Newcastle United striker Alan Smith has urged his team-mates to start showing their mettle after Saturday's 1-0 defeat by Blackburn. The Magpies are without a win in seven games and now sit just three points clear of the relegation zone. Smith told BBC Radio Newcastle: "It is a time where we have to stand up and be counted, go out in front of 52,000 people and prove our worth. "We've got to show to everyone that we want to fight for the cause." The 27-year-old has already experienced relegation during his career, with Leeds United in 2004, and is aware of how quickly Newcastle could be sucked in if results do not improve. He said: "It's getting tight but you always knew it would do. We looked at our home games as ones that were winnable, and one was against Blackburn. "We've deserved criticism on occasions this season and we're all big enough to accept that. "It's up to us as a team, as players, and as people to sort that out."

People that say "Pacific" when they really mean "Specific".

Any man found using one of those flippy open pouch style wallets.

Here's a few that I believe should deserve instant termination: Anyone caught wearing a bluetooth headest outside of a car Anyone found wearing a brick sized mobile phone on their belt in a black leather case Anyone that takes more than 30 seconds to use a cash point.

to be fair, Gol's probably fucked him

More concerned about his wallet than the club's future, get rid.

Aye the Royal Mail is shocking these days.

Newcastle chairman Chris Mort has insisted that the board are 100% behind manager Kevin Keegan. Newcastle are just three points off the bottom three and Mort said that there is no danger that Keegan will turn his back on the club a second time. "The board is 100% behind Kevin, and there is no doubt or worry that he will walk away," Mort told BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek. "He's come into a club that wasn't playing well and was playing poorly and the results reflected that and it was always going to be difficult to turns things around. "Clearly he wants to turn the results around and that is what he has come back to do, but it will take time." Keegan is in his second spell at the club having left St James' Park in 1997. He replaced Sam Allardyce in January but has struggled to get his tenure at Newcastle off to a decent start. But Mort says that despite their woeful results Keegan is happy to be back at St James' Park. "He is enjoying being back at Newcastle and the city is enjoying having him back," said Mort. "I'm sure when things turn around on the pitch he'll thoroughly enjoy being back at Newcastle." Mort also quashed suggestions that Keegan had been unhappy with the appointment of assistant manager Chris Hughton. Hughton was appointed assistant boss last week and Mort confirmed that it was solely Keegan's decision. "Kevin came to me and asked if we could appoint Chris," said Mort. "He made the first call to Chris and had full knowledge of it. It was Kevin's lead, Kevin's suggestion and he was keen for it to happen." With Newcastle struggling on the pitch, it had also been rumoured that owner Mike Ashley was ready to walk away and sell the club. But Mort says that Ashley is perfectly happy at St James' Park and isn't thinking of selling up. "Mike has never tried to sell the club," said Mort. "People have called us and asked us if we were interested in selling the club and the answer is always no. "Mike is the owner of the club and he is very happy to be the owner and is not encouraging me to sell the club he still enjoys his Saturday football, obviously he'd enjoy it more if the results were better. "He gets on with Kevin very well and still enjoys being at Newcastle."

Steven Taylor fears for his Newcastle United future after warning he will not be 'mucked about' regarding a new contract. The England Under 21 international is keen to stay at St James' Park and extend his current deal beyond 2009. But he admits he may have to consider his options at the end of the season, if discussions have not been initiated by the club. The defender does not blame manager Kevin Keegan for the situation, instead suggesting the board do not rate him as a player. Concerned "I have heard nothing at all about a new contract," Taylor told the Sunday Mirror. "It is up to the chairman to offer me one, but the longer it goes without any feedback the more concerned I'm becoming. "I've lived all my life on Tyneside, come up through the youth system and have a great relationship with the Newcastle fans. There is no other club I want to play for. "Kevin Keegan has been fantastic to me since he came in. I love playing for him, but I know he has had a lot of other things on his mind since he came back. I understand that. "But I don't think this is down to him. It has to be sorted out by the people upstairs. There has been a lack of contact. My dad has been mucked about. Meetings have been cancelled. Joke "I have been mucked about in the past and have kept my mouth shut. For things to have dragged on this long is a joke. "I get on great with Kevin, but I think it is the people upstairs who don't rate me. I won't be mucked about. I just want this sorted out. "The longer I hear nothing from the club the more I fear they want to sell me. "If there is no offer on the table by the summer then I will have no choice but to look at my options."

