During the 2002/03 season Newcastle had 7 points after 6 games and were positioned 13th in the league. They went on to finish 3rd. This is not likely to happen this season but it does show dramatic improvement can occur.
The cell highlighted red is Newcastle’s worst start to a season since the Premier League became a 20 team format.
