A little earlier than planned after some seriously inclement weather in Wimbledon, Taylor Payne runs the rule over the last seven days in NUFC-land.
It's been coming, but that doesn't offer much consolation after a pretty miserable Saturday afternoon at Craven Cottage. Eddie Howe's misfiring Mags finally lost a game despite the best efforts of Harvey Barnes, whose scoring stats have earned a remarkable comparison.
Where has our intensity gone, what is the strongest XI, and why are none of our big guns firing? Chris Waugh and Jacob Whitehead attempt to get to the bottom of a frustrating conundrum before Manchester City come calling.
No such problems for Becky Langley's Lasses. They got their first ever second-tier win, remain unbeaten, and face an already-struggling Portsmouth next. With Shania Hayles hitting the ground running, spirits are high.

Eddie Howe's Newcastle earned themselves another three Premier League points on Sunday with a performance at Molineux that would have had Erwin Schrodinger ordering several more boxes. Was it good, or bad, or both, or all three? Yes.
Whatever it was, we are now experiencing the club's best Premier League start since 1995 (we weren't bad back then), and Howe used the bench to great effect once again. What can we expect at Fulham? No idea, but we're strangely confident.
Nowhere near as confident, though, as Amy Andrews. She topped the scoring charts for Durham last season but very much has her sights set on bigger things, and that has to be good news for Newcastle's challenge in the Women's Championship this time round.

The lads are leggy; no, not Eddie's men, but our weary podcasters who are fighting DOMs and post-race bugs after the Great North Run.
But, we'll endeavour to bring you a balanced view of the last few days in Newcastle United, featuring the aftermath of a media briefing with new Sporting Director Paul Mitchell. It's fair to say it could have gone better.
The Lasses had clear channels of communication as they put on a solid showing in their first league game of the new season. How will they fare in the second tier? Pretty well, if this draw at fancied London City Lionesses is a true picture.
The club's next Premier League fixture comes at Wolverhampton, with Chris in attendance, and spirits should be high after a successful set of international fixtures for most of our participants.

What a week that was! The full podcast team assemble to discuss a crazy seven days during which Newcastle United's transfer plans came to nought amid rumours of a late (panicky?) tilt at Nottingham Forest winger Anthony Elanga.
That came after the lengthy pursuit of Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi was finally abandoned on deadline day. The club did sign a player from Palace, though, with Becky Langley bringing in Isabella Sibley from the WSL outfit before their first game of the new Women's Championship season.
Every Newcastle fan knows, when you're having a rough time of it, there's only one solution. Spurs at St James's Park. This wasn't quite the rout of the last two years, but Harvey Barnes continued his hot streak and Alexander Isak got off the mark for an uplifting 2-1 win to take Howe's men into the international break.

Taylor Payne is joined by Chris Waugh and professional Chris Waugh stand-in Jacob Whitehead for another weekly recap in the mad, mad, mad, world of Newcastle United.
We wanted a routine result at Bournemouth, but that's hoping against hope and we got another stressful, frustrating afternoon. However, Eddie Howe was able to fix several problems with his bench and a draw is not the end of the world.
There's also the encouragement of a return for Sandro Tonali, might he start the cup tie at Forest? And, of course, there's a transfer deadline on Friday with at least one major signing expected, if not guaranteed.

Taylor, George, and Chris are keeping a lid on their rage, much like St. James's Park after Ben Brereton Diaz bought Fabian Schar a red in Newcastle's Premier League opener against Southampton.
As it turned out, a show of extreme resolution from Howe's men - especially the three-man midfield featuring stand-out performer Joelinton - delivered three precious points and we head to Bournemouth without Chris in tow, obviously, but with a united squad and another week in the legs.
When is a bid not a bid? Schrodinger's transfer saga, and that's what it is, shows no signs of coming to a conclusion with Marc Guehi taking the field for Crystal Palace amid a sea of mis- and, probably, dis-information about a potential move to the Northeast.

