You couldn't make it up could you. You'd think we'd deserve a break after the past 24 hours.

half-time at st james park and newcastle remain 1-0 up.

We've just gone 2-0 down in the last minute.

thats how it finished. the next 2 league games against Peterboro' and Scunthorpe are massive for us now.

Crazy own goal there from Derry.

Sounded like we played well considering the situation.

Saturday will be interesting! Bring on Peterborough.

it was a decent performance from the lads. just seems we have bad luck everywhere at the moment. with the chances we missed any other time we may have got a point.

Yeah, looking at the table now makes horrible reading. The way I see it is 50 points is usually enough to stay up in the Championship which means we need 23 points from 20 games. Obviously it all depends on how many players we will lose over the next few days but if Warnock stays on and what with the fighting spirit we have at the club I reckon its more than do-able.

just read on holmesdale.net that Stern John will be playing his last game on loan at Ipswich this weekend and they have no plans to extend it or make it permanent at the moment. hopefully this turns out to be true as it will give us more striking options.

good news is he is expected to stay on for the time being.

Could have a problem again tomorrow naming a full subs bench against Peterboro' as Claude Davis (neck), Paddy McCarthy (shoulder), Sean Scannell (hamstring) and Darryl Flahavan (jaw) are all expected to be out while Johnny Ertl (hamstring) is a doubt.

Gonna take my boots along, just in case.

Really up for tomorrow now, huge game!

the crowd are going to be really up for it. hopefully that relays itself to the players in a big way and they can see how much we're all in this fight together, as one. EEEEAGLES!!

There are two changes from Wednesday's game at St James' Park with Alan Lee brought in to replace Calvin Andrew and Claude Davis takes Johnny Ertl's place. On the bench there is a space for Academy goalkeeper Charlie Mann, while Sean Scannell has recovered sufficiently from his hamstring injury to claim a substitute place.

Line-Up: 1. Julian Speroni; 2. Nathaniel Clyne; 3. Clint Hill; 4. Shaun Derry; 7. Darren Ambrose; 8. Neil Danns; 10. Nick Carle; 15. Lee Hills ; 19. Alan Lee; 20. Danny Butterfield; 24. Claude Davis;

Subs: -14. Sean Scannell; 17. Matt Lawrence; 18. Calvin Andrew; 21. Kieran Djilali; 26. Kieron Cadogan; 28. James Comley; 35. Charlie Mann

neil danns gives us the lead!

Bloody brilliant! Keep it up lads!

its 1-0 at half-time.

Still 1-0. Butterfield has missed a sitter.

2-0! neil danns again!

Neil Warnock apparently told the administrator on Thursday that the two players he was desperate to keep and not be sold before the transfer window closes were Darren Ambrose (for obvious reasons after the season he has had) and Neil Danns (now we can see why!) Great stuff from the lads.

Djilali on for Hills. Andrew on for Lee. 12 minutes left.

Scannell on for Ambrose with just a few minutes left. Good to see him back from injury.

2-0 the final score!

Brilliant result and a great way to bounce back after the past few days. Just got to hope beyond hope that we don't lose a bunch of players in the next 48 hours.

thats moved us to 30 points. we're only 3 points behind doncaster who are 13th. and only 6 points behind bristol city who are in 10th.

Plus, we have a better goal difference than the 10 teams directly above us. But, as I said above we now enter a huge 48 hours. If, come 5pm on Monday we still have the likes of Speroni, Ambrose and Danns still at the club not only will I be very happy but I'll also be confident of us moving up the table in the coming weeks and staying away from a relegation battle.
