Sport News 24/7 By David de Winter - Sports Editor @davidjdewinter @TLE_Sport With five defeats in a row and only two victories since the turn of the year, it comes as no surprise that the Newcastle United Supporters Trust is backing a boycott of Sunday’s fixture against Tottenham Hotspur.

Sport News 24/7 By Rob McHugh @mchughr @TLE_Sport Despite all of the problems of the winter, it was a huge relief to see England back in white shirts playing test cricket again.

Sport News 24/7 By David de Winter - Sports Editor @davidjdewinter @TLE_Sport Tomorrow sees the conclusion of the mammoth six week-long Cricket World Cup with a 'local derby' final between Antipodean rivals Australia and New Zealand.
