Newcastle United vs Aston Villa Match Thread

Blimey Pope had to do something, catch the ball!

Newcastle have a very defined plan on how to play and they’ve stuck to it for a good while. We went from Dean Smith’s traps, to Steven Gerrard’s look me in the eye and roll up your sleeves plan to handing the reigns to two blokes who have nothing to lose but do their best. It might get uglier under Emery before it gets better. But at least it will be a plan he will want us to adhere to and learn. Our players look fucking awful and lost.

This team having to scrap its way out of trouble is a terrifying thought.

The end of the Aaron Danks era. It’s been a hell of a ride.

No shots on target...embarassing

What’s the excuse this week? The coach has gone, they’ve come off the back of an 4-0 win and the slightest sign of a battle and the white flags go up.
It must be Danks’ fault surely?

How the hell can you blame Danks?

We have a repugnant whiff of relegation about us at the moment.  4 - 0 is flattering.  It honestly could be 8 or 9. 

We're rubbish away from home. That's on Gerrard for wasting so many winnable fixtures already. Tough ask for Emery to turn things around when we've still got to play both Manchester clubs, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs all on the road.

3 wins from first 6 at VP is decent though so that's something to build on at least.

Mirror image of lasts weeks match.

Worst performance of the season. What a bunch of fucking wasters.

[Axl Rose]

A pathetic performance.

[Deano's Mullet]

Deja vu from 2010. Caretakers tea spanks someone at home ,.Next week we are spanked at Newcastle.

[markeeeebeeee2005]

Well that’s knocked some of the positivity out of me.

[Villa in Denmark]

What's the penalty for making too many subs 'cause I reckon the jawdee nation have made 6?

[PeterWithesShin]

Newcastle have been very well coached for nearly a year, we've been badly 'coached' by Gerrard and crew for nearly a year. This is the difference that makes.

Well you could blame the players but if your manager fucks it up then it’s all down to Gerrard

[Risso]

Too many shit players. One good game in 5 is nowhere near good enough.
