  1. It’s a wonderful feeling now it’s back. You’re in for a treat! Would be interested to read your views after the game on here!
  2. Try not to cry. Then again, I cry at anything these days. I had a tear in my eye when we were at Fulham and 4-0 up last week ffs
  3. Could imagine you were stoic as fuck on the wedding day as well. Bruce gets sacked and in tears lol
  4. Yeah we do need that font changed. Really surprised they’ve still not done it actually
  5. Left my house at 4pm whilst ‘working from home’ frantically updating teams on my phone to make it look like I was ‘working’. I got the ground with a few of my friends en route. Straight to Tesco for some beers. There was plenty of cabbages left in the shop*. Drinking a few cans, waiting for the announcement having no idea how I’d react. The news came through, a ripple at first, followed by a huge cheer. There was a tingle down my spine and I started crying. It wasn’t because we’d been taken over, it was because I actually got that spine tingling feeling back for supporting Newcastle United. I’d jacked my season ticket in 2014 and like many others, actively supported anyone playing AGAINST Newcastle. I never thought that feeling of love and emotion would ever return. Watching those videos again bring that day back. It really was a moment I’ll never ever forget. *By 6pm you could barely get into Tesco for cans and all cabbages had been sold out. I remember lads throwing and heading the cabbages around singing ‘You’re getting sacked in the morning’
  6. I think they really need to keep 5-10% of away fans back for a ballot to allow others a chance for points like. At the current rate, even if I can get an away League Cup game (Tranmere sold out midweek ffs ) once a season, it's going to take me 100+ years to get close to ever getting enough points for some fixtures.
  7. Bournemouth 1-2 Leicester Chelsea 3-0 Wolves Man City 4-0 Southampton Newcastle 3-0 Brentford Brighton 1-1 Spurs Palace 2-1 Leeds West Ham 2-1 Fulham Arsenal 2-0 Liverpool Everton 1-0 Man United Forest 1-2 Villa
  8. The away end was great yesterday. There was a good core bringing out some old corkers. There was a solid 2 minutes of singing the Andy Cole, David Kelly, Robbie Lee song.
  9. Was looking forward to going to this. Not so sure now with the team news Will be a good day out at least
  10. With you all the way apart from drums and megaphones. The old signing corner in L7 was great for that, but the noise never really travelled. A standing/singing section(s) is needed.
  11. Really appreciate the songs the corner try to generate. Even something as basic as “Howay the Lads” ad infinitum seems unknown to many. I was actually surprised how many knew to clap along to the precursor of “get into them and fuck them up” the other week. Unfortunately it seems the vast majority only know 5-6 songs these days.
  12. Arsenal 2-0 Spurs Bournemouth 1-1 Brentford Palace 0-1 Chelsea Fulham 1-0 Newcastle Liverpool 2-0 Brighton (double) Southampton 1-1 Everton West Ham 2-1 Wolves Man City 3-1 Man United Leeds 1-0 Villa Leicester 2-1 Notts Forest
  13. Desperate for it if I’m honest. I managed to start a couple in the Leazes/East corner but the whole atmosphere can’t be relied upon WF and the Strawberry corner.
  14. He’s a threat, yes. But that was v Tranmere as well
  15. One thing I am getting frustrated by is our total lack of threat from corners. Perhaps even more bizarre in that we have Trippier taking them. We never ever look like scoring from them, despite having one of tallest teams in the league.
  16. I think this again shows that N-O is and always will be an incredibly small representation of Newcastle fans, and the majority(?) view on here is very very different to the ‘outside world’. Ironically, Heron (incredibly easily may I add) managed to wind up the very same people that would quite happily label anyone in the politics thread a ‘Gammon’ that gets riled up on Twitter over whatever the talking point of the day is. The common factor tends to be anyone with a differing view to them. This is the overriding problem in all politics these days, in that nobody can debate, agree to disagree and take a different stance. Everything has to be polarised. It’s been shown again in this thread the last few days. I’m on the left and always will be, but the sneering and piss taking by many on the left towards anything ‘British’ only adds fuel to fire for a majority to continue voting Tory to uphold traditions (I digress, perhaps for another thread!). From what I’ve read on Twitter and Facebook, the majority of fans probably did want some form of display, again proving that N-O, as a whole, can have a miopic view of things. WF have spent hours debating amongst themselves in a democratic fashion in order to sit on the fence. Fair play to them and by 3pm it will all be forgotten about. As much as I wanted some form of showing, and I’d have been SO interested to see what Wor Flags could have cooked up (and I’m sure it would have been a Belter) - I can also understand why they’ve decided not to do it and I’ll back the decision too. I think my point is, after quite the ramble, is remember that not everyone has the same views as you; N-O, at times, can be an echo chamber and Wor Flags are class. HTL ??
  17. Top FPL worldwide scorer after yesterday scored 61 points. Who the fuck would triple captain Harrison Reed - giving him 30 points. Crazy scenes. I just know when I use triple captain I’ll probably get 3 points
  18. Eurghhh. I know Will he start on Saturday after playing midweek? 30 mins to make my mind up
  19. The issue with picking someone like Haaland is everyone does it 80% have selected him in their team compared to 7% with Isaak. Seems a good way to get some much needed gains on others.
  20. Isaak or Halland captain. That is my big decision this week after wildcarding 9 of my squad. Basically got rid of everyone not playing this week due to postponements. Hopefully pays off
  21. Would you rather sing the anthem or postpone the game…?
