🚨 Eddie Howe: “Sandro Tonali has really suffered enough”.
“That illness didn't stop when he moved to England... and people should look at it that way, not let's throw the book at him and punish him even further because I don't think that gets to the root of the problem”.
Transport Police need to stop targeting and worrying about football fans on trains and start clamping down on the real problem, which is middle aged women going for day drinks in Newcastle/Durham/York armed with bottles of Prosecco and daft tiaras
Would have been very easy for Miguel Almiron to come on tonight and go missing given the speculation and the needless abuse on this platform in recent days but he didn’t. He put in an important shift. Nice to hear the away end singing his name as he was introduced. #NUFC
Having slept on it, I’m still confident Newcastle can enjoy the second half of 2023-24.
Eddie Howe has been dealt a poor hand all season and hasn’t bitched once. For 60 mins yesterday, they were good. The two-week break is welcome. From Villa onwards everything will be ok. #NUFC
If #NUFC are going to turn their form around they need to start preventing one single pass bypassing their entire centre midfield. It's happening every week and again yesterday which gave KDB all the time in the world to pick his spot for the goal. Forest also exploited it often.
Eddie Howe gets it absolutely spot on regarding Kieran Trippier:
💬 “After giving us so much, it’s now our turn to support Kieran. He's taken the group to a different level and been a transformative signing for us. He's been the heartbeat of our performances.”#NUFC
Mental isn’t it? This literally stops the ball going to Isak one-on-one with the keeper, but they give the one to PSG going against their own actual rules. #NUFC
"#NUFC are the upstarts, intent on seizing a glint of silver from the Group of Death. They left with the sickening feeling arguably their greatest European win had been stolen from them."
@jwhitey98 reflects on a controversial, galling night in Paris:

@cartersnufc@NUFCThreatLevel Not sure why we let away fans bring a drum in whilst we got searched intimately in Milan no chance we were allowed to get anything in
We knew Tonali ban was coming anyway, it’s the rest of the injuries I’m worried about. Isak out till next international break now (shock), relying on Wilson for 5 games unless Gordon plays centrally, this is one of the busiest periods too. STRESS
@worflags When you have possibly the best fans in Europe with 2 drums in away end, it’s always going to be a fight to be louder than them.
We can’t have drums in SJP so how come the away fans can in Europe?
@worflags Completely drowned out by their drums but it just seemed very flat and half-arsed. No where near the PSG levels where everyone was fucking hyped. Don't know what happened tonight
