Taylor Payne welcomes The Athletic's Newcastle United trio of George Caulkin, Chris Waugh, and Jacob Whitehead to another week's discussion, albeit not the most pleasant one we've had of late. For the first time this season, there was a slight sense of capitulation as Aston Villa ran roughshod over our worryingly passive Magpie men.

A different story on Sunday, though, as Becky Langley's NUFC Women took Bradford to task and boosted their goal difference in front of a big crowd at St James's Park. All great news after last week's injury time heartbreak and they are hot on Durham Cestria's heels in FAWNL Division One North.

Taylor Payne, George Caulkin, and Chris Waugh are basking in the glory of nine Premier League points in six days, thanks to the brilliance of Joelinton, Isak, and a re-energised Callum Wilson.

"Tough Guy" Eddie Howe had a great week as well and he'll be taking on Unai Emery's Aston Villa next Saturday. We preview that game, look ahead to a crucial St James's Park fixture for the women's team with Becky Langley, and consider the implications of Adam Crafton's exposé of government emails.

A slightly earlier show this week with Taylor Payne, George Caulkin, and Chris Waugh revelling in Newcastle's glorious win over Manchester United at St James's Park.

It finished 2-0, but that flattered the visitors who looked all at sea without Brazil captain Casemiro. We now face three consecutive away games, two of which are in London this week.

Taylor Payne previews the final stretch of Newcastle's epic Premier League season with George Caulkin, Chris Waugh, Jacob Whitehead, and special guest Andy Mitten.

Eddie Howe, Jason Tindall, and the boys have twelve games left needing only to replicate their form so far this season to finish in the top four. We look at their chances, starting with a detailed preview of the league fixture against Manchester United this Sunday, and we answer a few bonus questions left over from The Athletic's Newcastle Q&A earlier this week.

The gang's all here as Taylor Payne, George Caulkin, Chris Waugh, and Jacob Whitehead digest a terrific few days for Newcastle United.

Eddie Howe's men followed up their resolute win over Wolves with a dominant performance at Forest; the margin should have been greater, but Alexander Isak provided two moments of incisiveness and we go into the international break eyeing up third place in the Premier League.

Becky Langley's title-chasing women's team also gained six crucial points this week, three of which came in a 1-0 win over main rivals Durham Cestra. Onwards and upwards, we hope...

It's fair to say there's been a substantial sigh of relief this week as Taylor Payne analyses a vital Premier League win with Chris Waugh and Jacob Whitehead.

Eddie Howe made some big calls, not least resting top scorer Miggy Almiron, but Alexander Isak stamped his authority on the game and Newcastle overcame a Wolves fightback to clinch all three points and revitalise the Champions League chase.

Taylor Payne takes you through another week, at least we think it was another week, in the life of NUFC with the cream of North East football writing talent and Chris Waugh.

Manchester City followed the reds of Liverpool and Manchester by beating us 2-0, but never without a struggle; if only we could score a goal! Meanwhile, The Athletic's senior writer, George Caulkin, wonders what life would be like treading the boards and Jacob Whitehead is doing his best to shake off the unwanted jinx tag.

A tired Taylor Payne looks back over the debris of cup final weekend with The Athletic's Newcastle United correspondents, Chris Waugh and the accursed Jacob Whitehead.

One last cruel twist of the irony knife sees us heading to Manchester this weekend. City have returned to something like their best, so Saint-Maximin and co will have to conjure a performance at least as good as in our previous meeting at St James's Park.

Taylor Payne hosts the Pod on the Tyne Cup Final Preview! Joining him, The Athletic's Senior Writer George Caulkin and Newcastle correspondents Chris Waugh and Jacob Whitehead.

Nick Pope really put a spanner in the works with his red card against Liverpool on Saturday. It was a result to forget, even if we played OK, and the highlight was definitely Wor Flags.

But, with the Carabao Cup Final against Manchester United this weekend we're confident of a performance from the boys, and there's definitely a chance we'll be bringing silver to Newcastle!
