It's Monday night. I must be off to the chip shop (West Green) Bikey. Sorry I thought it was 1978 there again for the minute.
But seriously Sportsfans. A new kick off time. Under the lights at St James's Park. Surrounded by 50+ thousand Geordie, neanderthal maniacs.
What could possibly go wrong...??!!!!
Better fire up the donkey El Loppo!!!! - You're arse is heading into the Spanish sunset doulbe rapid!!
Battered Sausage Boogers!?
And it wont be the only battering i think we all fear
PMSL I fear you are right
PMSL I fear you are right Bikey, Taxi for the Paella muncher!!!

Last chance for Lop. I'll reserve further judgement till 90mins is up.
Just seen the team. Was
Just seen the team. Was hoping Ings would have started. Wonder what Paqueta will turn up?
Well
Before the game starts. Anyone not happy with the lineup?
Deluded, I'd have started
Deluded, I'd have started Ings also. Sharper at present. Antonio bulldozing up front on his own. Newcastle will have expected that. El Loppo tactical genius. Did you hear his pre match interview? Might aswell been in Chinese. What chance have the players got? Soler apart!
I hear you
But both Ings or Ants aren't 90 minute players. And in fairness, Loopy hasn't had a fully fit Fullkrug

Oh shit
Orgers player of the season has scored
We are not putting enough
We are not putting enough pressure on the ball. We are allowing Newcastle to play out from the back too easily.
First half thoughts
The players seem to be up for it and playing well but the gaps are still there......Howe to his defenders Soucek is the man to watch if West Ham get a corner and nope they leave him alone and he does what he does.
Performance wise we have done well so far but Antonio is already running out of steam and we have to stop farting around with the ball in our box or it will come back to bite us.
Trouble brewing
Harvey Barnes starting second half big big problem he is a helluva player IMO
Gonna be a long 30 plus

Agree Boogers. Though the whole team put a good shift in. Let's hope they can back this result and performonce up.

I am seeing a confidence, a swagger even, that hasn’t been there all season. Two up and pushing for the third. Now let’s not do anything silly and let them back into the game.
Antonio
MOTM for me.
Splendid
Lop can stay.
I seen it but I don't believe
I seen it but I don't believe it...COYI
Where did that performance come from?
Every player deserves to be applauded they were at it from start to finish and when you compare it to the Forest game you just have to scratch your head.
Not just a great result
But a great performance too. Guessing there's a few Orgers pissed off with this result
well what a game
at last played as a team worked hard for each other that's what we needed well done west ham and what a player Wan-Bissaka is and a balanced formation as well up the hammers a good 3 points
gameplan
Kept it simple every player did there role very well and all were playing for each other no stupid sitting deep and no kamikaze front play leaving ourselves open so yes all in all aour best display of the season
I didnt see that coming.
I didnt see that coming.
I know I'll be forgiven if I
I know I'll be forgiven if I sound a note of caution ,this performance was exceptional and every player deserves high praise, but west ham are west ham,I'm goin to wait till Saturday night at arownd 7 pm before getting to exited, but one things for sure ,if the gooners were watching that game tonight ,they won't be looking forward to Saturdays visit to the Queen Elizabeth 11 stadium .that's for sure.
One snowflake doesn't make a winter
And you are right Burkie not to get carried away by one performance and in showing what they can do the players have to show it was not a flash in the pan and as big a game as it is on Saturday we have to play with the same passion as last night after all the Gooners lost at Newcastle so lets play without fear yes respect the opposition but play the game like yesterday and we have a good chance.
Fabianski should be the first
Fabianski should be the first choice keeper. Played with confidence and made that great save after Todibo's mistake in the box. Fabs played with real confidence and deserved a clean sheet. Antonio started slow but put in a great shift and made himself a nuisance to the Newcastle defenders. Paqueta and Soler had a chemistry in the midfield, but Bowen and Summerville always looked dangerous on counter attacks. Give the defenders credit when Newcastle did not even have a shot on target in the second half. Four players were Man of The Match, Aaron V-B, Bowen, Fabianski and Paqueta.....his best performance of the Season. Loved the energy of the players today as they did not allow Newcastle to delve on the ball. Need to carry this energy against the Gunners on Saturday!!
