Looks like the stage is covered in treacle... So slow covering the ground...

Tavernier caught napping twice there...

Alright Anyways, any interesting games before the World Cup? There was a stray ball on the pitch... And from 20-30 yards away Varane knocked the ball back steadily to the halfway line area which you are meant to do... Simone a yard away controlled the ball then lost control of his head...

The TV footage they showed post match on the incident clearly shows Simone in the wrong... Varane did nothing wrong...

What a great start to the weekend...

Steve McClaren would probably be a good fit with the type of players Carr scouts and our overall transfer budget...

Neil Lennon has resigned from Celtic...

They'll stick with SA until they move into the new stadium... Then change to try and fill it...

Not sure if best thread but... Friend at work knows a lad who know Charnley well and he's saying the club are trying to get Kenwyne Jones... Dear God no...

He had nothing new to say at all...

Usually Julien Laurens, he isnt much of a fan of ours like so will probably wont say much of interest It is... Always comes across as a bit of a gobshite... Prefer Auclair...

H&J are doing a segment today on their TS radio show covering 3 French players we are apparently in for... No doubt a scouting report from one of their French journalists...

Filling up nicely... Might even match the Cambridge turn out...

I always take pride that when you see our name against other clubs when mentioned in the top 10 supported clubs in Europe or even the top 20 richest clubs in the world and then compare how successful all the other clubs have been in recent times and then read nothing against ours for over 45 years... Makes me think what a weird but special club I support...

3 officials still can't spot the keeper off his line by 3 yards...

Just Googled Sam Matterface... He looks exactly how I'd imagined...

So he's getting a testimonial... Good luck with that...

This... And the growing outlets where you can watch an "un-televised" match is what this club (and other clubs to an extent) need to be mindful of... I was talked into giving it one more year when I was about to cancel in Feb and to be honest I'm regretting it in many ways as far as giving this particular owner the money to do very little with... The overriding reason to renew was to guarantee attendance to any away game as I've over 100 points but as said above that is becoming less of a necessity these days...

I'm going to be in the section above the singing section, the view looks fantastic. The concourse will probably just be carpeted or some s***.

I'm going to be in the section above the singing section, the view looks fantastic. The concourse will probably just be carpeted or some s***. Good stuff... I just went Level 1 on the advice that if you are row 17 the view should be spot on so I just hand picked a couple of seats left for there... Fingers crossed though I dare say there will the option to move around anyway with the stadium being so empty...

A friend was telling me this morning that apparently we've had to ask for more tickets... I know as of per yesterday there was 1400 travelling officially on 25 coaches... Though I know of a load of others making their own way in groups of 16 to 40 etc...

Looking at what is available I think that squad is as good as I could've hoped being picked with my only real question mark is Smalling but I guess he is the one who RH sees as covering RB as well as CH...

Wonder if they will refresh the backroom staff... Just as important in many respects...

I dare say it was their big day too... On a serious note I did fear due to the publicity on social media that NUFC would get LFC to up their security so wasn't surprised by the stories of confiscations... I agree with the responses above on reflection... Although as a Gateshead fan myself also I wouldn't of been that bothered if they were just layed on some empty seats... But maybe someone who is solely a Gateshead fan might think otherwise... I'd certainly wouldn't encourage any NUFC chants... Pre-Season probably the sensible place for the next airing... I take it they were all returned safely?

shouldn't be about that, another clubs big day. I agree... Doubt it would overshadow it though and as the ground will be 70% empty your bound to get a little exposure from the BT SPORT cameras...

Any plans for these to be taken to Wembley this Sunday?...
