BR - Newcastle United are currently third in the Premier League.
Yes, you read that correctly. Newcastle, the Magpies of St. James' Park, are higher in the table than Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool after beating Stoke City 3-1. That is not a typo, and I am as astounded as you probably are.
We will take them seriously if they are still where they are now in the table after there next 4 games against Everton, Man City, Man Utd then Chelsea.
I'm a fan but the squad is not geared towards competing seriously at the business end of the season. There's no real depth to cope with injuries or loss of form but gee this great start makes a welcome change.
