Every body now


Stoke proved to be a tough match for Newcastle on Saturday but a goal from local lad carrol got us a well earned point at the Britannia stadium.
I questioned Shearer's choice of strikers at the begining of this match as Ameobi started the game and he proved to be a big disappointment once again by failing to defend corners, his man lost him once before the goal came.
The actual goal was again Ameobi getting lost and ball watching while ex mag put the ball in the back of the net. I would have hauled the lad off at half time and threw Andy Carrol on. In the 68th min that's what happened and we ended the day with another local hero.
Can we go to Whiter hart lane on Sunday and expect a performance like last year and the year before? We all surely hope so, as both games proved to be two of the best games I've been to over the last few years. Harry has turned the fortunes of his spurs side since taking over and a win for them will put them into the comfort of mid table survival ready for another long hard slog for next season. We now need to pick up points at places we are not expected to before our three home games against Pompey, Fulham and the Smoggies. The question is can we do it?
Well Liverpool are not going to give up anything as they pursue the league title so our only hope is this game its going to put immense pressure on the lads on and off the pitch but we must all stay strong and positive.
If we believe we can stay up we can and will but if we feel we have no hope then why bother trying, ask yourself do you want to see Newcastle United in the premier league next season.
If yes then give everything especially if your going to the game.
Back at st Jame's we must create an atmosphere like stoke we have one of the largest stadium's in the country but consistently we are not as loud as stoke fans. We are supposed to be the best fans in the country well out of 53,000 people only a fraction are passionate enough to sing and really get behind the team and create an difficult place for opposing players to ply there trade.

Ashley Out




After the defeat to Bolton on Saturday, we are really in the shit. After all these years why is Shola Ameobi still playing for Newcastle United? If anyone can answer this please tell me. He tries his best but unfortunately it’s just not good enough. We had Smith on the bench itching to get on, Viduka as well, but what I would like to see is one of the young lads given a chance. How many has Shola had and how many more will he get?
Relegation is now in sight. We have difficult games to play and no manager. Mike Ashley continues at the helm of Newcastle United but for how long?
If we go down will Ashley sell up? If we stay up will he spend? Will he get a new manager or will he only spend £5m like the MD says?.
After last season I thought it could not get worse but Kevin Keegan took charge and things started to look good. A 1-1 draw at Old Trafford kicked off the season and was a good result but we now face Manchester United at home with only 11 games to go and it’s very worrying, - it could be very embarrassing.
After the Man Utd we have home games against Arsenal, Chelsea, Pompey, Borough and Fulham: 3 of the top five and two clubs fighting relegation. The away fixtures are at Hull, Stoke , Spurs, Liverpool and Villa - yes, two top four teams and the rest fighting the drop .We need a manager and quick because the two in charge now don’t look like keeping us up. Someone has to go down and I really hope it’s

Game on this afternoon

Vital game today, away at the Reebok Stadium. Let's hope Andy Carroll gets to start ahead of Ameobi. Another away victory today would be very good timing, just before playing the Mancs next Wednesday.
