Should make it an even match. Newcastle dont have a defence and we dont have an attack. I feel very sorry for those that have bothered to go -if we lose this there will quite rightly be melt down on here.

Jesus Christ, four centre backs, four defensive midfielders, McClean and Anichebe? At what point does this become match fixing?

Totally bewildered that while TP won't play Poco as LB he takes up a space on the bench - why????
If he's that untrusted surely Gamboa is more versatile as a sub.
I'm also baffled by the starting XI, but I've also stopped trying to fathom out what's behind our selections.
I've got no coaching badge so what do I know, just 40 odd years of watching & following the Albion and I like to think I know something about our players and where they're supposed to play.

Pulis "I'd like to have gone with a better balanced team". I assume he means another couple of defenders?
RE: Newcastle vs WBA - Match Thread - betterthanbaird - 06-02-2016
I assume Anichebe is playing because he did really well when we played Newcastle earlier this season and he started. I thought Sess had looked good recently but others said he'd lost form, either way Gardner normally isn't the answer especially when Newcastle have a young winger at left back, unless we're just worried that they'll be too good for us going forward on that side, which is understandable but doesn't merit such a defensive team. Chester might shock everyone and look at least average.
On the bright side if we hold on for as long as possible we do have a lot of options on the bench.

First game I've missed for a while, apparently gardener with a decent pen shout? Anyone esee it
RE: Newcastle vs WBA - Match Thread - BaggieMan - 06-02-2016
Just outside the box LEB
With a bloke the size and build of Sicknote, its remarkable how easily he falls over and gets knocked off the ball.
Same with Rondon I suppose
That was coming - the Toons should be out of sight.
RE: Newcastle vs WBA - Match Thread - Zinman - 06-02-2016
How utterly predictable. Any chance we can try to score now we've gone behind?
RE: Newcastle vs WBA - Match Thread - wba_1996 - 06-02-2016
The prick should be sacked on the spot. That line up is a disgrace to the history and tradition of this football club and an embarrassment to the sport.
I hope we get relegated if it means Pulis goes, then I can go back to supporting my team.

After 27 mins sky reporting that Newcastle had 80% possession.
