My nephew’s local team is the Yokohama Marinos. He was wearing their top yesterday. He’d have probably gone to the game with his dad if he was in Japan at the moment. Over for the holidays, he was pleased with the result

I’ve run out of things to say about Longstaff now.

I worry that Tonali will take a while to get up to speed when he is baxk and Longstaff will have the place nailed down for a while 

 

I know he's apparently trained well but imagine he'll take a while to get match sharpness

Planned EDL march on Sat 10th - damn -means I can’t attend SJP for my own safety -  balls

 

 

 

Come hang out with us if you feel unsafe.

 

They have had marches in the past and been secured in an area.  They will do fuck all as per normal.

 

I would bet most people will be opposed to them and call out any of their shit.  Unlike Hartlepool we are not so stupid we would hang a monkey because we thought it was a spy.

Will see how this plays out during the week - hopefully settles down - if it doesn’t then sadly I’ll have to give it a miss

Get to the ground early it’ll be no where near the ground. You’ll be safe among the fanbase. Be a lot of families going to that game

Would have been a different result if we had scored one of the early chances we created.

 

Still, I'm getting 2022-23 season vibes looking at how good we played early on. Just need to get into stride.

 

Aye, any teams who play a high line we're going to get a lot of joy against again. We got behind them loads, just a bit of sharpness, final touch was missing. Think we'll score for fun again.

From what I’ve seen online it’s going to be at monument area. If clubs still struggling with miggy and Murphy by then I’d suggest Mitchell sends a few folk down there and picks up a couple of bargain right wingers. 
 

In all seriousness it’s a disgrace people even having to think this way. I’m taking the bairn next week and was in the same mind set as to take him or not but we don’t drink in monument area.

Yup don't wanna be Broon in the Toon this Saturday. But part of me wants to give a big fuck you to the racists. Do I put my kids through it?

Will go straight to the game and back. Nee drinks in the toon.

Wonder what our European guests will make of it all.

No legendary Geordie hospitality Saturday. Really hope I'm wrong.

Fan zone is open , they’ll not be thick enough to go near there surely. EDL - not fans

Almost a full strength Newcastle thrashed by a Japanese side. 

 

Will Howe last 10 games with Southgate waiting in the wings? 

 

Southgate will be at Man Utd well before then.

Also if fan zone is mental busy there’s plenty of decent bars around the area. Earl on Pitt Street is a particular hidden gem.

Aye it's a canny pub. I'm just a bit concerned taking the bairns into pubs that Saturday in case any radge who's had a skinfull starts up. I mean they're all older teens but still...

We're just getting back from holiday so we'll all be even darker!!!! Even the missus who usually looks transparent is rocking the brown at the moment.

Exact same problem as me mate. Sat in Salou whilst typing this. I normally post on another forum and we have a good group and a lot of us out together in the earl on the Saturday. More than welcome to tag along with us if your wanting age ranges are from 40’s to 60’s and all good lads.

Reckon the police will have a decision to make early next week as they won’t be able to police both the protest and the game without pulling in other forces from around the country. Hope it doesn’t result in the games going behind closed doors.
 

Supposed to be taking my two kids with me on Saturday and not willing to put them at risk for a match.  If they are around any bother it will scare the shit out of them.

I'm Asian (Muslim) from the Midlands and going to SJP with my young kids (all under 7 - their first trip) next weekend. 
Any places I need to avoid? 
Any places I should check out? 

Is it better to go to the Girona game on the Friday so we avoid Newcastle city centre on the Saturday?
