New-toon blues

Newcastle away, normally a tricky fixture, both on and off the pitch... yes YOU stewards! However, the Geordie republic/ Skunks/ Scots with no brains will be highly fearful of a resurgent blue tidalwave about to engulf them. Silence the crowd, keep the pace high and the better ability of the blue matadors will shine thru.

I don't know why it is, but I can't wait to beat the likes of Newcastle who were armed with an open cheque book look to re-write the history of football and write off clubs like ours since the start of the Premier League. Let's also not forget, they ain't won "fuck all".

Has everyone gone completly crazy? Newcastle away has always been a damn nuisance of a fixture and correct me if I?m wrong but David Moyes?s teams have done very little there during his tenure, save a penalty shoot-out win in the League Cup. Nothing would give me greater satisfaction than to give them a footballing lesson but, without Cahill, Everton are not the same team.

Whilst we have been up and at them in the past six weeks or so, Newcastle is just the sort of banana skin game that has constantly tripped us up in the past.

Likewise, all the talk of easily overcoming West Ham/Boro in the Cup is silly. Everton have to treat every game the same and then perhaps the results we want will follow. Maybe I?m too long in the tooth but many false dawns have been and gone for me to get carried away by our recent performances and results.

We are a good team... maybe a very good team, but we are not so good that we can count our chickens before we have kicked a ball in anger.

Anthony Dyer, you’re spot on. Our team’s specaility is playing like a real team and working their socks off. The day they expect an easy win is the day we will lose again. It will be a hard fought battle.

I don’t think the players will count their chickens. Not with the likes of Moyes and Neville bringing them down to earth. The only fear about Sunday is that we will have too many stikers fit and no Cahill. It is no coincidence that we have played our best football with only one or none up front. We can’t play with 2 up front...in fact nobody who is any good plays 2 up front anymore.

We had the fear that we’d come down to earth with a bump against Bolton after the cup win against the shite but it didn’t happen...here’s hoping we’ve got enough fit bodies and they can gel as a team.

What possesses people to write such unmitigated shite on here?

Charlie Willis - I just hope nothing untowards happens on Sunday to ram your stupid words back down your throat.

Newcastle is not an easy fixture. And we have no grudge or issue with Newcastle. They have magnificent fans and stupid owners.

Furthermore, I have several Gerodie mates and they are always amongst the warmest, most tolerant and self-deprecating of people. As Newcastle fans they support their team, through thick & thin. As footy fans they are generous. Their lack of trophies is nothing to do with the fans.

Your article is stupid & offensive.

Anthony and Erik ? A defeat is a defeat and highly disappointing whether you go into the game feeling overly confident or overly weary.

Lighten up ta fuck!! We?re in an excellent vein of form against a managerless team regardless of how long in the tooth you might be.

I?m approaching the game with total confidence and belief that we can win and if we?re beat, I?ll be gutted for a week until our next game where I?ll brush myself off and get ready to do it all again.

The game at St James Pk will be very difficult, as it always is, and with Tim missing, we will be without a very influential player. But with Jo due to come back, and the way the boys are playing, we could just have a result in the offing. I am sure the boys travelling up in support will not let the club down.

Alan Kirwin, I completely disagree with you. Geordie fans are fat, ignorant tits. I lived in the North East for three years and found the Geordies to be unaccommodating bitter fans.

I got some free tickets to Chelsea vs Newcastle in the cup when I was back in uni so thought I would go. I was in with the fat, hairless individuals who could quite easily be mistaken for an enemy of the hobbits, and they were some of the worst fans I have ever had the displeasure of meeting.

I have a couple of friends who support the mags and they seriously believe they are a massive club, the last time they won something was the fifties. They most definitely hate Everton ? believe me, I know from personal experience ? and think they should be part of the sky four. They're horrible fans and I hope we give them a beating on Sunday because we should do; we are a better team, better fans and have a much better history so Fuck off Skunks. Can't wait to see them get relegated.

Funny how we all like Newcastle when they had gung-ho styles going on in the 90s... can?t say it?d be great being a Toon fan, it will take years to sort out that mess up there and a revamped squad.

