Image for PICTURE: If Newcastle United made a film…

Newcastle cinemaComing to a cinema near you soon, the film of Newcastle United; and for once it’s not a comedy! Paddy Power have put together a pretty cool poster for a potential Newcastle film called: The Contenders.

There’s no doubting that Newcastle have had an excellent season and the Champions League beckons if the Magpies can stay ahead of Tottenham in the Premier League and if Bayern Munich beat Chelsea in the final of this year’s competition.

They are definitely contenders for a Champions League place and this film poster parody of The Avengers is pretty cool, if a little stereotypical of Geordies, what with the tagline: “You should never have relegated us pet”.

It’s true that Alan Pardew has assembled a group of heroes we didn’t know existed and there have been some real heroes wearing the black and white of Newcastle United this season.

Depicted below are just some of them, including goalkeeper Tim Krul as Captain America, Yohan Cabaye as Hawkeye and captain Fabricio Coloccini as Thor. Here’s Alan Pardew as Iron Man leading his contenders…

I’m not sure the inclusion of Paul Gascogine as The Incredible Hulk or Kevin Keegan’s and Jimmy Nail’s quotes were necessary, while Cheryl Cole hasn’t exactly starred for Newcastle this season either!

So, will Alan Pardew’s Newcastle contenders be coming to a Champions League soon?
