Newcastle v Forest Match Thread

4-3 full time, decent second half, just remember that miss from Elanga.
Also we got 7 extra minutes at the end of the first half, and only 3 minutes at the end of the second, seemed a bit short.

Well, credit for ‘2-0’ in the second half just a shame about that 12 minute collapse

Well that was dramatic!

Shame we didn't take one of the earlier chances, Elanga and Murillo header stands out!

Honestly can't remember only seeing 3 mins before, particularly with Subs and a goal in the half! Makes no sense at all

Newcastle raced into a 4-1 lead by halftime, game looked done. Forest showed spirit in the second half, pulling two back, with Ryan Yates scoring in the 90th minute to make it 4-3. Too little, too late, but fought till the end. No bother, keep going. KTF, COYR. 🔴⚪

3 minutes added time seems like what usually gets given when the result is beyond doubt like if it had stayed 4-1. However at 90 minutes that was anything but decided

Recent games added time was as follows

Fulham game 5 mins
Brighton game 10 mins
Bournmouth 9 mins
Southampton 13 mins

Sitting back and soaking up pressure isn’t working—we’re just crumbling under it. Time to be proactive, take the game to them, and set the tempo from the start.

My 10 year old nephew is at the game. His first Newcastle match.

Let's hope he enjoys the game and we win!

He enjoyed the game. Was very nervous the second half. Great exciting game though

Just tell the 10 year old that not all games are like that, though it is St James Park, so I could be wrong.
He’ll should certainly remember it for quite a while.
