  Brilliant Result – But Are Newcastle United Having Problems Emulating Last Season?

  AC Milan 0 Newcastle United 0 We got a point, and before the game that would have been a great result, after the game and having seen how little threat we provided and how we rode our luck, it’s an amazing result. Like everything so far this season, Villa game aside, I haven’t enjoyed watching us play. I was trying to put my finger on during the match, and maybe it’s because last season there were no expectations, we just rode the crest of a […]

  Newcastle United Performances Are A Worry

  Hindsight is great, but you look back at our recent transfer window now and it raises some major questions. 35-40 million on Livramento, reserve right back. 35-40 million on Barnes, reserve left winger, meanwhile we have Almiron on the right wing, who consistently fails to deliver and desperately needed upgrading, and a central defence that is in genuine turmoil if we get one injury. We are not Man City, we can’t drop 80 million on 2 backup players, we are still very much in the […]

  Top Four Toon at Tottenham: Reaction

  What a massive 3 points! You look at how Spurs have played this season and before the game. I looked at it and thought a point would be a good result, but deep down I thought we were capable of beating them. And to go and actually do it is massive. Laughable to listen to the media coverage after the game, talking about the injuries to key Spurs players. Not one mention of Allan St-Maximin, Alexander Isak and Jonjo Shelvey (only just back). All 3 […]

  The Tottenham Inquest

  There is still clearly a huge amount of fragility in the Newcastle United squad. Tripper brought a calmness to the team which Burn took over when Trippier got injured. But Burn at Tottenham was abysmal and no one else stepped up in that 2nd half to calm everyone down and get a grip on the game, so it was just a return to the dark days of a team without a leader or a plan, or anyone to get hold of the game when it […]

  Why Are Manchester United Judged Differently To Newcastle United?

  So this debacle at Man Utd, the uproar around a team that looks devoid of direction, a team looking like they haven’t been coached. Ex-professionals like Graham Souness saying that at the very least Ole Solskjær needs to bring in some new coaches as whatever they are doing isn’t working. Jamie Carragher saying Ole isn’t the man for the job. This is a team that would have gone 4th with a win against Liverpool. Meanwhile, there’s Newcastle United – 7 wins in 39 games in […]

  This Newcastle United Mess Requires Urgent Action

  Author: Ghostfacekillah For a long time it felt like the club was almost intentionally aiming to self-destruct. Ashley was hands-on, appointing the wrong people here, there and everywhere, wanting to run the club like he would one of his retail outlets. That was bad enough, and it took us down a division on two separate occasions. This current crisis though feels like something new. He apparently has no interest in the club, he desperately wants to sell it, he has exhausted all managerial options with […]

  United 0 Chelsea 2: Shot-Shy Newcastle Clueless Again

  I don’t know if any of you stayed with BT Sport to watch the after match analysis? I usually don’t, even if we win I have no interest. But I did today, as Jake Humphrey is always flying the flag for us as fans. I am paraphrasing, and maybe changing the odd word, but the gist of it was that when you stand inside the ground and watch the rubbish we served up today, you can totally understand why the fans are kicking off like […]
