Perfect penalty, coolness personified.

 

[sjamesb3466]

Get in boys, perfect start

 

[Badger]

That was never a penalty.

Ah well

I am concerned about the ref.

Not because he's a Huddersfield supporter but because he is from the Premier League and will therefore know the Newcastle players but not ours. We have all seen how Premier League refs seem to favour PL teams in cup matches, giving them the benefit of the doubt in 50/50s etc, and I fear the same will happen tonight. I really hope the game isn't spoilt by an early red card like in the away match (unless it's one of theirs!).

Well he gave us a pen!

 

[KZNSeagull]

What a start.

 

[oldboyroy]

Soft pen but we'll take it

 

[Phil B]

I think it was - the referee thought it was too.

 

[Frutos]

Poco about to be pulled off.

For the record, I think it was a bit of a soft penalty too...oh well.

 

[larus]

Can we start dreaming now please? Keep at em.

 

[brakespear]

Tomori coming on for Seb shortly.

Goak

I said its in fun of someones comment against Reading, but I have a new superstition

 

[Simster]

Clear pen in my view. I get pissed off seeing defenders with no interest in playing the ball with their arms all over the forward, I wish more were given for that bollocks

 

[sjamesb3466]

My only fear is the ref will now have to give them a pen if there is any contact in our box too. Can see him giving them a soft one to make amenda

 

[Glawstergull]

There goes my Baldock bet! Never mind.

How many more Newcastle fouls before a card comes out ffs

 

[WhingForPresident]

Not feeling great about Tomori at LB..

 

[Frutos]

Shelvey starting to get a bit stroppy.

 

[sjamesb3466]

We need to get our foot on the ball again and start running at them
