womblemaster Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 article in sun. "Roeder was on his way into training when a fan told him the club had won its first piece of silverware since the Fairs Cup triumph in 1969." good job the fans are on the ball. noone at the club had the brains to work this out!

Martin Lol Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Sarcasm from the Mirror: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/tm_headline=finda-key-to-trophy-cabinet--%26method=full%26objectid=18272458%26siteid=94762-name_page.html FINDA KEY TO TROPHY CABINET! UEFA Cup draw...It's party time for Newcastle Toon get their hands on a cup at last Simon Bird GLENN Roeder has finally broken Newcastle's trophy drought and clinched...the InterToto Cup. In a moment that will make every Geordie weep (with pity), Scott Parker will hoist the trophy aloft at St James' Park. UEFA last night confirmed a plan to hand over the glittering honour before United's UEFA Cup last-32 tie against Belgian side Zulte Waregem on February 22. Advertisement The search is now on for the keys to the club's trophy cabinet. No open-top bus parade to mark the occasion has yet been scheduled. The unlikely news of silverware heading to the North East was broken to Roeder yesterday afternoon and he replied: "A cup is a cup." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicky Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 BBC and Sky Sports are picking up on the news Newcastle to lift Intertoto Cup Newcastle will collect their first trophy in 37 years when they are awarded the 2006 Intertoto Cup. Glenn Roeder's side are the winners as they are the last surviving Intertoto entrants in the Uefa Cup. "We will be very happy to receive it," said Roeder. "It would be disrespectful to consider it a lesser tournament, as some managers do." Uefa has revealed there is likely to be a presentation before Newcastle's next Uefa Cup home tie on 22 February. The trophy is Newcastle's first since the Fairs Cup in 1969. The Magpies won a two-legged tie against Lillestrom in July to go through to the qualifying stages of the Uefa Cup. Roeder added: "This is a little bit of a reward for the boys who had to come back on 26 June to play in the competition." The Magpies face Belgian side Zulte-Waregem in the last 32 of the Uefa Cup in February. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/newcastle_united/6185511.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mattywestall Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 at least its a start ........ even if its only the intertoto tongue.gif Uefa have confirmed that Newcastle United have officially won the 2006 InterToto Cup. The trophy means it is the first piece of silverware Newcastle have picked up since their Fairs Cup win in 1969 - although they did lift the Texaco Cup in 1975. Newcastle take the honour as they are the only side to have come through the InterToto Cup to still be in the Uefa Cup. "It's very likely there will be a ceremony and presentation before their next Uefa Cup tie at St James' Park," said a Uefa spokesman. Newcastle boss Glenn Roeder added: "Someone mentioned it to me at the gate. "I would imagine the lads will be pleased to receive it. It would be disrespectful to consider it a lesser tournament, as some managers do. "We will be very happy to receive the InterToto Cup. I would not want to say anything that would be unkind to it. A cup is a cup. "It's a little bit of a reward for the boys who had to come back on June 26 to play in the competition. "And don't forget we went from 14th to 7th between February and May last season to qualify. Now we have to move on. We have other important games in front of us."

Mick Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Didn't we ever win the Anglo-Italian Cup? Yes we did, but it hadn't been 30 odd years since our last trophy win so it wasn't such a piss take as it is today, I think we won it in '73 or '74'ish.

Yorkie Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Shame they're taking the mick, like i said earlier - we won it fair and square. Can't really blame them, i suppose. What's more of a shame though, is that Roeder doesn't regard it as a 'lesser tournament'. bluesigh.gif Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
