May 20, 2009

It’s like climbing the proverbial Mount Everest or Mount Kilimanjaro. Newcastle United have to go to Aston Villa on Sunday knowing that they have to get a result – no questions asked.

May 15, 2009

But what a three points it would be if we could put one over on the posh cockneys. Fulham aren’t the best travellers so the onus will be on Newcastle to get at ‘em from the first whistle to the last. Jose Enrique is a confirmed absentee and Alan smith will face a late fitness [...]

Goal from Gateshead Rescues Newcastle United

April 11, 2009

A game that was not so much about the football played but the result at the end of the game – The Toon started off with an unorthodox 3-5-2 formation with Ryan Taylor and Damien Duff getting up and down the flank.

Help Us El Tel!

March 24, 2009

Word has it that senior players at Newcastle United no longer think that Chris Hughton and Colin Calderwood are capable enough of saving The Toon from relegation. Well no kidding!

The Toon 1 – Liverpool 5

December 28, 2008

Earlier this year Kevin Keegan said that Newcastle United were “a million miles away” from challenging the top four of the Barclays Premier League. How right he was – hopefully those words are now ringing in Mike Ashley’s ears with a large amount of gusto. Liverpool outplayed and outclassed the Toon in every department today. [...]
