Newcastle United v Aston Villa - Pre Match Thread

[CT]

I guess it depends if the players are actually going to give everything or not.

I think we'll lose 3-0 😒

[Quiet Lion]

3-0 them, it will be their worst performance of the season and they will outclass us in every department.

They will also pass the torch of Premier League Comedy Club on to us, it will be painful

[ez]

1-0 defeat.

[TheWarlock]

Heavy defeat 3/4-0

Will start brightly but will concede a soft goal before half time and implode 2nd half.

[Hillbilly]

At time of writing 27 think we are going to win.  Delusional.

[Goldie.7]

If I see the usual bullshit appear on the OS from some of the players, talking about how up for it and determined they are, add a couple more goals for the toons onto my previous prediction above.

[Marlon From Bearwood]

I said on Sunday that I'd never seen a team look so low on confidence. Therefore the only way to kickstart our season is likely to be making several changes to the starting line up and trying something new. I'd go

Bunn
Richards Okore Clark Kinsella
Veretout Gana Gardner
Gill
Adama Ayew

[tony scott]

Right if they win its three on the spin not easy !  We are now closer to our next victory with that in mind 2:1 a goal for Vertout and Westwood.

[Yossarian]

3-0 them, it will be their worst performance of the season and they will outclass us in every department.

If only I could write this off as the ramblings of an online depressive. Unfortunately, I think this is exactly what will happen.

Hate to piss on your bonfire but Gardner does not have a return date according to Physio room, and Richards will probably struggle to be ready in time

[Goldie.7]

Guzan

Hutton
Okore
Lescott
Bacuna

Sanchez
Gueye
Veretout

Traore
Ayew

Kozak

Can't stand Hutton but who else?

[UK Redsox]

Mega respect to those making the journey but unfortunately we are never going to reach let alone turn a corner and the law of averages doesn't apply.

A significant defeat which will remove any remaining vestiges of morale.

Probably the lowest point in our season to date.

I bet it rains too.

It only took about ten minutes after I booked my ticket, train and hotel for me to wonder what the feck I was thinking.

I'm also thinking of going to the Gateshead v Woking game earlier in the afternoon

Hutton

Can't stand Hutton but who else?

Richards, Ilori or Crespo if any are fit?

That front 3 has got to be worth trying, Gabby and Gestede are not the answer up front, Sinclair is poor and Ayew would be much better cutting in from the left.

[Pete3206]

I'm going for a flukey 1-0 win. Despite the previous 2 results, Newcastle are prone to self destruction.

[Jon Crofts]

2 pub teams.  I'm going for a 9-6 home win.
