Who would they be then? Milburn, Gallacher, Macdonald, Keegan, Shearer...?

 

Harvey, Scoular.

 

I'd put Aitken in. Polymath and that. Jimmy Lawrence too.

Loads more worthy than Super Mac man.

 

Veitch would be there without a shadow of a doubt.

I've just had a look at his Wiki entry

I know it's a long long time ago but imagine having the run of success we had between 1905 and 1911 and he was a local lad and captain to boot.

all that, a playwright, friend of the stars, and pissed all over Ryder & co. when it comes to journalism:

 

Away from football, Veitch was a great lover of the arts and co-founded the People's Theatre, Newcastle upon Tyne in 1911.[3] He was also an accomplished playwright, composer, conductor and producer, and counted George Bernard Shaw amongst his circle of friends.[4]

 

Veitch fought in World War I and returned to Newcastle after the war.

 

Veitch was also very politically aware and was approached to stand as a Member of Parliament for the Labour Party. Although he turned the proposal down, he did become a union activist for the Professional Footballers' Association and was the PFA's chairman for a number of years.

 

After resigning from Bradford City he returned to Tyneside and became a journalist with the Evening Chronicle. In 1929 he was banned from the St James' Park press box.[4]

Right enough though, massive black and white banners of former club legends would be unbelievably good. I've always thought the exterior of SJP was a bit boring and didn't really show off the club as well as it could. Shame the current owner would never pay for such a scheme unless we agreed to have at least half the space covered in Sports Direct adverts.

Hughie Gallacher for me.

Imagine the state it will be in after the weekend, man. 

 

Aye a na, wouldn't have been much fun playing in a monsoon last night either.

 

Anyone know how much they're charging this time round? Think it was £70 when I played a couple of years ago, I imagine it'll be more now.

I just took this photo now...I'm not sure that bit of metal is supposed to be precariously hanging over the edge of the Milburn above a bus stop like.

I've given them a ring and they've said that they're going to send someone up to check it out. That was 10 minutes ago.
