Wrong tactics deployed unfortunately
We’ve sat back all game and just allowed Newcastle to pressurise us - Cooper will learn fast that you cannot do that in the Premier League
If we approached this game like we did Leicester/Liverpool last season we’d have given them more of a game that this sad effort
Seriously Nick Pope won’t have an easier game all season - not a single shot to save
Oh well. We knew we would lose more than we would win this season. Didn't think Newcastle would be that good. Live and learn. Bring on West Ham
Early days though, its a big step up and maybe a good game to start with, not a total annialation, and not expected to get owt really, and they will have easier games
Why didn’t we play the rest of the game like we did the last 8 minutes - we at least crossed the half way line even if we were totally impotent up front
Perfectly summed up ‘reality check’. If we take only one thing away from this game its, you can’t give the ball away cheaply. It’s hard to criticise as we had so many new faces, but we need to take care of the ball better, and try and get a shot on target. Not the end of World but a taste of what to expect. I actually hoped to be a bit more competitive but i seriously think the Mags will finish top 10 if not top 8.
Early days yet, worse aspect was the 5Live commentary!
Next Saturday we’ll have a completely different approach - definitely points there for 🫶🏼
Or even Sunday when we play the ‘ammers

yeah, that’s the one
No Jon Moss helping today..... 😉
Yeah, we could definitely have done with him. … in fact we’ll need all the help we can get. Guess your season hasn’t started as you’d have hoped, but take comfort, we were bottom after eight games, so you have plenty of time turn it round.
Yea, but you took 2 of our best players 😂, it's tough in that division.... Enjoy

scout/recruit/develope weatherby!
The Greek even nicked your manager, that really is rubbing salt into an open wound. But your right it is tough in then Prem, but the championship is no cake walk, as you said enjoy. Who knows how long it will last. Good luck for the rest of the season.
In 2017/18 we started our first Prem season with 7 points from 3 games, Inc wins at Palace & home to Newcastle... Get points early... It's soooo tough
