Pod On The Tyne: an independent NUFC podcast
Oct 20, 2026 · 1 hr 4 min · 15 segments
Three Premier League defeats on the bounce now for Newcastle United and fans are quite quickly getting restless. Why have tempers started to flare already? There's no doubt we have big problems…
George CaulkinHostYes, a lot has been made of Big Dan Byrne being brought on for the second game in succession up front, and at the time it actually appeared to be against Aston Villa, Newcastle's best source of a potential goal, and that really sums them up.
They had one shot on target in the entire game, which came from Sven Bottmann, and lost 1-0 to Aston Villa in it.
Sub-pod display, Lasse's League Cup struggles continue with Sunderland defeat, George.
Yes, the time we are derby in early December has been moved to Sunday 2 o'clock kick-off, but what has also returned is that Sunderland fans coming to Tyneside rather than last year when they could get the metros or other forms of transport to the ground will have to be on club-sanctioned coaches to be able to get to the ground in so-called bubble conditions, and the allocation has also gone down by a few hundred for them, and it's been slammed by both Newcastle and Sunderland fans alike if this is going to be the precedent moving forward.

Well, I was going to say, but that's quite appropriate for this topic, subverting of tradition.
