Should make it easier for us. A few are dead and the rest are pushing 80.

But still better than the current Barcodes team

Are we expecting a low block from Newcastle today? Not seen them play under Howe yet

The tactics would have been a back 7, with 2 holding midfield, and the ball lumped long for Saint Maximum to chase ( he is quite good at it.) But I believe he may be out so Howe will go to plan b

Which involves putting his head in his hands and wasting as much time as possible.

I bet Newcastle put the 1970 Brazilian World Cup team out against us today

Hope so. Their average age is 75

I wonder if Eddie Howe is looking at ways to get this called off hours before ko?

Fog on the Tyne?

Let’s face it a win here with defeats for Chelsea and dippers and calls for a break will be loud.

Ref robbed us in that game . Disallowed a perfectly good goal that would have put us 2 nil up. Said we took a free kick too early.

And booked KDB for it too

I had visions of this being postponed and then we play them when they've signed a load of half decent players. Thankfully that hasn't happened.

I've said it now haven't I.

Still fitter that most PL squads full of super fit young Male athletes though!

Despite the NUFC website telling me this fixture is sold out I have managed to purchase a ticket at the ground with less than 3 hours to go to KO
