The Milan Machine needs to show he’s the best today. Fuck Szoboszlai up supposedly out first choice before we picked up Sandro.

All on cusp of legendary status. Everything forever forgiven. (Would hate to be Anthony Gordon today).

Wonder how long it would take him to get used to toon fans, from all over the world, kissing the glorious buttock?

Temperature check where you are? Feeling ‘pre-matchy’ this end.

Not bothered about the passage of play, possession, or even who scores first. I am bothered about effort, competitiveness and the lads showing self-belief. I’ll be happy and fully behind them throughout if they show this; turn-up in the best versions of themselves. If this leads to what we all want then my mind, and yours too no doubt, will be blown. They, or us, can’t will the preferred outcome into reality but they can perform. 100% from all; heads up chin out; show the world what you can do.

A one man party could still be your best footballing experience, mate. Revel in it 👍

Didn’t see it or too young to remember the ‘74 Gowling goal. So all I have is Rob Lee’s semi final goal which was a joy (albeit short lived). Although not there in person this time, a goal, particularly to put us ahead would overtake Albert’s chip, Shearer’s record, and Aprilla’s Barca demolition as my greatest Newcastle goal.

Right Kaka, 100 burpees for you when The Juice bangs one in.

Feel calm this morning; sitting in rural Cheshire sunshine. In my 🎵 no big thing, waiting for the bell to ring 🎵 mode. Not that I am not 100% emotionally invested; I am. Just ready to go to war. Hope those that matter feel similar.

Might have to have BBC commentary on. It’s a fucking Likely Lads stylee minefield though if timing is out of sync.

Hope the cat has stayed off the coffee…

Consulted the runes and it is a definite yes. If you have served a decent apprenticeship obvs; if not sarsaparilla until 3.30pm

I’ll be thinking of the N_O gathering and will raise a glass in your direction when we score! And thank God I’m not there if we’re shit—moaning bastards 😉

Today’s not the day for such stuff. Howay lads get your head where it should be.

We need Harvey to put in a performance today. He must know that; hope it feels like a nice pressure to have. A responsibility to the teammates and every one else relying on you. All that learning, all the playing throughout his developmental years. The bow is tightened and primed. Let the arrows flow bonny lad.

Still pissed? That’s the trick; just keep ticking over in the mellow zone.

He’s a man you’d want in your team on days like today; would give me the greatest pleasure if he was the difference maker.

‘Kin’ hell, Fak what with the Asda offence, taken into account, you’re going down for ever (…don’t mean on cats).

Well here’s hoping for tension throughout for and a name change!

This is a day of days.

On same rationale but of Lighthouse Family will ease the nerves and soothe the soul—maybe Ocean Drive

Sailing to Philadelphia has a nice Geordie line in it

That’s all my suggestions used up. Maybe a bit of Fender: Seventeen Going Under is the must have for me.

How did young Danish Will pick up that accent/affectations? He had 6 years in South Yorkshire is that what passes for downtown Sheffieldese these days?

I totally got my Trafalgar Square timings wrong last time. There were about 150 people there but all quite sedate. I (alcohol may well have been involved…) hijacked a busker spot (African drummer) and sang full version of Blaydon Races, with continual scary twirling, on way to Square; not one frigging group of fans passed and didn’t get a penny for him or me! Ended up shamefacedly giving him a tenner 😂
