One Toe in the Final: Joelinton Gives Newcastle an EFL Cup Edge
Taylor Payne, George Caulkin, and Jacob Whitehead reflect on the League Cup semi-final 1st leg at St Mary's, Southampton. Newcastle will take a one-goal lead into the home leg and must feel confident of making the final.That's all despite another wasteful night in front of goal. Why do our chances fall to the "wrong" players, what's going on with our headers, and does Callum Wilson need of a rest? Perhaps, contrary to popular opinion, Anthony Gordon is the answer...***Get a FREE 1 year supply of immune-supporting Vitamin D AND 5 FREE travel packs with your first purchase at athleticgreens.com/epl Hosted on Acast.

Palace next, on Saturday teatime, and then just three days later it's the away leg of our Carabao Cup semi-final! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

When Two Tribes Go To Draw: Leeds and Arsenal Reviewed

Carabao Cup Bonus: Relief as Newcastle Reach Last 16
Newcastle United progressed to the last 16 round of the Carabao Cup, albeit playing in less impressive fashion than we're used to in this remarkable season.Understandable, perhaps, given seven changes from the last league match, but the team are through and won a penalty shoot-out at St James' Park for the first time in competitive fixtures.

The (Epic) Eddie-versary Episode
It wasn't Newcastle's best performance of the season so far, but they were "ruthlessly efficient" in front of goal and ran out easy winners at Southampton.It's a mark of significant progress, since Eddie Howe took charge a year ago, that such a win could be viewed as routine. With two games to go until the World Cup break, the club is in rude health. Meanwhile, we're just rude, especially to Chris.Produced by Ollie Bellwood. Hosted on Acast.
