On the event of Newcastle United’s promotion to the Premier League, I decided to take a look at some of the statistics of Newcastle United’s season in the Coca Cola Championship, and here are some of the results. Chris Hughton is the sixth manager in Newcastle United’s history to acheive promotion into the top tier [...]

Good words today coming from two of our players, Andy Carrol and Kevin Nolan, with both of them saying the best thing to get over a defeat is another game, and that comes in the shape of Newcastle United’s home encounter with Crystal Palace on Wednesday evening.

Apparently following in the footsteps of David Ginola and Laurent Robert, Fabrice Pancrate [...]

Once again, Newcastle United managed to leave us feeling slightly underwhelmed, and yet still went top of the league after taking all three points at Bramall Lane. The fact that we managed to grind out a 1-0 win against the red and white half of Sheffield was largely down to luck at their end, resilience [...]

Yesterday’s review of the current squad, took a look at the Newcastle defence, an area that this season we’ve been surprisingly strong in, given our poor reputation in recent years. Tonight looks at arguably the fulcrum of a successful team, the midfield, the place that could and should control a game and dictate the style [...]
