[LCF] Newcastle United 2-1 Liverpool - NUFC LEAGUE CUP WINNERS

[Lush Vlad]

Still can’t gather my thoughts. Just all jumbled, stuff flying in and out of my head every few seconds. 
 

All I can say is, to a man, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen such a complete performance from us in a big game. 
 

Like every player, even the subs. Massively contributed and barely put a foot wrong. The much maligned back 5 were imperious, the midfield 3 dominant, the front 3 relentless even when they were feeding off scraps. 
 

So fucking elated this morning. Even after a 3 day session.

Dunno why, but seeing the bloke engraving our name on the cup was the maddest, spine-tingling moment for me.

Was beautiful, just want to watch that back again and again 

[gbandit]

The amazing thing about this is the hunger it’s going to instil in our players to do it again and the belief. We’re different club these days and everyone now knows it 

[Doctor Zaius]

An unbelievable day. 

 

I wasn't sure how I'd feel, not being a Wembley, whether I would feel a part of it but it was everything I hoped it would be. Great scenes around the city.

 

Absolutely momentous. This day, with this wait wont come around again. I hope everyone had a wonderful time, wherever you were.

[El Prontonise]

It'll be a glut of trophies now.

This is the closest I've ever been to being proud to be from Blyth. 

 

I'm still not, but it's close

Still at a complete loss for words. All I have so far is tears and a need to take in as much of it as possible.

 

Was an absolute pleasure sharing that experience with the lads on here and seeing what it meant to everyone. I'll never forget it even if I still can't quite believe it happened.

Not gonna lie I've never been a big fan of scousers

But the boozer i was in last night there was a load of them. Had a mint craic with them and they were saying how much we deserved it. Even got us a pint in

They used to be gold. Last gold one Arsenal won and that's why everyone's jealous of them, apparently 

[mattypnufc]

Had 5 hours kip over two days, but don’t feel tired at all. Buzzing my proverbials off.

 

Crying like a bastard all the time too.

We were sat at tables with scousers before and after the game and there’s a fair few in our hotel still. No issues with them at all. Nothing but well

wishes and congrats.

Where would you even start to rate the players as well? Complete waste of time. Dan Burn's performance alone has probably downgraded every previous 10 I've seen at Newcastle to a 9.

I was 13 when Bob Moncur raised the Fairs Cup in the air......wonderful supporting this team I thought many happy years ahead of trophy success to watch.

Last night 56 years later and Pozzy a man of 69 openly wept with fellow grown men and fellow starvees as number 2 trophy rolled in. 

Can I say to you all on here...great things are earned not gifted by right and yesterday the tactics the power intensity and game plan gave us our reward....all hail to Eddie and the team as RS said earlier the bucket list reduced and if you ever feel the need to grumble on here remember both this day and the 14 wasted years under FMA who tried to suffocate us all.

Howe In!!!

I was 6. Regardless of that pin this post in gold

[Kid Icarus]

Aye, I've seen nothing but congratulations and well-wishes from the Liverpool fans. Very impressed

The ones I know around here, all been gracious and accept they were totally outplayed from word go. Not sure how any Liverpool fan can say otherwise.

 

On reflection as days go on, that was as dominant as a final you can see. 2-0 up, relative control, should've been more considering the chances and positions we had (I also strongly disagree on the disallowed goal), and wasn't until Jones effort that whilst a good save from Pope, was down the middle, there was nothing else till Bruno tried a roulette in middle of pitch and we was caught out of shape. 

 

As on par as like Man City beating Watford what 5-0 few seasons ago IMO. 

[Sid]

That save from Pope!

Got a text right after the final whistle from a colleague saying congrats, best team won, enjoy it etc. Good stuff.
