It ended Aston Villa 4 Newcastle 1. A game full of incident but in the end, not many (if any?) positive for United. A wicked deflection for the opening goal in the opening minute set the tone and whilst Newcastle equalised through Schar, there never really felt the conviction that the visitors were going to escape from this with a point (or more…). United’s run of six victories (all competitions) in a row coming to an end.

Dean Wilkins:“This looked our toughest remaining match and so it proved. “Villa deserved to win but the Aussie ref was useless as usual and fell for their clearly pre-planned systematic cheating, to try and get our players booked. Quite embarrassing how so many of them leapt into the air when barely touched, if at all.

It is exactly 19 years to the day since the final scoreline read Sunderland 1 Newcastle 4. Quite incredible that it is fully nineteen years since Alan Shearer’s very final match. The 17 April 2006 saw Shearer score in that last ever game, before then forced off with the injury that would prematurely end his career. Although only three Premier League matches of that season remained.

It ended Newcastle 5 Crystal Palace 0. A brilliant opening goal from Jacob Murphy after only 14 minutes as United dominated and looked set to take apart the oppositionHowever, despite totally outplaying the opposition, out of nowhere Palace got what looked a harsh penalty thanks to VAR. Nick Pope though superbly standing his ground and not falling for Eze’s stuttering run-up, then saving his poor final effort.
