Report: Eagles vs Sheffield Sharks (BBL Trophy Quarter-Final)

For seven long years Sheffield hearts sank every time a cruel BBL fixture list taunted the club with yet another tiresome trip to Tyneside. Prior to tonight’s clash the Sharks had failed to win in Newcastle since 2011 – a dire run stretching back 16 painful matches. As if the history books weren’t damning enough…

All Whyte On The Night

Newcastle Eagles will continue to rewrite North East sporting history under the ‘remarkable’ leadership of Fabulous Flournoy.

Redemption has never felt this good. Jaysean Paige, widely pilloried for the lack of concentration that allowed Leicester Riders to win in Newcastle last time out, triumphantly atoned for that late mental slip with an offensive masterclass against the reigning champions.
