Key Man: It's a measure of the Magpies' progress under Bobby Robson that they now have a handful of matchwinners but Alan Shearer is still the man to watch as his 15-goal haul suggests.
Form guide: Still up there, keeping pace with the big guns in the title race, the high-flying Magpies will have a 52,000 full house behind them tomorrow - an awesome prospect.
