Newcastle 3 West Brom 1

It seems a little late in the day to be talking about our last game, with our next just around the corner, but once again real life has endevoured to intervene and prevent more timely posting. This will probably therefore be quite brief.

Another win and three goals (though not quite the clean sheet). Can't really complain. Well...it wouldn't be the same otherwise, would it? Souness sticks to his very debatable team selection, again leaving a distict lack of width. The introduction of Robert made more difference to our chances of ever actuall scoring than the (admittedly helpful) dismissal of an opposition player. With the natural width and quality crosses things could finally begin to happen. Fluidity came, we played, they lost a man and from then there could only really be one outcome. It's just a pity our defensive frailties denied the clean sheet again...we have to learn to be on guard all the time and better at it too.

The next game is a different prospect entirely and one in which the resting of players like Robert could well be justified (but on those arguments it would be difficult to then justify including three strikers---assuming everyone's fit). Let's see what this new man comes up with, eh. A victory would be could, but hey, we'd take the draw.
