3,550 - Days Since NUFC Last Defeated Arsenal At St James' Park
As of Saturday, when the two sides meet on Tyneside in the Premier League, Newcastle will have failed to have beaten Arsenal at St James' Park since December 10th 2005 - or 3,550 days ago. On that day, Gilberto Silva was dismissed in the 57th minute for the Gunners for two bookable offences before Nolberto Solano popped up with a brilliant right-footed winner in the 82nd minute. Since then, in nine meetings in all competitions at St James' Park Newcastle have lost five and drawn four, including being defeated in each of the last three games.
