Bruno epitomises what NUFC and the Tyneside area is all about. A display in his honour would be extremely fitting. 
 

Off topic but Big Nick’s comments about him were class. 

What were these?

Bobby Moncur gets some amount of hatred from Newcastle fans because of his ashley arse licking mind

 

Think a lot of it is over the top meself

 

He’s grifted a living off the club and was part of the leadership structure setup by Ashley. Think he get’s the right level TBH. Never particularly strong but not forgotten.

Have say that from the Leazes, tonight’s banner was by far the most visually clear  of all the ‘wordy’ banners.

 

I know it was maybe shorter and more concise than other banners, which helped, but size and font wise, it definitely looked clearer.

We'll take that on board mate. Any photos?

Excellent job as always @Heron et al 

 

Quite an emotional one for my dad - Wyn Davies had been his hero as a kid & through a quite long and convoluted route had been in contact a little while back (what a great bloke he was by the way,  my dad will now vehemently disagree that you should never meet your heroes) so the 1942-2025 on his banner was a really nice touch.

 

That sort of little detail is what you get from the absolute best of our fanbase.

I was confused by the choice of words, not the message obviously. Is it from a song? 
 

Personally I would probably have gone for the trophy and year etc more than that specific text, but I know more knowledgable fans than me or older fans will have loved it.

Apparently he used to run a sailing club years ago and allegedly he was skimming money from it. Remember being at a talk in with him about 30 years ago and my mate quizzed him about it. To say he got very defensive, and then aggressive over it would be an understatement [emoji38]

Yip, its a song to the tune of John Brown's body.

Guessed it would be, I’ve just never heard it. 
 

Just thought something simpler and focused on the trophy, year and location would’ve been clearer. But obviously did know what the point was.

I think its to link in with this seasons final being in Budapest, scene of our only Euro trophy success.

It's the first line of the longer 'who's that team we call united song'. The longer version is much better IMO but gets sung less and less these days. 

 

Brilliant display by Wor Flags. We say it all the time but what a credit they are to our fans base.
