St. James Park Ready To Roar (Match Preview)

The Magpies will be welcoming Bolton Wanderers to St. James Park for the first ever home match in the new season.

The Magpies started the campaign brightly last weekend with a great display against holders Man. Utd will be up to the task against a resilient Trotters side managed by Gery Megson.

It will a great contest as our travelers too started off their new Premiership campaign brightly with a win against newly promoted Stoke City by 3 goals to 1.

We've expected the Magpies to come in with a win today, nothing less than that.

Expect another explosive performance from our new recruits Coloccini, Guthrie and Gutierrez although I believe Bassong will be introduced in the match at some point of time.

Howay the lads ..... I expect the Toon will be winning this one comfortably by a margin of 3 goals.

Our skipper, Micheal Owen, will be on the bench after passing a fitness test earlier in the week.
