I’ve obviously posted only a few times so it probably has been missed, but my views on state owned football clubs are much aligned with Klopp. It should never be allowed, so if you think that's why I don't like him you're completely wrong. My dislike of the bloke comes from his arrogant...

Congratulations to you all. It would have been a travesty had you finished below 6th, given how consistently good you've been. I still think it's a travesty bloody Liverpool and especially Klopp are getting 5th, but never mind. Wish nothing but the best to Brighton (save for the 2 games a...

It all depends what you want really, but for a bit of history try the Old George in the Bigg Market. There's a pub been on that site since the 1600s to my knowledge, and does some cask ales (buy 6, get your 7th free) if that's what you're after. There's a few 'proper' pubs round there - none of...

Yeah, there is a rule that you have to have a section of fans pitch side but Newcastle (and Sunderland when they were in the Premier League) have exemptions due to safety, which let's be fair is boll*cks. The argument is it would entail fans mixing at the end, but I was at Elland Road last...

It's like climbing up Durham Cathedral, isn't it!? I used to sit in Level 7 back in my younger days and can't lie, it was always a bit of a p*sser walking up all them stairs after sinking a good few beers before the match. However, you do get amazing views over the City. You can even see...

See, I didn't know they hadn't won in so long and now you've made me twice as worried. Thanks for that! There's a running theme at NUFC - if a striker hasn't scored in ages or a team hasn't won in a while, you can bet your bottom dollar it'll come against us! They do seem to have downed tools...

Glad you enjoyed yourself. I'm not sure of the exact number but I think St James' is within a 5 minute walk of over 120 bars. I do hope we never relocate (and the new ownership have said we won't) , but demand is exceeding supply at quite a high level at the moment. We have bought the land back...

Ahh, so basically like when we play Big Sam then!? Fair enough, mate. Didn't know that. I'll tell them not to worry, but unfortunately it's in our nature. Most of us now are relentlessly worrying about Leicester, although logically if we play anything like we did in the first 45 last night, we...

I'm sure you will be fine, to the point where I'd be willing to bet my mortgage on it! At the end of the day, if the consolation prize is Conference League, which I know is not ideal, then so be it. It's a competition that will give you cracking trips and a genuine chance of winning it. I know...

Morning lads - definitely not here to gloat. We started like we always do in our 'big' home games - lightening fast in everything we do. There's always the worry, like I said on this forum the other day, that if a team with the quality of Brighton manage that opening barrage they're going to...

I'm not sure you boys have much to worry about in terms of European qualification. Reading through, it seems you're worried about the Southampton game because of how you've been in the past (and probably recent performances against Forest/Everton), but honestly your Southampton game is a bye...

Understand why you'd feel like that to be honest. There's a fair section of our match-going fans who feel rightly feel uncomfortable with the ownership, myself and Father included, the latter having a season ticket since 1974. Social media is different, and yes there's been idiots wearing...

How can you not!? In recent weeks, the Alexander-Arnold handball at Leeds was the first. I know they won 1-6 in the end, but the first goal is always crucial. It was much more of a handball than Wilson at Brentford and certainly Mitoma at Spurs, but wasn't even checked by VAR. Then Thiago in the...

Afternoon all from many miles away in Newcastle! Basically just echoing everything the OP has said. I can't help but just admire the fearless nature of the way you lads play. Feel like you're a beacon of how a club should be run - top to bottom. You've pioneered certain things; I think an older...
