    My best and worst everything NUFC

    Another article inspired by Kyle, I thought I'd talk about my favourite and least favourite things in my time following Newcastle United and I will be keeping it to from my first Toon game in January 2009. Favourite game - 1-0 v Anzhi Makhachkala (14/03/2013) I thought I'd start with my favourite Magpies game and for this one, I'm going to go with the 1-0 win over Anzhi Makhachkala in the Europa League in March 2013. With the score 0-0 in Russia a week earlier, it had been a

    The best NUFC matches since August 1992 (20-16)

    In April 2020, myself and my brother, David created our individual lists of ranking our top 100 NUFC matches since August 1992. This series of articles goes through the top 30 from our combined list. The criteria for the rankings in our lists were subjectively about drama, significance, excitement, result and occasion. 20) Manchester United 0 - 1 Newcastle United - Premier League (07/12/2013) Rob: 6th Dave: 39th Yohan Cabaye scored the game's only goal as Newcastle secured th

    Northumberland councillor sees the positives with the Saudi backed NUFC takeover

    Councillor Richard Wearmouth, Northumberland County Council Cabinet member for Economic Development, spoke to Paul at Newcastle Fans TV about the Saudia PIF backed bid to buy Newcastle United from Mike Ashley for a reported £300 million “Effectively I am wanting to make it clear that this takeover represents a huge opportunity for the North East region. I am responsible for regeneration in Northumberland and literally you could not want anything much more than this to help ch

    Some bullets we've dodged

    I know that all the talk is about takeover that looks like it's about to happen but following on from my article about players we forgot signed for us and the one about the top players we were linked with but didn't sign, let's talk about some other players we were linked with, never signed but this time in doing so, dodged a bullet.

    My day: Newcastle 3-0 Chelsea (May 2018)

    Well since Kyle and Rob have done it, I thought I'd join in with posting about a Toon matchday and I've chosen to look back on another game in 2017-18 season and my favourite one of that season - the final day 3-0 win against Chelsea. Because metro love to do works on their lines north of the Tyne on Toon matchdays, I had to get a replacement bus into town and as usual, headed straight into the ground but did appear in James Sharkey's match vlog and gave my prediction of a 2-

    Some players we forgot signed for Newcastle

    Another article I've decided to do during this pandemic and this time, we'll be looking at players we forgot signed for Newcastle. We won't be including academy graduates who didn't make many first team appearances before leaving as we'd be here all day, it will be senior players signed from other clubs but hardly played and I won't include Achraf Lazaar or Henri Saivet as they're still on the books here. Anyway, let's have look at some of our forgotten men. Jesús Gámez I had

    The top players we've been linked to but never signed

    With it being at least six weeks until our next game thanks to the coronavirus outbreak, I thought I'd do an article and chose to talk about the top players that we have been linked with but never signed. Wayne Rooney In the summer of 2004, Wayne Rooney was tipped to become England's new hero with way he'd started his career and in August 2004, we submitted a £20,000,000 bid for 18 year old despite the addition of Patrick Kluivert earlier that summer. It was rejected and repo

    John Carver's First XI: Where are they now?

    With Newcastle sitting fairly comfortably in the top half of the Premier League at the end of 2014, the board decided to stick with John Carver on an interim basis and restart fresh during the off season. It was a decision that turned out to not be without risk as the club went on their worst run of form in their Premier League history with several consecutive defeats brought them into the relegation dogfight. The fight went to the final day of the season and a memorable 2-0

    Head to head records: Home v Burnley

    The last time Burnley paid a visit to St. James' Park, back in February 2019, the two sides met for the 100th time in league matches which saw local youth academy product, Sean Longstaff score his first senior goal for Newcastle to set up a comfortable win. This fixture also happened to be John Carver's first fixture as interim manager of his disastrous spell in charge, back on New Year's Day 2015 - it was a thrilling match that ended a 3-3 draw. In that game, Steven Taylor s

    Hull City (h), Premier League, 13/09/2008: Lost 1-2 Shay Given: Given became a Newcastle United and Ireland legend for his excellent goalkeeping in his many years on Tyneside and is still today seen as a much loved icon. After departing Newcastle in January 2009 to Manchester City, he moved to Aston Villa where he once again became the main man between the sticks before Brad Guzan came in to restrict his chances. He returned to the north east in the form of a brief loan spell

