That's a dumb yellow from Golec. Going to be very tricky avoiding a 2nd for a big slow fella like him with so much of the game to go.

Glad Lowry escaped the yellow there.

Also thought it was dumb.

Players seem taught to make that foul on the break these days every time, so I won't take it too personally on him.

Newcastle are looking decent.

Can't see us winning 1-0.

I'm glad Golec and Lowry aren't starting players.

Young Burgess needs to learn to place his shots, they've both been really easy for Moss

Struck it sweetly, a shame too close to Moss.

He's great fun to watch. Loves doing things at speed and not afraid to run at defences.

Stop sticking up for the Jets just because they are your second favourite team.

Good to see Fenton adding a bit of cunning to his game! Think he's foxed the ref a few times. Great dummy spit by Georgevski.

Jets are dangerous but despite their sustained pressure I think iwe are about dead set even.

We would have thrashed them if Roy was playing.

Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

He's been foxing refs since he started from what I've seen. Agree he has got smarter as a player though.

I can think of a few places you can stick this comment...

Luckily it is only his right foot - unfortunate though as Kantarovski was going full bore ahead.

He looks in pain as hell.poor bloke

Except we are up by one, forced some saves from Moss .... I don't think Kurto has had anything to save?

Hope Louis' injury is not as bad at it looked... But I'm afraid he's gone for the season. What an unlucky lad. Was having a blinder of a season

jets have had possession and territory but we have looked on counter and based on quality of chances could be up by another one IMO

Ouch of a half- Elliot marking Georgevski, Golec a mixed bag, Burgess looking good, but seemed to miss a bit of awareness at times.

This now the weakest team we've put out huh?

I don't blame Rudan for starting Singh ahead of Sheridan - the pace of the first half was probably too fast for Cilian.

I wanted to see the sherif start too but I think playing two false 9s behind Williams is a masterstroke. We get a lot of ball in dangerous positions and can feed Williams or the overlapping fullbacks with ease

Injuries finally starting to take their toll. We've been lucky so far this season.

Hopefully we can nab a second goal on the break. If not I think the Jets might roll over the top of us, especially with that back line.

Glad we scored after 30 seconds!!!

They should've scored that half, and hard to see them not scoring if the same type of half repeats.

One of the things we are missing without Krishna is the possession he gathers. Also missing some ball players in defence. 

Wonder if Sheridan would help us gather the ball more. 

While Jets should've scored, they've also been a bit inept. One more goal from us could do it. We've counter-attacked dangerously.

Sheridan is a big lad, and from what I've seen is more than willing to drop and help recycle possession. While we look great going forward with Singh and Burgess, they both might as well not be playing when we don't have the ball.
