JJ is doing well Nug. As it was a cup game, I agree with the sentiment and at 75 mins switch it up and have a right go. Easier said than done.

What chances Lurker? We played the same way for 95 mins with the same formation. There was no attempt to change patterns of play hence no chances or shots. Don’t rewrite what happened. Jackson set out not to concede and that was the only plan. He had two weeks to create an attacking plan and came up with absolutely nothing. He knew Reeves wasn’t playing so to rely on set pieces makes him look even more inept.

keefy I think if the coaching staff (I'd say this is all of them working together like you've said) are building a really solid structure we've got a proper chance of promotion. I think being a pain to score against is going to be a key part. We also now have 4 strikers who can score against L2 opposition, (which we didn't last season). None of whom were going to score last night without better delivery.

Ah, Robbo 'Mark' Robbo. Totally ill-suited to professional men's football where spectators shout nasty things and the players aren't dropped off by Mum.

It's funny people mentioning WH since we were a bit of a damp squib on the back foot against them in the league cup game that season. Then had the FA cup run and wiped the floor with them. It's only just October. Same people whining now about not winning a league cup game against Newcastle were all over Jackson being sacked for not getting promotion last season. League is still the primary focus. We've shown we can do a decent FA cup run this season with favourable fixtures (which is what we had in the league cup) and that we can be tough for the best sides to break down. Which will carry into the league as well.

Agree Lurker but JJ still has to do a lot more to win over fans. Improving with subs but it took such a long time to happen. Think employing Reddington has helped JJ along the way.

"You could hear the players at times last night", Times reporter Martin Hardy drawing a contrast between Newcastle's win last night and a year ago, when they beat Paris St G at St James's Pk

What time did the coaches get back? Must be some tired wombles this morning

Hash to be fair man u getting tv home or away. But at least you know we'd have a chance.

I find it interesting that the people who judge games on the scoreline not what happens are the ones who keep saying it wouldn't have mattered if we'd conceded another 2 or 3. In your hole it wouldn't, the evidence is the same people would be all over that. I agree with nug, some people do just hate Jackson anyway. We had chances to create, our set piece didn't work well on the night, that's why we only had 2 or 3 shots all night.

Man Ure at home will be on TV so we will get the TV fee

Nug ! Some people have in for Starmer, that's life.

Manure away. We need the money:)

Some of the comments just show it doesn't matter what JJ does some people still have it in for him

TSO, wonder how the Burtons fans feel....bet Sweeneys gutted he turned up 😂

Good defensive showing last night, so we'll have to settle for manure at home in January for our 3rd round match in the FA Cup

MAD, won’t be his fault though. It’s the board, scouting, data analysts, etc. The messiah could never be a bad manager.

For the stato's, is Mark Robinson's management career of 28 games without a league win a record?

Wu, is that his 3rd relegation? Pretty sure he went down with Bournemouth and Sheff Utd too.

Sad to see Ramsdale’s career going downhill. Almost certain to be related with Soton.

We’ve got some very decent players this season. Credit also to Goodman who is looking more solid.

Great defensive performance last night which was all it was ever going to be. Shame our set piece delivery was absolutely woeful as that was our any realistic way we were going to score. Important now we push on and keep grinding wins out. Thought Joe Lewis was fantastic and Bugiel gave everything he had.

Onwards now - hopefully we can get something at Salford; they’re 20th, but I guess that’s pretty meaningless at this stage of the season…. Next, get that pitch up to scratch, and start catching up with the games in hand 👏

And cheers to the person who twice offered to get me a drink from the concourse.

Just home- last subs on after 82 to press would have been fine, if a few minutes too late. All worked very hard, and have to agree that set-pieces were poor. Thought we actually had a shot on target at the end.
