I think Sunderland signing Martin O'Neill as their new manager is one of the most significant
events to happen in the North-East recently. Of course there is massive rivalry between Newcastle
and Sunderland, so it takes a lot for a Newcastle fan to say something like that. But rivalry and
competition manifest themselves in every [.
When you look at Newcastle United's great start to the Premier League campaign, it certainly isn't
due to some great tactical masterstroke. We have been playing the same old 4-4-2 with lots of
endeavour down the flanks and a pretty high pace, much like many other Premiership teams. However,
one of the things which has [.
I swore to myself I wouldn't get involved and would stay away from this fight as Ashley has got the
fans at each other throats with the current state of affairs at SJP but after reading a recent
'blog by my colleague on here, and the fairly large response to it, I couldn't hold my [...]
It's here... 12.00 pm on Saturday sees the 145th Tyne Wear derby take place, as Newcastle United
visit the dark place to take on Steve Bruce's Sunderland. Due to police advise, the game will take
place at noon and there is no scheduled live broadcast of the match. If you're not braving the
journey [.
Steve Bruce has apologised to Steve Harper for the attack he had to suffer from a mackem fan after
Newcastle's 1-1 draw with Sunderland yesterday. Apparently the delinquent thug got onto the pitch
after the game and had a pop at Steve Harper. It's baffling as to quite why the thug was so upset
because [.
As Newcastle United got the game underway, accompanied by a chorus of boos from the bitter
residents of the more underdeveloped side of the North East, I have to admit that I had some slight
trepidation about this game. The Mackems were deperate for revenge after their comprehensive 5-1
humiliation at St James's Park, and [.
Newcastle United manager, Alan Pardew agrees with the interview that Newcastle United were "robbed"
by Asamoah Gyan's last gasp equaliser, and that Newcastle "switched off" for the goal. Steve Bruce
rightly acknowledges Newcastle's superior experience, but says that he wants Sunderland to finish
above Newcastle.
Good morning Toonsters. It's a biggie today as Newcastle look to try and do the double over the
Wearsiders. With both Sunderland and Newcastle having been unceremoniously dumped out of the FA Cup
by lower league opposition and with just 5 points and 3 places separating the teams in the Premier
League, both teams start [.
Newcastle's midfield star has been indulging in a spot of gratuitious trumpet blowing and who can
blame him after his excellent performances for the team this season? In an interview with Sky
Sports, Joey Barton said: "I think I am a better player now than when I signed. "I don't think it
is for me [.
As we all know it's derby awayday on Sunday, and the lucky few of you that have tickets for the
game will be able to take in the sights of the beautiful city of Sunderland before making your way
through the discarded prams and Ford Capri's on bricks, being careful not to tread on anything
