The Boxing Day blues continued for Newcastle yesterday as they fell 2-1 at the Reebok Stadium against Bolton Wanderers. Kieron Dyer gave Newcastle an early lead and the Magpies were in cruise control. However Peter Ramage headed past Pavel Srnicek after 26 minutes to hand Bolton a lifeline. That mistake proved the turning point in the game as Anelka went on to score the winner early in the 2nd half denying the Toon of all 3 points.

Was Roeder right to drop Emre to the bench? Did Kevin Nolan push Ramage in the back to send him past Srnicek? Should their equaliser have been disallowed? Were Newcastle commited enough? What would you have done?