I've done the BBC predictor and trying to be as realistic as possible with our fixtures and I've got us finishing 12th on 40 points, my bottom 4 was: 17th - Wigan - 29 points ----------------------------------- 18th - Bolton - 28 points 19th - Fulham - 26 points 20th - Derby - 11 points. I hope I'm right.

KEVIN KEEGAN watched in horror as his Toon revolution hit a new low and admitted he is now in a relegation dogfight. Yesterday's 1-0 home defeat to Blackburn means Keegan is still searching for his first win since taking over from Sam Allardyce. And he declared: "Football can be cruel. It is easy to bayonet the wounded and that's what is happening to us. We are not safe by any means." Keegan admits Newcastle are facing RELEGATION after yesterday's disastrous 1-0 home defeat by Blackburn. Keegan has yet to win a game since taking over from sacked Sam Allardyce on January 16 and Newcastle are now just THREE points from the Premier League drop zone. And Keegan confessed: "We must get around 37 to 40 points — but I can't be sure about that. We are not safe by any means." The Toon have just 28 points and Keegan's six League games in charge have brought just two points. Striker Michael Owen missed FOUR glorious chances before Rovers won the game in the 90th minute when sub Matt Derbyshire banged in the winner. Keegan added: "Football can be cruel. It's incredible that we lost that game. "It was bad enough at 0-0 but it was a real body blow to lose at the end like that. "We played some really good stuff and should have been two up at half-time. After that we created more chances but just couldn't finish the moves off. "Michael came in to the dressing room and held up his hands and said: ‘Sorry guys, I should have scored.' "He won't go into hiding, that's for sure. On another day he could have had a hat-trick but not today. Sharp "Actually I have been thinking Michael is really sharp. I said so before the last England game and he showed today just how he gets into all those great positions. "We could have been talking about a great performance. "But at least we created something for him and on another day the ball will end up in back of the net. "However, today we got caught with the sucker punch. "Blackburn have stolen three points today but that's the way football is. We must not allow this to become a blow to our confidence. "Since I've come in we have tried to focus on the good things. But we know we've got some little problems. "The players definitely didn't deserve this but now I've got to pick the lads up for our next match, against Liverpool at Anfield. "I can genuinely say that if we play like we did today from now until the end of the season we won't have a problem. "We limited Rovers to a couple of chances but at end of day we have been beaten. "Maybe we were naive in our willingness to try and win the game and got caught out. "But it was through genuinely trying to take all three points. "In the end I am disappointed but I can't be too hard on the players. "For the first time we played at St James' Park like a team should at home." Keegan, rival boss Mark Hughes, both benches and a dozen players were all involved in an ugly 81st-minute scrap. It all started when Newcastle thought they had won a throw-in but referee Rob Styles wrongly awarded it to Blackburn. Toon star Habib Beye had the ball but Morten Gamst Pedersen tried to get it off him. The Toon star grabbed him by the throat, sparking a scuffle at which point players from both sides piled in. Both managers and coaching staff jumped off the bench to separate the warring teams before Stiles booked Beye and Pedersen. Hughes said: "Beye took exception to Pedersen trying to take the ball off him and grabbed his throat, which is why everyone else piled in. "I just felt it was all very unnecessary." However the Welshman had no sympathy for Newcastle as his side made more headway towards Europe. Crucial He added: "I think Newcastle had 14 corners but not one of them was crucial. "The result was a little bit harsh on Newcastle but at this stage of season I am only interested in our results and I am delighted we got the job done. "Our keeper Brad Friedel made a couple of crucial saves for us but Steve Harper also got in a couple of good blocks for them. "I always felt that this was a game we had to win if we want to get anyhere near the European place we want. "We've a decent record in the North-east and very rarely get beaten. "We seem to come up the road and get three points."
