Change Matty. 😉

Never change Matty..

Really liked Helder—half a season I think (2000 ish)

I think he is unplayable on his day and still has room for improvement.

Whilst trying to chip it into the netty.

It’s the fact that someone is trying to disprove estimates of crowd size that really tickled me. I mean, Howay, ha’way, Howay; have a word with yourself. I was fairly central about 150m from stage on the Moor. Lifted my daughter to video the crowd, it felt immense. Was so packed back towards the food trucks (300m away?) that gave up on the idea of getting food until the event was over. Certainly the biggest crowd I have ever been in.

I’d line to have seen whether a rash of reasonableness had broken out over the trophy celebrations. Like to think I’d have been in a ‘fair play to them’ state of mind, if roles were reversed. Doesn’t seem to be any threads on their RTG forum.

Niche but nice!

From pre parade walk on the beach in Tynemouth, packed Metro in at 2pm, biting wind, to taking over 2 hours to get back to Tynemouth, momentous day. So glad I headed ‘home’ for it and that my kids got to be part of it all.

We’ve got history. My first ever trip to SJP—which was absolutely packed, along with a smattering of tin foil covered cardboard trophies and dancing magpies—was to welcome them back after losing the ‘76 League Cup final. So we used to do that kind of thing (…yes, I do mean lose League Cup finals 😉).

Just build a colosseum (there’s a pun in there somewhere).

First goal. Iconic.

I’ve got a ticket but am bringing three kids up with me (and two dogs!) so will—unless I pull off the blag of all blags—just watch the parade. Thinking of being close to Town Moor entrance so I can hear what I’m missing. Can’t quite picture whether if I head for where Princess Mary’s hospital used to be then that would be about the right place. Can anybody help me out?

Anyone else thinking that us keeping our (maybe limited supplies of…) powder dry in last three windows, the reality of playing in Europe next season, the world wide publicity/profile bump around the cup win, and the ownership tasting the reality of us being successful create the perfect conditions for a big transfer window and a markedly improved squad next year?

Shame you can’t receive messages on here…

Well coming up for parade, staying in Tynemouth and will get Metro over. Fancy watching it pass near where Princess Mary’s hospital used to be. Have timings been published yet?

Nothing yet for me. Pisser given I will have to travel/maybe stay over. Probably come for parade anyway to be fair.

I haven’t heard anything back re Town Moor event. Has anyone? (Have just been unsuccessful in yet another ballot-Palace-though 🤷‍♂️)

Ordered! 🙌🏻

Let’s get this guy from Mainz instead; poor man’s Fab Schar!

Top all rounder. Very much a Howe (well anybody probably…) kind of midfielder. Only going to get better. He has 10 England caps at 19. Not controversial to consider him an excellent player; obviously not everyone would want him here/or at least see him as a good use of funds now.

Don’t know the lad’s game very well, but his stats and international pedigree speak volumes. And his favourite player bodes well: Obafemi Martins.

I actually want Kobbie Mainoo; I know it is probably least priority position but this kid’s the real deal. Could be perfect time for fuck you to Man U as well.
