The Geordies beat the unclean mackems by a score of 2-0 in Northeast England’s biggest (and only) derby.

Michael Owen scored both goals to continue his run of top flight play and further stake claim to his return to England’ national team. The lowly mackems have not defeated Newcastle since 2000 and today’s outcome secures their place as the 2nd (or 3rd if you count Boro) class team in the NE.

More importantly Newcastle were officially removed from the relegation battle and can now focus on building their team for next year in the top flight. Their performance over the past 6 matches and revitalization under Kevin Keegan has also shown that some interweb’s bloggers, who shall remain nameless, don’t know shit.

    Newcastle are trying pretty hard to sing Modric, the Croatian who helped set England sobbing out of Euro 2008.
