Silly old bat
Fairly happy with that. We should have won this but at least we didn't lose.
Newcastle hasn’t ever won at the Amex, and we can’t beat Eddie Howe teams so a draw was inevitable.

Nick Pope, basically.
Would much rather be the team frustrated by a MOTM performance from the keeper than vice versa.
Sorry, was being facetious Peddling that old moan about East Standers not turning up and leaving early. They’re sort of the Solly March of the stands. Go unnoticed and kicked by everyone else! Unreasonably so, cause every stand is as bad really. We’re all Equi rubbish when comes to self criticism! But that doesn’t stop everyone blaming the poor old easy targets East!
That Newcastle goal led a charmed life and that wasn't even counting Pope playing out of his skin. About the closest we could come to winning without actually winning
Not sure about that- was pretty full everywhere else so...

Deserved to win, but relatively happy with a point and clean sheet.
Lallana and Groß both missed absolute sitters, plus two shots cleared off the line. Sanchez didn’t have to make a save of note, except Wilson’s when he was flagged offside.
Good energy levels given the heat and Newcastle were holding on the last 20 minutes in particular.
Mitoma looked very, very promising running against a tired Trippier and Schär, definitely will be in and around the squad based on that performance.
A good performance overall, particularly in the second half, but that was very much the Albion (xG wise, especially!) of a few years back. Sometimes it just really feels - in my gut as a fan - we don’t have a goal in us on the day no matter how well we create the chances. Such is football!
Oh, am I alone in feeling a mixture of confusion, nervousness and excitement whenever Mwepu gets the ball? I sometimes get the feeling he has no clue what will happen, the sublime or the ridiculous. He almost assists a goal with a perfect cutback, then controls the ball into the stand. He is nothing if not entertaining to watch!
Not this old chestnut TH! How many times have we all said this before?!!
We did really well today, it’s an excellent point. Don’t get me wrong, I’m very pleased. But we seem to have forgotten last seasons problem? And season before? And…It’s ok to say we dropped 2 points again because we still lack finishers. Even if it’s only 2nd game of the season and the slate was wiped clean.
The East only gets a bad press because it’s facing the cameras. When look about, the north and the West aren’t really any different.
