Fight we will
Tonight will be a crunch game. We go into the game without any goals, any confindence and 1 point to show for after 3 games. So tonight, we shall kick off our season. Well, there is a problem though. Its the manure scums....
After the Bolton farcical, i was at crossroads again, over the situation of our current beleguered manager. Same time last season, saw us losing to Villa 4-2 and the imminent departure of Sir Bobby Robson. We have to score and get something out of the game. Don't mind losing the game but with pride and dignity restored. We have to after what has been calamity of a start to the season.
Quotes from Nufc.com --
On the anniversary of Sir Bobby Robson's last game in charge of Newcastle United, we go looking for our first home win since March 5th - and our first goal of the season - when Alex Ferguson's boys are on Tyneside.
With just one win in our last 13 Premiership games we come up against a side who are looking to maintain their 100% start to the season after beating Everton and Aston Villa without conceding a goal.
We will fight on and fight till the end. After all, it's only the 4th game of the season. I hope the players will not surrender meekly yet again. It's time to kick some manure butts...
For some of us, last season's last game in charge for Sir Bobby Robson was one bitter pill for us to swallow. Recalling memories of the sad day makes me want to shed a tear.

Bobby Robson chose the same method as his predecessor to bring to an end his time in charge at Newcastle - by dropping Alan Shearer to the bench. And like with Ruud Gullit, it almost worked with United going 2-1 up at Villa Park after being behind early on.
But Bobby's luck ran out with the score at 2-2. Craig Bellamy scampered in on goal and when ex-mackem Tommy Sorensen came out, the 'keeper handled outside of his box - an automatic red card but incredibly referee Mike Riley only gave a yellow.
From then on, we capitulated to a degree that was even extraordinary for Newcastle, leaving fans bemused and frustrated. Not many were calling for Sir Bobby to get the chop but something had to give....
The match report was superbly written. Truth hurts. Read it.
