David McFarlane Salutes King Kev

After I’d all but written off his chances of turning Newcastle around, King Kev is finally delivering the goods. Some excellent performances over the past few weeks have seen the Magpies begin to flirt with the top half of the table – which would have sounded pathetic at the start of the season, but now sounds absolutely fantastic.

The players seem to have their belief in their abilities back, which is a key factor in the recent turnaround. A player who is short on confidence and doubting whether he’s good enough is about as useful as a one-legged man in an arse kicking contest. To see that the Messiah has even managed to get Joey Barton performing half-decently is enough to make a grown man cry (almost).

Although Newcastle drew 0-0 with Portsmouth yesterday, it wasn’t as though they turned up looking for a draw – quite the opposite, in fact, as Mickey Owen could quite easily have won the game if it hadn’t been for the imposing figure of David James in the Pompey goal.

This change in fortunes highlights one thing I’ve thought for a while now though – if you have belief in your own abilities, you can achieve anything.

If you ever feel down and in need of a pick-me-up, just remember one thing – it could be worse, you could be Titus Bramble.

Goodbye.
