Today was a bad day but you're always going to have them in this division.Newcastle lost home and away to Blackburn last season.Worry if we don't beat Sunderland and Ipswich. I expect a decent points haul up to xmas.Loving the table at the bottom btw. Will be some good trips for Walsall next year.

Newcastle lost 10 times last season. Today was only our fourth defeat with just over a third of the season gone.You could feasibly lose 15 games and get promoted if you barely drew a game.We're still in the top 6 aren't we?
I want top 2 but let's at least establish ourselves in the play offs and try to build from there.
We're going nowhere with one fit centre half. Samba doesn't count.
If Leeds and Boro both win then we'll be out of top 6. Derby and Ipswich both have games in hand as well. Nonetheless overall I'm reasonably pleased with our record since the last international break, I was worried about it beforehand. Minimum 10 points from next 5 to cement top 6 and hopefully cut gap to top 2.
We draw too many to make up for the defeats. Imagine never drawing like Sheff Utd, it must be amazing. Still, with their resources it's difficult to compete.
