London Premier League clubs - Eddie Howe and Newcastle United on course for a remarkable achievement nufc epl
Opinion2 mins agoAesop’s fables played a part in my early childhood, I particularly liked the tale of the tortoise and the hare and perhaps that’s where a love for the underdog was formed.
With the unfortunate exception of Wembley Stadium, matches in London have been a source of considerable happiness for the Toon Army this season.Three weeks later we stuffed Spurs 2-1 at the Naming Rights Here stadium.An assured display at Selhurst Park earned another point on January 21.Extrapolate that over a full season and we would finish on 76 points, enough for an invaluable Champions League berth.
Younger readers might be surprised to learn that, not so long ago, any match in the capital against London Premier League clubs was likely to bring disappointment and dismay. Probably worse in my view was the day we lost 5-0 to Arsenal. Again, an unlikely opponent went home with the match ball. Their team featured Bergkamp, Henry, Kanu, Pires and Ljungberg, each of whom was an accomplished finisher, so you would have been laughed out of Ye Olde London Town for predicting the one and only Raymond Parlour would score three.
