That's what happens when Newcastle finally play a top team

Arsenal and Spurs don't count then?

Thought we played OK in the first half and frustrated them a fair bit (Their fans were certainly getting impatient, half of them had pissed off for their sandwiches by the time they got their first). Had a few chances we should have buried and I think 3-1 was a bit flattering for City. Can't see anyone getting a result at the Etihad this season though, so I don't see how this gives us any more indication of where we stand in relation to anyone else, unless you want to start comparing how badly teams have been beaten by the 11 greedy bastards?

Spurs were away and tbh, I don't think arsenal are as good as they were last year (although they are on form now)
I don't see how anyone is going to beat City to the title this year

I'm not wanting or expecting us to be vying for postition with Man City though, but with teams that would normally not be expecting to get points from Arsenal or Spurs, even at home, and who would be writing off city away and losing the odd game to teams like Stoke, Villa and Everton.

Good result for spurs (2-0), puts us up to 3rd in the league. Adebayor should have got a hatrick though, he scored two then missed alot of chances including a 1 on 1 with Given

It looks like City are going to have a challenge to get to the knock phase of the CL.

I'm going to be so sad if they get knocked out if they win against Bayern and then Villareal can't even muster a draw against Napoli.

Chelsea fuck up as well

1-0 to Man U from a flukey goal. Horrible chav Rooney got away with lashing out again.

 

[BlueStar]

Get in! Was standing next to some Man U fans in the pub when they had their goal disallowed as well, Haha! Plus the Mackems lost to Wigan, fucking immense.

 

[Satangel]

FFS, sad. So sad. Hopefully Liverpool wins against City tomorrow, would help us a lot.

 

[rockstar99]

Rooney... what a twat.
SHould have seen Red

 

[BlueStar]

Well we're fourth for now and the only teams we haven't played are Norwich, Swansea, Chelsea, West Brom, Bolton and Liverpool. Have we played anyone yet?

Also, the Premier League match report makes my blood boil.

http://www.premierle...2528823,00.html

Newcastle United clinched a draw as Manchester United fell further behind in the race for the Barclays Premier League title.

United were left disappointed as a Demba Ba leveled the scores at Old Trafford.

Both teams are United you fucking planks!

EDIT:

Wales boss and Newcastle legend Gary Speed has died aged 42

RIP Gary Speed, far too young to go

 

[emigre]

FFS I thought it was a joke. Christ, he was a good player who was also a bloody decent bloke. I'm just don't know what to say, he was Mr Reliable. It's just so surreal, I was only watching him on TV yesterday and now he's dead.

RIP Gary Speed. A fine Captain and Manager.

Suicide apparently?
