So we know we’ll be in the Europa League next season, but how far can we go in that particular competition? Much of that will depend on what happens over the summer, but it’s not exactly a new experience, either for us or for the players. It may have been [...]
This time of year is usually pretty hot for awards being dished out to players and managers for various achievements they’ve managed throughout the season. We’ve already had Signing of the Season and Goal of the Season, although admittedly that was before Papiss Cisse rewrote the book of Physics with [...]
Cheik Tiote has moved to distance himself away from a move away from St James’ Park by declaring that he can achieve everything he wants to achieve here at Newcastle United. Tiote has been the subject of intense transfer speculation for the last 18 months or so, yet the Ivory [...]
Newcastle United have been handed a timely boost as the Premier League campaign enters the final straight. The boost I’m referring to is a return to fitness for Cheik Tiote, Leon Best and Sylvain Marveaux. While Best and Marveaux have been out for a long time, both have started full [...]
Cheik Tiote has issued a rallying call to his Newcastle United team-mates and has urged them to build on a run of three wins in a row as they aim for Europe. Tiote returned to the starting line up against Liverpool at the weekend and put in a great performance [...]

You have to consider that the core of this team has played [...]
Last Saturday saw me return to St James’ Park to witness Newcastle take on Wolves. I couldn’t have wished for a better start, 6 minutes into the game Papiss Cisse scored a wonderful goal that sent the stadium into raptures of noise. The lead was doubled on 18 minutes when [...]

The further question of, ‘why and how often does this happen’ led NUFC_Stats to take a deeper glance [...]
