We finished strongly and on another day could have nicked the win at the end. Thats a real positive iMHO - we often look out on our feet after about 70 minutes.

Yes, definitely, I can’t think either Plymouth or ourselves would want a replay - bigger fish to fry etc. Same for many of the smaller clubs with part time players, I should imagine - won’t want to have to take time off work

Yes, agreed - another issue is that, if Newcastle are still in the relegation zone when the transfer window opens in January - and that seems reasonably likely at the moment - they may find it difficult to attract new players. After all, how many ambitious and up and coming players would want to join a club that might realistically be playing in the Championship next season ?

Perhaps one of the 6 people who have given my comment above the “ ha ha “ response might like to let us all know why as I’m struggling here

At the end of the day, it’s a good result and another point on our travels. I think, at the end of the day, most of us would have taken a point at kick off

Hampton and Richmond away would suit me, but the ground is in Hampton, not Richmond, so I’d have to take the bus. I thought the 1st and 2nd rounds were done on a regional basis though, so the above wouldn’t happen Can anyone on here confirm one way or the other whether this is the case ?

I’d like to see a confident, positive and attacking approach to these games. Get in their faces from kick off. Let them worry about us, not the other way round I’m not holding my breath though

When other clubs stop doing it, then I think it’s time to start fining our players, but not before

Bolton scored 5 and 4 goals respectively in recent away games at Ipswich and Charlton, yet only managed 1 shot on target yesterday over the full 90 minutes. Some might say therefore that Moore was right to be wary of their attacking threat and to give him - and the side - credit for keeping Bolton at bay relatively easily.

I think a draw would be a good result for us today, definitely one point gained rather than two lost. I expect KL to have a blinder and possibly an “assist” or two. Hope I’m wrong, but I’m going for Bolton to win 2-1.

Never liked Newcastle - the fans seem to have that arrogant sense of entitlement and that they’re a “big club” Probably won’t happen now, but I’d just love it, just love it, if they got relegated this season.

One of the main advantages of playing a long ball game - rather than playing out from the back - is that, when possession is conceded, the ball will usually be further up the pitch and in a less dangerous position. Rather worryingly, DM doesn’t appear to have grasped this fact yet.

And will the stadium become an alcohol free zone with 50 lashes for anyone found breaking this rule ?

When the seagulls follow the trawler, it’s because they expect sardines to be thrown into the sea - I can speak in riddles, too !

We don’t have many people who are comfortable on the ball or who can consistently pass accurately. So we have to compensate for this by using pace and power - something else which seems to be in short supply
