A Geordie, long suffering Newcastle United fan. Gay, with a husband, a son and a cockapoo.

Saturday is looking like a good game for us following on from getting smashed by……. (Checks notes)….. the mighty Coventry who had until Monday only scored 1 goal in 5 games. I know let’s go for 2 in midfield with a shaky defence and see how many goals we can concede……. #NUFC

Not sure using a horse was the best animal to use on the promotional video for the Blaydon Races release considering our previous relationship ship with said horses ie a fan punching one during some random riot. #NUFC

All the Howe lovers on here, don’t try to say that EH left cos of a few people on social media said he shud and MJ is worse (he prob is tho). EH left cos, based on preseason, and the fact all his best players were sold, and that last season was a slog, that he simply knew #NUFC and him wud struggle

Should Jaissle have continued to live at the Dakota and not moved into a new house during the int.break? These last few games away and I wonder if his stay on Tyneside might be short #NUFC

What an embarrassment. Leeds was bad, but to lose 4-1 to Cov when they’ve only scored 1 goal all season. My concern is what will the score be at Anfield, Emirates or even B’ton’s gaff? 3 wks they had to work on this. Is Jaissle out of his depth here cos it appears he is?Relegation fodder IMO #NUFC

Those who no me will know I am the -ve Nelly of this site, but I am at a loss 2 the -ve noise from the media and also many fans on socials moaning about yesterday.We fucking won. Played well 4 60 mins. Back Against the wall when lads got tired but we had 9!! First team injured yesterday! Jeez #NUFC

Enjoyed 2day in the level7 safe standing, some good singing going on! Good 1at half, shame Wissa missed that penalty as it would have finished the game. Made it hard on ourselves 2nd half, but we held on, not sure we would have last season. 8pts out of 15. Good return considering. Hall is GOAT #NUFC

The morning after. What a shit game eh? PF- Wissa toothless up front, Wissa just fall over . No midfield, need JL back and don’t know what Ramsay has done to upset MJ. With no midfield teams just go thru us, defence not great either, Botman is done IMO Horny only gd bit. Bad feeling re:Hull #NUFC

This is not a dig at EH, but honestly if he was still in the dugout for us I really do not think we would be unbeaten in 5 based on how the players were reacting to him end if the season and we know he wouldn’t have played ANY of the new players yet. None. #NUFC

There are some worrying signs that it will definitely be an up and down season. Not expecting much this 26/27 season but it’s 5 games unbeaten which we can’t complain about. Hope the team gels quickly cos from that game performance we are not long away from a proper hiding off some good team #NUFC

Been randomly been thinking about Tonali and Spurs. I reckon he’ll try his best to get Spurs relegated, cos his price will plummet and some club in Italy might be able to afford him. Win- Win for him- gets a year in London then back to Italy before the bairn goes to school 🤣 #NUFC

Proper bogey team for us is B’mouth. Remember back in the 90’s when S’hampton was a proper bogey team for us even though they were generally shite against all other teams-we never got nowt off them. Still unbeaten though. Wonder if it’s gonna be like last season-turn up only against big teams #NUFC

After me being a bed wetter just weeks ago how that window turned around eh?! Shows me to have little faith. We cud hav done some defensive players in but am significantly more optimistic than a month ago. The only regret is Bruno. Wasn’t planned and his face beaming out of JD in town galling #NUFC
