Smogs Match Moved
Due to our involvement
in the FA Cup Semi-Final, the Newcastle Vs Middlesbrough match
has been moved to a later date. The game was originally scheduled
for the 16th of April and means that the Boro game joins the
Fulham away game on the scrap heap of to be rearranged matches.FA Cup: We're Going To Cardiff...
NUFC 1-0 Spurs
Newcastle made it 7 wins out of 7 earlier on by beating Tottenham
Hotspur 1-0 at St. James' Park in the FA Cup Quarter-Final to
make it to the Semis and a trip to Cardiff... WOO HOO!
Patrick Kluivert's 5th minute goal, set up by Alan Shearer,
was enough to win what was a tense, frantic and heart stopping
game. After Paddy's goal it was basically all Spurs who had
the majority of possession and can count themselves unlucky
to have been dumped out... but who cares!
Two magnificent saves from Shay Given, a seemingly legitimate
goal ruled out from the visitors, two dodgy hand ball appeals
and quite brilliant defending all denied the team in yellow.
It was ugly, scrappy and at times, too much to bear as we hung
on nervously but WE DID IT. WE ARE IN THE SEMIS OF THE FA CUP.
Does it matter how we get there? Does it heck.
Every single Toon player earned their wages with an outstanding
show of defiance, a will to win and a 'we shall not be breached'
attitude that Souness has drummed into them - a winners attitude
and that's what we did, we won, our 7th game off the spin. Magnificent
stuff, great day, great result. Heroes the lot of em'.
Well done Graeme and the lads.
