Newcastle destroy Cardiff

By Stephen Farrell on Feb 6, 10 02:47 PM

Well that was easier than we thought it was going to be wasn't it? The general consensus was that it'll probably be a narrow game, and it was likely only a goal would separate the two teams if at all. How wrong we were.

Newcastle stumble to win over Palace

Wednesday night brought what was one of the worst matches in living memory...but three points so all is not dead.

Newcastle in good signing shocker

By Stephen Farrell on Jan 26, 10 02:39 PM

So it has been confirmed that we have signed Wayne Routledge from QPR. First reactions, very good signing in my opinion.

Out of the Cup.

By Stephen Farrell on Jan 25, 10 09:30 AM

Although a little part of me is maybe a tiny bit relieved at our exit of the FA Cup so that we can get our heads down and focus on the league, one can't help but feel ever so slightly shafted by a referee who can only be described as a dunderhead.

Peter Lovenkrands: What a man

By Stephen Farrell on Jan 19, 10 09:19 AM

I don't think there is any other way to start this other than praising Peter Lovenkrands for his determination and spirit. He must be feeling so much pain and anguish following the loss of his father last week, but what a fitting tribute it is to his father (a big football fan) by scoring the equalising goal in a very important game at the top of the table. Peter was clearly close to tears when he scored, and events like this put all of football in perspective when you've got overpaid primadonnas asking for a winter break. To play just three days after one of the worst of his life is a testament to his character.

Newcastle Easily See Off Plymouth to Reach Fourth Round

By Stephen Farrell on Jan 14, 10 09:15 AM

This was as routine a win as you'll see this season, and for many following this. There were two teams here that didn't really want to be there, but they just didn't want to be there more than we did.

The magic of the FA Cup...

By Stephen Farrell on Jan 3, 10 08:34 PM

Yep, you can't beat 3rd round weekend. Nothing better than a draw that ensured that fans would face a 800 mile round trip on the day after New Year to watch an ineffective 0-0 draw with Plymouth.

Disappointing Christmas for NUFC

By Stephen Farrell on Dec 29, 09 06:52 PM

A bit of a cynical title you might think. In the grand scheme of things, we are six points clear going into 2010 and if anyone offered us that at the start of the season, every single one of us would have screamed "yes".

Newcastle beat awful Boro side

By Stephen Farrell on Dec 21, 09 11:51 AM

Another trip to SJP, another 3 points in the bag and we now sit pretty again at the top of the league, 10 points clear on Forest and WBA (having played a game less than us). I always said to myself, I wouldn't start getting carried away unless we were still in this position at Christmas time. Well here we are. And I'm getting carried away.

Newcastle stumble against Barnsley

By Stephen Farrell on Dec 13, 09 10:08 PM

Well the run had to come to an end at some point didn't it? We were never going to win every match for the rest of the season. I'm trying to put a positive spin on Saturday's result.
