The question we were asking fans on Monday: Where do you now predict Newcastle United will finish in the 2026/27 Premier League season?
Which place in the table do Newcastle United fans think their team will end up in, after the final round of matches on Sunday 30 May 2027?
The last four league campaigns have seen Eddie Howe and his players finish the season in 4th, 7th, 5th and 12th places.
No European distractions this time.
A new manager in Matthias Jaissle and the Newcastle United players having the 38 Premier League matches to contend with, plus the two domestic cup competitions.
Newcastle United kick off their Premier League campaign on Sunday at home to Liverpool.
The big question in nine months’ time, where will NUFC finish in the 2026/27 Premier League season?
Our thanks to all who voted and here is the collective result from Newcastle United fans on how they think NUFC will do next season, percentages rounded up or down to nearest whole number (We asked the same question six weeks ago on 5 July 2026 and in brackets are the results from back then, for comparison):
1st – 2% (2%)
2nd – 0% (1%)
3rd – 0% (2%)
4th – 0% (4%)
5th – 1% (8%)
6th – 2% (13%)
7th – 6% (13%)
8th – 8% (13%)
9th – 6% (6%)
10th – 10% (8%)
11th – 4% (3%)
12th – 7% (4%)
13th – 4% (2%)
14th – 9% (4%)
15th – 11% (4%)
16th – 11% (3%)
17th – 8% (4%)
18th – 7% (3%)
19th – 2% (1%)
20th – 2% (1%)
Conclusions
As you can see, a huge change from when we asked Newcastle United fans the same question only six weeks ago.
When asked the question on 5 July, over half (53%) predicted Newcastle United finishing somewhere between fifth and ninth, now only 23% are believing a 5th to 9th finish.
Six weeks ago only 22% of Newcastle United fans that voted thought NUFC would finish 13th or lower, that has now rocketed to 54%.
Taking all the votes overall, six weeks ago they averaged out at a finishing position of around eighth, that average has now become fourteenth.
In a month’s time Newcastle United play their fifth Premier League match of the season at home to Hull and then there is a three week international break. It will be interesting then to repeat the question once more and here’s hoping the mood by that point is back on the up…
