Rob Elliot and Mike Williamson are nowt but snakes.

Health above anything else, all the best to him.

Mike Williamson has left Franchise Dons to go and manage Carlisle.

South Shields vs Gateshead in the Durham challenge cup, week commencing Oct 7th.

This year is the year for the heed, I can already taste league football

Aye, awful fight.

Sol Bamba has died.

Elanga already shot down by Craig

Official grass sponsor? Seat sponsor? Plane sponsor? Coach sponsor?

Dinna like, I've just seen Ronaldo at Newcastle Airport with a black and white striped shirt on, take that as you will..

At which stage do we start planetracking?

What a shithole of a window. Can't wait for a repeat in a few months time..

He's been training and what not, he'll be sound

End of the season

Didn't take long for the twitter lot to get on this..

Don't say I didn't tell you so when he smashes it

Nemanja Matic about Miodrag: "A huge talent and serious potential… he's on the path to the national team… we haven't seen a player with such predispositions since Nemanja Vidic and Branislav Ivanovic.”

Been following him since he was born, great cracking player

Wait and see ...

Can only imagine if perhaps Howe faces more pressure now for next season without his #1 backer at the club.

Pretty much - can't go up til stadium issue is sorted or we move (there's another whole council meeting on the stadium being sold off, coming up soon)

The thing is there's quite genuinely nothing to play for next season bar the cup/trophy. No point of trying to get promoted seeing as we can't actually go up.

Don't break my heart yet again by reminding me please.

Will McGowan (Blyth Spartans) and Tiernan Brooks (Notts C) both expected to join Gateshead imminently.
