NEWCASTLE UNITED DONEO BOD SA OLD TRAFFORD-a
MANCHESTER UNITED - NEWCASTLE UNITED 1 : 1
U odličnom meču viđenom na Old Trafford-u, remizirali su Manchester United i Newcastle United rezultatom 1:1. Za Man United strelac je bio Javier Hernandez, dok je za Newcastle United, strelac bio Demba Ba.
Alan Pardew je na kišoviti Old Trafford izveo sledećih XI: Krul, Simpson, Steven Taylor, Coloccini, Ryan Taylor, Obertan, Cabaye, Guthrie, Gutierrez, Ben Arfa, Ba.
Newcastle United je dobro otvorio utakmicu. Ryan Taylor je imao vrlo dobru priliku, kada je na petercu, iskosa sa leve strane šutirao veoma traljavo u situaciji kada je mogao i morao bolje. Posle toga Ben Arfa divnom loptom pronalazi Ba, koji iz poluvoleja šutira preko gola.
Gabriel Obertan je imao možda i najboljih 45 minuta za Newcastle United, oprobao je svoj udarac sa distance, ali je lopta otišla visoko preko gola.
Tada Manchester United počinje da igra, stvarajući nekoliko vrlo dobrih prilika, pre svega preko Hernandez-a, koji je na našu sreću, bio veoma neprecizan. Giggs je takođe imao jednu vrlo dobru priliku za svoj tim, ali mu je Krul odbranio udarac.
Sredinom prvog poluvremena, sporečkali su se Rooney i Ben Arfa, jer je Rooney nogom zamahnuo ka Coloccini-u, dok je ovaj ležao na travi. To se nije svidelo Ben Arfa-i, koji je stao u odbranu svog kapitena, zbog čega je dobio i žuti karton. Jonas je od cele situacije odvukao Hatem-a, kako se situacija po njega ne bi pogoršala.
Poluvreme: 0 : 0
Međutim, Manchester United već posle četiri minuta igre u drugom poluvremenu dolazi do prednosti. Strelac je bio više nego srećni Javier Hernandez, kojeg je na petercu Newcastle-a loptom napucao Steven Taylor, posle čega se lopta odbila u praznu mrežu, za 1:0, minut 49.
Međutim, u 62. minutu, pomoćni sudija John Flynn je signalizirao glavnom sudiji meča Mike Jones-u, da je Rio Ferdinand u svom šesnaestercu faulirao Ben Arfa-u. TV snimak je jasno pokazao da je Ferdinand startovao na loptu i da je ovo bila sudijska greška. Međutim to nije zanimalo Demba Ba-u, koji je devetim golom izjednačio rezultat na 1:1, minut 64.
Treba napomenuti da je sedam-osam igrača Manchester-a konstantno vršilo pritisak da glavni sudija promeni odluku. Posle izvođenja jedanesterca, ponovo su igrači u crvenom okružili glavnog sudiju. U protestima je prednjačio Wayne Rooney.
U 78. minutu Jonas Gutierrez dobija drugi žuti karton i Newcastle United do kraja meča igra sa desetoricom.
Kako smo do kraja utakmice preživeli napade Manchester United-a, samo Bog zna. Krul je u nekoliko navrata fantastično reagovao, odbranivši udarce Viduću i Evra-i, dok je u Simpson u jednoj prilici izbacio loptu sa gol linije. Jednom se i stativa tresla posle udarca Ashley Young-a. U sudijskoj nadoknadi Hernandez postiže gol, ali mu ga pomoćni poništava zbog minimalnog offside-a.
Konačan rezultat: 1 : 1

MANCHESTER CITY NANEO PRVI PORAZ NEWCASTLE-u
MANCHESTER CITY - NEWCASTLE UNITED 3 : 1
Uprkos prvom porazu, koji se dogodio tek u dvanaestom kolu Premier League, Newcastle United je ostavio pozitivan utisak na Etihad Stadium.
