A very good point indeed, we were lucky not to lose in the last game and unlucky not to win this one so it's fair I guess. Really hope we can play like this every week and that would be awesome.

My guess for strolla replacing best is somewhat a protection to our thin striker squad especially our goal machine for the moment, Mr Best. We don't really want him to get injured plus we were dominating the game as well. But perhaps Sammy or Gosling would have been a better option. Strolla should be ashamed of himself actually.

As everyone else, I'm looking forward to see Tiote - Cabaye - Barfa - Marveux combo

we played well, glad cabaye was given a chance to roam forward like tailsman he is, he did brilliant, tiote was immense, just when ameobi masuk we....slowed down zzz but good point

After looking back on our game last night, it showed something that we never give up..except for the QPR game, I can say all 2nd half performances by the team this season has been superb with the never give up attitude and to fight for every possible point till the end..

Hope this continues..

HOWAY THE LADS!!!

credit to traveled toon army who made the immense noise.

we still firm at 4th spot.

liverpool lost
stoke lost

lest hope everton draw or lost too

why Everton? They already played la..won 301 against Wigan yesterday..they have played 1 less game because their 1st match of the season against Spurs was postponned because of the London riots

Just want to say that we currently have the best defence in the Premier League..only 2 goals conceded in 5 matches..

I know its too early in the season and so on but hey, when is there a better time to say it right? I am just stating the facts..it wont be like that foerver

In my dreams i hope it will continue till the season ends

Wake me up when September ends

Actually, we do have a good run of winnable games coming up if we keep up the performances we have had and keep the defence well..and also get our injured players back..

next 6 games:
Blackburn (H)
Wolves (A)
Spurs (H)
Wigan (H)
Stoke (A)
Everton (H)

and then Man City & Man Ud (A), Chelsea (H)..so we need to pick as much points as possible before these three matches..but to be honest, we did pretty well against the top team last season..only Man City managed to pick up full points against us last season..Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool all dropped points against us..we have so far done pretty well against the team we did badly against last season..

Not wrong to be postive and optimistic as a Newcastle fan right now..not often we are in this position and can feel good..enjoy it while it lasts

Actually i don wish HBA start for Forest game. sad to see he is injured again

yea seriously its not a good idea to play HBA against a Championship side, no disrespect to Forest

i say give just him a 2nd half run out just to give him the feel again..

Is there any chance to watch the game from online streaming tonight?

would be a miracle if there is any..all the foreign streaming sites, even the crappy ones are showing Leeds vs Man Utd..does anyone know how to get live online radio feed? I had one good Newcastle radio streaming site but cant remember bout it now..used it during the Championship season..

Team News:

Elliot, Simpson, Coloccini, Perch, Ferguson, Marveaux, Gosling, Guthrie, Abeid, Lovenkrands, Ben Arfa

Subs bench: Krul, Henderson, Dummett, Obertan, Sam Ameobi, Shola Ameobi, Leon Best

BEN ARFA STARTS..But with Loven???

Abeid also starts..

good to see ben arfa is back..talented guy
