[League Cup Final] Newcastle United Vs. Liverpool - 16/03/25 (Live on ITV & Sky)

[SiLvOR]

I'm 35 and I'd genuinely given up hope of us winning anything about 5-6 years ago. Just never seemed possible. And now we've reached 2 finals in 3 years. Unbelievable turnaround. I'm so desperate, like we all are, to see us lift a trophy. We've got such a good chance now. Fuck Liverpool, mark Salah out of the game and have Isak score a brace. Job done.

I’m 50 first game we got beat 1 0 at home by Shrewsbury used to love walking to the ground smelling the hops from the brewery.  Having a coke in the magpie club.  Witnessed some cracking players over the years loved the Keegan and Robson years I even liked Willie McFaul.  Sourness was a plank but nothing compared to the Ashley years.  I boycotted after having a season ticket since 1981 struggle to get a ticket now.  Do I regret it possibly but maybe if thousands had stayed the fat shit jeans wearing tear might have continued to milk us.  Love the highs and lows standing in the San Siro thinking this is us every season to the shite of McClaren playing Anita and Colback in midfield the inevitable relegation.  Like you never thought I’d see us win anything but can we win it yes we can.  Isak is unreal, Gordon has Trent Alexander Bellends number, Tonali gets better and better and please start botman.  We can do these fuckers

It's a mental thought isn't it. Like I cannot imagine the thought of us having won something. It feels like one of those things where everyone would be like "Ah God help us if we win it, I'll be partying for a whole week" bur I'm not sure in reality it would. We'd have to come home for one. We'd have work. We'd be literally so dumbfounded that we finally broke this curse I literally think it will initially make folk feel a bit disorientated (once the celebrations die down )

 

 

 

think Del Boy and Rodney when they’ve sold the clock and are leaving Nelson Mandela House for the last time

I'm 50 as well and that Shrewsbury game was one of my first. Used to sit in the old wooden west stand. There was a bloke behind us called Ted who would swear constantly and when my mam (I was around 7-8 years old) told him off he'd apologise, and then just do it again thirty seconds later. He had bizarre nicknames for every player, although I only remember Waddle who he called "Slack Alice".

 

Constant smell of cigar smoke in that stand around us (think that was Ted too) and the toilets were something else.

Problem is that when you double or triple up on Salah you leave literally the world's best crosser of a ball with loads of space behind him. 

 

Wonder if we could play something that's like this in effect:

 

Dubravka

Livramento Schar Botman Burn Hall

                                            Joelinton

                    Tonali  Bruno     Gordon

                      Murphy               Isak                                               

Don't think they'll let us field 12 players tbh

I’ve always had the weird feeling that the first trophy win in yonks reaction in Newcastle will be an odd outpouring of emotion mixed in with drunken revelry - it’ll feel really, really odd; not an anticlimax exactly, just that the reaction won’t be uniform.  The second one and every one after that would be a standard two days of drunken merriment.

This is on my birthday; so excited for this!

[Holloway]

Been going since the early 70's, have witnessed just the 5 final defeats, and the semi final robbery.

Went to the first 2, remember my dad bollocking me for being a misery on the coach journey home.

I imagine there'll be tears should we pull it off this time.
