Well this week has been a fairly good one for Newcastle United Football Club (unless you are Keiron Dyer). We won twice, against Reading and Blackburn Rovers, against which many pundits predicted defeats heading our way.
I went to the Reading game on Wednesday, and the atmosphere was just as good - if not better - than that against Portsmouth. We eventually ran out winners, beating Reading 3-2. Antoine Sibierski scored a header from a Nobby Solano cross. Obafemi Martins scored a penalty, and Emre scored the goal of the season (Matt Taylor’s has to be a fluke (again)).
We played Blackburn Rovers on Saturday. We would appear to have been more comfortable as the scoreline suggested - we won 3-1. But there are times in the game, particularly at the beginning of each half, where we are a bit shaky. Obafemi Martins scored a good goal with a perfect run. Steven Taylor scored from point blank, and did his usual celebration of running round screaming. Obafemi Martins then finished, scoring into an empty net.
At least you can win a game,not like my lot West Ham,I think we are going down.
*snore* football *snore*
Dave, I wouldn’t worry, at least you don’t support Charlton… Anyway, you might feel differently after the Manchester United game.
And Shell, there is nothing *snore* about football.
