October 18 Matchday, Aston Villa (h): Manzambi inevitable, Newcastle inexplicable
Newcastle United followed up the Premier League loss at Coventry with another against Villa at home; a much stronger opposition, it's true, but this was no less worrying.
Of course Johan Manzambi got the goal; if only Newcastle's defence had been as wary of his presence as the fans! And it could have been a lot worse had Sven Botman seen red for a reckless challenge on Nicolas Jackson.
How dangerous might a run of defeats be for new manager Matthias Jaissle with a squad blending youngsters with those elevated to first-choice?

October 14 Newcastle 'self-thrashed': how can Jaissle combat the chaos?
Newcastle United away from home in the Premier League on a Monday night is becoming the stuff of nightmares.
A second consecutive 4-1 defeat in such a fixture, the match against Coventry was the same as the trip to Leeds, albeit very different, and it was just as bad, while being much worse.
Get your head around that as we try to map out Matthias Jaissle's options. A wobbly defensive line and misfiring forwards may need to be rotated, but the imbalance in midfield seems just as pivotal.

October 07 Sent to Coventry... NUFC back in Premier League action
It's been 84 years... OK, it's only been two and a bit weeks, but it feels like an age since the last Premier League game.
In that time, Lewis Hall has established himself as England's first-choice left back and Newcastle United have completely revamped the club badge (is this right? ed.) One thing is the same, though. TheLasses(TM) have retained their 100% record in WSL2.
This week also marks five years since the PiF-led takeover and we think about what that means going into a 'transitional' period under new manager Matthias Jaissle. Next up, Coventry.
Last few live show tickets here.

September 30 Knox Knox: ‘Matty Ice’ hosts NUFC charm offensive
It's the international break but the number one story in football, nay sport, is a Premier League story, and it's not good. Luckily, it's not Newcastle, but the whole division will be affected by the fall-out from the Manchester City 'financial doping' decision which leaked this week.
Closer to home, there's been a bit of a charm offensive from NUFC. Manager Matthias Jaissle, or "Matty Ice" as CEO David Hopkinson has christened him, hosted the press at 'The Knox', aka the training ground. We're running out of 'inverted' "commas".
Meanwhile, 'The Lasses' (TM) scored four for the second week running at 'the GIS' and maintained their 100% record in 'WSL2'.
Last few tickets still available for our 'live show' at the Gosforth Civic Theatre on October 9th.

September 22 Flirting with Jaissle (ball): Vertical Newcastle, expectation and reality
The Daily Telegraph's Luke Edwards stands in for George Caulkin as we reach the first international break of the season, and it's a long one!
Luckily, Newcastle got their first home win of the Premier League season by beating Hull City on Saturday and the squad can enjoy their three week hiatus from the top half of the table.
But, is the positive start sustainable? We checked in to Opta's excellent website, https://theanalyst.com/, and found some interesting stuff (with the enormous caveat that it's far too soon to form any concrete opinions).

September 20 Matchday: Hull (h), the kids are alright
Newcastle made a lightning start as they looked to correct the wrongs of Monday night's humbling at Leeds. 2-0 up in the first ten minutes, they had chances (including a penalty) to put the game to bed by half-time.
However, as young legs tired, a resolute Hull pulled one back and made the closing stages a nerve-shredding affair. Taylor and Chris review the finer details.

September 15 Newcastle battered at Leeds: panic stations?
Monday night was officially chastening for Matthias Jaissle and his young Newcastle United squad as Leeds gave them the full Wetherby Whaler treatment.
With quite a few injuries already on the books, fresh ones were deeply unwelcome and it will be very interesting to see what the manager does for the visit of in-form Hull this weekend.
The Lasses(TM) remain unbeaten, though, thanks to Kath McGovern's first Newcastle goal away at Bristol City; good start, there. And, Jacob Whitehead did us proud in the GNR alongside Peter Reid!

September 09 Newcastle vault Millwall into Carabao 4th Round
Matthias Jaissle named a near-full-strength team for the Carabao Cup third round tie at Millwall and, with the opponents suffering an injury crisis, smooth passage was expected... you be the judge.
Meanwhile, the team of senior executives who lead the club have been meeting a contingent of the press. Under discussion, the recent transfer window which saw a raft of changes in the squad (and one manager), as well as the financial impact of the business done.
The Lasses (TM) opened their WSL2 campaign with a relatively comfortable 2-0 win at home to promoted Wolves.

September 05 Matchday: Bournemouth (h), a glass half and half a glass
Newcastle United, even when they are flying, don't tend to beat Bournemouth, so perhaps a draw should be viewed as a positive result. Certainly, with Marco Rose's Cherries swarming us in the first half, many would have taken a point.
But, is there a fragility to NUFC in the defensive third, especially in central areas? And, can we get Fernandez-Pardo and others properly up to speed to maintain the momentum from the good start to the new Premier League season.
NUFC's women get their WSL2 campaign underway on Sunday with the visit of Wolverhampton to the Gateshead International Stadium. New skipper Rachel Mclaughlin sat down to discuss settling in the area and aiming for promotion.

September 02 Terminal Velocity: NUFC Transfer Deadline Review
Pod on the Tyne brings you an exhaustive review of Newcastle United's transfer business on Premier League deadline day.
A few weeks ago, fans were tearing their hair out with Bruno Guimaraes set to follow Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali through the exit door and only Ewen Jaouen coming in.
Today, things feel very different. Matthias Jaissle has replaced Eddie Howe and is unbeaten in his first three games in charge. Lille's Belgian forward Matias Fernandez-Pardo has just become the club's eighth senior signing.
Have NUFC successfully un*****ed themselves?
