As a rule of thumb how far does the average Geordie get into IKEA before wanting to self harm?

Up The Workers ✊🏻🏁

Match Day! Howay the lasses! 🖤🤍

Why did the Saudis decide to move so heavily into sport? Is #NUFC a priority and what brought us to this point? I’ve reviewed James Montague’s book ENGULFED - also contains podcast interview with the author and contributions from TF’s Alex Hurst - tf1892.substack.com/p/review-eng...

Why are our wide players, Barnes aside, not performing this season? Elanga’s performances are so bad to be alarming and Gordon has now put in more mediocre performances than good. Murphy is at his level. Have we failed to move on from Isak? Wissa hasn’t delivered and Woltermade is fitful.

The news about a potential £200m investment in a new training ground is positive. But words of caution - no land has been bought by the club, no planning permission sought and no confirmation from #NUFC When shovels go in the ground that’ll be it happening. I remain one of life’s sceptics 😆🏁

Scott Robson for TF as #NUFC look down and just about out of the League Cup as Man City take a big step towards the final - tf1892.substack.com/p/tf-match-r...

No luck … absolutely abysmal refereeing again and not much of an attacking threat at all - that’s with all of our attacking players having a go. Thought Ramsey had his best game and looks a player. Hall, Miley excellent … Botman & Thiaw solid Jury is out on Wissa if we’re honest and Elanga …. 😱

Today’s reading pleasure is brought to you by yer man @yousef-1892.bsky.social in the box seat for THE SPECIAL as we prepare for our biggest game of the season so far v Man City in the League Cup semi first leg - enjoy every word - it’s bang on the money - #NUFC tf1892.substack.com/p/the-specia...

Villa away in the FA Cup 4th Round - tough draw but we've beaten them well in their place in recent times!! 💪 Game will take place the weekend of 14th/15th February 🗓️ #NUFC #FACup

New contract to 2030 for Sven Botman - good news - a quality player - been here since 2022 which seems mad. #NUFC

Man Utd - try not to laugh 😆

The fact that if you mention ‘the Entertainers’ every football fan knows who you mean 30 years later is a testimony to King Kev’s legacy. Long live the King!

Imagine being around Macclesfield this week? The town will be buzzing and yesterday will be written in folklore - like Blyth Spartans in the 70s. The scenes from Macclesfield were brilliant. The FAC is fantastic and one of the game’s Crown Jewels. The joy and pain of our game.

#NUFC support is exceptional - full houses all week just after Xmas and Tuesday will be packed as well. Fans stopping until the end and sticking with the team despite frustrating performances. The support is a massive part of why we’re getting results at SJP. Best in the country bar none.

Excellent work from @worflags.org.uk yesterday - is now the time to name the East Stand the KEVIN KEEGAN stand in honour of the man who saved and transformed #NUFC - our leader 🏁

The end of a fruitful week of results ends in glorious, maddening chaos as #NUFC progress into R4 of the FAC - Ed Cole with the match report from the stands of SJP - tf1892.substack.com/p/tf-match-r...

Well done Macclesfield Town beating Crystal Palace today. It’s the biggest giantkilling cup upset in history. It must mean the annual footage of Hereford beating #NUFC back in the 80s is consigned to the history books surely.

My god Newcastle United you’ll see me off one of these days #NUFC

It’s Saturday, we have the FAC at 3pm and at SJP - here’s THE SPECIAL - Matthew Philpotts is full of enthusiasm for the world’s greatest cup competition that #NUFC has won x6 times - this is a fantastic read - enjoy it tf1892.substack.com/p/the-specia...

Third round of the FAC tomorrow - Saturday at 3pm and at home. A packed SJP. A pint of two with your pals before and after. It’ll be cold and raw. English football at its absolute best. We are blessed.

Up The Workers - enjoy your weekend comrades ✊🏻🏁

Three years ago today I was about to undergo a quadruple heart bypass after a heart attack. Get your cholesterol checked. Don’t waste your life on a job killing you with stress. I can assure you the company you work for don’t give a toss about you or your family. Work to live, nowt more ❤️

Paul Karter previews tomorrow’s FAC 3rd round tie with Bournemouth at SJP - a detailed, informative and entertaining read ahead of another big home game for the Mags - #NUFC tf1892.substack.com/p/tf-preview...

I expect there will be an opportunity to give some minutes to players this Saturday - Trippier, Livramento, Ramsey, Willock … possibly also Alex Murphy too. Shame about Lascelles, Krafth being out the picture at the moment. Important we win the game and are in the hat for the 4th Round.

Sandro’s bairn is a Geordie 🏁🏁🏁

Wasn’t last night great? A proper old skool match - back and forward - frustrating, emotional - great clubs with loyal, noisy, passionate fans with local identities and a fixture with loads of heritage to it. Football? Who doesn’t love it man?

Kevin Keegan kindly supported us during his tenure as @newcastleunited.com manager - and spent time with one of our earliest supporters, Johnny Bliss from Washington, when he was facing cancer. Everyone at our Foundation wishes Kevin all the very best following his own cancer diagnosis.

The morning after the night before. Arguably our greatest comeback at St. James' Park since Arsenal in 2011, when Cheick Tioté smashed home an 87th minute equaliser having been 4-0 down at HT. It wasn't pretty but football is all about moments like this. Let's enjoy it 🤌 #NUFC

Long Live The King

We’ve won 3 hard games on the spin - not great performances but we’ve dragged ourselves over the finishing line and collected the points. We’ve risen up the table. We need to build confidence and momentum. We’re getting there .. it’s hard going … Cups next … keep on, keepin’ on …

Lewis Miley is Total Football

Never in any doubt 😆🏁

Love to KK and his family 🏁

Massive opportunity to do ourselves a lot of good tonight with a win over Leeds. 3 pts gets us moving up the table, builds more confidence and momentum. Probably the noisiest away support to come to SJP this season so we need to be properly up for it in the stands. HWTL 🏁

Last 3⃣ against Leeds 👀 Three consecutive draws since their return to the Premier League back in 2022, if ever there was a time to put a big W on the board it's tonight 🔥 #NUFC | #NEWLEE

It’s match-day, it’s Leeds at SJP and it’s Scott Robson with THE SPECIAL for your reading pleasure with other stuff from TF and others we think you’ll like - hope you enjoy it - #NUFC tf1892.substack.com/p/the-specia...

Hot toddy to see off the cold I’ve got brewing - another couple of these and the cold won’t be able to get up the stairs to bed. Genius 👍🏁
