What the hecks going on at St James's Park?

Thanks for the tip .. what an amazing scoreline

Demolition job this, and they haven't let up either. Walked into the pub 5 mins late and did a double take (heh) at the scoreline.

Great to see.

Newcastle must be disappointed at not managing to score even one in the last 25 minutes of the half…

The Toon have finally scored number six, after conceding soon after the restart…

It can't be often that 4-0 seems like a low-scoring match…

4-0 Seems fine to me

A massive result for West Ham, especially with some tough games coming up starting with Liverpool mid-week.

An away win for the first time in over a year for Ayrshire's finest, over St Mirren. As much as we were excellent they were really poor. Their guy getting sent off with 2 bookings in 14 seconds was hilarious.

Not one, but two goals and a clean sheet! Happy days.

Definitely a great away win, although United winning away was probably just as significant for you and saints, as that confirmed their top 6 status for the first time since the split became a thing. Should be an interesting scrap for safety now.

My concern is if it comes down to goal difference. Scoring has been a problem for as long as I can remember, without a Boyd or Naisy, or even Eremenko putting it on a plate for Sammon.

Goal difference would be a horrible way to settle it, let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Bet ya both of these cup teams are going geez , not sure I want to get spanked in the cup final ! Let’s try and not score

 

[AndyRM]

Great game for the neutral!

As always, you have to feel for the guy that missed.

 

[MrGrumpy]

You would have to have City as favs ? Cup finals can be weird though .

A rare moment of insight from the pundits saying the players taking them after the main 5 are under more pressure because they have to score and haven't stepped up in the first place.
