I honestly did think it was the right thing to do...

And I'm not trolling or being contrary (half the time i get accused of being a sheep)

But, we were 4-3-2, and two of those 3 were mentally and physically f**ked. Newcastle were playing 4 and a half in midfield - they'd have annihilated us.

Cant drop Elmander back - he's useless at playing anywhere other than what he knows - he'd have been an absolute passenger in the game.

        Thank you. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Jan 28, 22:26:09
        
        who cares about how many shots we had? (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 28, 22:23:11
