Big Geordie

Leeds trying to give Chelsea a run for their money, when it comes to being a basket-case club.

With regards to Man United/protests - they are having the same issues that we had. Going to football games is now something of a middle-class experience - the ordinary working man has been priced out pretty much and has to now make do with watching on TV. It has become a spectator sport, with the majority of supporters being men, who are middle-aged and older. Then you get the daytrippers - something that we will start seeing of more at Newcastle as we become more successful. 'Created by the poor, stolen by the rich' - indeed

4-3! Jota

Ideal result for us this

3-3! Richarlison!

Scousers gonna fill their pants?

Son makes it 2-3. ???

Sometimes it can take players a while to settle in. Similar happened with Gary Speed - he eventually went on to be a great signing and an integral part of SBR's side. Gordon will be fine.

Watched at the local social club, with my dad and wor lass. Sloppy first half - brilliant 2nd. Almost qualified for the CL barring a major balls up now!

Marc Nash has just resigned as North Shields boss.

Platten's luck will run out eventually. This is the 3rd/4th season in a row that they've managed an escape.

Over the moon that Blyth have stopped up. Congrats to Ashington as well.

He could be an elite level striker for the next 10 years or so.

We steamrollered them, after Jo bagged the 2nd. Another superb win, despite not playing at full tilt. Issac's run for Murphy's goal - brilliant, brilliant, brilliant Hope they go down to be honest.

Fellas - we have a world superstar on our hands here. What a run for the 4th goal! Not seen owt like that in a black and white shirt since the days of Beardsley (seriously!)

Been a scrappy first half and we are slightly fortunate to be infront. Need a rocket up the arse at HT off Eddie. Also think we will see Manq on for Trips.

Happy enough with the side, but surprised that Isak has been benched given the form he is in.

Sounds like a similar level of 'ambition' as to the owner/committee at Blyth. In other news btw, Ashington have their promotion playoff game at Glossop North End, this coming Saturday.

It's really disappointing. I bet that funding will now 'disappear'.

Rivers are being very flakey tonight.

I thought they had got the cash together now? ?

I can't see Poch fixing Chelsea - it seems the owner is intent on having input too. It won't end well, IMO. Which will be a shame.

The lad is gonna be a world-class super-star striker. He's got everything. Ice Cold Is Alex.

Lots of the media since yesterday, seem to be more concerned with how 'bad' things are at Spurs, rather than how well we are doing. Good for us to be keep on going under the radar

Shearer was on Wembley duty, earlier on. Was trying his hardest to hide his delight.
