Jonas Gutierrez has become the latest NUFC player to laud what has been a fantastic season for the club. With an outside chance of finishing as high as third it’s safe to say that this season has been a resounding success whatever happens. Many people tipped us to struggle after [...]
Firstly, I want to apologise for my long absence. I have been very busy with this being my final year before I head off to University in September. Don’t worry, I still plan to write for this wonderful blog whilst I’m there as I have gained valuable experience writing on [...]
In our brilliant performance against West Brom at the weekend, we seen a new formation used by us. I want to ask the question, is 4-3-3 the way forward? Now I was at the game myself and when the team got announced I just assumed it would be the standard [...]
“He’s an exciting player and I’m sure our fans will enjoy watching him!” That was the verdict of Kevin Keegan on signing Jonas Gutierrez for Newcastle from Real Mallorca back in July 2008. And, it’s fair to say, the Argentine hasn’t disappointed. He possesses amazing skill and has that drive [...]

That uninspiring, innovation-lacking second half on Saturday at home to Wolves left a string of NUFC fans scratching their heads at the team’s ability to punish ‘lesser’ opposition and finish them off. The further question of, ‘why and how often does this happen’ led NUFC_Stats to take a deeper glance [...]
WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT! A first half that promised so much against Wolves on Saturday, was shortly followed by a frustrating and lacklustre effort to sit on the lead. Newcastle proved yet again that they just do not possess the ability & power to see off teams, even at home. Wolves [...]
