Referee for Newcastle or Early Goal

Hope its not Chris Foy or Halsey.

I'll be happy with Howard Webb or Mike Dean. We need a ref who is strong and won't be easily influenced by the crowd. I suspect tomorrow's game will have some really tough calls in the Geordie penalty area considering how much emphasis Newcastle put on defence and us on Attack.

Their fans make a hell lot of noise and a weak referee will be intimidated and get on their side early in the game.

The only solution I can see to this prospective problem is to ether get a strong referee or to score an early goal that will de-morale-ise them.

Thoughts?

We don't really put that much impetus on defence. I don't even know what that means when you say it like that but we are the home team and will be taking the game to you.

"We don't really put that much impetus on defence."

This. Just cos we're good at it doesn't mean we constantly do it. More of a fallback if we need it

4-0 Newcastle is my prediction.
