Can't imagine us not doing it really At least in the first half.

Safety first and all that

If it gets a result then great but it's not particularly inspiring. We've not even tried to win the last 4 games.

Park the bus and get them on the break. Hopefully we'll win a few corners and take a chance.

At this stage of the season I think it's enough to be hard to beat.

Well we should have beat swansea if Thomas decided not to dive and we could have beat Sunderland had KG not missed a sitter. Finally we have a quality manager who might keep us up and people complaining because we dont play like Arsenal on their streams. Pathetic.

(Not this thread). I hope we park the bus if it gets us a point.

It's not about playing like Arsenal.

It's about setting up to at least ATTEMPT to win the game- especially against weaker teams such as Swansea and Sunderland- both of whom were there for the taking. I think Newcastle is a winnable game but it wont be with a midfield three of KG, Jedi and Ledley pinned back in our own half for 90% of the game.

It will be exactly the same as last week except Newcastle will score unlike Sunderland.

Park several, and ideally score a goal, then park several more.

We're going to have to park the bus at some point or the team won't be able to get off.

Oh, that's not what you were getting at.

I don't want us to play like Arsenal. I want us to try and wins game. KG's chance was the only one we had on Sunderland.
Southampton we made no effort to try and really grab a goal back.
Swansea we were so awful in the first half we had to try and do something.

I'd be happy to play direct long football and get balls in the box and occasionally gamble.

If we stay up Pullis will be a legend but I just think with a bit of ambition we could be 5 or 6 points clear.

Jeckyll and Hyde Newcastle - if we go at them we could get stuffed, or win comfortably
I would go for pragmatism, and hit them on the break - three times

I fear this. It also means when we get a chance we snatch at them.

If Cameron Jerome didn't snatch at chances he'd be a much better player.

Disagree really. It's not particularly entertaining but I do find it quite inspiring.

We are not even as good as the poor Prem teams around yet we are hanging in there through hard work and organisation.

It's a means to an end as we don't have the quality of player needed to try and out-football the opposition. If we stay up then I for one couldn't give a monkeys how it was achieved. However, if we do stay up then I'd expect to see some improvement next season.

It's exactly what Newcastle will expect us to do, so their players will be in a slow start mindset.

Therefore we'll go at them from the whistle, their players will still be in the dressing room.

People seem to miss this. It probably does give us the best chance of taking 3 points off superior teams. The odds are not in our favour and sometimes it works. And I usually find that celbrating a last minute winner makes up for all sorts of frustration.
