So, to the home stretch of what has been an mightily successful season for Newcastle United. The Toon go into their remaining five fixtures looking to surpass the 60 point mark for just the 7th time in their Premier League history, four of them coming in their first four seasons [...]
For the first time this season, NUFC come off the back of 3 wins. 53 points amassed thus far, already 7 more than the whole of last season and eight other previous Premier League campaigns. Newcastle appear to be thriving on the fact that they have Europe in their sights [...]
