Newcastle 2014-15 Season Review - 20 Stats From The Campaign
20. 8 - Newcastle Did Not Record A Premier League Victory Until Their Eighth Match Of The Season
The disastrous second-half to the campaign makes it easy to forget the first part - when Newcastle were bottom of the Premier League having failed to win any of their opening seven Premier League matches. It was not until Gabriel Obertan popped up with a 71st-minute winner against Leicester City at St James' Park on October 18th that the Magpies finally managed to win a game - at the eighth time of asking.
