Away the lads – Remarkable | OneFootball

I keep reading about the ‘abysmal’ Newcastle United away record until very recent times.

Looking back, how does the Newcastle United away record actually look over more than 13 months?

Does the reality match the nonsense spouted by journalists and pundits?

These past 27 NUFC away games (all competitions), thirteen months worth, with the 3-1 victory at Southampton just the latest away victory.

The Newcastle United away record that has followed New Year’s day 2024:

Sunderland 0 Newcastle 3

Fulham 0 Newcastle 2

Aston Villa 1 Newcastle 3

Forest 2 Newcastle 3

Arsenal 4 Newcastle 1

Blackburn 1 Newcastle 1 (NUFC won on penalties)

Chelsea 3 Newcastle 2

Man City 2 Newcastle 0

Fulham 0 Newcastle 1

Palace 2 Newcastle 0

Burnley 1 Newcastle 4

Man U 3 Newcastle 2

Brentford 2 Newcastle 4

Bournemouth 1 Newcastle 1

Nottingham Forest 1 Newcastle 1 (NUFC win 4-3 on penalties)

Wolves 1 Newcastle 2

Fulham 3 Newcastle 1

Everton 0 Newcastle 0

Chelsea 2 Newcastle 1

Nottingham Forest 1 Newcastle 3

Palace 1 Newcastle 1

Brentford 4 Newcastle 2

Ipswich 0 Newcastle 4

Man U 0 Newcastle United 2

Spurs 1 Newcastle 2

Arsenal 0 Newcastle 2

Southampton 1 Newcastle 3

So these last five away games show five Newcastle United victories, scoring fourteen goals and conceding only two.

Can Eddie Howe and his players make it six away wins in a row at Birmingham…?

That Newcastle United away record over more than 13 months reads:

Played 27 Won 16 Drawn 3 Lost 8

The idea that the Newcastle United away record has been abysmal, not exactly backed up by the reality.

Eddie Howe and his players have won 59% of away matches in these 13+ months!

Whilst only 29% the NUFC away games have been lost in this period of time!!