There's a warm glow on the podcast this week after we announced another live date at the Gosforth Civic Theatre (tickets here: https://www.gosforthcivictheatre.co.uk/pod-on-the-tyne-live), and we're setting stress aside as we welcome the eve of a new Premier League season.
Newcastle United scored two more famous Sela Cup victories at differing stages of their pre-season prep, with Eddie Howe's men even earning a superfluous 4-0 win over Girona to boot! Alexander Isak continues to look a million dollars with his teammates chomping at the bit; Southampton beware...
Becky Langley's NUFC Women won't square up for Championship action until September, but they have recruited impressively, with one or two more to come. Add that to the talent already on Tyneside, and back-to-back-to-back promotions are under discussion.

Pod on the Tyne returns after our summer holidays, all except one straggler; no prizes for guessing who that might be...
It's been an incredibly busy break, so we catch up on everything that went on, and didn't go on, after the stressful PSR deadline, management changes, and several transfer deals, (with more in the offing!).
And there's a rundown of the pre-season tour of Japan, not just from our man in Tokyo, George Caulkin, but with an exclusive diary from inside the squad!

With Pod On The Tyne on their summer break, we bring you an episode first released on The Athletic FC Podcast looking into Newcastle United's mad dash to comply with PSR ahead of the June 30th deadline.
Chris Waugh is alongside Ayo Akinwolere and The Athletic's football correspondent David Ornstein to discuss how Newcastle found a way to balance the books as well as looking at what the situation is at St James’ Park for the rest of the summer transfer window?
Meanwhile, Taylor, George and Chris will be back with Pod On The Tyne at the start of August ahead of the start of the new Premier League season.

George and Chris take to the mic without the calming presence of regular host Taylor Payne, and it's a traumatic affair after Manchester United shocked their neighbours in the FA Cup final to deprive Eddie Howe's Newcastle of a place in Europe.
With the second leg of our post-season tour in Australia landing like a gnat on a windscreen, it's been quite a rocky week for the club; co-owner Amanda Staveley even took to Instagram to make an unusual apology.
But, what does it all mean for the future? Will the lack of European football have an immediate impact on management and planning. And, why are Rafa's 2017 Mags so hot right now?

Blood, sweat, tears... a seemingly unending slog with torn thighs, visceral noise, and extreme emotion. But, that's enough about Chris's breakfast...
Eddie Howe's Newcastle United, after one of the most arduous campaigns in the club's history, are currently in Australia playing back-to-back friendlies. But, with the league schedule done and dusted we can look back over a season of remarkable moments, a mountain of goals, and yes, some gut-wrenching defeats as well.
As we look to the future, there's optimism about where this team and NUFC Women are headed, even if we are relying on someone else to get us one more positive result. To be fair, though, it is Manchester City.

It's the hope that kills you, and former "World's Grumpiest Man" George Caulkin, made the fatal error of going to Old Trafford to report on Newcastle United with positive expectations.
Knowing they could, and perhaps should, win the game, Eddie Howe's team created their own downfall, albeit they got some assistance from the VAR unit (is their brief reign coming to an end?)
Was it missed chances or haphazard defending that cost us the game, and potentially a European place next season? Does it matter? Why are we here? Did you leave the iron on? Big questions, vague answers.

Newcastle's final home game of the season ended in a draw for Eddie Howe's men against Brighton. Slightly disappointing? Probably, but the home form overall has been pretty spectacular.
If they are to qualify for Europe, though, they'll have to take points on the road at Manchester United, where they've won one league game in 51 years, and at Brentford. Kieran Trippier and Dan Burn are confident, and so are we.
With a round-up of some awards news, congratulations to Gateshead, and a birthday to celebrate, it's a bright, breezy, spring edition of PotT!

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 Newcastle "flops" who have flourished elsewhere, after Joselu, (Joselu!) scored twice to send Real Madrid to the Champions League final!

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.

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 stadium for 45 minutes.
Eddie Howe's Newcastle have been a strange beast this season, but with lots of international visitors in attendance, we re-affirmed our ambition. Thanks to Wor Flags, the Swedish contingent, The Lasses, and Burn & Co., we're looking up the table again. Can we dream of fifth?

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 compact Monday morning edition.

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, starring in a one-woman show at the Theatre Royal about First World War munitions worker turned goal-machine Bella Reay.
