To the (ludicrous) suggestion should relocate their training ground south to help attract players, Howe says 'absolute non-starter. We're playing for NUFC, working for NUFC, we’re in Newcastle & that’s how it should be. We're very proud to be associated with the city.'

After nearly a year in charge & with 4th, Howe says 'there's an element of just starting with the team & we've got so much more to achieve.' Expresses 'disappointment when (the story is) just purely about money in that it takes away the credit from the players.'

Eddie Howe's press conference: ASM has 'a chance' of being involved vs Villa. Made 'very good' progress in his rehab and is doing three sessions a day, two at the training ground, 1 at home. Isak has had a couple of injections in thigh, but gone well. Timescale 5/6 weeks.

One of the arguments they made for the “super league” was that the Champions Lge was too predictable.

This season has been wildly unpredictable — Juve, Atletico, Barça out.
And you just know Agnelli, Perez etc will say this unpredictability is the problem theathletic.com/3737422/2022/1…

The race is run, the chase complete. For now....

After 40 years of trying, I finally ticked off the last ground this week to join the Ninety-Two Club. I just wish my Dad was still alive to share in the moment...

can “do what they want financially,” Jurgen Klopp said recently. And maybe in a couple of years that will be true.

But 6 of Eddie Howe’s team that beat Spurs were at the club pre-takeover. The biggest part of this season’s story? Becoming better.

This season, Newcastle United’s pressing, wing-play and corner routines have caught the eye. But against Spurs, it was long passes behind the defence that gave them the edge.

Analysis of how Newcastle’s long passes caused problems for Tottenham.
