Was lucky enough to get a ticket through the ballot for the Dortmund game so, despite the result,
getting to see The Toon in the Champions League will live long in the memory for me.

The overhyped De Zerbi leaving Brighton at the end of the season.

Let's hope he goes out with a win tomorrow.

I'm sure I just saw Jacob Murphy score for Oxford in the play-off final at Wembley.

Leeds spanking Norwich.

Norwich have sacked David Wagner this morning.

Hall!

Feck, feck, feck!

Double bollocks, Chelsea 2-0 up.

Bollocks!

Get in Gordon!

WTF!

2-1 Toon.

Newcastle: Dubravka, Trippier, Krafth, Burn, Hall, Longstaff, Bruno Guimaraes, Anderson, J Murphy, Isak, Gordon. Subs: Schar, Dummett, Joelinton, Ritchie, Barnes, Pope, Almiron, White, A Murphy. Man Utd: Onana, Dalot, Casemiro, Evans, Wan-Bissaka, Mainoo, Amrabat, Diallo, McTominay, Garnacho, Fernan...

This is actually the most nervous I've been before a match all season. If we get a point, it will cement a minimum of 7th place and also mean it will be the first time since 1977 that we will finish above them. I honestly think we're going to **** things up though. We'll lose tonight and draw/lose ...

Doubt it will happen

I'm going to watch the match upstairs with a selection of beers, probably in a darkened room while my wife has the living room all to herself to watch her Korean drama The Glory.

Much the same for me but my wife will be watching Koreanation Street!

Yet another big game in a season full of big games! Wednesday sees the Magpies make their second visit of the season to Old Trafford, having already won 3-0 there in the Carabao Cup. It's an 8pm kick-off, live on Sky Sports. Following a 1-0 win at SJP in the first Premier League meeting, Eddie Howe'...

Just thought I'd tag these games on rather than create a separate midweek thread as they weren't originally designated as midweek games:-

Tue 14.05.2024:

Spurs 0-2 Manchester City (8pm) Sky

Wed 15.05.2024:

Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 Chelsea (7.45pm)
Manchester United 3-2 Newcastle (8pm) Sky

Disappointing.

Bugger!
