Eddie Howe's Europe-chasing Mags have a crucial period coming up, starting with the last home game of the Premier League season as an unsettled Brighton travel to St James's Park.
Chris is worryingly confident, but with Anthony Gordon winning pens all over the gaffe and potential starts for returning players like Pope, Joelinton, and Miggy Almiron, you can maybe understand where he's coming from.
There's an update on the club's pursuit of a new sporting director. It seeems we are down to the last two candidates, with Dougie Freedman rumoured to be the front-runner... and, we reminisce about Ne ..read more

A mellow bank holiday episode for you today, one that follows the most beautiful result in football; namely, a routine away win.
Callum Wilson scored the opener and lead the line with zeal as Gareth Southgate watched on, so inevitably Chris has decided to write about the prospect of him being sold!
And, it was 7 up for Sean Longstaff, and twenty's plenty for Isak (goals) and Gordon (goal contributions) in the Premier League this season. Roll on Europe*!

We're taking a trip down memory lane today, inspired by Eddie Howe's goal-tastic Mags, who are on course to become the most prolific scorers in Newcastle's Premier League era.
Howe takes charge of his 100th league match as Newcastle manager this Saturday at Burnley, his former home and the team he first beat with the Toon.
And there's a fairly eclectic round-up of new stories, with plenty going on behind the scenes both football-related and further afield.
HOST: Taylor Payne
WITH: George Caulkin and Chris Waugh
PRODUCER: Ollie Bellwood

When you win 5-1 and, in doing so, beat the Premier League record for goals scored against one opponent in a season. When your star striker and record signing scores for the 7th consecutive home game, matching all bar your club's legendary goal hero. When your other striker reaches a Premier League tally second only to that self-same legend.
When those things happen, you should be ecstatically happy, right? Well, we are happy, very much so. But, we also feel a strange sense of fragility, having allowed our opponents, bottom of the league and staring relegation in the face, the run of our stadi ..read more

None of the podcast team were at Selhurst Park on Wednesday night, which in hindsight feels like a merciful stroke of luck after Eddie Howe's Spurs-destroying Mags turned to jelly in the face of an excellent Crystal Palace side.
So, what exactly happened? Was it the tactical plan (which had worked so well at home against Tottenham), was it the execution from the players, or was it the shortage of options Howe had to mix things up.
As it is, we're hunting high and low for positives. Maybe Callum Wilson's return, Sheffield United at home next. Donnez moi un break, Rodney!

We're suffering from football cold turkey this Monday morning; The Lasses (TM) did play on Sunday, but they were held to a goalless draw away at Halifax having sealed the league title a week earlier.
Eddie Howe's Resurgent Mags resume hostilities at Crystal Palace on Wednesday night after an eleven day break. It's virtually impossible for them to achieve back-to-back Champions' League campaigns but the other European competitions are looking very attainable.
We've a quick update on a frustrating development for our riverside neighbours Gateshead, and various other bits of nonsense in this comp ..read more

After our epic effort on Monday, everyone is suffering the effects of adrenaline withdrawal. Everyone except George's mam, that is, and Monday's star performer returns to get us off to a flyer.
We're scraping the barrel of Chris's new weekly Newcastle United Q&A, with second-rate questions about squad strengthening and pre-season, PSR (of course) and potential sales!
Eddie Howe's men have a week off and The Lasses (TM) have already won the league, so George has been hunting for inspiration elsewhere and found it! North-East actress Catherine Dryden drops by to tell us about her latest gig ..read more

It's an epic edition of PotT with no apologies from us as we've already bumped as much news to Thursday as we possibly can after a weekend most football fans can only dream of!
Becky Langley and Newcastle United Women are the champions of FAWNL Premier Northern Division. It's their second title, and promotion, in as many years and they will be playing Championship football next season. George was at Kingston Park to cheer them home.
Meanwhile, Newcastle's men thrashed Spurs at home for the second season running to keep alive their slim hopes of a repeat campaign in the Champions League. Watche ..read more

It's another big weekend for Newcastle United with Ange Postecoglu's Tottenham looking to defy an interesting pattern among teams to win at St James's Park this season, and Huddersfield Town rounding off a punishing eight-day spell by trying to stop Becky Langley's women from sealing back-to-back league promotions.
But, there are a few off-pitch matters to catch up on as well. Joelinton's contract negotiations are picking up pace, so it looks like he's staying on. Great, but prompts the painful question: if you have to bring in money through player sales, which of our current squad would you c ..read more

Are Eddie Howe's sh1thousing Mags back? After an abominable start at Craven Cottage, Newcastle 'keeper Martin Dubravka took an 'injury timeout', much to the annoyance of Marco Silva, and Howe read the riot act to his charges.
After that, things steadily improved and, despite a controversially disallowed goal, Bruno Guimaraes saved the day in his 100th appearance for the club. Anderson and Barnes also impressed from the bench again, and it was our first PL clean sheet away from home since beating Sheffield United 8-0 in September.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Channel, Jacob Whitehead too ..read more
