Newcastle Utd 4 - 1 Northampton Town – 25/08/15

This isn't the first time that Gouffran has played in central midfield, so it seems likely that both Pardew and McClaren have seen something in Gouffran during training which leads them to believe that he's better suited there.

Work rate and no quality.

Attacking Threat Mk II

As expected, with the exception of Gouffran. I didn't think Dummett would start, too soon from injury, but it would good if he got 25mins or so.It doesn't sound as if we are looking at the Lb area so we need him fit for cover for Haidara. Glad to see Aarons and De Jong starting, and a very strong bench. Expect to win this by 3/4 goals tonight, a clean sheet would be a plus but with Willo at the back we can't rule anything out.

Thrilliamson and Gouffless

Otherwise good

[The Rock Lobster]

f*** off Gouffran you piece of s*** McClaren out

I've seen a few "good enough against league one opposition" comments knocking about. Northampton Town are in League Two.

[Jaiston]

Williamson & Lascelles together Disaster waiting to happen.

Gouffran in as well

Fairly strong team part from those though.

[PFT]

Darlow playing against his hometown club Hope Toney comes on . Gouffran in midfield is shocking, rather see Kemen be given a chance.

any radio streams even? BBC Newcastle have the Sunderland game by the sounds of it

edit: just seen BBC Northampton have got it

[MultipleJesuses]

The one good thing about Gouff in CDM is that he isn't on the wing.

[PFT]

Seeing a lot of posts on Twitter saying "The front four will be MORE that enough, it's a league two side." That may be true but the CB pairing worries me. Willo is garbage and is alongside someone he hasn't played a lot of football with, we could be shaky.

[The Rock Lobster]

Ayoze will school these part timers.

Newcastle are bad enough to make a league two side look league one quality

Williamson & Lascelles together Disaster waiting to happen.

Especially since I've heard that lascelles is good alongside a leader at the back but rubbish otherwise

[Holystone...]

Turned up to pay at cash tills to find out of 60 turnstiles... 4 taking cash. Rest ticket. Bedlam. 200 yard queues at 7:30pm. Pathetic organisation.

[beardface]

No stream anywhere?

[beatski]

What turnstiles are on?

No stream anywhere?

Never is for opening rounds for cup comps.

[dls]

Oh ffs
