That’s four goals in just two games for Newcastle’s next big hope after another Adam Armstrong brace fired Coventry City to a 4-0 away win at Millwall on Saturday.
The 18-year-old’s first goal was utterly brilliant as he saw the keeper off his line a chipped him with unerring accuracy from all of 35-yards.
His second was equally as classy as he timed his run to perfection to chip the ball over the advancing keeper to make the score 3-0 at half time.
Armstrong also netted twice on his Sky Blues debut against Wigan Athletic last weekend and should he continue this rich vein of goalscoring form, he’ll brake a Ccfc record set by Newcastle United legend Mick Quinn 23 years ago.
Quinn, who was sold to Coventry by Newcastle in 1992 for £250,000, scored 10 goals in his first six games for City which means...

There’s always going to be a vocal element of Newcastle fans – particularly on social media – who won’t accept that any of the club’s sales have ever been replaced. The issue of Andy Carroll’s replacement was quickly swallowed into Demba Ba’s replacement (without acknowledgement that the latter replaced the former), some will moan that Janmaat isn’t the right replacement for Debuchy despite not seeing him play, and more than any other, fans will moan that Yohan Cabaye is yet to be replaced.
To be honest, there’s probably somebody sitting in the darkest, grumpiest parts of the internet still banging on about how Newcastle never sufficiently replaced Len White. Such is the temperament of the typical football fan.
Until someone emerges as a great player for Newcastle, fans are inevitably backward-thinking, because nostalgic love burns brighter than anything a fan can feel in the moment.

Third tier team Coventry City travel to Premier League leaders Arsenal in the Fa Cup fourth round on Friday with only one win against the Londoners in 20 years in all competitions.
Robbie Keane, who went on to play for the Gunners’ bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur, scored the winner at Highfield Road in December 1999 as the Sky Blues emerged victorious 3-2. You have to go back to 1993 for the last time Coventry won at Arsenal by the handsome scoreline 3-0. Micky Quinn’s hat-trick in half an hour at Highbury did the damage.
The Sky Blues’ have a dismal Fa Cup record against the Gunners too. Arsenal have never lost to Coventry in the world’s oldest knockout football competition. In all cup competitions full stop the West Midlands outfit have recorded a single win.

Supergrass are to receive the Prs for Music Heritage Award next month. The band will be handed the honour at an event on October 3 at the Jericho Tavern in Oxford, where they were first signed. "Everyone aspired to play the venue back in the day and I remember seeing my brother's band This Way Up play there as early as 1983," explained Supergrass founding member Mick Quinn. "We received our first positive reviews as Theodore Supergrass at the Jericho in 1994, when the promoter Maccy burst into the dressing room after our gig telling us, 'You've got it!' "Soon after, the feeding frenzy of record company A&R men started." Guy Fletcher, Prs Chair commented: "It's a rare talent that epitomises the feeling (more)...

The former band member, who split with Danny Goffey and brothers Gaz and Rob Coombes by email last April, said that the group are on "good terms". He told BBC News: "I'm still on good terms with the rest of them and I'm confident we would probably (more)...

Some bands have all the luck, and some bands can't buy a break. Supergrass belong in the latter category, as despite a series of buzz-heavy singles (including "Alright," the breakout hit from their debut album I Should Coco that was also featured on the soundtrack to the hit movie "Clueless"), they never seemed to be able to get over the hump for a true breakthrough (at least in America, anyway). And on this day in 2007 (just as they were , the band had to put all of their business on hold when bassist Mick Quinn broke his back and heel in a supremely unfortunate accident.
While staying at a villa in France, Quinn fell out of a first floor window. The bassist was sleepwalking and managed to tumble out of the window to the ground below. He had to be rushed to a spinal specialist in Toulouse who immediately operated on...

When Mick Quinn wrote The Uncommon Path of Awakening Joy, he set out with a single purpose in mind. Quinn's purpose is toward one goal...to awaken the potential of true self and to find lasting peace. Celebrity News Service spoke with Quinn about the book and the quest for true awakening and peace that spans centuries.
"The key to finding peace and joy today is the same as always. There are more distractions today but it really comes down to a matter of interest. If one has the interest, it can be achieved," said Quinn. Quinn told Cns that most people turn towards finding their true selves and finding peace when they have been through suffering of some sort or when things in their lives have been going extremely well. More often than not, it is only after difficult suffering, does one seek to find peace.