Veoma loših poslednjih četiri minuta prvog poluvremena, koštala su Newcastle United makar nerešenog rezultata.
Pre nego što je City načeo mrežu Newcastle-a, igralo se dosta mrno, bez puno prilika. City je stvorio dve, jednu preko Aguero-a, koji je sa distance oprobao udarac i drugu preko Balotelli-a, koji je glavom uputio udarac ka Krul-u a ovaj mu maestralno odbranio udarac.
Međutim, u 41. minutu, lopta posle udarca Yaya Toure-a u ruku pogađa Ryan Taylor-a koji se nalazio u svom petercu i sudija Chris Foy dosuđuje jedanesterac za City. Siguran izvođač sa bele tačke bio je Mario Balotelli, poslavši loptu u Krul-ov levi ugao, dok se golman Newcastle-a nije ni pomerio, za 1:0, minut 41.
Baš kada se činilo da će City na odmor otići sa minimalnom prednošću, Ryan Talyor greši u svom šesnaestercu, što koristi Micah Richard, koji udarcem sa desetak metara matira Krul-a za 2:0 minut 44.
Imao je Newcastle svoje prilike preko Demba Ba-e, ali je njegov vrlo dobar udarac odbranio City-ev čuvar mreže Joe Hart. Ta prilika se dogodila pri rezultatu 0:0 i ko zna šta bi bilo, da je Newcastle tada poveo?
Poluvreme: 2 : 0
U nastavku meča, Hamtem Ben Arfa je imao odličnu priliku, ali je posle udarac desnom nogom lopta odsela na stativi i odbila se u polje.
Coloccini je takođe imao priliku, kada je posle jednog kornera hvatao volej, ali lopta je otišla pored stative. Guthrie je imao jedan odličan prodor po levoj strani, kada je povratnom loptom pokušao da proigra jednog svog saigrača, ali je i ovoga puta Hart odlično reagovao.
Kraj balade dogodio se u 72. minutu, kada je Ben Arfa u svom šesnaetercu nespretno oborio Micah Richards-a, koji je pao, kao da ga je tenk udario od nazad a ne Hatem Ben Arfa.
Ovoga puta siguran sa bele tačke, bio je Sergiu Kun Aguero, koji je poslao loptu u jednu a Krul-a u drugu stranu, za 3:0, minut 72.
U 89. minutu, James Perch sjajno upošljava Ba-u, koji nije uspeo da savlada Joe Hart-a, ali u nastavku akcije, rezervista Dan Gosling sa tri metra ubacuje loptu u praznu mrežu, za konačnih 3:1, minut 89. Prvi gol Gosling-a u crno-belom dresu.
Konačan rezultat: 3 : 1
NUFC: Krul, Simpson, S.Taylor, Coloccini, R.Taylor, Sa.Ameobi (Gosling 79), Cabaye (Perch 85), Guthrie, Gutierrez, Ben Arfa (Lovenkrands 76), Ba.
Subs n/u: Elliot, Santon, Smith, Sh.Ameobi.
MCFC: Hart, Richards, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, Milner, Nasri, De Jong, Y.Toure (Barry 84), Aguero (Johnson 76), Balotelli (Silva 69).
Subs n/u: Pantilimon, Kolarov, K.Toure, Dzeko.
Man of the Match: Micah Richards
Sudija: Chris Foy (jeftini penali dosuđeni za City)
Gledalaca: 47,408 (najveća poseta ikada na Etihad-u, uz 1700 Toon Army)
P.S.
Nije loše bilo. Jeftino smo poklonili pobedu City-u. Lepo je bilo videti da su se De Jong i Ben Arfa rukovali na početku meča. Posle ovog kola, Tottenham nas je pretekao na tabeli i mi smo skliznuli za jedno mesto. Trenutno smo četvrti. Zanimljivo je bilo videti i Steven Taylor-a, kojem je prokrvavio nos, pritom mu okrvavio i dres, pa je morao da obuče dres sa brojem 45 na leđima ali bez imena. Sledeći meč je u subotu, takođe u Manchester-u, ali na Old Trafford-u.

