6. It Was May 24th When Newcastle Went Down In 2009... The Exact Date They Play West Ham On Sunday
The Premier League season always finishes around the middle-to-end of May - but the campaign does not always come to a close on the 24th of the fifth month. In fact, the last time that it did finish on May 24th was the 2008-09 season - the year in which Newcastle were relegated to the Championship. The Magpies face West Ham United on Sunday in their final fixture of the Premier League season - and, what a surprise, it falls on May 24th. Does that day bring bad luck to Newcastle? Or can they beat the drop this time?
