I'm going for a 2-1 defeat (reverse psychology)

​

 

Suspect we will lose

 

Now there's a shock

 

Don't see why we can't continue our recent run and get a result against the Baggies.

 

Thought you would be in hiding Mr T

 

Pardew will get too full of himself and start doing to much trying to break what by luck he fixed.

 

Another game where all 3 results are a realistic possibility. Suspect a 1-1 for this one.

 

Yes, he broke it by luck, and he's that bad, he won't know how to put it back to being bad. So we're going to win the next ten games. I think.

 

We will win 2-0.

 

Biggest game of our run, table is congested and our last four games will count for zip if we don't pick up a minimum of 7 points out of our next four games. West Brom, Burnley, QPR and West Ham. Need to take points from those teams.

 

Agreed. Seeing as its away I suppose I'd take a draw. We really don't want to lose this one though or we may as well be back to square one.

 

A point would be great for us. I suspect we'll lose 2-0.

 

Think we will win 1-0

 

Will be interesting to see how the players perform and the line-up Pardew picks. It's a bit different from last two league games in that it's one we should be approaching to win rather than go there for a draw. Think as a team we are much more comfortable on the front foot and hope we send players out with that mentality. Think this is a real test of Pardew's new found positivity.

 

I think Pardew has to get credit for both playing with positivity and trusting to youth. Anita was a much "safer" option than Abeid for the Liverpool game, for example, and Gouffran was the "safe" swap for Obertan.

He's thought for himself, made some decisions and they've worked. Doesn't cancel out any past errors but deserves to be put in the positive side of the balance.

For this game I'd go with a front three of Ameobi, Cisse (if he's fit) and Aarons. Bring Ayoze on at 60 minutes for whoever is flagging. If Cisse isn't fit, go with the triple A front line

 

You mean being balanced? I prefer the wild ill conceived hatred, makes these boards more fun.

 

This game will show us how far we have come.

All our recent wins have come about using a tactic of fast counter attacking against teams that come on to us. Although WBA are at home I don't think they are going to have such an attacking mentality as Liverpool, Man City and Tottenham. It'll be interesting to see Pardew's tactics against WBA and whether our team can unpick a defence rather than counter attack.

I'm going for 1-1 draw

 

2-2.

 

No idea. No matter how bad the Baggies play Newcastle always seem determined to play worse when they meet.

 

We will win I'm back on the Musli and working out hardcore so ill be right again. It's been a while but being lazy wax the issue according to xaviour.
