Demba Cisse the most expensive player in the January transfer and the other half of the Senegalese strike force alongside Demba Ba, provided an instant impact as he scored a majestic goal on his debut. Majestic.

Ba and Cisse were away on ACN duty and how they were missed, especially Ba, who gave Newcastle the lead in the 30th minute for his 16th Premiership goal.

Good afternoon Geordies and welcome to our latest match banter feature. This one sees the Magpies hosting the team who have been recently renamed, from "Blackburn Rovers" to "Troubled Blackburn Rovers" because of their trials and tribulations in the relegation zone, and also the rather unfortunate behaviour of some of their fans towards manager Steve [.

Good evening Geordies and welcome to our latest match banter feature, which sees the Magpies hosting the team who have almost certainly been our fiercest foes in the Premiership down the years. I am of course referring to Manchester United. This match will be all the more difficult for the Mags too as Manchester United [.

Bolton Wnaderers 0 2 Newcastle United (Hatem Ben Arfa (69), Demba Ba (71) Newcastle United were in their all black strip for this game, and enjoyed the backing of 4,000 travelling Geordies who pretty much took over the ground at least in terms of noise! As a result of the Toon Army being [...]

Alan Pardew is certainly looking forward to the Chelsea game on Saturday. Steven Taylor in action at Old Trafford This morning Alan said he didn't think Chelsea would be looking forward too much to playing in front of a sell-out St. James' Park, where 52,000 mad screaming Geordies will be roaring on their side.

"How did Manchester United not win this game?" is the question on everyone's lips after an amazing 1-1 draw at Old Trafford between the Red Devils and the Geordies from Tyneside. United created tons of chances, with everything from a great goalkeeper and posts, to miraculous goal-line clearances keeping them at bay.

By Chris Wright

With Manchester United one up through Chicharito (or rather Chicharito's stomach/thigh), a pretty naff penalty call from the assistant referee saw Newcastle nick a point at Old Trafford this afternoon.

Referee Mike Jones quite rightly gave a corner when Rio Ferdinand's clean-as-you-like block challenge saw Hatem Ben Arfa's cross squirt out of touch, only for Jones' assistant to overrule the decision because the shimmering fairies dancing around his head told him to.

Venue: Old Trafford, Manchester. Date: Saturday 26 November, 2011 Kick-off: 3.00pm. Referee: Mike Jones (replaces Phil Dowd). Good afternoon Geordies and welcome to our regular "match banter" feature for this afternoon's game, which sees the Magpies facing another tough game in Manchester, this time against the United lot.

Tomorrow I get to see my two favourite clubs play at Old Trafford, Manchester United and Newcastle United. After losing their unbeaten record last weekend at Manchester City, it looks more than likely that the Geordies will double their loss tally for the season on their return to Manchester... During the next 3 fixtures the [.

Good evening Geordies, and welcome to out regular "match banter" feature for the Magpies' away trip to the Brittania Studium in Stoke. This should be a tricky trip to the Potteries, with no quarter given and no prisoners taken. Indeed, Newcastle have yet to beat Stoke in the Premiership in four previous attempts, and if [.

THFC1882 present Gareth Johnson's reflections on Spurs draw at Newcastle:

They say time is a healer, hence me writing this review having had a small period of reflection. We nearly had them. It was nearly the perfect victory. It nearly made me smug. It just about devastated me.

Why I'm predicting a Kevin Keegan-style high-scoring win for the Toon against Tottenham

Just what is happening at St James' Park these days? Something's gone horribly wrong: Newcastle United's defence has only conceded four goals in seven matches and is the meanest in the Premier League.

Newcastle v Tottenham: Champions League Qualification A Step Too Far? - originally posted on Soccerlens.com

Tottenham Hotspur travel to Newcastle United as the race for fourth spot in the Premier League heats up. The Magpies have enjoyed a promising start to the season and sit proudly where the London club is desperate to be.

The Geordies are back at Villa Park for what is a battle between two unbeaten sides, albeit after just four games. Alan Pardew's side managed to hold Arsenal to a goalless draw in their opening game, took a credible three points at Sunderland and the same again against Fulham at St. James'.

Newcastle have lost this fixture for the last three seasons and have only managed to leave Villa Park with all three points twice in the last ten years.

Venue: Villa Park, Birmingham Kick off: Saturday, 17th Sept, 3pm Referee: Neil Swarbrick Good afternoon Geordies and welcome to the match banter post for Newcastle United's visit to Villa Park to take on Aston Villa. Although the Magpies are flying high at fourth in the Premiership, with their best start in 15 years, manager, Alan [.

Who would have thought that Swansea at home this Saturday would be such a pivotal game in the Arsenal's Premier League campaign? Not this subscriber, that's for sure. You see, I saw the season thus far panning out like this; Geordies away, three points, nae messin', man.

