league form has been average. i currently lie 6th but many teams have games in hand over me. i couldnt complete my team until the day after my 3rd game and the defence was leaky until then.
newcastle 2 v 2 aston villa (owen, van der vaart)
portsmouth 1 v 4 newcastle (owen(3), van der vaart)
fulham 2 v 2 newcastle (johnson, owen)
i am very pleased with owen (5 goals in 3 games) and van der vaart. also modric has been ver very good.

slow and steady wins the race but yeah as long as you can maintain not losing the morale should improve, making you harder to beat
now finished september.
i forgot to mention before that a certain joey barton got sent off on his debut against aston villa. bloody typical.
up and down month. quite strange because i dominated liverpool and lost, deserved to be hammered by man utd and won, owned coventry in the cup and only won 3-2. arsenal was the only game that really had the right result.
liverpool 3 v 0 newcastle
league cup - coventry 2 v 3 newcastle (van der vaart, viduka, martins)
newcastle 1 v 0 man utd (van der vaart)
arsenal 1 v 1 (van der vaart)
i am quite happy with results. van der vaart has been the obvious hero but owen has gone quiet. i still lie 6th, 1 point behind 4th but having played a game more.
