Newcastle Escape Relegation Zone
Newcastle have doubled their season victories with a win over West Bromwich. More importantly, the three points have lifted them out of the relegation zone - at least until after tomorrow nights games.
With four of the six bottom teams playing each other, Newcastle could find themselves at 17th tomorrow night, still outside the zone. However, a couple of drawn games and a win by Stoke against Sunderland and Newcastle could be back to 19th.
The win by Newcastle is more important than just the three points. Young Joey Barton, despite all the troubles so far this year, bounced back from suspension and three months in jail to score the first goal to set up Newcastle’s win.
One you get that winning feeling and the team starts to gel together properly, more wins will follow. What do you think? Is yesterday’s win the start of a mini-revival for Newcastle?
