We're getting bitten here right? We're Newcastle after all.

Fairly certain he said "YES" as the ball was being delivered.

I've never celebrated a goal like that before. My throat fucking kills right now

Can't believe I celebrated a Newcastle goal in a cup final. Fuck.

Dan Fucking Burn. Fuck. Don't know if I like being ahead. Fuck fuck fuck.

Didn't realise Kevin Nolan knew sign language.

I blame the two sips of Beer I've just drunk

Last time we won a domestic trophy, Queen Elizabeth II had only been in the throne for 23 months ffs

Nerves kicking in, but not as bad as last time, I think given it's Liverpool, and we never beat Liverpool, and I expect the same result today is helping quite a bit

Nerves haven't quite started to hit yet, been on a long drive this morning having been away overnight, so have been massively distracted which has helped, but it does feel different this time, feels like everyone is in "We have a job to do mode" instead of the final being the achievement. I imagine come 16:20 i'll need to be stuck to the toilet if my nerves are similar to two years ago mind .

Basically how I'm feeling, I don't think we'll win, if it was any other team than Liverpool, I'd be more nervous, but given our record is so poor against them, I'm not expecting a thing. Which give it an air of a free hit, and not getting my emotions too high.

Have Bristol City finally broken out of their 10 year long mid-table Championship purgatory?

Come 18:30, hopefully just a singular sock.

Oooof.

Thats as fake as they come that. Imagine

@NotRich

Apparently all England need in order for the 5th Champions League spot to be confirmed is one singular win for any team at the quarter final stage, and that's in any of the 3 UEFA competitions.

If he is getting a call up, that's fucking quality, couldn't think of a person and player more deserving after years of utter hard work

Woof, that's some statement, worse than some of wombles back in the day?

If we're doing external wants, i've always loved the aesthetic look where a stadium has a big grand entrance way at one end of the stadium, that opens out to the rest of the City, like the LA Coliseum And the Olympiapark in Berlin:

I also love that this is the topic of conversation right before we go into only our second cup final of this century.
