I hope you still remember every single words you said earlier in the summer last year when your big mouth shout about you will bring your team to be the dominant force in the North East. The fact is you and your rookie manager will possibly bring mackems back to the championships next season.

Yesterday the lads were too generous to your team in the second-half after we did great in first-half and wor Michael Owen producing his best form for Newcastle, scoring six goals in six games for us now and he will keep scoring until May to take us end this season with more pride.

In a game that we should have won with bigger margin and have an own goal disallowed, Keegan said that we have seeing the very best of MO right now, and pleased about that.

“In that position, people thought he wouldn’t score goals - but he can’t stop scoring goals - he’s now a midfield player and a forward, so we’ve got two players in Michael.” Keegan added more from the official site, “This is the first time he’s had a run here, and the first time the fans have seen the real Michael Owen. And I’m glad they are seeing it.”

By the way, after reviewing a match preview from Sunderland Echo before the North-East derby, I was so pleased to read what they write today. They write about a defeat in this derby is death-in-the-family-time for most fans on either side. And for an awful lot of mackems, the simple truth is that if their team were to beat Boro, Bolton and Arsenal in their final three games, it wouldn’t make up for yesterday’s defeat.

Yes, actually your team was lucky only lost by two goals against the Mighty Magpies who is not playing good yesterday. I think from now, you better prepare some tissues, and weep in bitter tears when you get all those three games left end-up with another defeat.

And oh, before I forgotten. I’d like to hear your young Richardson would say now, does he still think that mackems can be as big as ManU after what he saw yesterday? Now who’s got the real “soap opera” here, Newcastle United or mackems? After three wins or so, your player think mackems will be the new premier league leader? I don’t think so It took another century at least, and maybe more…

We are the Geordies, the Geordie boot boys,
Oh we are mental, oh we are mad,
we are the loyalist, football supporters,
the world has ever had!

HOWAY THE LADS!!!

Alright, first of all congratulations for your achievements with Pompey this year and making it to the final of FA Cup would be your once in a lifetime experience, so enjoy it while still can Appy Arry.

That sounds a sour introduction? Oh yes, I was in the purpose of writing that as my response for his small arrogancy, by saying he is delighted to refuse taking the job at Newcastle, which we also feel as delighted as he is and we thank God that you did that.

“It was nice to be wanted by a club like Newcastle,” Redknapp said. “On the one hand, people said take on the challenge to prove I could do it with a big club. But on the other, I’ve brought good players in here at Portsmouth and wanted to stay loyal to them. I’m delighted that I did.”

Honestly, I don’t think the Appy Arry is the right man to take the world’s biggest challenge, to manage Newcastle United. It needs more than just experience, more than have won something with other club, even more than have manage a ’small’ club to taste the European league.

I’m glad that Mike Ashley finally realize that United only need a ‘Messiah’ and that’s why he decide to bring back the one and only King Kevin Keegan.

Call us all ‘the Believers’ and we admit that very gladly, yes we are, the Toon Army are all pure believers and Keegan has give something that none of our previous managers can give which is ‘HOPE’.

“I think the summer could be very exciting,” Keegan said as quoted from the Times Online, “I’ve got an idea who I’d like to bring here, but I might be dreaming.”

“I’ve always thought that the most important place is the training ground and the most important thing is the training. I’m not saying they were overcomplicating it, but what we’ve done is trained more, played more football and by doing that, we’ve got the confidence to get the ball and play. Even against Reading we were probably only 80 per-cent, but it still produced a lot of exciting football because of their belief.”

And, when all the training that Keegan did to our players this week can produce more higher level than what they’ve got last Saturday, even it’s only 5 per-cent more, I believe we can have something good this weekend at Fratton Park.

This was a game we would undoubtedly have lost 2 months ago - and yet we won 3-0. That is a measure of how far we’ve come under KK.

Reading started brightly, and we really struggled to get on top, principally because we couldn’t a grip on midfield. This was where, for me, the team showed real bottle, fighting their individual battles, and and battling for each other - refusing to allow Reading to get a firm foothold in the game, until genuine class could come to the fore.

We scored against the run of play with a typical Oba Martins goal - which must have been a dagger to Reading’s heart - and we never looked back.

A 2nd goal just before half-time, well created by Beye, and superbly put away by Owen - although he looked as though he may have been marginally offside to me - effectively ended the game as a contest, and we got well on top in the 2nd, although to be fair Reading never lay down.

Essentially a good team performance, with players playing for each other, but some good individual performances. I wouldn’t really like to single out anyone in particular because no one put in less than a good shift.

David Edgar filled in for the injured Steven Taylor, and started nervously making a few errors. However, supported by Beye and Faye, he played his way into the game, had a good 2nd half, and overall his peformance was very satisfactory.

The relief around SJP this afternoon was apparent, and everyone went home happy at a decent performance, and in the knowledge that Premier League footy has been secured. Let’s hope this is the last time we have to endure this kind of torture.

I really never imagine that all my internet friends are so care about me especially for today. I have plenty of emails from the admin of couple forum where I was their member. Also to all my greatest Toon friends at Newcastle forum, thanks Lads and Lasses you are so special!!!

I also would like to say thank you to all my blog visitors for keep coming back to read my post, add comments and making this blog growing rapidly. Without you all, this blog is nothing, so I really appreciate your attention and your time to visit this blog.

Howay the Lads!!!

I know we are just having two wins since he made the shocking return to English football league, and most of the media and those who commited themself as the football expert have been said he made a big mistake and he will failed again because the game is now totally different than his previous years with Newcastle. I’m telling you, they are totally wrong about King Kev.

Interesting how the media can make such a different opinions after we start to win things around and also, although some of their previous report are maybe 75% are telling the truth about United situation, but I still thought that it was really unfair to make such an early judgement that he could fail and soon to get sacked again.

Now, I have read today that the papers are started to praise him as he is soon to be the next Premierships master of tactician, funny isn’t it? Well, let’s hear what Keegan said in an interview taken from footballaudio.com by clicking on the image on the left.

And then, I only want to quote some of what the papers said here, I will let you decide whether they have been telling you the truth or another false commentary from their own typical market oriented journalism, other than that let’s enjoy our win and continuing to perform on this Saturday at home against Reading, time for a sweet revenge of what they did to us in our first meeting with them

For those who may find such a statement a little melodramatic it was at least the day when, having stuttered and spluttered since Keegan returned, the Magpies not only buried Tottenham Hotspur on their own turf but their relegation fears with it.

the Independent
Hilarious as many outsiders have found Tyneside’s footballing soap opera this season, all neutrals should be cheered by events at White Hart Lane yesterday. It was not just the improbable result, which should ensure Newcastle United remain in the Premier League next season, but the performance. A scintillating second-half display evoked echoes of Kevin Keegan’s glorious first spell as commander of the Toon Army. Assuming chairman Mike Ashley invests this summer, maybe, just maybe, “The Messiah” can justify the hype which accompanied his return in January.

Telegraph.co.uk
Kevin Keegan has been called many things during his colourful managerial career but rarely a master tactician. At White Hart Lane yesterday, he outwitted the wily Juande Ramos as completely as his team outplayed Tottenham.
