Time For Potential To Become Reality
What have Steven Taylor, James Milner,
Michael Chopra, Peter Ramage and even Hugo Viana all got in common?
They are all young, hungry players who either never had the chance
or won't get the chance to succeed at our club, with the possible
exception of young Taylor. Following my colleague Howaythetoon's article

What About St. James' Park?
An official statement from the club website: Bring Your Flags To Cardiff
Newcastle United are encouraging their supporters to make the
Millennium Stadium, Cardiff a flag happy zone when the Geordies
turn out in force to cheer their team into the FA Cup Final
on Sunday.
And in doing so they have taken the lead in producing their
own giant flag, measuring 20m by 10m, which will be in amongst
the Magpie supporters when the United's of Newcastle and Manchester
meet each other in the second of this season's FA Cup semi final
ties.
A United spokesman said:
"We already know that our fiercely passionate supporters will
make more noise at the stadium over the weekend than any of
the other semi finalists. In encouraging our supporters to take
flags, banners, and other United paraphernalia to Cardiff, we
want our half of the stadium to be a seething mass of black
and white shirts and flags.
"We have produced a massive flag ourselves, and we would personally
encourage every supporter, wherever possible, to do the same!"
