The current Newcastle squad is probably just good enough to get out of the Championship, but without further investment, it's looking bleak for our future Premier League survival.

The people linked with Newcastle United are either perpetually stupid or completely inept.

Barry Moat has finally broken his silence regarding the Newcastle United takeover and his failure to buy the club. In comments released yesterday Moat admitted that he too would consider selling the naming rights for St.

Toon Army look to buy their club back from Obese and Odious Owner.

Newcastle United Supporters' Trust have formally launched plans to raise funds to buy the club from owner Mike Ashley.
The 'Yes We Can' campaign hopes to draw on support from fans, business and financial institutions with a view to taking ownership of the club.

As voices of discontent gathered at the back of the Milburn stand before the game, they were equally as vociferous in their support for their team once they got inside the ground. The second largest attendance of the day (43,067) certainly made their feelings known.

The Newcastle fans had something to shout about other than the owner as Jonas Gutierrez ran from the halfway, and finished with a shot that went past 'Keeper Joe Lewis.

This weekend could be the most important weekend of Chelsea's season and they may be looking back fondly in May when they are lifting the Premiership trophy.

Chris Hughton has been named as the permanent manager of Newcastle, while the Magpies have also been taken off the market.

Dull. Uninspiring. Inept.

All words than can some up tonight's performance. It's really gone beyond who scored for / against us anymore. It's now down to attitude and application. Sadly for Newcastle United fans, both our coaching staff and players are completely incapable of showing either.

Mike Ashley, yesterday, looking as Obese and Odious as ever.

Newcastle owner Mike Ashley is understood to have reduced his asking price for the club by a further £20million to £80million.

Nottingham Forest put a dent in our title ambitions as what appeared to be a very unmotivated Newcastle side struggled early on.

Forest had the best of the first half and were unfortunate to only go in to the half-time break with a one goal lead. Newcastle were guilty of:

• Giving away possession (Are you listening Marlon Harewood?

A Dexter Blackstock goal on the stroke of half time gave Nottingham Forest all three points against Newcastle United.

It certainly feels like a long time since we last had something to write about. No progress on the takeover and no Championship games has meant it's been a pretty boring two weeks. Fear not though, the real football is back!

Newcastle's caretaker boss Chris Hughton has some decisions to make regarding the fitness of certain players and their inclusion in the squad for tomorrow depends on their passing a fitness test today.

Our much improved Spanish left-back Jose Enrique has spoken today of how Newcastle United have yet to hit top gear.

Newcastle United go into the international break three points clear at the top of the Coca Cola Championship. That lead however could, and should, have been extended to six points today.

Bristol City goalkeeper Dean Gerken had an absolute blinder and had one of his upright's to thank after Marlon Harewood shot against the post in the opening stages.

Newcastle take on Bristol City this weekend looking to extend their lead at the top of the Coca Cola Championship. City, who have not won an away game all season are in confident mood after recently defeating Blackpool (Newcastle's only league loss of the season).

A name that may be familiar to some long term Toon fans is that of Bradley Orr.

The ongoing saga between Kevin Keegan and Newcastle United reached a conclusion today with the 'winner' being Kevin Keegan. It was decided that the former Newcastle boss was constructively dismissed. In other words, the club owe Mr Keegan two million quid.

However, what's more revealing and possible a damning incitement at just how much of a shambles the club is, was revealed by Keegan's statement after the panel's verdict.

Thanks to a late goal from new loan signing Marlon Harewood, Newcastle United managed to avoid defeat, and with it, go three points clear at the top of the Championship.

It wasn't all plain sailing though and QPR proved they were no pushovers. They went in front on the 7th minute after a mistake from Jose Enrique allowed Ben Watson to slide the ball past Steve Harper.

Newcastle take on QPR tonight at St James's Park and a win will take us five points clear at the top of the Championship.

The Toon welcome back Jonas Gutierrez from a hamstring injury and Danny Guthrie from suspension. Coloccini is ruled out with an injury, while Ryan Taylor and Danny Simpson are both last minute decisions.

This was always billed as a nostalgic game between two of Bobby Robson's former clubs. Ipswich's North Stand today was renamed the Sir Bobby Robson Stand and how they could have done with the former England manager's know-how.

Kevin Nolan, in arguably his best game for Newcastle, managed to grab a hat-trick, and Ryan Taylor added his name to the scoresheet with a cracking free-kick, we've been waiting for one of those for ages.

This was a special day as both sides got to commemorate the late great Sir Bobby Robson as the two sides he held so dear to his heart played against each other. A Kevin Nolan hat-trick and a goal from Ryan Taylor left Roy Keane reeling.

Peter Crouch

Already shown what he is capable of in his short cameo spells on the pitch, most effectively last weekend against Birmingham. Sure to be a good partner for Jermain Defoe but can't quite annexe Robbie Keane from the winning side just yet.

Talented Dane on his way back to St James' Park.

Sky Sports is saying Peter rejected two previous offers from Newcastle, because he was not too happy with, but finally signed the Dane. We assume the deal he has now is not as good as the 6 months deal he had earlier this year – but that is hardly surprising.

He always reminded of a Dolphin, not sure why?

Skysports.com understands Hull City and Newcastle United are rivals to sign Aston Villa striker Marlon Harewood on loan.

Hull are desperate for attacking options and spent the summer attempting to secure reinforcements to avoid a repeat of last season's Premier League relegation battle.
