Never mind this champions league malarky.
Newcastle played out a drab goaless draw against a poor Charlton side tonight.
More than 50,000 people turned up on a very cold wednesday night. (almost 11,000 more than at the Chelsea V Barca game)
Disapointing overall , a clean sheet but no spark or killer instinct from United but still kept the 4th consecutive clean sheet since the departure of souness.
Very much like saturday we were without Alan Shearer and again showed how much we will struggle without the great man , despite how we play.
The whole squad struggle without his presence on the pitch and these failings are plain to see.
Life without him will be very hard , to say the least.
Lots of players should have made thier mark tonight and stood up to be counted but alas , it didnt happen.
Never the less we moved up to 13th and 3 points behind saturdays visitors Everton.
Haway the lads!!
ps , the worst referee in the prem again frustrated the crowd with bizzare decision making and all round ineptness right through the game.
He even blew for half time instead of a foul 1 min before half time , making the crowd get up and head for the exits.
What a clown.
The ref was Mr Token Blackman aka Uriah Rennie if you didnt know.
Imo only there to appease the anti racist mob and a detriment to our game

so didn't see it personally, but it's been mentioned by more than a few peeps I speak to/mail that the ref, while warming up, exchanged tidings with the Barca fans - I'm sure its nothing, but given the focus on the reffing before the match it's going to be picked up on by Blues fans, if no one else.
