What a memorable match last night. Newcastle triumphing 3-1 The drama of Newcastle's own goal almost summarising the Magpies' terrible season, Alan Shearer's aggressive double substitution and Obafemi Martens slippery action before watching his shot get the Geordies to 2-1. Nerve racking for the fans and players involved but amazing for any neutral football lover.
Anyway, take a look at this lot to see how tight it is. Newcastle moved out of the relegation zone last night pushing Phil Brown's demotivated Hull City into the 3rd from bottom drop position. Despite the gritty fight displayed by the Baggies, I can't see them getting any points at Anfield this weekend. Boro will go down purely due to their lack of scoring ability; Alves will not participate in either of their 2 last games this season which worsens the picture for Gareth Southgate. Hull City's only chance is that Man Utd win the league early and field a weak squad on the last day of season at the KC stadium. Alan Shearer's Newcastle United are galvanised now - I can see them getting 1-4 points from their games against Fulham and Villa. It will go right to the wire this one, incredible stuff.
