Notts County v Middlesbrough (1902)
More old school footage from Mitchell and Kenyon collection. Little did they know down Nottingham way that in little over a century a greedy, sleazy Swede would be dumped upon them. Interesting to note that at least the fans waved at the camera in those days, these days they seem to somewhat bizarrely wave at themselves on the screen.
Post-hooligans Carling Cup highlights
Who can stop the boys from White Hart lane? Not the lads from Wigan, that's for sure, although maybe Newcastle might be getting a chance sooner than I thought. Crystal Palace 0 - 2 Manchester City The team that cost 200 million quid needed second half goals from Shaun Wright-Phillips and Carlos Tevez to put them into the next round of the [...]
Relegation amble sees Newcastle go down with Boro and WBA
No, because they turned it down before Shearer got the job. Aston Villa 1 - 0 Newcastle Alan Shearer believes Newcastle need a complete overhaul after their relegation, i.e get rid of all these muppets and sign others on smaller contracts. The Toon’s relegation fate seemed etched in stone after Damien Duff was hugely unlucky to divert a [...]
Premier League roundup
Here be the best and worst of the rest... Middlesbrough 1 - 1 Aston Villa Doomed I tells ya. Mighty Tuncay Şanlı had the Riverside on their feet after 14 minutes, the Turk scoring a wondrous overhead-volley to put Boro in front against Villa. Villa equalised early in the second half though, thanks to a very big John Carew strike through a [...]
Newcastle 3-1 Middlesbrough
Tactical genius Alan Shearer praised his side after they came from behind to beat Middlesbrough for a vital win. Newcastle got off to the worst possible start though, conceding inside three minutes. Alves played the ball into big Tuncay Şanlı, the Turk turning brilliantly before Habib Beye eventually sent the ball into his own net. The Magpies [...]

All of today's thrills and spills from England's wealthiest league... Middlesbrough 0 - 2 Manchester United Captain for the day (fair enough), PFA favourite (OK, you won't find many professional footballers who begrudge him the honour) and occasional player Ryan Giggs claimed the opener at the Riverside in the 25th minute with a left-footed [...]
It’s Saturday, that means Premier League action
Sunderland 1 - 0 Hull Oh dear, Hull are now in deep shit. Ricky Sbragia's side gained three valuable points as Hull were pushed deeper into the relegation mire, thanks to Djibril Cisse converting Andy Ried’s cross on the stroke of halftime to give the Black Cats all three points. Stoke 1 - 0 Blackburn The match was settled 15 [...]
Saturday in the Prem
Sunderland 1 - 2 Manchester United After dominating the early stages, elderly gent Paul Scholes nodded in a Wayne Rooney cross to put United on their way. However, once again dodgy defending harmed United’s title charge, Kenwyne Jones poking home after Ben Foster failed to claim a Tainio cross. For his latest trick, Manchester United's new [...]
Saturday in the Premier league
Not a bad afternoon, all said and done, particularly if you're from the red half of Liverpool. Fulham beat nine-man Man Utd as Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney were red carded, while Luka Modric's goal was the difference between the sides as Tottenham moved up to ninth. Three quickfire second-half Arsenal goals left Newcastle mired in the bottom [...]
