Match Thread Newcastle v Everton - Wed 13th December

Status
Not open for further replies.
Recent results have been good but I feel we’ve had more than a little bit of Lady Luck on our side. Has our ‘luck quota’ been exhausted?
Between two teams who play awful football, I get a feeling Newcastle might get the rub of the green this fixture. It’ll probably be 1-0 to them (via some spawny goal, aided and abetted by either ‘who ate the pies’ Ashley or Jellyfish Jags)
With that in mind, I’m hoping teams in relegation contention with us (i.e. Palace, Swansea, West Ham, Stoke, Huddersfield, West Brom, Brighton and Bournemouth) fare similarly badly.

This is what Everton has reduced me to this season

Think we may see Rooney rested here. We should have enough to beat them but you don't go on a winless run away from home like the one we're on now unless you have something fundamentally wrong with your approach/attitude in away games. Big Sam has to overcome that and quickly.

Yes similar thoughts. Would snatch a chance of a draw. Another point to safety.

I predicted 9 points from Palarse, Ammers and Uddersfield and we got 7
I predicted a draw at the RS
Tomorrow i predict a 4-0 defeat
I have supported us for 60 years and seen it all before. Disappointment inevitably follows relief/joy
