Abdoulaye Faye returns bringing on a heartbreak for the Toon Army

How many times we ever witnesses a Toon manager being sent-off in Newcastle United competitive fixtures? Not too often I’m sure and JFK who has been sending off by Mike Riley might be the first in our Premierships years.

But one thing that’s for sure is we are too often to dropped points after doing good. This is some kind of a curse that I don’t really understand until now. We are…

A Worthy point underneath the Smogs curtain

This is from a less than impressive web stream but despite the lack of picture quality, even through the thick Smog I could see some real quality from men in black and white today. Hats off to the back four, especially Bassong.

Defensively, I thought we were hopeless. How many more stupid frickin penalties are we going to give away this season? Wtf can’t our Managers see what we can see – Cacapa is useless.

Young Bassong…
