Former Newcastle Coach Alan Pardey believes that despite not the best start, the club remains a contender for the championship title.

“Newcastle is gaining momentum, and with an attacker such as John Visa, can be even more dangerous in attack.

I am absolutely sure that the GAU team is applying for the title in the Premier League, “Pardey said Talksport.

Despite this, Newcastle ranks only eleventh in the standings of the Championship of England, winning only two victories in seven matches. In the next round, the team will play against Brighton.
