  Yet Another Shocking Saga For United Fans As Club Raided

  Those of us who have been around Newcastle United for any length of time know that with this club nothing is ever easy. Nothing is ever straightforward. It has always been thus. So why did we expect anything different this time? The elation and general partying in the city and in NUFC supporters clubs across the world since gaining promotion on Monday night ceased abruptly this morning when news began to filter through that the club had been raided. Officials from HM Revenue & Customs […]

  Hike4Hopey Sets Off From Ipswich

  While the result on the pitch will only have pleased one set of supporters, yesterday’s Sir Bobby Robson Day at Portman Road was something fans of Ipswich Town and Newcastle United could all celebrate.

Neither of these teams are pulling up any trees this season and are there for the taking. I know, I know – we’ve had some dodgy […]

  Were The Fans “Cheated” At Oxford?

  I went to Oxford on Saturday and wouldn’t be looking for a refund. I never have and never will. Probably cost me and the missus best part of £150 all in but there you go. Did I feel short changed? Yes I did. Not just in the team selection, but also in the manner some of our players went about it. We had wide players who couldn’t cross a ball, either from open play or dead balls. Shocking lack of ability. Even if they had […]
