From The Opposition Corner….. Newcastle

by

As we face the black and white stripes of Newcastle United today, we again spoke to our resident opposition fan, to get his views on the season ahead, as well as todays game.

One of both of these teams will have to surrenders their 100% record today, and with us finishing in 5th and 6th place last season, it is sure to be a close game.

The Toon will want to build on their 2-0 victory at the Bridge in May, whilst Chelsea look to win this fixture after failing to do so in the last four.

Today we face Wigan Athletic, The Latics, under the stewardship of Roberto Martinez, who was being sniffed at by the likes of Liverpool during the off season.

Wigan have always been known as a side to start slowly, but always seem to pull an escape out of the bag, no less than last season, as relegation loomed, they won 7 of their last 9 games to ensure survival, including 4 home games on the trot.

Chelsea play Newcastle United tonight, in a game that will go a long way to deciding whether either team will play in Europe next season. Just one point separate the two teams, and just three games remain.
                                                      
Of course, later in the month, should Chelsea triumph at the Allianz Arena, they will qualify for the Champions League anyway, meaning only the top three qualify for next years competition.
