FOOTBALL IS BACK! Not quite as we know it but it is back! We begin our restart to the season against Sheffield United at St. James' Park that was going to take place before the FA suspended the football calendar the day before this match was due to take place. Despite being in the bottom half of the table, we currently sit a safe eight points clear of the relegation zone with nine games remaining. But anyway, back to what this article is really all about, analysing our head t

So takeover speculation has re-appeared but whether it's a PR stunt to divert attention away from Mike Ashley's recent pathetic treatment of people working for his companies or it's actually real, the Telegraph (who've reported on deals being agreed for transfers involving Miguel Almiron, Ayoze Perez, Joelinton and Danny Rose before Sky in the past eighteen months) have reported that paperwork was submitted to the Premier League last Tuesday. Meanwhile, George Caulkin wrote i

Four days a week I walk in to work opposite the cathedral on the hill, trotting down Barrack Road, it hits you full in the face to scream at you with it's beauty towering over you. As I walk towards the Gallowgate, I can't help feel sad we will all lose the views looking at the Gallowgate Stand as we make our way to a game, or walking past the ground and for me I work in the Welbar Central building which faces the eastern side of the Gallowgate Stand by the Strawberry Car Par

Bolton (h), Premier League, 19/01/2008: Drew 0-0 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 wi

Recent history between Norwich and Newcastle guarantees goals. A total of no fewer than 28 goals have been scored between the two sides against each other in the last five matches. Those matches include the two stunning victories in October 2015 - when Georginio Wijnaldum scored four goals to give Newcastle a 6-2 win - and in September 2016 which saw Dwight Gayle bag a hat-trick to help the Toon win 4-3 with a 96th minute winner coming from Gayle after Norwich went 3-1 up in

Statistics show that Newcastle and Wolves have been fairly even in league matches against each other however Wolves have been more dominant over the Magpies in the FA Cup. However, in this fixture, Molineux has not been a happy hunting ground for Newcastle to visit in the top flight. Back in October 2011, goals from Demba Ba and Jonas Gutierrez gave Newcastle their first top flight victory at Molineux since September 1958, a barren run that features no less than 14 matches. W

Allardyce got off to the perfect start in what turned out to be a brief spell as manager of Newcastle. Soon after Glenn Roeder's departure towards the end of the 2006/07 season, Allardyce left Bolton after serving there for eight years. He helped the Trotters gain promotion to the Premier League and kept them there. Coincidentally, Allardyce's first game for Newcastle was a return to Bolton for the opening day fixture. He got off to a flying start thanks to goals from Charles

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

Well its been a while, but Newcastle United are sitting pretty in the top half of the Premier League. Why? I believe the most obvious reason, is the upturn in our home form. Take the last two seasons as an example; In the 2017-18 season, home defeats to Bournemouth, Watford, and West Brom were all games that you would be hoping to take three points from, especially with the tactical genius of Rafa in the dugout. In the 2018-19 season, Newcastle slumped to dreary home defeats

Newcastle United go to Tottenham's new stadium for the first time on the back of two defeats to kick off the new campaign. The last time Newcastle paid their first visit to a Premier League stadium was back in November 2006 in a 1-1 draw against Arsenal in the Gunners' first season at the Emirates Stadium. The trip to Tottenham has certainly provided interesting encounters in recent history with the Magpies having never come away with a draw from the North London club since a

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

“Everything in life has a budget. At the start of the season, Lee Charnley and I will sit down and I will say ‘I need X,Y and Z’ for the projects we want to try and do. This is the priority and I’m going to go as far down that list as I can get and if I can keep on going down that list, then I’ll keep on going. “I try to get as much as I can done but I also know there is a limit on what we can spend each year - if want to do other thing as well, it’s not just my department, w

The first players to leave us in the summer were Vurnon Anita, Sammy Ameobi, Lubomir Satka and Haris Vuckic, who were all released at the end of their contracts. It took a while to make our first signing as Florian Lejeune finally arrived from Eibar on 4 July whilst Graham Carr left his role as chief scout and Matz Sels joined Anderlecht on loan. Later that week, we were linked with wingers Sheyi Ojo, Jesus Navas, Adama Traore and Jacob Murphy and the latter was signed from N

“I have nothing to prove to Bournemouth. I think they are a very good team and they have a great manager, they are very good on the ball, so it will be a very difficult game. But we will work hard to try and win the game for the fans because they deserve it. "I was unlucky there, I had a lot of injuries when I was in Bournemouth and the team was also doing well so it was difficult for the coach to change the squad. The blame is not on anybody. This is football so I’m just wor
