The Daily Express prints today speculation that Mike Ashley bought Newcastle United outright so he can test the waters as a Premiership Mogul. His real intention is [...]

Michael Owen and Alan Smith Flop For England
Thursday, August 23rd, 2007With a international friendly match sandwiched between the start of the Premeir League it came to no real surprise that England lost again to the Germans.

Crazy Talk on Takeovers
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007It seems that everyone is talking takeovers these days but when it comes to Newcastle it certainly goes to extremes. Multi millionaire owner, Mike Ashley took over the club three months ago and revamped the boardroom. Now rumours are abound that another takeover is in the pipeline with connections to none-other than Mr Shearer himself. I can’t see Ashley [...]
Newcastle v Aston Villa 0-0
Sunday, August 19th, 2007On reading some of the morning’s newspapers, you get the feeling that sports journalists were already writing off Newcastle’s chances. Whilst us fans know better having won just one match, our situation at Newcastle is far more complicated than just a new manager and new owner coming in. What journalists wrote this morning was as [...]

Thursday, August 16th, 2007Newcastle have finally off-loaded Kieron Dyer in a deal reportedly worth around £6. After an initial deal turned sour and created a lot of bad blood between us and West Ham, Dyer must be relieved to finally move down South to solve some personal issues.
