1-0 win keeps Newcastle fans smiling, despite what the media say
Posted by JamesB in Newcastle | 16 December 2007
There is a lot of talk about whether Newcastle fans would rather win 1-0 or lose 5-4 these days. I can't speak on behalf of our thousands of fans but I know I for one am perfectly content with 1-0 victories. Last night's game was no different.
The huge travelling contingent was euphoric when Joey Barton converted a penalty that seemed to be given for absolutely no reason whatsoever. It capped off a game that was by any stretch of the imagination very dull. The away fans had little to cheer until the last minute, although we still managed to make a racket for the whole 90. What was great to see was the lads once again battling right until the death; it has earned us four points over the past week, long may it continue!
Whether I am the only fan that is happy with such a win isn't for me to decide; I do know that had we lost 5-4 we would be three points worse off and my spirit this morning would be much lower. Roll on Derby - 1-0 will do me just fine.
