The GAME: The game was televised and the crowd was hopeful. Very much so since Stoke are having a good run at the moment and the Magpies aren't that difficult to play at home against. Stoke took the initiative and tried to break the deadlock early.
Delap had some dangerous throws that reached Shawcross two times and Ab Faye at one time, but none resulted in a leading goal. Instead it came in the 28th minute after a Lawrence corner. Beye tried to get the ball away for another corner during some intense Stoke pressure, but the ball flew right into the back of the net. The Potters were in the lead and Delilah echoed around the stadium. Two Newcastle players were geting yellow cards since thay had some sort of an internal dispute at the end of the 1st half.

In the second half Newcastle began a different way of playing. They always had at least two forwards almost in an off side position. So it wasn't a total surprise when the referee at one of those occasions said play on... and Owen could pass the keeper and equalise in the 66th minute. Very suspicious! For many minutes it looked like this was one of those rare draws. But in the 87th minute Fuller returned from the grave or something and snapped up a back pass and made it a victory. Celebration and almost a yellow card after taking off his shorts during that celebration!
