Massive game for the Toon

Well this maybe the first of 2 big games but its surely Newcastles best chance of capturing some well deserved silverware led by the one and only Alan Shearer!

1 nil advantage - it will be close but hopefully they can follow Chelsea and Liverpool in their great 2nd leg performances this week away from home in europe!

Come on Geordies!

To be frank i hope they lose, although it would be good to see shearer get some silverwear for once.

I do think they will lose though 2-0 in the away leg.

Furious Newcastle manager Graeme Souness blasted back at Frenchman Laurent Robert over his latest outburst on the eve of the club's UEFA Cup quarter-final clash with Sporting Lisbon.

Because Robert has been substituted in the last 3 games he in winging that the team is not as strong as last year wenh under Sir Bobby Robson!

Another ripple in the unrest at Newcastle United!

What is going on up there?

Not the best preperation!

Porto 1-2 Newcastle with Shearer scoring both for the Gerodies. I think theyll go on to win the Uefa cup My favourite team in Englan (not usual for me to like an english team) are actually doing well. I expect them to win it, and I think they have under acheived in the alst few years so this is something they need I think

They are playing against Sporting Lisbon Welsh Boy!!! - The General!

Should be tight but I think they'll get it, COME ON THE TOO,OON!
