Taylor Payne welcomes The Athletic's Newcastle United trio of George Caulkin, Chris Waugh, and Jacob Whitehead to another week's discussion, albeit not the most pleasant one we've had of late. For the first time this season, there was a slight sense of capitulation as Aston Villa ran roughshod over our worryingly passive Magpie men.

A different story on Sunday, though, as Becky Langley's NUFC Women took Bradford to task and boosted their goal difference in front of a big crowd at St James's Park. All great news after last week's injury time heartbreak and they are hot on Durham Cestria's heels in FAWNL Division One North.