Bin-dippers at home?

There's no doubt about it. Today is the biggest day of the Premier League season so far with four matches, two of which can be considered huge. Newcastle against Fulham kicks things off at 8am. The Geordies will be hoping that their team can move on...

Newcastle United ended their tour of the United States with a game against MLS Team Columbus Crew. I had the pleasure of traveling to Columbus this week and was pleased to say that the Toon Army was well represented there were black and white shirts everywhere!

Columbus started off really well and were knocking it around well for the first few minutes of the game.

Taylor-made for the Toon Former Newcastle United chairman Sir John Hall made building a "team of 11 Geordies" his manifesto during his reign at St James' Park. Now owner Sir Mike Ashley is following a similar dream: building a team of Taylors. The Magpies have reportedly launched a bid to sign Swansea left-back Neil Taylor, [.

Pardew says something or other about Barton's contract and Newcastle United transfers in general. Top of the morning Geordies. After all the excitement of transfer rumours to keep us amused over the last week or so, absolutely nothing is happening on the news front today. In fact, so bereft of Newcastle news are we today [.

The new Newcastle home shirt for the 2011/12 Premier League season is released on 19th May as the Geordies look forward to another season in England's top flight following their shock relegation to the Championship for the 2009-10 season. As the club reflect on what has been a successful and relatively comfortable first season back in the Premiership, the release so early of the new kit shows there really is no time to waste in planning for next season.

There's no room for sentiment in football. Dalglish, the cold-eyed realist, left Liverpool's £35m Geordie on the bench against his old side, keeping faith with the surprise hat-trick hero.

As I was watching Spurs play Real Madrid, the missus wandered in the room and sat down. She knows little about football and could care less about it. But like all Geordies, she knows the basics having been weaned on Newcastle United's bitter tears...

Good afternoon Geordies and welcome to the match banter post for Newcastle United's visit to Ewood Park to take on Blackburn Rovers. Blackburn have won the last 6 encounters between the two teams, so we'll be looking to break our dismal record against the Lancashire team. We've only scored more than once in one of [.

News this morning that the Newcastle allocation for Saturday's game at Blackburn has now been sold out well that's hardly a surprise after the Newcastle heroics against Arsenal. This is Newcastle United Passion So it looks like there will be 5,000 screaming mad Geordies at the Darwen End, for Saturday's very important game with [.

The Referee, as well as Arsenal's Tomas Rosicky, are under suspicion.

Breaking: France State TV is reporting that Interpol, the International Police Agency, are investigating the Arsenal/Newcastle draw from the weekend, centering in on odd betting patterns. The alleged investigation includes Arsenal winger Tomas Rosicky, whose foul was allegedly the cause of the second Newcastle penalty.

Andy Who? Focus on Pardew and NUFC!

Monday was a bad day for the Geordies, it was like finding out the girl you're deeply in love with has ran away into the arms of another man and never truly loved you anyway. It would be impossible to sum up a collective reaction of the Toon Army to the news, as people seemed more confused (not unusual for Newcastle fans under Ashley) than anything else.

After what has felt like one of the most boring transfer windows in recent times, the last few hours have finally managed to stir some excitement among the rumour-hungry football fan contingent, while instilling a bitter taste in stomachs for others.

Throughout January, one of the big transfer stories circulating the Sky Sports/Sun/Talksport rumour mill has been Andy Carroll and Harry Redknapp's supposed adoration.

With Chelsea's reported move for a more experienced Centre Half to finally replace Ricardo Carvalho, it seems that the club is looking to allow the most promising youngsters to continue to learn their trade playing at the highest level in a move that I personally agree with. In light of the moves for new players, it's being reported here that Newcastle are seeking a loan agreement for Jeffrey Bruma.

Buried in the annals of history at Newcastle United are the horror images of FA Cup nightmares at the hands of Hereford United and Birmingham City, both shocking enough defeats to curdle the blood of the most fanatical Geordie fan. Today, Stevenage United of League Two, a massive 73 positions below their illustrious Premier League opponents, added their own page to the history books in Geordieland with a thoroughly deserved 3-1 win in the FA Cup 3rd Round.

"Dalglish told me that we're the ones who make people's dreams come true. The fans can't play, so they live their dreams through us." - Fernando Torres
Dalglish in, Hodgson out. Finally. It's been a long, long wait.
It goes without saying, but from here on out, I'm done on the Hodgson vitriol.

We woke up today to learn that Kenny Dalglish has replaced Roy Hodgson as Liverpool manager. As far as United are concerned, this could be a disaster.

How often do we see clubs galvanised in the first game since the manager was sacked, particularly when their first game is one they would never be expected to win.
