I don't think 36000 is that bad on a Monday evening in January, I'd be surprised if that's not pretty close to our average Monday night attendance.

Especially as the bloody date was only confirmed a week earlier.

One thing no one can complain about this season is our attendances. They've been fantastic considering what they've had to put up with at home.

There is that 'Newcastle at home' feel about last night's game. Looking back, we gave it a good go in the second half and Benteke scoring is indeed huge. I just hope he gets them to play like that more often.

Counter-attacking is a very limited way to play. If the other team nab a goal or  two first, as happens with out defence(!), you are forced to attack anyway and we showed last night that we can attack quite well. Lowton's cross was real quality.
