Put together some interesting data on the Premier League's top clearers after the first 6 games.

Botman has made 50, second only to Coventry's Bobby Thomas (52). He's also won 27 headers, second behind Calvert-Lewin, and Thiaw isn't far behind him on clearances either.

I'd love to hear your thoughts: is this Botman back to his best, or a sign Newcastle defending too deep?

Morning all, I've seen similar posts on this thread so I hope this is good.

I have a big birthday this month and my lovely wife is sending me up to Newcastle with my friend this weekend.. Unfortunately we couldn't get tickets to the Villa game so I wanted to know what the best sports bars/pubs around Newcastle.

Thanks guys

Is he free on Saturday??

Dead rubber this one, but the lineup is decent. Suppose we can finish slightly off the bottom of the table. Yay.

I’m from the states (apologies) and have been a NUFC supporter for around 10 years, since the time I started watching football. I’ve never been to the UK, but want to badly! What’s Newcastle like as a city?

After a year of treatment for a chronic form of blood cancer, Darren Eales has been given the all-clear and, understandably, he is “buzzing”.

Newcastle United’s former chief executive, under whose watch the team won their first domestic trophy for seven decades, is fit and firing and very much at home.

Eales fell for Newcastle United and the city - which is why it hurt all the more when cancer forced him to step away.

He reflects on the highs and lows of his time as CEO at St James' Park.

It's that thing again where we like talk about random shite.

r/NUFC rules still apply.
