Chris Hughton on the Newcastle game. Thank you Chris. I was genuinely terrified he might set up for the draw here too!

 

[Commander]

That's about as positive a thing as he's said all season.

 

[stss30]

What were his thoughts on Newcastle? "These are a good side"?

We may well set up for a draw if Cardiff lose in the early kick off methinks, despite what he says.

 

[southstandandy]

A draw maybe enough. Chris could even consider playing 2 keepers?

 

[Simster]

Excellent words. Looking forward to "how shit must you be? We've just scored a goal" ringing out from the 12,000 left in the stadium as Murray tucks away our 91st minute consolation.

My biggest fear here is Cardiff draw. If they do I can see CH happy taking a point and setting us up that way to put pressure back on Cardiff who will then need 4 points again to overhaul is.
If Cardiff win then in all honestly he has to go for it
If Cardiff lose then we must take this chance for us to be safe for certain knowing even if we lose 4 points are still needed from 2 games for them to overhaul us.

Hughton's gonna get naughty. Sending minions to slip a few laxatives in Newcastle's food for an explosive day at the Amex.

Imagine the fat waiter and Ritchie consoling each other amidst an explosion of diarrhea.

Shit does happen.

 

[Marshy]

We will set up and take a draw in my opinion despite these words.

 

[SollysLeftFoot]

Shit does happen.

Amex is the place for fecal displays.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Anyone would think it is real life Xbox FIFA the amount of control a manager has over what happens every moment on a football pitch. Does he use auto player switch I wonder?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Amex is the place for fecal displays.

Certainly seem to be a few players just going through the motions

Hopefully we won't bowel out with a whimper.

 

[Icy Gull]

Hopefully we won't bowel out with a whimper.

Well I’m certainly going to be shitting myself

 

[SollysLeftFoot]

Maybe the collective smell of shit will put off Newcastle and the Complete and Utter Shyster and forfeit.

You know what to do, people.

 

[Stat Brother]

To me "whichever way possible" sounds a lot like:-

'let's make it difficult - only Stephens is allowed to shoot'.

 

[Napier]

Certainly seem to be a few players just going through the motions

We need to flush the poor performers out.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Maybe, instead of flags, the club could place a toilet roll on every seat.

 

[Reddleman]

I agree with the poster above that the Cardiff result will determine this. If they win we really have no choice but to go for it. They draw or lose then a point will still be a seen as a good result in his eyes and we will be conservative again.

 

[Chicken Run]

What is all this bollox about setting up for a draw, what happened to that old fashioned method of going out to DESTROY ****ING NEWCASTLE?
