@geordiejosh Bore off ya nerd

@AdamP1242 Well not not mention all the times he has saved us though. Not the only person who made a mistake today.

@kendallrowanx Better at what, handing out the bibs?

@Magpie24_7 All sounds very familiar. https://t.co/PneG9pbdD3

As reported a couple of weeks ago with @GraemeBailey, Ross Wilson is heading to Newcastle United.

Hopefully it’s third time lucky for PIF and #NUFC, having seen Dan Ashworth and Paul Mitchell depart.

Great news for Eddie Howe 🤝

Newcastle should have paid more for Nick Woltemade, idiots. #NUFC

[James Rutherford @HitcJames]

Winning a trophy? Embarrassing.

The most tinpot thing I have EVER seen

Difficult team selection for Eddie Howe this weekend against Arsenal.

He doesn't deserve to be dropped, but I fear Sven Botman could be replaced by Dan Burn. #NUFC

Really enjoyed Lewis Miley's performance last night. There were a few mistakes, but they came from him being brave in possession and trying to make things happen. #NUFC

Job well done this evening. Bruno Guimaraes the star of the show for me. Botman and Miley excellent as well. #NUFC

An interesting #NUFC story with @GraemeBailey this morning.

🇧🇷 As well as Tino Livramento, Man City also asked about Bruno Guimaraes this summer.

❌ Unsurprisingly, Newcastle swiftly said no.

[James Rutherford @HitcJames]

The Lewis Miley criticism has been harsh. He did alright against Bournemouth, once again showing why Eddie Howe trusts him to start.

But there is certainly room for improvement in one key area.

Newcastle's lack of goals feels more like bad timing than a systematic issue. Woltemade finding his feet, Wissa injured, Barnes out of form, Gordon suspended.

Things will click into gear. #NUFC

[James Rutherford @HitcJames]

@Frances86761484 Got to try keep the glass half full! Bournemouth have started the season so well, and we always struggle against them.

[James Rutherford @HitcJames]

Not a bad point for Newcastle given the circumstances. Defended excellently, great to see Sven Botman play so well.

Worryingly limp in attack, but that should soon change with Anthony Gordon's return.

Take the positives and move on. #NUFC

[James Rutherford @HitcJames]

With Fabian Schar set for a spell on the sidelines, Malick Thiaw picked the perfect moment to announce himself as a Toon player.

Great cameo against Barcelona, excited to see what he can do in Schar's absence. #NUFC

Disappointing result, but that’s what happens when you don’t take your chances against a world class team. This game won’t define our Champions League campaign.

Pedri btw, one of the best players I’ve seen at SJP. #NUFC

[James Rutherford @HitcJames]

That's a great strike from Leo Shahar. Won't be too long before he is impersonating Kieran Trippier in the Newcastle United first-team. #NUFC

[James Rutherford @HitcJames]

Tonight is the night. Hopefully Howe and the lads can create another moment that will last a lifetime.

Despite concerns over Woltemade's fitness, I feel like he's got to start with him, Gordon and Elanga in attack.

GET INTO THEM! #NUFC
