I saw this game from beginning to end, city were awful. In the first half they just passed and passed and passed, bit like Arsenal really.

Yea Ameobi fluked the first goal and the second goal was also a fluke but any sane person who only just turned the telly on at half time would think that Newcastle were still playing with 11 men and playing deep. For all Citys' possesion Newcastle were still attacking the City goal forcing corners and freekicks left right and centre.

City just passed around the box the majority of the second half, couldn't even get close to the goal apart from both Ireland shots. Gratz to Given on that awesome save btw.

The penalty, yes i thought it was a penalty at first but having watched the replays careful using sky+ i did notice slight contact with the ball, then he went through Robinho and touched the bal again. But i think the ref made the correct decision as Beye took more of the player than the ball so it was right decision.

just remind me lewin when we play Arsenal and Man Utd in nov if they pass the ball more and shoot more then were doin better cause there passing and shooting more :whistle:

well when your passing the ball around your own half and shooting straight at the keeper from 30 yards I might agree, you obviosly never watched the game so I dont know how you dare comment. Seriously if you believe you's cut us open and had 20 fantastic shots from in and around the area your wrong, you resorted to ambitios shots from a distance as you couldn't break down the defence.

Apart from Ameobi's flukey goal, did Newcastle create any clear-cut chances?

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

if you never got the fluke penalty and sending off we would have won easily.

Doubt it...you would've played with a more attacking mentality (obviously) so who knows who would've won...the game would've had a completely different complexion.

Damien Duff in the first half cutting into the box and tryd to bend it round hart, and a few flashed passed the 6 yard box that no-one got anything on, howevr if you asked if City created any clear cut hances the answer would be no.

It doesnt matter how the goals we're scored, you didnt show the urgency to get quality balls into the box, the only piece of quality in the entire 2nd half was the Ireland goal and that says a lot.

You should have killed the game in the first half, instead you let them score possibly the shitest goal ever in the premiership and then a quality Geremi corner forced Dunne into an own goal. Even after going down City still didnt show any urgency in trying to win the game. The only urgency i saw inthat game came from Mark hughes ranting at the players from the touch line.

But that will come with experience and you will get better.

he got a toe on the ball first, in the rule of the game it was not a penaly and it was not a red card.
