NEWCASTLE UNITED FOOTBALL CLUB

Newcastle United Football Club (also known as The Magpies or The Toon, and often abbreviated to NUFC) is an English professional association football club based in Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear. The club was founded in 1892 by the merger of Newcastle East End and Newcastle West End, and has played at its current home ground, St James' Park, since the merger. The ground was developed into an all-seater stadium in the mid-1990s and now has a capacity 52,387. The club has been a member of the Premier League for all but two years of the competition's history, and never dropped below the English football's second tier, since joining the Football League in 1893.



Club Staff:
Life President: Sir John Hall
Owner: Mike Ashley
Managing Director: Derek Llambias


ST JAMES' PARK

History
St James' Park Stadium is an all-seater stadium in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. It is the home of Newcastle United Football Club, and the oldest and largest football stadium in the North East of England.It is the sixth largest football stadium in the United Kingdom with a football spectator capacity of 52,409. Located in the centre of Newcastle, its white cantilever roof is visible across the city, and is the largest cantilever in Europe.

Occupied by the Toon Army fan-base in the Milburn Stand, the East Stand, the Leazes End and the Gallowgate End, the ground has been the home ground of Newcastle United since 1892, and been used for football since 1880.Throughout its history, the desire for expansion has caused conflict with local residents and the local council.This has led to proposals to move at least twice in the late 1960s, and a controversial 1995 proposed move to nearby Leazes Park. Reluctance to move has led to the distinctive lop-sided appearance of the present-day stadium's asymmetrical stands.

Besides club football, St James' Park has also been used for international football, will be used as a football venue for the 2012 Olympics, and will also be used as a rugby venue for the 2015 Rugby World Cup. In addition to professional football, the stadium has hosted charity football events and rock concerts, and been used as a set for film and reality television.

Haha..thanks..but we really need the members from the FB page to join in and be here too..hope u and the rest who are already here will continue the support..

HOWAY THE LADS!!!

Where are all the Malaysian Toon Army? Still enjoying the football off season is it? Come on guys..the season is just days away and we have a massive match at SJP against those Gunners..lets look forward to that game and the season..

Come on guys..lets predict the team for the Gunners match..

My team if Barton plays:

------------------------------Krul------------------------------------

Simpson--------Saylor---------------Colo-------------------Jose

-----------------------------Tiote------------------------------------

Marveaux-------Barton---------------Cabaye---------------Jonas

------------------------------Ba-------------------------------------


if joey is on the bench then same team but put Best up front with Ba...in my opinion, we need Joey in this game coz the Gunners dont like him and he will absolutely bully them if he plays..

What are ur guys predictions? Lets get this thread up and running again..Im gonna ask some of the Toon Army Malaysia supporters from the FB page to come and join us here..if anyone could invite any other NUFC fans u know, do ask them to join us too..

HOWAY THE LADS!!!

Added on August 10, 2011, 6:14 pmyea..Walcott, Fabregas, Nasi, Wilshere, Van Persie, Vemalen..thats some big names I can tell u..hopefully we are on our game for the match..

Aye..Gervinho seems to be the danger man if RVP isnt playing..their midfield could be where we need to attack as of now and we find ourselves equal if not better in that area of the pitch compared to what we had in the 4-4 draw..

Look at our midfileders now:
Jonas, Marveaux, Obertan, Cabaye, Tiote, Gosling, Barton, Vuckic, Smith??, Guthrie (inured), Abeid, Raylor, Sameobi..

I f we can get a hold of midfield, we could stop them from playing and we can apply pressure of our own on them..

All we need is another decent striker and spirits will be up in the Toon!!

SHOLA SIGNS A 2 YEAR CONTRACT EXTENSION!!!

Well if Shola who is 29 years old can get a new contract then surely uMike can give Colo and Joey new contracts too..they're 29 or about to become 29too..!!!

Added on August 10, 2011, 10:46 pmseriously bro I respect u for having something that most, if not all, Newcastle United fans dont have.. and that is hope for our Spanish striker Xisco..every season u always have that ray of hope for the guy to be given a chance..im not sure he will get it but seriously well done to u for still having faith in him

Guys..since we cant see Tim Krul playing for Holland tonight against England, then tune in to Astro Supersport 2 (CH816) & Supersport HD 2 (CH833) at 3.00 am and we might see Yohan Cabaye play for France against Chile..lets hope he stays injury free..he really looks like a great2 player..

