Hutchinson content with stalemate at the Etihad
View attachment 240952Cheik puts on impressive display as Toon earn credible drawView attachment 240953
Newcastle United put on an impressive display at the Etihad which was a landmark for the Magpies as Hutchinson has led them to 50 games unbeaten, another indication of the magic that Hutchinson has worked on Tyneside in his 2 and a half year reign over his childhhod club. The Toon walked away from Manchester perhaps performing the stronger as they were controlled against City, they looked more threatening going forward and perhaps the main difference in the teams was a hunger that Newcastle had City seemed to lack. The star perfomer was Newcastle's Senegalese left-back Cheik M'Bengue as he worked tirelessly for the full 90 minutes. The Toon's £8m man contributed effectively to every attack and defensive move.
Man of the Match - Cheik M'Bengue

Newcastle walked into SJP knowing they were firm favourites against a struggling Blackburn side so they had some very expectant fans and they gave them exactly what they were hoping for. Newcastle wasted no time in taking a hold of the match as Adam Johnson was played in down the left before playing a deadly ball in which the lethal Papiss Demba Cisse slid onto, putting it in the net. It was the deadly Adam Johnson again who sped down the left and then drilled a left-footed cross in which Junior Hoilett spectacularly nodded in powerfully in the 12th minute. Cisse then added his second and Newcastle's third in the 26th minute after Christian Eriksen found his run and cleverly played it through for Cisse who only had to place in the net. The Toons next goal didnt come till the 65th minute in which an over-hit Yohan Cabaye corner was headed back across goal by Taylor and Jores Okore made a neat round to nod it home. It was Taylor himself who wrapped up the win in the 82nd minute as he headed home a Cabaye corner.

Hawthorns shaken by Toon ferocity
View attachment 241004Adam Johnson continues to impress after his £5m Summer moveView attachment 241005Tyler Hutchinson's Newcastle United put on a very spirited display at the Hawthorns which is certainly not the easiest place to go, especially this season. The first goal came in the 11th minute, pretty late in Newcastle's terms, as young Slovakian winger Vladimir Weiss found space on the right wing before knocking the ball to find Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who's finishing ability can never be doubted. Newcastle's lead was doubled in the 20th minute as playmaker Yohan Cabaye played the ball to Adam Johnson out on the left whom failed with his first shot but made no mistake with the second. The Magpies wrapped up their win just 8 minutes later as Danny Welbeck grabbed his first goal for Newcastle after being played through by fellow new man Mohamed Diame. There have been rumours that Danny has had trouble settling in and that the pressure of living up to NUFC legend Demba Ba has got to him, he looked delighted after scoring today.

Mike Ashley has placed a transfer embargo on Newcastle United after accepting a bid from local businessman Shaun Hutchings to buy the famous Tyneside club. It is rumoured that Hutchings will look to appoint David Moyes as manager if appointed as he believes Moyes is a bigger attraction and will put NUFC at the top of world football for many years to come.

Newcastle faced Fulham today at St James' Park hoping to continue their search for the top spot. However, things did not get off to a bright start for the Magpies as ex-Toon target Bryan Ruiz put Fulham ahead in the 2nd minute after the ball was pulled back for the Costa Rican before striking it past Krul. The Geordie's only had to wait 3 minutes for Newcastle to react though as Hatem Ben Arfa struck in the 5th minute after M'Bengue crossed the ball in which was nodded down for Ben Arfa who hit it with the outside of his foot. Steven Taylor grabbed yet another goal from a corner in the 31st minute after Gylfi Sigurdsson knocked it in. Finally, Toon English striking starlet Danny Welbeck scored for the second game in a row in the 36th minute after he converted an Adam Johnson through-ball to score from a tight angle.

Toon overcome couragious Millwall
View attachment 241894Tiote scores first goal since working under HutchinsonView attachment 241895

Millwall gave Newcastle United a very tough game at The Den this afternoon and could quite of easily walked away with the points. However, it was the ever impressive and reliable Newcastle who walked away from London with all 3 points after they remained resiliant and kept plucking away even though Millwall took absolutely everything the Magpies threw at them. After Newcastle United spent the first 45 minutes throwing the kitchen sink at Millwall and it wasnt until the 55th minute that the deadlock was broken and it came through a Newcastle corner which Adam Johnson swung in before it found the head of Cheick Tiote to score his first goal since 'that goal' against Arsenal back in 2011.

Toon thrash Birmingham at St James' Park
View attachment 242083Cisse wraps up scoring with 51st goal in 65 games for NewcastleView attachment 242081
Newcastle United named a very strong and very attacking line-up against Birmingham today which brought them all 3 points as they continue their hunt for top spot. However, things did not start well for the Toon as Birmingham's Kamel Ghilas slid the ball through to Kevin Doyle who rounded Krul and smashed the ball home. Newcastle picked themselves up straight away and equalised just 5 minutes later through Gylfi Sigurdsson as Aubameyang had his shot saved, then Cisse's was saved from the rebound and the rebound of that save was finally turned in by Sigurdsson who grabbed his first goal of the season after several niggles have hindered the start to his campaign. Gabonese hitman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang put Newcastle ahead in the 63rd minute after Adam Johnson skipped past the full-back to get his shot away which hit the far post, fortunately Pierre was there ready to pounce. The Magpies wrapped the win up in the 71st minute after Cheick Tiote played a lovely lob to Papiss Demba Cisse who ran on to score from a fairly tough angle.

Newcastle United travelled to Anfield in high spirits with the odds stacked firmly against the Reds but they head back to Tyneside heavily humbled by Liverpool who left Newcastle's invincibility in tatters. Luis Suarez put Liverpool ahead in the 16th minute after recieving the ball from Kuyt and then taking the ball into the box before slotting into the far corner. Suarez then doubled the Reds' lead in the 39th minute from a wonderful lob over Tim Krul, things got harder for Newcastle as Samuel Inkoom was sent off in the 55th minute. A Steven Taylor own goal made it 3 for Liverpool in the 65th minute, just before Joe Cole added the fourth four minutes later. Newcastle got a consilation goal in the 78th minute through Papiss Demba Cisse but they have a big task on their hands to move on from this defeat.

Newcastle United walked out onto the pitch at St James' Park knowing nothing less than a win would do for the fans after being hammered by Liverpool last time out and they duly delivered against their fearce rivals. After dominating the opening exchanges Newcastle won a penalty in the 24th minute which Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang tucked away to score his 5th goal in 9 games for this campaign. The next goal didnt come till the 68th minute when Adam Johnson sped down the wing before squaring the ball to a free Danny Welbeck who made no mistake in tucking the ball away to score in his first Tyne-Wear derby. Hatem Ben Arfa arrived as a sub late on to give the recovering Christian Eriksen a rest, and the talented Frenchman managed to grab his second goal of the season in the 81st minute after recieving the ball from Mohamed Diame on the edge of the box and striking first time to reach the bottom corner of the net.
