Newcastle Quotations

I was a film editor for eight years before I made my first feature, 'Dog Soldiers.' I am from Newcastle upon Tyne, in the northeast of England.

I always wanted to be a filmmaker and became one through sheer single-mindedness. I came to filmmaking from a background in graphic design. I went to film school at Newcastle Polytechnic.

There is no logical reason why Newcastle haven't won a major domestic trophy for more than 50 years. Success breeds success. I think it's much more difficult to break a cycle of success than it is to break a cycle of failure and Newcastle are a good example of that.

When it came down to Real Madrid or Newcastle there was no question in my mind. I want to play football. I love the Premiership - I've missed it while I've been away.

We knew they needed rest to recover but the problem that gave us was they were all missing the Newcastle game.

There was a big possibility that I would have had to leave Newcastle had Ruud Gullit stayed as manager.

My hopes for Newcastle are the same as they were before Bath,

Obviously I'm very disappointed for Michael. It's very bad luck for him and for Newcastle United.

Obviously Newcastle is no longer in there which has got to be a good sign for us. But we still have to go through the process and sit down with Matt.

Newcastle played quite defensively, but we had to keep playing and get through in the last 20 minutes, and we managed to do it.

Newcastle is one of the best clubs in England. They are a good, ambitious team and that is very important for me. I am looking for another good job with a club who has ambition.

Newcastle I liked; I now hate it. It just looks like this thing is in trouble.

Newcastle girls are all dogs. England is full of them.

Newcastle fans love centre forwards and Michael is a fantastic goal-scorer. He's someone we would love to build the team around and we hope he can help us bring success to the club.

Newcastle appealed to us for many different reasons.

I am sure that he will score many goals for Newcastle and England at the World Cup. He knew that he was not going to play much and he had to leave. His transfer will be good for him. Newcastle are a great club, a sleeping giant who are going to wake up.

I feel this summer we've signed some top-class footballers for Newcastle United to add to some great players we already have at this club,

I feel good, I have a place in the Newcastle team and I am scoring goals -- what else do I have to do to get my place back?

I got a kick on my calf after four minutes in Sunday's Premiership game with Newcastle and now the calf is like a dead leg,

He first came to our attention when he was at school in Newcastle and we've kept tabs on him ever since.

He'll get goals here, ... I am absolutely delighted. He was our first choice. And we've got him. We've bought an upfront, honest guy who is also a top class player. The dressing room at Newcastle United will be even stronger. We have really done the business today.

Owen is a class striker, with international pedigree who has scored goals consistently since turning professional. Punters seem to have grasped this fact and Newcastle may just have made a very good late buy as long as they can provide him with the service.

Our plans were to bid for the player (Rooney) in summer 2005, but Newcastle United's bid and Everton's subsequent interest in selling him, forced us to accelarate our plans or risk losing him,

I still think he will be glad he joined Newcastle in a few months,

That was a job well done. We've swept them in the league, but with Newcastle beating Belfast it makes the way we played in Nottingham all the worse.

Most of the corporate money in Newcastle goes to the Knights.

Michael Owen is one of the best goal-getters around today, ... It would be a fantastic signing for Newcastle if we were to manage it, but we have not done it yet.

We've got this place in Newcastle and we thought we'd invite bands to come up and why not do some collaboration? Normally we pick them up from the station, whisk them to our rehearsal space, and just start recording. It's a 12-hour process, and after 12 hours the track should be done, completed and mixed.

There is nothing in my Newcastle contract about not playing for Peru .

We have a contract with Brian Smith, Newcastle has a contract with Michael Hagan, we want Brian here for the year. That's what the players want. They're keen to have a great year for themselves firstly, and secondly for Brian Smith.

Bringing Michael to St. James' Park will rank alongside the signing of Alan Shearer as my proudest moment at Newcastle United.

Even the Newcastle fans were having a chuckle, they couldn't believe it was a sending-off.

The wins against Melbourne away and Newcastle away were games we had to win to keep us in contention and we got the result. The same happened last week (in Perth) - we had to win and we got the result. When we know it's our last chance, we tend to play a lot better.

It was a calculated risk to play them. And that cause the Newcastle need to rearrange the new group in the match.

As long as it makes Michael Owen happy then it is good news for England. Newcastle is a great club and he will get to play a lot.

It's a frustrating time for me but hopefully that time is about to end and I'll be able to play for Newcastle soon.

I told him during the game to calm down, and at the end we also talked. The message on his shirt was for his young son and his family, and he has told me that he wishes to say sorry to the Newcastle fans. He hopes it is not a problem.

It's looming as one of the great matches of the season so far. The anticipation here in Newcastle is enormous.

The next England Manager betting has been very quiet in the last few days, as punters waited for a possible announcement from Newcastle but whatever way you look at it, it's clear that O'Neill is top of everyone's shopping list.

I'm pretty focused on this, I will just think about Newcastle when it comes,

I have to admit that a shiver runs down my spine when I see Newcastle struggling at the moment,

He's someone who can become a legend with Newcastle United fans,

The derby games are the best ones, ... I always remember beating them at St James' in 1999. It was pouring with rain and we were drenched but very, very happy. Kevin Phillips popped one in the top corner and we were singing 'Can we play you every week?' The Newcastle fans were fuming.
