Newcastle United currently sit at 3rd in the Premier League, but how do the games we’ve played so far compare with last season?

Going back 6 games ago, after the Arsenal comeback game, I did a piece on the next 7 games, namely: Blackburn away Birmingham away Bolton home Everton home Stoke City away Wolverhampton home Aston Villa away. That brings us from February the 12th to present day. In the piece, I mused about such things as, [...]

After the football wasteland that is a round of International friendlies, we can start thinking about ‘proper’ football again…Phew! So, the next 6-7 games. Next up is Blackburn away & Joey Barton has been quoted as saying that his little spat with Pederson is history, which personally I think is good to hear, as Joey [...]

It may well sound like an obvious statement to make, but if ever a more obvious statement has been so vaild then I would like to see it. We now know what the fixtures are for next season, we now know that it is Manchester United away on the first day of the season, again, [...]

Today is a day that should send shivers down the spine of a professional footballer, well any footballer in fact. The Newcastle squad reunite today for pre-season training as they step up their preparation for life back in the big time, and by the end of today those summer indulgences will seem a million miles [...]

Well the fixtures are officially released, and with them now in the public domain it would appear that we will have to gear ourselves up for a tough rebirth into the Premier League. Newcastle have been handed a start away at Manchester United as they try to resettle back in the Premier League again. This [...]

The wait is nearly over for Newcastle fans who can again begin to arrange their lives around the new Premier League fixtures which are finally released tomorrow. Regardless of whether or not we start at home or away, aganst Blackpool or Chelsea, the job of planning our survival, debating where we can nick some points [...]
