Tbf I had zero Interest in football before the takeover. Id had all my love, optimism and passion for the game squeezed out of me till there was nothing left. I stopped all interaction with the club after they fucked Rafa over. Loads probably in the same boat. Nowt to be ashamed about. Felt I had no option but to walk away.

No it's not. It's simply meant to be a 2nd tier competition for those clubs that don't finish in their, respective CL places. Annoying as our two lower/mid table clubs reaching the final is there was enough meat on the bone at the start of the EL for there to have been reasonably stiff opposition to Spuds and Manure. If you don't believe in 3rd placed, CL, failures dropping into the EL then this is what you asked for. I'm in that group and if anything was helping the clubs with greater resources the EL drop-in was it.

Would have preferred Miley to start

“He’s a like for like replacement for Joelinton”. He’s really not.
-
Not really into his music but is Sam Fender a big deal, like worldwide? He’s celebrated like he’s a global icon but I can’t say I know too much about him or why he’s so intertwined with the clubs marketing. It’s like we know Amir Khan is from Bolton and Carl Froch is from Nottingham so they supported their hometown clubs. Is Fender more like Froch or Khan in terms of fame / success?

This was bang at the start of the Steve Bruce reign as well.

Miss Sven's reading of the game and his eye for a pass.
-
That's nice West Ham. Kudos to you too.
-
-
They’re not going to be at the beach, they have a chance to deny Chelsea CL football, that’s a big motivation
-
...and was the school bully.

If we can get him comfy on the right of the central defence he might be Schar's successor as I can't see us ever dropping Dan Burn for now. Or 3 centre backs ? What a nice problem to have for a change. Rewind a year and I had Burn on the bench but he's so important to us.

Actually, just reading what it says on the club shop, this shirt is for the launch of the album (only a few weeks late, like). "A limited edition Newcastle United adidas 24/25 home shirt to celebrate the launch of Sam Fender's new album." Maybe we've yet to see the launch of the 'Concert' shirt, to celebrate his 3 night gigs at St James'??!!

He's South Hylton born and bred marra
-
Bet he's actually from South Shields.

The Europeometer™ (2024/25) - NUFC Qualify for Conference League (at least)

If we get 6 points with 3 of those vs Chelsea it probably won't matter if Villa get 12. -
That's utter shite pedalled by Makems He's always been a Newcastle fan and there's loads of pics of him in Newcastle shirts in the years before we were taken over. There's even pics of him outside SJP on his 2019 album cover He's not obsessed with football and he loves music, Star Wars and computer games more than NUFC, but he's supported Newcastle all his life
-
Villa still worry me the most , I would be expecting at least 10 points from them four games if it was us and 12 isn't unrealistic either . That would mean we need another 7 including beating Chelsea.
-
90 quid My winners shirt cost less than that.
-
That is categorically untrue fwiw.
-
There'll be people who still pay the money for it. But I reckon had they priced it closer to actual concert merch which is overpriced anyway, even a bit more, say £45, they'd sell tons for the gigs. But another £90 for that is just crackers.
-
Sound like a mackem here but by all accounts Fender had zero interest in football until the takeover either. Fair play to him as he's obviously not daft and cashed in massively on it .
