Obviously I understand one point is better than zero points, but we needed to win, not only would that have given us two extra points, but also denied Newcastle a point. We are so many points behind now, and other teams are picking up so many points, that drawing matches is leaving us in relative decline.
Our players (Ayew) did well to drag us back into a position where we could possibly win it, and given our hopeless situation I feel the gamble of putting one attacking player on with ten minutes to go would have been worth it. None of us know what the outcome of the sub would have been - it could have resulted in a gut-wrenching loss or a goal that catalysed our charge to safety.
Respect to you for making the trip up there in such atrocious conditions.