Lets hope the Arsenal game goes ahead or we could be looking at our first game coming at the Dark place called the Stadium of Plight..I think this is the best tome to play Arsenal with all the instability they are having with Cesc and Nasri..and they have a Champions League qualifier coming up next week so we have a good chance..

Yea..tend to agree with bro The Zul and Zero Cool..but Im not sure about just playing one striker and having 2 DM..we're playing at home in the 1st game of the season..St James' packed to the rafters with a great atmosphere..and we are facing an side who are on the verge (if not already) of losing their captain Cesc..n Nasri also not playing plus injuries to Walccott and Wilshere..

I dont know bout u guys but if I see Arsenal line up with a depleted midfield, I would just stick Tiote and Cabaye in the middle and go with 2 strikers up front with Ba and Best/Ameobi..Arsenal defenders dont like to be bullied especially Koscielny..if Vermaalen doesnt play thats even better..N i would seriously consider playing Jeoy coz we need that tough midfielder who would bully the Arsenal players..

N what are the odds on: Joey already tweeting sying he will play but he actually starts on the bench..he comes on and scores a last minute winner..does some crazy wild 'Ketsbaia' like celebrations, disses Mike Ashley and Derek Llambias in ost match interviews and before the night is over he tweets again saying the club has accepted and offer for him and he's off to.......Arsenal?

thats the nasty thought I just had..

Owh and guys..do read this interview with Yohan Cabye..Im gonna put my money on this lad being our best signing this summer..really starting to like him as a player and and a professional..he comes across as a sensible guy and i already think I have my new favourite player if Joey leaves..gonna get CABAYE 4 on my new shirt

Pardew: Yohan Cabaye is Newcastle's Mr. Sensible

Yup..thats the line up I was going for except the RB position..I know Simpson is shite but him and Raylor in defending? I go for Simmo just becoz he is a defender..

I'm gonna stay glued to the internet today hoping that the Premier League gives the go ahead for the games this weekend and hoping we get some news on Erik Pieters..

Rumours are that we could do a swap with Arsenal for Bendtner and they get Jose..would be fine by me if only we get Pieters in..apparently the striker search will only pickup early next week so no new striker before Arsenal match

Well right now..Im just flabbergasted..seriously..selling Jose for 6 million is pathetic..but we cant blame the board..it was either the 6 million on offer now, or none at all at end of the season..or we could have waited till the end of August and either Jose stays with us or Liverpool come in with a lower offer and we had to accept..so yeah Im disapointed but theres not much we can do..

As for my parting words for Jose, have fun playing for a team not in Europe like the one u said u wanted to join..u lied to the fans least season when u said u would sign the contract extension when we were safe..but u didnt and from then on, although ur a good player, i didnt like u for lying..so good luck but I wished u were good enough for Barca..

All im hoping for is we could get Erik Pieters in tonight or tomorrow morning..deadline for players to play on Saturday is 12pm of Friday to register so lets see what happens..

As for Bentdner, I would take him now eventhough he's the white Ameobi..I would rather take him than paying stuipd kind of money to Spurs for either Pavulychenko, Defoe or even than Crouch..

thats a sad picture to start my day..expected but still sad..

owh n now Jose found his smile again? Pffttt

Im trying to forget the whole Jose Enrique and left back sage and trying to think positive for the Arsenal game..yeah we have lost Jose and dont have a proper LBbut looking at what we have and what Arsenal are going through, Jose's departure doesnt changed the fact that tomorrow is the best possible time to play Arsenal..

I believe we will still add a few more players..maybe not the top names or the big stars but if we get some unknown low profile player but the quality us like Tiote or Cabaye, then I would be pretty happy..

Im more focus on looking at what the mackems can do rather than what the ex Toon players at Liverpool are doing..and tbh, mackems look pretty different and more dangerous than last season..

Good news, Gyan off injured..out of next week's derby?

Newcastle team line up:

Krul, Simpson,Coloccini, S Taylor, R Taylor, Barton, Tiote, Cabaye, Jonas, Shola, Ba

Subs: Forster, Gosling, Obertan, Williamson, Lovenkrands, Sam Ameobi, Best

No Vuckic on the bench meh? Lovenkrands ahead of him? Marveaux has a slight knock..no Harper too..
