all teams qualifying for europe this season will have it written into the contract with the various tv companies which matches will be screened.
basically its down to fanbase too- newcastle have large fanbase regularly attracting crowds of 40000 plus crowds.
and another thing- cos geordies are everywhere- would you want to upset one by not showing HIS teams matches on tv.
wyaye man away the lads man nyercastle ontelly agin man. gisagole man.
sorry geordies out there - only teasing

because there are lots of Newcastle fans (always have been) so putting them on TV guarantees a marketable audience to the advertisers.
its going to be cheaper than Liverpool or the London clubs (Chelseam Arsenal & Trafford Town)

Id rather watch Newcastle in europe than Boro or Blackburn,all you ever ear when Blackburn are on is that stupid drum banging in the crowd,and watching Boro is like watching a reserve match because theres so many empty seats,

I must admit ive noticed that too. I think its because they are generally thought of as an attractive side with passionate fans. Geographically too its hard for their fans to go away (even though loads do) and for other fans to get there. Im frustrated as im a West Ham fan and no TV station is showing our UEFA cup game

Because newcastle are an entertaining side to watch in my opinion. Because they have relativly good stikers and there is normaly a sending off!!!

I take it they're on Channel Five........
They get no ratings for any other programmes, so Newcastle would fit in fine on that channel.

basically , all teams are paid to have there matches screened on sky, or on t.v in european cases, every team in the premiership will get at least 1 viewing, it also helps with their financial backing
