Man all this talk about the Battle of Britain between Leeds and Rangers back in the day reminds me of when CArl Shutt came off the bench to score a winner in one of their European games. Memories.

shit. Newcastle deserved to win that, they hit the bar twice and had that chance from Shearer (good save though). Ah well, Uefa cup again

Yeah, but erm...you have to beat us to get in the Uefa.
I thought it was an equal game personally, Southampton were by far the better side in the second half, but Newcastle had the chances, so it was fair. All in all, a brilliant game, and thank god we got into the Champions League ![]() |

Hey, don't get me wrong, I would rather that the team we edged out wasn't Newcastle, and I'd love them to get the Uefa Cup place, but I'm chuffed we're in the Champions League.

Newcastle's defence was aweful, especially Bernard.
I hope Darren Anderton can find a premiership club to join because if he stays injury free he is class and a top bloke. One of the best players we've ever produced ![]() ![]() and God Lawrie McMenamy annoys me ![]() |

Get over the Rangers vs. Celtic thing because we aren't even talking about it here. As for Prso rejecting Milan, that's the first I heard of that rumour (which is all that is). Milan are meant to be after Tore Andre Flo though and that shows ambition doesn't it? You think Milan wouldn't pay their players more money than Rangers? And I'm deluding myself? |

Doesn't matter how long Murray Park has been opened. Its been open long enough to reap the benefits of losing to Kilmarnock in the SFA Youth Cup just the other night. ![]() Prso has no ambition. Simple as. Why would he got to a team that are in decline when he could have chosen another destination where he had a chance to win things and maybe improve his football. Money is what its all about. Same with Boumsong. No one is willing to pay these players 30k plus. Not even Milan. Rangers are. More fool them and more fool you for thinking its anything but. |

Yeah Bernard was good going forward. Southampton had a great penalty appeal, and the lanky Saint should have been sent off. Good goals, good match, shit ref, Graham Poll got rarely anything right.

We were robbed by two things.
Firstly the Ref and secondly our defence. Bramble and Caldwell should find another profession. |

Er Ameobi went clean through was pulled back and had the free kick given against him
![]() The Shearer one was 50:50 I accept that. Shearer didn't get a decision all night. Bernard got tripped up blatently scrabbled along the floor the ref played avantage when he was on his hands and knees. It wasn't like "big" decisions he messed up it was just general fouls not given. Even my scouse supporter friend said that he had a mare. |

Oh and as for the penalty - Beattie went down mad easy. If that penalty was given so should about 100 other fouls. It was an infringement of the rules but if every infringement was given you'd have about 50 penalties a game. It happens at every game at every corner.

Graham Poll got everything wrong. Southampton should have had a penalty. A draw was a fair result. Both teams had plenty of good chances.

Oh yeah and RBF you are way too good for Anderton. He may have been good in his day (though I don't even think that to be honest) but he's so far past it now he should concentrate on getting Big Ron's job or something.

within the next minute Calderwell jumped for the ball and pushed someone down too, Poll had a shocker. You can see when Calderwell pushed Beattie over that he gave alot of force, otherwise why was Calderwell off balance once Beattie went down? If he wasnt pushing him hard he would have not got caught off balance afterwards,

That was a blatant penalty. Caldwell basically just went through him, and didn't even try to go for the ball.

Well whatever obviously I'm mad biased here but I thought the referee was completely shocking and mostly at our expense.
Bottom line: Caldwell is shit. |

Nah, it turned out worse for Southampton, since they should have had a penalty, and Ameobi handballed for Newcastle's first goal.

Well they also should have had Kenton sent off for pulling back Ameobi when clean through.

Truth is, Newcastle have just been too inconsistent this season, and too feeble away from home. If it wasn't for Shay Given, they wouldn't even have been challenging for 4th place. |

Given played rubbish yesterday, with dodgy kicks, its amazing how that southampton player didnt even attempt to whack the ball into the open goal, also giving Beattie that first goal on a plate, couldn't do much about bramble's own goal though.
