very cross with Harry Kane, but my word he's a good footballer when he puts his mind to it. Even Reggie looked like he'd been allowed to practice with the big boys.
I won't blame anyone for their first goal, it was just a good goal. And I won't blame Eric for their second - I really should, but I won't.
We have a tendency to play down to the level of the opposition, but I guess we can't drop as far as Newcastle's slop. Well done first 11, keep it up. Now let's see what the second 11 can do against Vitesse
