Worst display so far this season. Can’t think of anyone who played well against a fine Newcastle team not playing especially well. Defence was a mess for first time. Zero ideas going forward. Couldn’t hold the ball up.JRS Manca and Ozoh offered some hope as subs. Prefer any of them to Hughes or mateta for Friday. Hurry back Eze and olise. Friday WILL be better🙏

Lost to the better team so no complaints here..Newcastle played some exciting football..

Hate to admit it because I’m not a fan of his, but Mitchell obviously struggled on his own down the left today

Yep and we still can't hit the barn door!!Do our forwards play in plimsolls🤧 or ballet shoes😠

The early goal undid all of Roy's usual game strategy of keeping it to 0-0 until half time. After that goes in, he has to think about a way to get back into the game with a side lacking in attacking quality and intent against a side that has those very qualities.
The game was over before it even began.
Just the one goal in four games now - Roy has gone back into his defensive shell, it's natural to him, it's what he does, particularly so when only having at most a PL standard first eleven and not a lot more. It's been said before but the board have a lot to answer for.

Can’t blame Roy for yesterday.
Our players were of a far inferior quality. With the team we were able to play we wouldn’t have beaten them if we played the game 10 times.
What does Parish expect?