"You guys don't understand how f****** horrible we can be"
Sunday Mirror article, Sunday
13.11.2011
Newcastle managing director Derek Llambias stunned Toon Army fans by unleashing an astonishing, foul-mouthed rant in public on Geordie icons Alan Shearer and Kevin Keegan.
The former casino boss — who virtually never gives media interviews — delivered a withering condemnation on the managerial abilities of the Magpies legends in front of startled onlookers in a Newcastle gastro bar.
Llambias, who along with Toon owner Mike Ashley has enraged Toon fans by re-branding historic St. James’ Park as the Sports Direct Arena, blamed Shearer for Newcasle’s 2009 relegation and claimed there “will never be a right time” for the former England skipper in management.
"I have to admit that £30m for Andy Carroll is a lot of money," Lambias said, before responding when one supporter asked him "Is he worth £30m?": "No - he's worth f*** all."
With Chelsea closing a deal worth £50 million for Fernando Torres on January's deadline day, Liverpool were under pressure to bring in a new striker and Llambias claimed that they could push for the entire Carroll fee up front.
Llambias explained: "It is about control. We had the control. We knew the Torres deal was there. We drew that f****** deal, perhaps the ultimate. So £30m? F*** off! Don't waste my time and I slammed the phone down.
"£35m? Everybody including Pardew [manager Alan Pardew] all agreed. But the £35m they wanted to pay over four years. It was rubbish. Mike (Ashley) said - and he is a brave boy Mike I promise you - get all the £35m up front. We got it all up front and then they never paid us on time and we charged them 12 grand f****** interest."
In a blistering broadside aimed at Keegan, the Magpies MD claimed the former England boss is unable to cope with the stresses and strains of management.
Llambias railed: "Kevin Keegan can’t take pressure. His f****** head is all over the place.”
He also made a shocking claim in a meeting with fans last month that Keegan’s second coming as Newcastle manager in 2008 came about because he was the preferred choice of potential Arab buyers. He revealed:
“Mike was selling to the Arabs and they wanted Kevin Keegan. The Arabs wanted him, the fans wanted him — perfect!”
A candid Llambias admitted he was at fault for recruiting Shearer as manager in April 2009 when Newcastle were battling to avoid the drop. Llambias said:
"Shearer was my choice and I have to hold up my hands — the wrong choice."
Referring to the relegation battle and the managerial team of Shearer and Iain Dowie, he claimed: "Shearer, for this, destroys us. He gave all the responsibility to Dowie. Rubbish!"
A supporter suggests "It wasn’t the right time" for Shearer. Llambias responded brusquely, and said: "It would never be the right time. Shearer? There would never be a right time in football.”
When one of the onlookers suggested Shearer is arrogant, Llambias agreed and said: "You guys have given him that arrogance."
What will perplex Newcastle fans about Llambias’ put-down of the Geordie hero is the fact that days after relegation, Ashley issued a statement in which he said:
"Bringing Alan Shearer back to Newcastle United was the best decision I have made."
Chris Hughton succeeded Shearer as manager and led Toon back into the top flight at the first attempt as champions. Hughton was sacked by Newcastle a year ago, and is now manager of Birmingham. He was also in the Llambias line of fire when one of the group asked why he was dismissed.
Llambias responded: "He would never have taken us where we want to be. That’s my decision by the way. Chris can’t make decisions. If I am asking about a player, Ben Arfa? he says ‘I’m not sure, blah blah’.
"With Chris, he couldn’t cope with where we are mentally. We are aggressive. You need to be aggressive. I don’t want a manager below me who can’t argue.”
But of all the colourful claims made by Llambias perhaps the one that will not be disputed by Toon fans is: "You guys don’t understand how f****** horrible we can be.”
After last week’s act of soccer sacrilege at St. James’ Park, many Geordies believe they understand only too well. Newcastle declined to comment last night.
