[edit] Record For Joe Harvey & Kevin Keegan

Somebody should add upp the number of games played, then add up games won, drawn and lost.

I've put the records down for all the managers now, as well as their start and finsh dates. Bababoum 14:25, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removed section on Europe

Not really needed for the main article. Perhaps it could fit into a new article such as Newcastle United F.C. Seasons or Newcastle United F.C. in Europe. I've left the article below to maintain it and so it can be extended before being added to a more suitable article. Bababoum 19:37, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] UEFA Intertoto Cup winner 2006

We have to define what meaning of UEFA Intertoto Cup winner is.

There is two winners, Third Round winner and overall winner. The overall winner of UEFA Intertoto Cup 2006 is Newcastle.

Shall we discuss now.

Before a decision was made, the overall winner of UEFA Intertoto Cup 2006 still be here.

KyleRGiggs 11:19, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I'm a little confused - going by the explanation at the UEFA site, the competition ends after the third round, so there doesn't seem to be an official "overall winner". Unless I'm missing something and UEFA has a formula for picking one winner out of the eleven, to declare an overall winner is arbitrary and POV. Ytny (talk) 17:59, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
No they have been awarded the trophy for 2006 - see the official UEFA confirmation. It's the first time UEFA have done this - the team that gets furthest in the UEFA Cup from the Intertoto entrants is declared 'winner'. Qwghlm 19:02, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
Ah, thanks for that. I was confused with the format change - back then, they were all winners! --Ytny (talk) 19:13, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
You have still not answer the question - What the definition of UEFA Intertoto Cup shown in wikipedia is. kYLE RaymonD GIGGS 06:44, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
This is why UEFA Intertoto Cup doesn't hold a final. Because the overall winner is not decided in the third round. So Third round is not the final. kYLE RaymonD GIGGS 06:42, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Oh I found the article in the regulation of UEFA Intertoto Cup 2006

2.01 The clubs which qualify for the second qualifying round of the UEFA Cup and which subsequently go furthest in the competition each recieve a UEFA Intertoto Cup trophy.

That's it. So Newcastle is the UEFA Intertoto Cup trophy holder, but uefa.com made 11 winners sometimes. It let me confused of which winner should be declared. kYLE RaymonD GIGGS 07:00, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

The link you supply there clearly says Newcastle were the club awarded the trophy outright (end of third paragraph), so they are the overall winner out of the eleven "winners" at the trophy's end. I don't see where the confusion lies. Wikipedia doesn't get to define who the winner is (that would be original research), it can only report what UEFA has declared, and in this case Newcastle are the trophy-holders. Qwghlm 17:46, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Nope, UEFA made double-standard. At the fourth paragraph, 11 winners shown! So how should we put the honour. kYLE RaymonD GIGGS 08:02, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
