It’s been nearly four months since promotion back to the Premier League was guaranteed.
The mood was optimistic and getting promoted so early would surely mean we could steal a march on the competition in the transfer market, right?
Wrong, or so it seems. Here we are with only 13 days of the transfer window remaining, [...]

Now you probably thought when you saw the headline that this would be yet another Ben Arfa article, correct?
Well it is, sort of, but I am more using his name to lauch into another tangent of thought, although these same thoughts can be applied to any player of a certain ilk in fairness.
As a [...]

Ok, I apologise if any of you feel that I am covering over old ground here, but it was mentioned the other day by someone and it got me thinking.
Whatever happened to the name change that was supposed to be happening at St James’ Park?
Most of you will know what I am talking about when [...]

The new Newcastle kits have been out for a while now, but still the debate rages on as to whether or not people like them or not.

Between the vast swathes of speculation in these last few weeks, I nearly managed to forget that a certain anniversary is about to be upon us.
That is an anniversary to mark Mike Ashley having owned Newcastle United for three years! Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun eh?
Technically, Ashley completed the sale three years ago [...]

It’s a simple concept really, one that is free to implement, and one that has actually made me agree with something that is written in the Sunday Sun!
It is of course the concept of communication, or the lack of it. First off, from my perspective of writing articles on here, a lack of communication and [...]

Kicking off the latest chapter in our one year retrospective of all things Newcastle United and NUFC Blog, we move on where we left off, with an Ashley rant from Hugh de Payen. This one is from November 4th of last year and is called “Random gripe about the random Toon“. [...]

It was a noble thought, a thought that was backed by many fans of NUFC, and a thought that was supposed to unite the Premier League.
