Is this Martin Tyler? Guy's lost it these days, should've retired a few years back as well past his best now.
Nah it was the co commentator not sure who it is though

Feet up at home.
Hope they can recover. Must be really uncomfortable for Ginola too he looks quite upset but holding it together.

Commentators and TV studio people are often quite hard to watch in these situations. They should just say it's a medical emergency and leave it at that. It's not part of the theater and shouldn't be treated as such.

Newcastle just need to get shot of Bruce really. Felt inevitable they'd concede again with the long stoppage so game probably gone.

Their next two are Palace away and Chelsea at home, can't see them winning either.

After that though they have a run of Brighton, Brentford, Arsenal, Norwich and Burnley both at home so that's where they need a new manager in place and 2-3 wins.

There's an international break after Brighton so they'll probably have the new manager in place for then with a temp manager in the meantime unless they find someone sooner

Just sack him regardless, he's going to kill the euphoria around the club with his woe is me act in the media

I actually thought it was poignant for Sky to highlight the actions you should take if you're a bystander who may need to administer CPR.

I appreciate it must have been difficult for Ginola to do so but personally had me revisiting my basic first aid course from years ago..

Seems like they're just playing the game out now really, newcastle look already beaten and spurs look bored.

Will be difficult to get people in Jan, and by then they might already be too far gone.
I think their owners will give the new manager a target of 12-15 wins from the remaining games. For a decent manager it won't be too difficult plus the new manager bounce will be there. If they can get 5-6 good players in plus say Potter as the manager, they can avoid the drop. Then expect them to make waves in the summer window.

Sorry should have been specific, I was watching NBC and not Sky. Good on them for providing useful information.

Newcastle losing and Lukaku not scoring are the best things about this weekend. Pretty damn sad.
