Reading have ridden their luck and will drop off.
Yes Newcastle are guaranteed to win the league. Isn't that right [MENTION=30242]spence[/MENTION]?That CAN'T be right?
Newcastle are supposed to WALK this league by just turning up and everybody else is playing for 2nd place, so I keep reading.
Hopefully their FIVE defeats so far will be overturned by the Dubious Decisions panel and the mighty Geordies can resume their rightful place of 13 points clear with a game in hand. S'only right.

And BBC Sport still haven't updated it. Still top, though.

Thought he looked knackered at the end, but agree he was quality. Bong will struggle to get back in on that performance.
Agreed. Lack of match fitness showed at the end as you say, but aside from that he was excellent.

Poco had a great game considering his 1st real opportunity and thought Sam deserved a goal for all his running taking defenders out

What was tonight's attendance? Looked like quite a small crowd (trains).

With a game on Tuesday and Hughton's talent at managing the squad I think Bong will be straight back in to give us fresh legs along with Sidwell and Skalak.

We were very good tonight and did what was necessary, fair play to the Leeds fans who supported their team well

I guess there nearly home now with our excelent train connections to London and beyond.....
Lovely evening. Complete control at the back, Leeds could still be playing now and not have scored. Sidwell rested, Pocognoli looked like a beast of a left back and Solly got some game time.

Probably one of the most one sided game of the season , we started really well and we controlled the whole match. We looked the better team before the pen , Leeds were not very good tonite not one shot on target . Well done to the lads

I felt we played this like a testimonial game. Very much within ourselves, nobody broke into a sweat and we won it in first gear. I haven't looked at possession stats but we may well have been in the 70's. I did think payback for Dunk getting a pen after that one given against him last season. That was a stride, not a gallop. We are ticking all the right boxes.
Massive, massive difference at the back - whilst they were individually solid etc, they were awful at playing the ball out. Our defenders all have a great touch, are happy to do that and play the ball upfield. Almost every time, the Leeds back four hoofed it into touch or lost possession.

Did anyone see what happened in the SW corner with the Leeds player, it looked like he had a go at some older age Brighton fan before ripping the sky mic out.