If Newcastle fans are tits then you can put that down to them almost tasting glory, had the CL a few seasons and then saw it all slip away and they know they can?t get it back. Won?t stop them thinking they deserve better though... small club, too many fans haha. Sunderland fans however seem to have a reality check, Boro too...

Andrew Fair, totally agree.

Went there on a stag do..... bundle of wankers.
At least in Merseyside there is a lot the recognition of another club whether hated or not. In Newcastle they have the whole place to themselves and it has warped their minds.

I really thought long and hard about going to this game.
I hate the heavy handed police, I hate the fact that no one is welcome in the alehouses.
I hate the thugish stewarts.
I hate that you have to walk a vertical mile to get to your seat.
I hate they way the mindless fat fuckers who chant the side splittingly funny "you stole my stereo" or the "In your Liverpool slums" roll about laughing and really believe they?ve just made it up ? thick twats

I hate the way some dirty, scruffy, barely coherent, smelly tramps try to look down his noses at me and call me a thieving scouser.

I?ll be going, because if we?re going to ease them a step closer to the drop, I want to be there...

Alan Kirwan, have you ever been to St James Park for one of our games?

Whilst I agree with you about Geordies in general the treatment we get from everybody associated with NUFC is disgraceful. They are the most vile, aggressive, desperate, hateful fans you could ever meet and the stewards are 100% worse.

I hope we turn them over goodstyle on Sunday and I?m glad the thorn in our side (Owen) will not be playing.

Another double from Jo I reckon and a Lescott header in a 3-1 victory with echoes of 1999.

Great Post... whether you agree with it or not.

I went up to a game one year... the night before we went to some club on a ship. One of my mates (off his head) went over to pull a girl on the ?REVOLVING? dance floor... he fell over!! She wondered where he had gone... so he gets up to try again and ended up again on his back. This time, however, he decided to crawl on his hands and knees off the dance floor. It was the funniest thing I have ever seen.

Then I was talking to some ugly girl (they all look like blokes up there) outside the club (on dry land) who happened to see some girl she had a dislike for ? and before I knew it 5 or 6 ?girls? were rolling around on the ground fighting and pulling hair (the second funniest thing I have ever seen). Anyway, the Police arrived, I got took away and missed the game. AND I have never been back to Newcastle. My mates who went the game said how shit we were treated... and they haven't returned since either.

"Another double from Jo I reckon and a Lescott header in a 3-1 victory..."

Why 1? Our defence is too strong to let them score. If they want they can score an own goal. I'm not being stingy but the longer we can keep our defence tight, the more assured we are going forward. That's how the Mancs do it. Their defence looks impregnable. Opponents lose confidence. Then they shit all over them.

This will be a tricky match but it is so important that we get a win and we are capable of doing this. There is a good chance of Villa & the shite getting beat today and we need to be winning these ganes to get closer to that top4 spot that we deserve. COYB

I refuse to set foot in St James? Park ever again. The last time I went, I was spat at and had plastic bottles thrown by the home fans right past a steward who then threatened to throw me out for complaining about it, fucking inbred retards can keep their stadium and drop to relegation to themselves. On previous visits the stewards and old bill were equally as happy to grab fans for celebrating our scoring and turf them outside after getting an undeserved kicking en route.

No football game on the planet is worth getting a beating from those twats for.

Alan Kirwin, the barcodes are not what you say they are. Your mates might be but in general they are the biggest bunch of clueless idiots you could meet. They epitomise everything I hate about the ?modern? fan with their replica shirts, scarf waving and big fat guts out for the telly.

Also, do you know how many of their ?passionate? supporters turned up when Keegan first took over? Answer: 12,000! The song "Where were you when you were shit?" applies perfectly to them. They are in a mess now because they idolised Keegan so much who spent all their money and scrapped their youth system. The damage he caused will take them a long time to recover from and the fans reap what they sow.

I hope we batter them tomorrow.

Totally agree with most of the posts here. I happened to visit St James Park when Agent Johnson had contol and it is the worst ground I have been in. Nothing to do with the fact we were 1-0 up after 10 mins then got beat 4-1. The stewards and the police do not give a shit, and throw fans out for nothing. Their fans think they are the world?s best and they are a massive club. The game tomorrow will be difficult but I ?d love it ,really love it when we win them.
