Cracking atmosphere again at the match, the free flags­ always help but the noise levels in our Gallowgate End­ was the second best this season. I can't believe­ Viduka has waited till the second last game of the­ season to produce a leader's perrformance. Too­ little too late for him? As we were walking to the­ ground we were passed by the 2 coaches of Boro fans,­ banging their windows and shouting obscenities and­ trying to spit out of the window. They drove past us­ after the game as we walked to our car, in complete­ silence..that was so sweet. We had the typical window­ lickers running towards the tv cameras to embarass the­ club after the match, saying that the Toon would be­ fighting for Europe next season. But for the real fans­ we are just happy tosee our team play with passion and­ pride again. I think we still need to beat Hull to­ avoid the drop butits possible if they play with that­ attitude. I hope Boro can somehow stay up but I­ don't think its possible. Unless the Makems­ continue their slump, which would makemy season..I­ would love it...love it..! SMB.

Taking off Owen - passed his best ; taking off Viduka -­ not 100% fit ; could hardly be descibed as inspiried.

Shearer made two inspired substitutions, can anybody­ remember Southgate making any in his whole time as Boro­ manager. Interesting if the three clubs West Brom, Hull­ and Boro go down they are all clubs who did not sack­ thier Managers. this season.

as a newcastle fan im thrilled that we are out of the­ bottom 3 and hoping for some thing from the next 2­ games but after that changes have got to be made a­ solid foundation on a manager thats there for the long­ haul and a base of young quality players ashley will­ have to spend or run along while hes still standing in­ the stands laughing with his pals he must be slowly­ goin grey at the thought of the money going down the­ swanny i agree butt, viduka, owen,duff should go but i­ havent got much time for enrique, coloccini, nolan,­ jonas, cacapa, geremi either and the 2 that wise­ brought in cisqo should have stuck to singing bout­ thongs lol and the loan guy who we have been payin all­ season and has been fit for half hours football what a­ joke. what about the players we talked about pre season­ gorkan inla and arda turan decnet internationals that­ arnt past there best

Well done Newcastle, sorry Boro, I really do hope you­ can both get six points out of the next two games and­ as a Sunderland supporter we can get two. All football­ supporters in the North East actually have a lot in­ common: we support, live for - love our teams to the­ end and I want all three to be in the top flight. What­ I cannot understand and I am sure you are the same, is­ why can the likes of Fulham, Stoke, Aston villa,­ Everton, Totenham, West Ham produce the goods. We have­ better support, better facilities spend a mountain of­ money at different times, and yet all three teams­ consitently underperform, I dont just mean this year,­ but over say the last 10 years. It may be a subject for­ a University disertation - why cannot North East teams­ bridge the gap to the top flight or nearly top flight?­ It would really be nice to just to miss out on a Uafa­ cup place or Champions league, instead of just missing­ out on religation. I know rambling on - but like all­ other north east supporters - hoping for better next­ season.
Shouting for you - Keith

cameron w do you have a big smile on your face today­ pal well done on beating the @#$% that is­ middlesborough mind you they achieved something before­ they went they f==ked up liverfools title challenge ha­ ha congrats mate hope they win the next two for you and­ we will kill hull for you last game ha ha

Iam so grrateful with the win that Newcastle has­ secured because I was not at all happy seeing the team­ relligated. I believe this win could be a turning point­ for Allan Shearer to inspire the team into more wins to­ pull them completely out from the mire.

howay the lads

Villa are already assured if their­ Europa League place -

foeyp You can tell your a blue nose because you cant­ see the facts staring you in the face and your easily­ offended. Benitez has it right Everton are a small club­ and the only reason Everton are not slugging it out at­ the bottom is in one word MOYES.

Further to my last comment If Newcastle dont get the TV­ revenue that being in the Premier league means and they­ do go down you only have to cast your mind back to­ Leeds how could the wage bill be maintained in the­ championship? I dont think Owen is past it but he is­ injury prone, and needs to be used sparingly after this­ season and for everything thats been said about Joe­ Kinear. at least he got rid of Insomnia for you !!­ watched him play at the weekend he was hopeless!! and­ letting Given go mid season may come back to haunt you­ big time. I hope that is not the case because i would­ much rather watch Newcastle at anfield than Hull!!!!!

as a life long newcastle supporter i have to say that­ after reading most of what other people are saying i­ think the general census is people want newcastle­ should stay up. however if we do we need to do a lot of­ things differently, OWEN out, Viduka out, Smith out,­ Duff out. Butt out and Barton well you guessed it or­ did you, Jail, newcastle are a big club and our­ support is second to none, if Newcastle are ever to­ win something our so called chairman needs to get­ longer arms and not so deep pockets. Lets not get to­ carried away with last nights terrific win it will mean­ nothing if we dont beat fulham who lest not forget will­ not be coming to make up the numbers they have europe­ in there sights as do villa, 2 hard games to finish­ off the saeson but its in our hands, one last thing­ for the makem who wants us to stay up PLEASE TELL ME­ WHEN DID YOU LAST TAKE SIX POINTS IN A SEASON OFF US­ YOU MUG.

Newcastle are now out of the bottom 3 on goal­ difference which at this stage of the season is­ unlikely to change. When it came to the crunch time and­ with Alan knowing he needed a win he made two subs­ which both scored to help win the game. This could be­ the turning point and might well save Newcastle, also­ Newcastle are a huge club they are one of the best­ attended grounds because it is a football city.

So many sour grapes oh here from so many outsiders!
Do­ you know what makes this result more pleasing?
The fact­ that it upsets you lot this much!!!
Oh i bet you all­ had your puerile posts already composed and ready to­ send.
I actually believe this could be enough, but­ let's make sure by giving it our all again against­ fulham on Saturday.
Masterful tactics, masterful­ substitutions and job done!
Deal with it and live with­ it - ha, ha, ha, ha!!!!!

Away the lads well done, and about time, what a hard­ job Alan has had, but someone had to do it.

i think one of the major problem with newcastle is­ michael owen who the club so much believe on. if­ newcastle want to go further i think they should do­ away with michael owen, mark viduka and believe on­ martins and others player,

jesus christ one win and all of a sudden shearer is a­ legend , a god, a saviour etc etc, what about all the­ other managers who manage 'one win now and­ then' are they all gods, legends etc etc
