Ameobi isn't having the best of games but it's a typical blood and guts game.

Bellamy scored! I`ll settle for 1 - 1 at half time, but I would give Barton a right rollicking for being booked for dissent just before half time - he kicked the ball away. He should know better. What do you reckon - do you think he will bring SHEARER on at the start of the second half?

God this lot are going to give me such grey hairs! One things for sure...nobody's slacking. Robert is a revelation!! Shola really needs to be rested. He's trying, but too often looks hesitant and lost. Don't think we should risk Shearer. The mackems are trying hard to cripple us. Except for Hutchison who decided to entertain us with his Greg Louganis impression. Tosser! The goal we gave up was ridiculous. Phillips completely unmarked. Robert played a gorgeous ball perfectly for Bellamy to run onto and score a gorgeous goal. Acuna needs to get stuck in, he ain't gonna intimidate anyone with his size. Dabs needs to have his trap taped shut. this is after he tried to strangle one of the mackems at the start of the match. He's trying my already limited patience with him. I'm rambling and need to get back. Let's fight for it in the second half!! HOWAY THE LADS!!!!!

Yep, 2 points lost. We outshot them 15-8, Nobby missed 2 sitters, should have gotten a penalty for Acuna being brought down in the box, McCann should have been sent off for 2yellows, except the ref didn't give him the first yellow for trying to plow through Robert in the first half.

Still....exciting game and fantastic to see us fighting for the entire 90min. Robert had me drooling every time he got the ball and it had nothing to do with his looks! ;-) And Shearer's face while warming up and as he took to the pitch was priceless. Happy enough with the result as we didn't lose, but we really should have won.

-- Anonymous, August 26, 2001


Great news for Lee. He really played better than I think I've ever seen him play. Barton must have been close in the reckoning. Great performance from him as well today. Actually I can't have much complaint about any of our lot(other than Solano for those misses..grrrrr).

-- Anonymous, August 26, 2001

Yep agree. We lost 2 points but nice perfomance. Shearer should have gotten one of Nobbys chances... Great pass from Robert to Bellamy. They should play more trough Robert, he always does something good with the ball.

-- Anonymous, August 26, 2001

Just got back from watching the TV.

We were good for a win, no doubt about it. Everyone had a decent enough game - with perhaps the exception of Nobby who just 'had one of those games'. A few stupid bookings [kicking ball away and dissent] and definite chances to score. Shola was excellent. Bellamy too - their running off the ball and movement was great to see - just wish they could shoot on target. Defence looked okay but jsut that - okay. AGAIN looked dubious on the counter IMHO. Midfield worked hard. A solid performance - but lacked a real cutting edge. A point won and with a bit more luck would've been three. 2 from 2.
