"Jossys Giants" visit Bobby Charlton and Willie McFaul at St James' Park 1985. Aye Bobby Charlton,
not Jackie Charlton who had left the club as manager in the huff over player sales and such before
McFaul stepped in and faced the same old problem. After introducing the Jossy's lads to McFaul the
ex Northern [.
Highlights of the game, not that there were any really for Newcastle United fans in what was a poor
day for the Magpies. I will update these with longer, better highlights and also the post match
interviews when they become availabke.
Venue: White Hart Lane. Date: Saturday 11th Feb, 2012. Kick-off: 5.30pm. Referee: Andre Marriner.
Good afternoon Geordies (or should that be good evening?) and welcome to our regular "match banter"
feature. Today of course we face Tottenham Hotspur away at White Hart Lane. If you read my match
preview you will see from the stats [.
Venue: White Hart Lane, Tottenham. Date: Saturday 11th Feb, 2012. Kick-off: 5.30pm. Referee: Andre
Marriner. It would be tempting to think that Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp had been distracted
by one or two other things this week whilst preparing his 'Spurs squad for this weeks game, but
that would probably be folly.
"Going Up" "Northern Life" special 1984. 30 minute Tyne Tees Television special programme from
1984, where David Burton reviews Newcastle United's 1983-4 promotion season. Featuring Arthur Cox,
Kevin Keegan, and some classic Keegan, Waddle and Beardsley goals from the days when the club had a
front three that I'm sure quite a few Toon [.
Venue: St James'Park, NE1. Date: 5th February 2012 Kick Off: 1.30pm Referee: Mark Halsey. Well, it
was another three points in the bag for the Magpies as they passed the supposedly "magical" 40
point mark, with no less than 14 games of the Premiership season to go. Apart from this though, the
most obvious salient [.

Venue: St James'Park, NE1. Date: 5th February 2012 Kick Off: 1.30pm Referee: Mark Halsey. Good
afternoon Geordies and welcome to our regular "match banter" feature for this afternoon's early
kick-off against Aston Villa at St James' Park. Despite being a fair sized Premiership team, unlike
Newcastle United they tend to pass under the radar of [.
It probably hasn't escaped your attention that Northumbria bizzies have been investigating what
have been described as "sickening" racist comments about Newcastle United forward, Shola Ameobi, on
Facebook. This comes after recent similar comments about his younger brother and teammate Sammy
Ameobi on Twitter.

Highlights of Newcastle United's 0-2 victory at Ewood Park, with the first being an own goal by
Blackburn's , with the Magpies' second coming from Gabriel Obertan after he picked up an excellent
pass into space by Peter Lovenkrands. I will update these with better / longer ones when they
become available, and also add [.
Venue: Ewood Park, Blackburn Date: 1st February 2012 Kick Off: 8.00pm Referee: Phil Dowd. Good
evening Geordies and welcome to our regular "match banter" feature. This evening sees us facing
Blackburn Rovers for the fourth time this season, with the record so far being two wins to one in
our favour, their one victory being [.
NUFC Blog January transfer window countdown. Watch the magic window and keep updated on all the
Newcastle United deadline drama. Ok, Here we go... Just a few hours to go before we learn of any in
and/or outs on the final day of this January's transfer window. As we've already signed Papiss
Demba Rodney Cisse [.
A report in yesterday's "People" newspaper contains pictures and an account of Newcastle United's
Tenerife trip last week, as Alan Pardew and his squad prepared for last Saturday's ill fated FA Cup
clash with Brighton. It contains a bawdy tale of late night binge drinking and €20 lap dancers as
Pardew and the players celebrated [.
Highlights of the game in what was ultimately a disappointing day at the seaside for the Magpies as
they crashed out of the FA Cup without scoring a goal. As usual, I will post better / longer
highlights, as well as post match interviews when they become available (and if you can bear it!).
A [...]
This afternoon sees Newcastle United cruising down to the UK's "LGBT" (Lesbian, Gay, Bi and
Transgendered) capital, Brighton. However I shall reftain from indulging in the practically
limitless opportunities for cheap, tacky innuendo about Poyet's men getting Newcastle United "round
the back" and giving them a good pounding and so on.
Of all the defensive targets (allegedly) pursued by Newcastle United, Ajax's 24 year old Belgian
defender and captain, Jan Vertonghen, is by far the most interesting proposition. At a potential
cost that will almost certainly be over £10 million along with the abilty to command a Coloccini
sized salary package he shpuld be really However [.
Pictures of the forthcoming 2012-13 season shirts have were released into the wild late yesterday
evening and here they are! Of course, you will notice that the shirts still bear the sponsor's name
of "Northern Rock" rather than the new "Virgin Money" as these shirts were mock ups made before the
latest sponsirship deal was [.
Speaking after Newcastle United's abject second half capitulation to Fulham in yesterday's game at
Craven Cottage, our Silver Supremo, Alan Pardew, looked for reasons for the collapse. "I can't
really explain what happened to our back four," he said continuing: "It wasn't a case of us not
trying second half, we just lacked mental discipline [.
