Sir Bobby Robson has told his Newcastle United playing side that away form is the key to Champions League qualification - and his side must improve it! Jimmy Walker

AWAY WINS CRUCIAL!

Newcastle take on Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park tonight, knowing that a win will keep them fourth in the table.

Newcastle have however, won only two Premiership games away this season.

Robson said: "Our away form is the main reason why we haven't managed to keep in touch with Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea.

"You won't win every game at home - and that's happened to us - but it's on the road that you pick up the extra points.

"We've got to be a team of great resolve away from home between now and the end of the season.

"We travel to Liverpool on the final day and I don't want to have to win there to get fourth place."
