Exactly this.
We'd have all taken a point before and the fact that we've been battered for most of that half, we're only one down.
We're good enough to come back here.

I realise that I shouldn't rise to it, but your sense of humour is pathetic.

It's all very well moaning but we are up against a very good side who are making it difficult for us

Seems some fans struggle to accept that. For ten minutes of the first half Newcastle looked as good as any team I've seen in the Championship since we came into it. They were just better than us all over the pitch. We may have stemmed the tide.....

Just as a matter of interest, do you always talk out of your Avatar?
Well, good set piece for Newcastle but for me Stockdale should have saved it. Yes great shot to smack the bar. So what have they shown more than us? Physicality and brute in your face force for which they have received three yellows. Is that the way to beat us by 'beating' us? I hope one of the barstewards gets sent off. Meanwhile three players need a bollocking, Sidwell Bong and Skalak. I'd replace Skalak with either Murhy or Lua Lua.

Do behave at the back there.
Newcastle are playing very well and are better than us at the moment, nobody needs sacking or abusing
Another goal for them and we'll probably be over run, one for us and who knows.
Quite. We need to play a lot quicker.

Newcastle didn't impress me greatly, and lost any grip on the game for the last 15. That shows we have a chance. Yes, Stephens ought to come on and stride around with menacing purpose, but we're not wholly out of it without him.
Our passes have not found their man. Pass around a pressing team. Have we forgotten how to do it?

I think we might have to change something. There have been a few home matches like this when we have turned it on in the second half. It means winning the midfield battle and keeping the ball more.
We defended like Forest for their goal. Zonal is OK, but if they have a big man I go for partially man for man marking. I'm not sure that Duffy and Dunk have got an understanding yet?
Hopeful we get a shot on target?

Yep stockdale stepped the wrong way. For me he always looks too nervous when the ball is in air in that corridor of uncertainty
