I'll be up but god knows if i'll make it till the end.

[Lidl]

f*** that! I'll just watch the 20 second highlights if we even have that much

[TJR]

I'm going to attempt to stay up for it. Not sure if I should have a nap first though. My worry is that if I do I won't wake up for the match. But then if I don't I'll probably not make it through the full game.

[Donkey Toon]

I'm gonna try and stay up for it. Hope the commentator is as good as that bloke for the Kansas game. Can't remember his name but he was brilliant.

I think you might be thinking of Neil Sika although that was against Columbus Crew. Sika was brilliant.

Though any commentary will do me after the lack of it for the Atlas game.

That was the fella

Shola and his lollipops, Alan Smith Greco-Roman wrestling in the centre circle and all those crosses from the end-zone. Brilliant!

And yeah that was Columbus you are right.

Yeah pretty hard to stay interested without. Surprising that considering the amount of stick we give to most commentators.

Alan Smith's Greco-Roman wrestling that game was probably one of my favourite Newcastle memories of the last decade or so, I've never been more glad to stay up until 3am listening to a radio stream of a football match

I'm taking the bold move of napping beforehand, watching the game, then sleeping again before work in the morning.

Let's see how that goes.

It seemed a happier time. We were so innocent then.

[clayton93]

Going to pass on this like. Will just catch up with Willo's mistakes in the morning.

[Jaiston]
