Newcastle United sold St James' Park to themselves. 🔲 Arrangement led to first profit since Saudi-led takeover 🔲 Joined Big Six in topping £100m of annual commercial revenue 🔲 Operating loss hit a club record £109.4m Newcastle's 2024-25 filings show that ownership of the stadium and adjacent land now belongs to another PIF-owned company. @CWeatherspoon_ and @ChrisDHWaugh analyse what it all means. nytimes.com/athletic/71576…




@ChrisHa57913939 I’m told he wanted to play on Sunday to help the team — but the decision was taken out of his hands as he wasn’t ready.


🗞️ Eddie retains the support of Ross Wilson and David Hopkinson. The hierarchy appreciates him 'fronting up' to fans, but the message is clear: the current 12th-place standing is unacceptable. It's a 'crossroads,' not the end of the road. There is internal concern over Howe's rigidity. The failed experiment of playing Nick Woltemade in midfield has raised questions. The board expects Eddie Howe to adapt his system to the players, not the other way around. @MsiDouglas | #NUFC









Okay... uncomfortable conversations need to be had now. And not just because of tonight but this season as a whole. So from tommorow I'm restarting the "managers i'd look at to replace eddie howe". 👀 I've always loved Howe but he's proven he's given all he can. #NUFC ⚫️⚪️


This day in Newcastle History- It was 10 years ago and the last time we played Sunderland at St James Park. Mitrovic rescued a point for us and I still remember the absolute Roar and relief of seeing that Mitro Goal go in. Who else was at the game and can remember the day.



Julian Nagelsmann on Nick Woltemade struggling at Newcastle and being converted into a midfielder: "Nick is a very pleasant guy who exudes a lot of positive energy. He's undoubtedly going through a tough time, but that's normal. He's done well for us. He can start, but also come on as a substitute because he has an unorthodox style of play. I think being here with us will help him. He's often playing very deep for Newcastle now, and when he plays as a holding midfielder, he has a lot of distance to cover to get to the goal. He's not a counter-attacking striker who runs at 36 km/h. I can promise you he won't be 80 meters away from goal for us. He won't play in those kinds of games. I rate him highly as a player and as a person. It's normal, new culture, new league, new city. He also needed time at Stuttgart. I have confidence in him. Everything will be alright"
