Since 1973-74, Newcastle have lost three FA Cup finals (1974, 1998, 1999), a League Cup final (1976) and finished runners-up in the Premier League on two occasions (1995-96 & 1996-97) – a extensive list of near misses. The Magpies would know a thing or two about their team being the bridesmaid rather than the bride. But to be frank, no one plays Football Manager to secure secondary honours – either domestically or in Europe, and no one would want to put that at the top of their CV. The pedants amongst you who frequent Newcastle’s Wikipedia honours section will rightly point out that the Magpies have indeed won domestic silverware by winning the Championship twice since 2009-10 and a European trophy in 2006, when beating Lillestrøm to pick up the defunct UEFA Intertoto Cup title. Now this might seem like low-hanging fruit considering new owners with seemingly bottomless pockets have arrived to the north-east in recent weeks ( eagerly awaits the in-game update), but the fact is Newcastle United just don’t win games – as Eddie Howe no doubt found out himself by glancing at this season’s table when taking the job, nor do they win trophies.