Highlights of the game. I will update these with longer ones when they become available, along with
the post match interviews from Alan Pardew and Martin Jol. Post match interviews To follow.
Venue: Craven Cottage, London. Date:: Sat 21st Jan, 2011. Kick-Off: 3:00 pm. Referee: Lee Mason
(Lancs). Good afternoon Geordies and welcome to our regular "match banter" feature for today's away
visit to Craven Cottage, the home of "Cottagers" of Fulham. As usual, if you're looking for a
detailed look forward to the game, I would [.
"The BBC's governing principles, closely associated with its first Director-General, Sir John
Reith, are to educate, inform and entertain the whole nation, free from political interference and
commercial pressure. These ideals continue to underpin an enduring vision of the BBC as the
"national" broadcaster.
First of all dear reader, I would like to apologise. I meant to have this posted yesterday evening.
However, due to a certain bearded Newcastle United shirt sponsor, his chronically unreliable
Broadband and constantly engaged customer service (who's existence I am beginning to doubt), that
sadly wasn't possible in the end.
Papiss Demba Cisse and his current club Freiburg have now agreed a deal in principle for the player
to join Newcastle United for a fee of around £7.5 million according to Sky Sports' David Craig,
though the deal will be subject to a medical. The player was spotted at the club's Benton trainng
ground before [.
Late last week, various organs of the French media were confidently reporting that Olympique
Lyonnais left back, Aly Cissokho, was going to be in Toon earlier today for a medical, with Sky
Sports reporting in another story that: "Sky Sports now understands that although the Magpies did
have an interest in the player, they have [.
Highlights of the game. As usual I will keep my eyes peeled for longer / better ones and will post
them when they become available. Post match interviews Alan Pardew Mark Hughes
Venue: St James' Park, Toon. Date: Sun 15th Jan 2011. Kick-Off: 1:30 pm. Referee: Chris Foy. Hello,
good afternoon and welcome to our regular "match banter" feature. This time the Magpies will be
facing the transitional Queen's Park Rangers under new manager, Mark Hughes, he of the slightly
annoying mid-sentence sharp intakes of breath.
Several reports in the French media, including Lyon's "Le Progrès" this morning, have claimed that
Olympique Lyonnais and their left back, Aly Cissokho, have agreed a deal with Newcastle United, and
also that the player will be in Toon on Monday for a medical. There was nothing definitive on a
price, though OL are known [.
Once again the tabloid media have attempted to test our credulity, this time with the risible idea
that Liverpool would be willing to dispose of Andy Carroll for a fraction of the £35 million they
paid for him just one year ago, and to Newcastle United of all clubs. Firstly the figure of £20
million [.
In an interview with "Talk Sport" radio, their French correspondent, Philippe Auclaair, who claims
to know Demba Ba and his entourage well, tried to clarify comments made by Newcastle United hitman
Demba Ba in a recent interview with French sports radio RNC. In the interview he said he thought
that the player would stay at [.
After strongly suggesting that Newcastle United hitman Demba Ba was available on a release clause
of less than £7 million, Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has now changed his tune
somewhat. The droopy featured North London manager has now admitted that neither he nor anyone else
apart from Newcastle United and Ba himself know what [.
Oh dear. On the verge of Demba Ba's departure for the African Cup of Nations, Newcastle United
striker, Demba Ba gave an interview for French sports radio station, RMC. When asked by the station
if he could play for moneybags Paris St Germain, the Carlo Ancelotti managed Manchester City of
France's Ligue Un, our goalscorer [.
As most of you will probably know, Tottenham Hotspur manager, Droopy Dog Harry Redknapp, claimed in
an interview that there was a release clause in the contract of Demba Ba, with well known bastion
of truth, the Daily Mail, following up the droopy one's claims with a story that the figure named
in that clause [.
Highlights of the game. Sorry, they aren't very good I know but I thought I'd put them up just for
Ben Arfa's sublime goal, which must be the best I've seen all season, and also the return of
"Spidermag" too. I still haven't received any thanks from Alan Pardew for telling him he was a
[...]
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 [.
Highlights of a glorious game. Goals from Demba Ba (33), Yohan Cabaye (47) and finally, a great own
goal from Manchester United's Phil Jones in the final minute of normal time. As usual, I shall try
to update these with longer / better ones if / when they become available. Hugh's NUFC Blog match
report [.
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 [.
Highlights of the game: First came an own goal by Agger for Newcastle, which looked more like a
Cabaye goal really. Then however Liverpool struck back with three goals, the first two goals from
ex Newcastle United striker Craig Bellamy, and finally, a goal off the bench from substitute Steven
Gerrard.
Venue: Anfield Stadium, Liverpool. Date: Friday, 30th January, 2011. Kick-Off: 7:45pm. Referee: Lee
Probert. Hello, good evening and welcome to our regular match banter for this evening's game, which
sees the Magpies travelling to Anfield once again to meet Liverpool in a battle for sixth place.
For a more in depth look forward to the [.
