Some Goals!

Well our friendly with PSV brought us some goals from Taylor and Guthrie in the first 10 minutes of the match. We were later pegged back with PSV’s equaliser coming in the last 10 minute after a variety of changes for the Toon. Good result looking at things.
Alan Smith did not feature with KK stating […]

Weekend Round Up: Majorca Cup

Well what have we learned from the past couple of preseason games? That so far nothing has really changed. KK is in need of 5 players still (maybe 4 if Collocini finally signs) with 2 new fullbacks, a target man with some legs and a creative playmaker who I have to say we have never […]

Weekend Roundup

Well after a slow start in our preseason game against Hartlepool we sparked to life. Having gone a goal down we bounced back by 4 courtesy of a hat trick from forgotten man Damien Duff and new young boy Guthrie.
Good signs considering the team was depleted of many regular first teamers not to mention Hartlepool […]

New Fixture List

New season fixture list is now out and what a start! We’ve got 2 away games in the first 3 games against Manure and Arsenal. All we can hope for is we catch these 2 teams when they aren’t on all cylindars… Our first game being against Man United and our first home game against […]

Ashley then goes on to […]

Pompey Up Next

So come tea time we’ll be kicking off at Fratton Park our longest journey of the season (Live on Setanta Sports coverage starts at 4pm).
We certainly owe this lot one after they came and conquered us 1-4 at St. James Park. I certainly couldn’t handle that day myself but perhaps looking back it was for […]

Are You Watching Big Fat Sam?

10th place out of reach?
Well on the basis of our play then no?
Spurs seem to have gone on holiday since the Carling Cup final and the Hammers are struggling for form with an injury list (probably most of our ex has beens) as bad as we used to have on a regular basis then […]

Earn Your Spurs

So we go up against the Spuds knowing that we stay at least 6 points clear after today’s results (however the mackems have jumped above us). We haven’t the worst record against Spurs having won I believe our last 4-5 encounters against them. They tend to be a yoyo of a team (bit like us) […]

3 Points Please

As I go out the door I hope that when I return to follow this up we will once and for all have our first 3 points under Kevin Keegan.
Out goes bets like Newcastle not to win the rest of the season at 8-1 as publicised on Setanta Sports today. I think it is high […]
