Much has been made of the fact that this will be Steve Harper’s last game for Newcastle United and as luck would have it, he will get his chance to make his 199th appearance for the club in front of the home fans with Newcastle United now safe from any threats of relegation. Rightly so, […]

First and foremost let’s make this Sunday, Stevie Harper Day. The most loyal of loyal Newcastle players signs off after 20 years at Newcastle in what will be his last game.

Newcastle continue their campaign tomorrow with a trip to high-flying West Brom. The Baggies, who have been playing very well for most of the season, sit 8th in the table on 44 points, an excellent return for a club normally known for being in a more or less permanent relegation battle.

After defeating Fulham, we’ve found ourselves in a bit of a dilemma. We fought tirelessly vs the Londoners on Sunday but now we face arguably two very tough games that will define our season. Will it be the season where we nearly made it in the Europa League or the season where we horribly underperformed, […]
