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 [...]
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 [...]
We all know that people have their favourites, and I’m not having a dig at people for having them because we all do it. For example, Toonsy hated Ryan Taylor, I’m not a fan of Gutierrez, some people love Ben Arfa, some don’t like Best, it’s just one of them [...]
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 [...]
Now I know the January window only closed last month but as you can probably guess by now, I like talking about transfers. Only a few months ago I was thinking to myself that we don’t need to do a lot this summer with our team pretty much set, but [...]

Much has been covered over the past week or so of the arrival of Papiss Demba Cisse, the Senegalese front man being a superb coup for Newcastle United in a stage in their maturation where it didn’t look like signings like that were any longer possible. And, there is no [...]
That moment at a restaurant when you’ve just had the most unbelievable main course, a meal that has cost you a mere smidgen of some of the overpriced fancy rubbish you’ve been catered with in the past. Then, upon the realisation of a small hole still to be filled, the [...]
Newcastle took sixth spot in the Premier League this afternoon courtesy of a rather shaky 1-0 victory over Queens Park Rangers at St James’ Park. A piece of clever footwork proved the difference as Leon Best scored what was to be the winner in the first half, but beyond that [...]
With our paper-thin squad now just crossing the season half-way mark and our two talismen leaving for their respective international duties, NUFC’s starting XI is starting to need a little re-moulding. Who will be given the mantle up front? Is Danny Guthrie really the man to replace Cheik Tiote? Will [...]
