Toon Army …Phew!

[Bobbisox1]

We needed those points

[Canary42]

Woe woe woe !

[Bobbisox1]

Not out the woods yet though Canary :0/

I actually have a lot of time for Newcastle. With the size of gates they get consistently they ought to be up in the top six on a regular basis. It seems Ashley didn't do them any favours. Now with their new owner, and a good Manager I don't think they will end up anywhere near the relegation zone - but there again I still have some faint hopes for the survival of the Canaries.

[Bobbisox1]

I really hope so Canary , it’s a religion here haha

I'm sooo glad that Newcastle are doing well now (looking at the BBC website ... they're the only team in the Prem, apart from Liverpool, to have won their last three games).
My pal and I have got tickets for Brighton's game in Newcastle on, hang on, I think it's 5th March? ... and the atmosphere will deffo be more jolly if Newcastle are on the up.
So, come on the Magpies ... (except on 5th March, obviously) x

Was Alan Shearer in charge of the VAR.

[joggerjayne]

Oh, so ... they were playing Villa??
Er, hi, Tony x

[tonyav]

Yep.

Hiya jj x

[joggerjayne]

Oh, just looked ... Villa are also doing well this season

(now as well as Brighton, of course)

[sunny-dave]

No, Tony - it was a blind referee and his guide dog had the day off ....

[tonyav]

LOL
Robbed of a goal today though.

[joggerjayne]

Oh. I didn't see it.

[tonyav]

sunny-daveNo, Tony - it was a blind referee and his guide dog had the day off ....

And Shearer on the VAR.

My little mischief-maker was watching the Rugby earlier and shouting, "C'mon Wolves" much to our amusement.

[joggerjayne]

But, I mean ... Newcastle really did need those points.

Brighton are safe this season.

And Villa, too.

So, you know ... you can't begrudge Newcastle three points, right?

x

[tonyav]

The Wolves did win though, LCG.

[LadyCG]

Not while the Rugby was on, Tony...

[tonyav]

you can't begrudge Newcastle three points, right?

Yes when it's at Villa's expense.

[joggerjayne]

Villa will be okay.

I've been to a Seagulls game at Villa. We drove up )I know, I can't remember why). There was a sort of warehouse complex, with a really high fence, and it was about five minutes from the ground. We crossed the road, and I think we walked past some sort of church thing??
The Away seats were quite good. High up, but along the side of the pitch, with a good view. I'd deffo go there again. Although I think we'd stay next time.

The Doug Ellis stand, jj.
