Anyone else sit through the highlights?

Absolute agony...but Bobby Robson - as usual - very eloquent post match. "Not feeling too clever"...upset, disappointed...and invites 52,000 home fans to have dinner with him Saturday night if they think he's not hurting more...

Shearer also takes it on the chin. Apologies for missing pen..."I take the credit when they go in...etc".

Analysis also points out almost identikit move re Quinn goal and Everton winner on Oct 21. It was bad enough sat next to the away crowd that day...

Yes.....I did.....and it didn't look any better tonight than it sounded earlier this afternoon.

I can understand what YBR was saying at the end, I could see where he was coming from (as they seem to say these days) and Al's appology did seem heartfelt....but it didn't make the losing to the chimp bastards feel any friggin better.

SOD IT............just one more chimp to make me feel better!

Just couldn't face it - either last night or this morning. It still hurts like hell.

I watched it last night and this morning and I still don't believe it....Mark Lawrenson tipped us to finish above the filthy mackems. We're doomed I tell you, DOOMED!

I seemed to remember Newcastle getting caught offside an anwfull lot, which infuriated the crowd as most of the time we weren't. The stats in the papers confirm that there were 11 offside decisions compared with 2 or 3 from other games. If we had had a fair linesman we would have have a stack of chances, I think we was robbed.

And very few of those offside decisions were legitimate. Then again our goal also looked to have started from an offside that wasn't called so I won't moan too much ;-)

But I like to moan and put it down to bad luck and Dodgy refs and linesman..... It makes me feel better.

Just watched the Fox highlights..and I was wrong about our goal. We were onside. Now I'll moan. :-(

First 3 minutes were good though. *sigh*
