Just eat a fuckload of carbs at 7.30am and you'll be grand. You can top-up on cakes and sweets at HT, just don't eat half a packet of Jaffas like Greg did.

So wanna score now You'll need to turn up first. Nice fishing, been to more than you ( probably). This will be my fifth ( and best) Reds vs Blues I was joshing man! Eeesh.

He's a bajillionaire for a reason.

I'm off tomorrow after the Everton game, mate - if you wanna just tag along. Mike's making a fortune out of us lot I've just had to go and get some shin pads this afternoon there.

So wanna score now You'll need to turn up first.

Get in! How come you're a red now though? You were my right-hand man last time I played, literally.

I was chuckling away when he was standing on the touchline waiting to come on yesterday. That cheesy smile and the patting of/pointing towards his upper arm when he was telling Cabaye to give him the captain's armband was mint

Only a short walk; it's bang on the main shopping street (Northumberland Street) and is fairly impossible to miss. You'll want to head for Monument from the station and that'll see you right if you keep going that way. Plenty signage and friendly locals about too.

By the way, in keeping with tradition the Jaffa Cakes and Skittles are on me. I'll also bring plenty of Powerade again so nobody dies of dehydration. Really looking forward to it, especially since I don't have to run after Andy Johnson time and time again like I did in the second one.

Might be a daft question, but are we alright for footballs? I recall this being an issue at one of the games I played in.

It's all on Sifu

How long is it to get the train to Central then onto Four Lane Ends from there Ketsy?

That'll do pig, that'll do. Was gonna suggest the same. Benton Ale House is right next to Four Lane Ends as well, so people could easily be in for a pint and then get away in plenty time for the match.

We having a beer or two post-match or will people not have the time before NUFC kick off?

Martin Hardy again? We'll see if he's more right about this than he was about the January stuff.

The change to Sunday has sealed it. Did you not play in the second one??

Conceded 5 in the 1 and 2/3 of a game I've played...

Stick me down for the Blues please, Yorkie. I'll play anywhere at the back, but preferably CB.

Aye class banter that like.

The world is a better place when we win, it's been a great few days. Hatem on his way back and some tasty fixtures on the horizon too.

He praises Simpson highly on the NUFC TV interview mind, saying that behind today it was the best right-back performance of the season from him away at Metalist.

Nope.

Outstanding.

Season starts here like.
