Newcastle manager Glenn Roeder
said:
"If people are honest with
themselves they did not expect that to happen today. I believe it
was only inside our dressing room that we believed we could come here
and win. People have looked at us and thought, at times away from home,
we're not hard enough. That gave them the motivation to come out
fighting." |

Match Report: |

Taylor and Milner celebrate the winner
in front of the Newcastle fans. |
As I was going to Lakes Entrance for the
long Easter weekend, I knew there would be no chance of me catching this
game on the radio or via any internet streams which might be out there.
So the sad fact that I felt relaxed about this, sums up perfectly where
our season has ended up.
For this game I was hoping for (at best) a slightly more committed
performance which would result in a draw. Far enough I would have
thought, I'll take that considering the way we were playing and our away
record this season.
However, in typical Newcastle United fashion except the unexpected, BANG
WHAT THE!?! We find ourselves getting an away win with, by all accounts,
a much more positive and committed Newcastle United side. Well would you
believe it eh?

A reshaped Newcastle United side which saw
Roeder finally realising Solano and Milner are our current best
partnership down the right hand side and Sibierski starting upfront in
place of the recently ineffective Dyer.
Our goals came from Martin(17) and Taylor(80) but we still required to
come from behind after Christian Nade(74) levelled for the home side and
Shay Given was his usual self making some vital saves, most notably deep
into injury time.
Overall a much needed victory to ease the gloom ever so slightly and
with a quick look at the table, we find ourselves up to 10th place on 40
points thanks to some favourable results. Europe anyone? Ok I'm
kidding...
