Edit : we just beat the Chelsea scummers. Mods : please change thread title to ''newcastle at st james's, Ashley selling damaged goods''
we bought ourselves a lifeline, but no more chances to make a mess of it. So lets show the fat spanish waiter that managing in La Liga was a walk in the park compared to the Premier League.

Benteke might be out for a few more games so the match our season starts may be put back a wee longer.

Absolutely right! Loose at Newcastle and we are relegated - a stone cold certainty. Blame AP for a series of bad buys - selling Bolasie to but Bentecce was a major mistake. John Moss should be held to account for allowing Huddersfield to kick the legs if Wilf to such an extense that he has missed so many vital games. SP's problem now is preparing for the Championship next season, who to sell, probably ata loss and who to keep. If no points after 9 games how can anyone expect us to get 38/40 points in rge remaining 29? I expect I shall get abuse for writing this. I'll be in my seat for Chelsea - would be wonderful igf this is a repeat of last season's away game - do cows ever jump over the moon?

Personally I think we'll pick up some points between now and Brighton. Maybe 6 max if we're lucky. Then, I believe the Brighton away will define our season, more psychologically than anything else. We win there it will be a massive boost potentially ensuring we get to 8 or 9 points, I think we use that to go on a good run against Brum, Bournemouth, Watford, Leicester and Swansea to get us back in contention. If we don't make the most of that run before we have to play Arsenal and Citeh again, we are completely and utterly f***ed.

Assuming we lose the Chelsea game ( Meanwhile one or two of the the 3 teams above us will get some small points ) ..... the whole season boils down to this.... IF we Lose to Newcastle , AND at the same time ANY ONE of the 3 teams above us get a win then WE ARE GOOSED ! apologies for sounding fatalistic, but it is as stark as that. It would be nine losses. And Newcastle just gave Liverpool a black eye at the weekend. We cannot guarantee our survival with a win at St James's, but we can seriously stack the bookies odds against us if the above scenario plays out. So lets show the fat spanish waiter that managing in La Liga was a walk in the park compared to the Premier League.

There's still 29 games to play and we'd only be a maximum of 8 points behind. After Chelsea we have 11 games which are on paper winnable (except Spurs), if we come out of those games still 7 or 8 points adrift then I'd be inclined to agree.

Agreed. Utter rubbish this early in the season. Look at Hodgson at Fulham the year he kept them up. Originally posted by jimruss

We need to start getting points soon, I think as long as we get points this month then it doesn't matter where from.

Every week is now becoming our biggest game in years. Bigger than Stockport? Sheff Wed? Hull? They're all big. We have to pick up decent points in 3 out of 4 or 2 out of 3 games. Steady stream of points or even better, wins on the bounce. Definitely not losing to the relegation candidates Brighton or Huddersfield again. Time is and isn't on our side. It is what it is now and there's no room for BS performances we know we show up with. Lose certain players at the same time and we're probably down. If we don't we've got a decent chance but they're all going to be important to not chuck them away with inexcusable bollox on the pitch.

Imagine Newcastle at Part Time James's. Now that would be a big thing.

The main thing is to build on the team performance shown on Saturday. Play as we did against Chelsea and, Regardless of the opposition, the points will come. Essential we do not go backwards again and feel (fairly) confident Roy & Ray will ensure we don't.