    January transfer window review

    It was always going to be difficult for us to get players in this January given the amount of senior players already on our books. Unlike previous years when we've named Jack Colback, Henri Saivet and Achraf Lazaar in our Premier League squad (despite the three only making one league appearance between them (which was actually the game that saw Saivet give the ball away for a goal early on before scoring a free kick four minutes later to equalise in a 3-2 win at West Ham in D

    Head to head: Chelsea home

    Frank Lampard will be visiting St. James' Park for the first time as a manager this weekend in game that could go either way as the Sky Sports cameras will be in attendance. In the first half of the 20th century, we had an excellent record when Chelsea came up for a visit to Tyneside which puts our current great recent record in that same category to shame. In the years spanning from 1910 to 1954, we were unbeaten in 19 consecutive league matches at home to Chelsea - winning

    Head to head records: Away v Man United

    Two teams that were once arguably the two powerhouse teams of English football in the 1990s. Alex Ferguson against Kevin Keegan brought famous moments on and off the pitch that have been replayed over the years and have never been forgotten. Specifically the 1995/96 season when Newcastle were 12 points clear at the top of the Premier League. Towards the end of the season, Keegan reacted angrily to comments made by Ferguson which provoked an outburst live on radio which conclu

    Head to Head Records: Home v Southampton

    One of the longest journeys football fans in England will ever have to make is the journey between Newcastle, the northernmost Premier League side, and Southampton. The distance between the two clubs spans 329 miles. It can be argued that the excessive mileage might have a negative effect on the performance of the players of both sides. On the 98 occasions that the two sides have met in their history, the away team has only won 9% of occasions. Both teams go into Sunday's gam

    Full time! Sheffield United 0-2 Newcastle United

    Come on! Could not win at Bramall Lane we were told. What a great team performance tonight! Martin Dubravka made some unreal saves early on to keep Newcastle in the game and he deserves the credit. He was my man of the match today! We were given a chance and, fabulously, they take it! It was an amazing cross by Javier Manquillo and Allan Saint-Maximin scored with a well hit header in the bottom corner. It was an absolute beauty! I want a headband! Newcastle upped the ante

    Head to Head records: Home v Bournemouth

    Encounters between Newcastle United and Bournemouth have been few and far between as far as the histories of the two respective clubs are concerned having only played each other on no more than 12 occasions. Statistics, in this respect, would suggest that this could go either way because wins, losses and draws have been evenly split between them. One statistic in Newcastle's favour going into this match is they are unbeaten in the last three matches against the Cherries. In a

    Chelsea have given Newcastle the blues over the years

    Chelsea are one of few teams to have been ever present in the Premier League and have dished out some thrashings to Newcastle United along the way. Matches between the two sides have been rather eventful and not usually happy ones for the Magpies. Newcastle have only managed to muster up one league win at Stamford Bridge since the 1986/87 season and that came in May 2012 when Papiss Cisse scored one of the Premier League's most iconic goals as Newcastle finished above the Blu

    FIFA 20 ratings

    The FIFA 20 ratings have been revealed and whilst players have been talking about their own ratings on social media, I thought I'd go through all of our player ratings (including the players we have out on loan) and what it could mean for them on career mode. The rating difference from FIFA 19 mentions the rating from when the game was released. Martin Dubravka - 80 (+1 from FIFA 19) This is no surprise and it says something that despite turning 30 in January, Martin Dubravka

    Head to Head records: Home v Watford

    The Premier League's bottom two sides go head to head at St. James' Park on Saturday as Steve Bruce will aim for his first win at St. James' Park as Newcastle manager. Watford's poor finish to the end of last season appears to have continued into the new season as they are the only team in the league yet to register a single point. Considering the Watford board are no strangers to the sacking culture in modern day football, Javi Gracia could well be fearing for his job. Despi

    Both of these teams go into the match on Saturday having lost their respective opening day fixtures against top six sides. Norwich have a few players in the squad with connections to Newcastle. Tim Krul was the Magpies' number one goalkeeper for five seasons, the Dutch goalkeeper managed to keep 49 clean sheets in a Newcastle shirt. Norwich's captain, Grant Hanley spent just over a year at the club and scored in the 6-0 win over QPR in September 2016 before his departure from
