Aston Villa vs Newcastle United

1. 95'

   You look at the pitch and see Owen, Viduka, Duff, and Martins and wonder how on earth Newcastle ended up in this position. Utter mismanagement of the club is a huge factor I feel but ultimately the players haven't shown anywhere near enough. The future looks bleak for the Toon I'm afraid. On the bright side, this might at least bankrupt Mike Ashley. I hope the man is happy with this mess that he's made. What a clown.

2. 95'

   Alan Shearer looks completely gutted as the tears flow in the stands. The story of today has been the story of the season - Newcastle just haven't been good enough. They went out with a whimper in the end, befitting a chaotic season in which decisions at the top have ultimately sealed their fate.

3. 95'

   Emile Heskey wastes time in the corner as the clock runs down on Newcastle's Premier League stint. The full time whistle goes and Newcastle United have been relegated from the top flight.

4. 94'

   David Edgar is sent off for hauling down Ashley Young and that should be that.

5. 93'

   Owen miscontrols an Ameobi pass and gets the last touch so Villa have the throw.

6. 92'

   Enrique crosses this time and Ameobi heads over the bar. A difficult chance but true to form it never looked like creeping in. Taylor is up front now too.

7. 91'

   Well, is it time to start pointing the finger? I'm going for it, so Mike Ashely take a bow. You have decimated a once proud football club.

8. 90'

   Four minutes added as Ameobi blasts a volley over the bar. I can't take much more of this.

9. 89'

   This is looking very grim for Newcastle now. They look knackered and can't get anywhere near the ball.

10. 88'

    John Carew comes off to a great reception. Sidwell comes on in his place.

11. 87'

    Iain Dowie talks tactics with Shearer but Big Al looks utterly disinterested. He knows it is down to fate now.

12. 86'

    Ameobi deomnstrates how utterly useless he is by shooting when Martins was well placed. His shot went miles over the bar you'll be gobsmacked to hear.

13. 85'

    Enrique swings in a cross and Friedel is slow on the uptake but the ball flies just wide.

14. 84'

    Chelsea are 3-1 up at Sunderland, but they are safe now anyway. Reo-Coker is on for Petrov.

15. 83'

    The problem with having three up front is that you surrender possession so easily in other areas of the field.

16. 82'

    David Edgar gets booked for hauling down Ashley Young.

17. 81'

    Our commentator Martin Tyler has a dig at Newcastle's fans for not shouting their hearts out. They are paralysed with fear for God's sake man.

18. 80'

    Now Young goes on a mazy run and blazes a shot over.

19. 79'

    Carew has just missed an open goal from four yards out! Agbonlahor makes a fool of Enrique and crosses, Taylor slips and Carew only had to get a purposeful touch on it to score but he missed it!

20. 78'

    I'm going to stick my neck out say there'll be another goal in this game. Which way it goes, I've no idea.

21. 77'

    Ameobi wins a header but it goes out for a goal kick. Where's the passion lads?

22. 75'

    Viduka makes way for Ameobi.

23. 75'

    Villa change first though as Heskey comes on for Gardner.

24. 74'

    Enrique looks for Martins down the right but the ball is too long. Oh joy, Shola Ameobi looks like he's coming on.

25. 73'

    I don't think Owen has touched the ball yet. Oh, now he has.
