Anyone Worried About Relegation?
There is a stench hanging in the air at St James's Park like a post curry and ale fart in a lift. It is the over-powering stench of fear, greed, rebellion and frustration and it is so foul it could even be enough to knock Newcastle United out of the Premier League.
The word crisis is one of the most overused in sport reporting, but it is all too apt for the Magpies. First comes a problem, then the turmoil, then the crisis and eventually the disaster.
If Kevin Keegan's row with Derek Llambias was the problem, the turmoil was the failed reconciliation attempts which followed. The crisis is the shambles of a football club we now see and which has suffered three successive Premier League defeats as meek and timid as Bambi taking his first steps.
