Premier League result of the week
Newcastle 3 Liverpoo1 1
Newcastle finally managed to get it right where it matters the most, the pitch.
Their 3-1 beating of Liverpool FC put an end to a turbulent week at the club which left them 8th in the league and just 5 points off a European qualification place.
Although this was an impressive victory for Newcastle, Liverpool were abysmal. Their performance was lacklustre and they looked just a shadow of the team that has won 5 European cups and 18 League titles. Their star player ‘Fernando Torres’ emphasised this as he failed to convert his half hearted attempts on goal. Newcastle on the other were a sharper, stronger and a more compact unit. They raced into the league within 15 mins with a 'Kevin Nolan' free kick which instantly relieved some of the pressure on Newcastle new manger Alan Pardew.
Kuyt equalized on the 49th min to give Liverpool some hope and it was looked like Liverpool might nick an away point despite Newcastle being the better team. But all hope was put to bed when unlikely hero ‘Joey Barton’ struck on the 80th minute to put Newcastle 2-1 up. Andy Caroll then put Liverpool out of their misery with a possible candidate for gaol of the season with a blinding shot from 20 yards to make it 3-1 to the magpies

Looney Toons
The saying goes that 'nice guys finish last' and this has certainly been the case for for Ex Newcastle Manager Chris Hughton, who he has become the first premier league manager to get the sack this season.
Having lead Newcastle into the Premier League as winners of the Championship (Divison one) Chris Houghton has quietly stamped his mark on the club. At present they sit tenth in the Premier League and have been victorious against Arsenal(away) as well as giving Aston Villa a 6-0 beating at home. I’ll be the first to admit I'm not one of Newcastle's biggest fans as I just can not fathom the hype that surrounds the club,however with Chris there I was beginning to warm to them. I was even starting like to their joke of a chairman Mike Ashely
But in true Newcastle form the club have embarrassed themselves by making this awful decision. Granted, Chris wouldn’t have won them the league but at least he brought them stability and substance which is something Newcastle have lacked since their messiah’s (Kevin Keegans') first stint.
This could turn out to be a masterstroke by Newcastle but in the meantime the saga that is the ‘Toon Army’ continues.
Chris Hughton looks up to the sky in disbelief.

AEK Athens
I went to Athens recently and found a new team to support. My friend told me they are not the best team but I support Tottenham Hotspur FC so what’s new? Apparently they don’t have a ground and the fans are rowdy (they were banned from their Europa cup game again Dundee UTD), but I don’t care I just like their logo so I brought a lighter and key ring home. Next time I will by their shirt, maybe they can play in the football stadium used for the Olympics? But judging by the below video it’s probably not a good idea.

Wayne's World
Now, I love football I really do, but sometimes I just get bored with the whole circus that surronds it
Take Wayne Rooneys off the pitch antics
I switch on the radio and professional pundits (well ex football players) are debating it, I switch on the 24 hour sports TV channel (in HD) and they’re banging on about it. And to make things worse both of these well known established broadcasters have the word sport in their name
So where is the Sport then?!?
Wayne Rooney maybe our next great hope but what he does off the pitch really doesn’t concern me
When I pick up the paper all I want to know is the team formation or a decent write up on the game not how many hookers Rooney has supposedly slept with
This brings me to my next point
Has English football become so poor that sports journalist have resorted to reporting on player’s sex lives just to fill pages?
Judging by the recent results (Liverpool 1 Blackpool 2 anyone?) I think not. So enough with the lazy journalism and lets concentrate on the beautiful game that we all love.
If only Rooney could keep his eye on the ball
