Hello - Powburn Person Viewer here. We could have been 3 down, but we were unlucky to go behind. A terrible mistake by Wor Shay. Rest of the team not looking too bad, bad we have tocrippletake more care of Zenden. Robbie Elliot is continuing his pre-season mediocrity. Barton and Dabs playing pretty well. I'd be tempted to bring O'Brien on for Elliot and move Hughsie to the left.Robert and Bellamy are looking threatening - Shola is anonymous and should be replaced by Lua x2.
Still, we can get something from this game. It's up to you YBR.
Oh - BTW, D'@rsehole is useless. Typical bliddy

Take Robbie Elliot off, he is slow and let Grokjaer to have so much space to run. Take Lee off and let Griffin to move as a right wing back and kick that Zenden for the rest of the match. We should move to a 3-5-2 formation with the wing back marking their R&L wings. Bellamy is not bad, at least he runs all the pitch for a chance, I hope at least one may work.

LT, Given survived (admirably) after that disastrous start, you'd think his kicking would have improved after all thos eback passes from Barton. Hughes and Elliott are hanging in there put the Chewsea wingers are very dangerous. Our midfield is non-existent (Bassedas and Lee crap), Ameobi schoolboy stuff. We only have Robert and Bellamy (to a lesser extent).Again, maybe just maybe we'll get lucky BUT who could / can score for us?

-- Anonymous, August 19, 2001
maybe even both Quinn & Griff(for Lee) on to better protect both flanks, with Robert moving to a more central advanced role in place of Shola. give chelsea something to worry about defensively & it automatically takes the pressure off our defence & allows wingbacks to be more wing than back!! of course, akll that assumes the players are vaguely familiar with those roles from the training ground. doh!!
-- Anonymous, August 19, 2001
Watch the 1st half. The team is holding its own albeit against a very average Chewsee side apart from Zenden. Shay celebrated Christmas early letting the ball through his legs. Dabs and Barton has been solid so far. Elliot, I believe is still playing Div1 football. Lee, Acuna and Bassedas has been here and there but nothing much from them. Ameobi is smiling alot but I don't know why and Bellamy is like the neighbour's little terrier running down every ball and causing a bit of a problem. Robert is ok but hasn't really got the chance to shine. Overall, we should still be 0-0 or even 1-0 up on this lot but we aren't doing too bad. Only worry is 3 yellows that Andy D'Arse saw fit to show to Robert, Lee and Bassedas.

Sorry dropped my keyboard!What I was going to say is that only Robert would be a guaranteed member of the starting XI - the future looks brighter than it did.

We defended well in the second half, for once. Robert, what a find!I said (at H-T), we might just get lucky & WE DESERVED IT!
I'm a happy chappy, maybe we can win in 'the smoke' this season!?

Great battling performance in teh 2nd 1/2. I'd take that result for evey game in Lahndaan this season. We can wait til next time for a win ;-))

Thanx for the excellent company folks. Fantastic result & by the sounds of it a creditable battling performance. Robert sounds class (and lasts longer than Zenden!) while Bellamy sounds as if he worked his socks off. Dabs, Barton & Hughes solid at back.Now about Mary Queen of SAcots sparxx???

I still have the suspicion TV/paper pundits don't quite get Newcastle. We often give a respectable account of ourselves when we're the underdogs. It's games at home to the likes of Derby and Everton that keep us down in the mid-table.

PS. Thank you Claudio. If you hadn't taken BZ off, we would have lost ;-))

Great to hear from eyewitnesses. If we can maintain a battling spirit, we'll do ok this season. Might even win something. ;-)Just put on the Fulham webcast. Excellent quality, but one of their announcers has laryngitis. His croaking is painful to hear. Go Fulham!

Just watched it on PPV - Robert is fantastic- we didnt get it to him enough- look forward to Solano, Dyer, Shearer+Robert playing together :-)

I'm a jinx!! First half I was in a pub in Headingly, some awful game played by public school boys going on next door and our lads are doing OK but down to a mistake by Given means we look like losing this one. Robert looked class, Barton looked eager, Bassedas didn't shirk after some roughing up, Acuna doing OK and Bellemy gives us much needed pace. Negetives were Bobby Lee & Acuna together gave little attacking options & Petit had the run in the middle. Robert looked like he may get a second yellow & backfour as ever suseptable to the through ball. Ameobi needs to keep up and anticipate. Passing was dreadful by most in B&W.Anyways, I move pups at half time just as the cricket must have been called off, I can't get to see the second half as all the pubs are full. Get home to find not only have we equalised, we held our own & Manure are getting beat.
One funny point, a heap load of Aussies looking completely bemused as the Geordie element demand coverage of the nations national summer sport involving Egland & the best cricket team in the world be turned over to the Footie.

I saw it on ppv too. A real battling performance. Nice that Zenden had to present Warren Barton with man of the match (deservedly). Barton joked it was the nearest he'd been to him all game. Bobby singled out Rob Lee for praise. Said he was saving Solano and Speed for Troyes and that Ameobi wasn't really fit - hadn't trained all week but should be fine for Tuesday. I thought Robert looked fantastic and Bellamy had a really good game. Also Elliot put in a couple of superb tackles, though he did get dragged out of position a bit. Can't say anyone had a bad game. Fantastic result. I wonder if ppv repeat the matches so I can video it for anyone who wants it?

Good graft from Newcastle it has to be said. BTW these match threads are fantastic to read, even after the event.Very entertaining.

I saw it on PPV in the bar too. It looks like we've got the better of the two, comparing Zenden and Robert. If it had been his shot and not zenden's it wouldn't have just trickled through Given's hands it would have knocked De Goey into the net (like he nearly did a couple of minutes later). Plus he's tough, players bounce off him, and he really looks as if he cares. And how he managed to get a yellow card for answering back when he can't even speak the language shows he must be a fast learner. I did worry though when he hung around just a few yards from the free kick whether he knew the 10 yard advance rule, as it doesn't apply in France as far as I know. When everyone's back from injury i think we're going to see some good games.

barry, I think Robert got booked for kicking the ball away after a free kick was given against him. It's the dodgy Sky commentators that haven't got a clue.It was quite funny listening to Marwood the Mackem straining when he had to give us praise.
Great result, definitely something to build on for the rest of the season. Nice not to get beaten on the opening day for once.
