Newcastle United v Hull City - Official Build Up / Match Day Thread

I've always thought Hull would be the more likely side to stay up this season. Steve Bruce's sides are usually difficult to break down. They don't score too many goals, but it should be tough for most teams to play against them.

They are threatening from set pieces and crosses. Crosses seem to be their best route to goal, so our defence will need to be stronger than it was during the set piece that Villa scored from.

I have a feeling that if we win, Krul will play a big part in it, because I see deadly crosses coming in and Hull players getting heads to them.

But, I think we will keep a clean sheet and we will win. Can't see it being by many though, and I think it could be another late winner.

I'm going for Cisse to win us the game late on.

 

Would be nice to see us win a game by more than one goal for a change, if only to stop me ****ting myself every time the opposition gets the ball in the last ten minutes

Huge game this, three points and it's a great start. It would set us up nicely for the cup game against Leeds. We'd then face Everton and Cardiff away with a real confidence in the team.

A defeat and suddenly you're worrying about a giant killing in the cup and those away games begin to look even tougher.

It really is games like this one that can shape a season. I'm going for a 3-0 win with a Cisse brace.

 

Yes, not a measely 3... But FIVE. One for each finger on your hand.

 

Hope I'm never sitting next to you if we're only winning by one goal in the last ten minutes.

 

You really are obsessed with hoops lol

 

Oh, you must mean the Halloween Derby.

31-10-10, it all comes back to me now!

 

So that would be SIX if you're a Mackem.

 

Looking forward to the match, and have the feeling that we will win.
No prediction on the score, just a win.

 

Isn't it six toes they have?

 

On their hands?

 

No Obi, their toes are on their feet, the same as everyone else.

 

A scruffy 1-0 late victory scored by Sammy Ameobi

 

Lets hope Pardew plays the same side and we get a goal 1st half, otherwise he'll drop his arse and brong Jonas and Tiote on

 

Seeing a frustrating 0-0, but then i always thought pessimism was a higher form of optimism, that's right i'm one of THOSE guys

 

I'm thinking a solid 2-0 benny runs the show again and maybe a Cabaye/Remy penalty.

 

Pretty confident we'll win, and then after Saturday we've got Leeds at home in the Capital One Cup on Wed 25th.

That should be a good chance to give some playing time to players returning from injury and a youngster or two.

 

Don't take Leeds easily, they always have a point to prove against any Premier League team. Remember they got to the quarter finals last year beating Everton and Southampton. They also put Tottenham out of the FA Cup and in previous season have beaten Man Utd and scared teams such as Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal.

 

Not taking them easily but the league is our priority and we need to keep pushing on in that, it's much more important than the Capital One Cup.

 

Newcastle will look to record three consecutive victories in the Premier League for the first time since April 2012, when Steve "Jacamo" Bruce brings his Tigers side to Tyneside on Saturday.

Hull have proved to be a thorn in our side in recent times, remaining unbeaten in all four league and cup meetings during the 2008/2009 season, winning twice at SJP.
