A lot of fans are critical of our forwards and midfield highlighting their inability to score goals and indicating they were totally ineffective in the game. We did not lose and could have won. Now look at Newcastle spent millions their £63 million striker was no better than Our forwards. Their midfield and forwards had no more shots than us on target or otherwise. The goalkeepers from each side kept both their teams in the game. Let’s face it we were away at an intimidating ground and came away with a hard fought point and a clean sheet. Of the two teams who should be more dissatisfied with their team us or the Toon.

Good result.

Pleased with that.

Add it to Man City and Liverpool for the 'Glad It's Out Of The Way' pile.

Ayew has turned into a television programme?

No you are right, opportunities are not the problem, it is putting them in the net that is. We have scored 7 goals in league matches, 4 by Wilf, an own goal and just two by the rest of the team.

Yes, the keeper saved well today but how often are we going to hear the same story rather than he finished it well. We need a forward who when faced with half a chance, buries it. I quite like both Edouard and Mateta but neither finishes like say Murray or Andy Johnson. Maybe they don’t exist any more for less than £50m.
