Rupp(knee) is out though the injury is not serious. Idah and Omorbamidele are out for the rest of the season, as is Kabak who has returned to his parent club for treatment. McLean has a fractured toe but is fit to play, Lees-Melou came off last time out with cramp but is fit to play again today.

Referee: Chris Kavanagh. Assistants: Marc Perry, Matthew Wilkes. Fourth official: James Linington. VAR: Simon Hooper. Assistant VAR: Wade Smith.A little bit of knowledge: Newcastle United were formed in 1892 following the merger of Newcastle East End and Newcastle West End - hence the 'united' representing the unification of the two clubs. Their home ground of St. James' Park is believed to be the oldest in England and fixtures were played there prior to the merger of the two clubs in the 1880's. They have historically won the old First Division title four times, three of which came in 1905, 1907 and 1908, the last was in 1927. They also have 6 FA cup titles to their name. In case it needs reminding, Alan Shearer remains their top scorer with 206 goals.Rays Funds for the Community Sports FoundationNutty has his PUPs thread up and running as usual.

Middle 3 our season long weakest link, but to be reasonable they have been improving lately. Let's see if Pukki can make it 3 in 3.

king canary 7,599 Posted April 23, 2022 Wondering if it is maybe time to move on from Rupp this summer. Good player but just can't stay fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,157 Posted April 23, 2022 Only Normann of the loanees in the starting eleven. Are we to read something in that? I hope so. What we have seen of him at his best would rip the Chumps wide open. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green Canary 21 Posted April 23, 2022 Hasn't McLean got a broken toe? I'm no medic, but don't you need your feet to work pretty well at this level? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarybubbles 1,915 Posted April 23, 2022 At least Smith hasn't changed the formation which has looked fairly good in the last two games. Although I'm expecting a touch of Billy in the second half. Can Smith snatch defeat from possible victory again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
