Exclusive – FA Charge Newcastle 11

Following last night’s match at Ewood Park the Football Association have been quick to act.

They have charged Newcastle United with the theft of three points and Alan Pardew has indicated he will appeal on behalf of some of his players but has happily accepted that the rest will be banned for life.

Pardew; “I think the FA charge is a bit harsh, yes I’m at a loss as to how we scored two goals despite only having one shot, or how we made a useless Blackburn team look like world beaters everywhere on the pitch apart from in front of goal”.
