I remember back in 1973 the blackouts. Schools were only open for a few hours on Monday morning for you to go in & collect work & hand in the 0revious weeks. There was s shortage of candles. I remember mam & dad buying a paraffin heater & having to walk miles with dad to the nearest petrol station to see if they had any paraffin left. We had ducted gas central heating but it wouldn't work as the fans were obviously electric. We'd sometimes sit in the kitchen with gas oven lit & the door open. I've tried explaining this to the my grown up kids but they've no idea what's coming

He's back at SJP for the 2nd time today apparently

We managed to get through to the next round with what was essentially a Bruce team. He had to bring his "own" players on to rescue the tie

A nice win tonight will set us up nicely to play "The Wolfs" on Sunday

Ha ha ha I still think Liverpool will stick it to them. I'm expecting Manchester fans on the pitch after Liverpool knock their 3rd one in.

Apparently Maguire & Ronaldo are dropped to the bench tonight

If the match is disrupted & called off Klopp is calling for all 3 points being awarded to Liverpool.

Hoping Liverpool thrash that wee small team from Manchester tonight.

I couldnt help but think about this after the game & how right he was. “Don’t ever give up on your club. Keep supporting it, it’s your club and trust me, one day you will get your club back and it will be everything you wanted it to be" "Newcastle United is bigger than anyone. It hurts I know, but just keep going. He is only one man we are a city, a whole population. Trust me.” Kevin Keegan

9 months ago we played City at SJP. That day we went 0-1 down after 5 minutes & got thrashed 0-4. Today was so much different they dug in & played excellent. It was a cracking game & I'm well pleased with a point.

Wow a cracking game like that & Sky start the Wankfest over Liverpool Man Utd

Same again 2nd half please

I'm looking forward to the game. But we all know the pre match build up will be a "Wankfest" over Man Utd v Liverpool tomorrow night

I'm pleased our new owners won't be held to ransom regarding potential player valuations. But I honestly thought players would have been tripping over themselves to join the club. Given the ambitions the owners have for the club.

@ewerk its not going to be a 0-0 game so we might as well give it a go

I'd rather do that than sit back & get beaten, arse raped & corpse burnt

Take the game to them don't sit back & let them come at you. Yeah we'll probably get beat but at least have a go at them

Lucky point, crying out for a striker. But we all know that

Got it cheers mate

Any rivers lads ?

Win on Saturday & we'll have 6 points. They same number we had when Howe took over after 13 games last season. Oh aye we we're bottom of the table then as well.

90 mins are saying we're going to have a go for Paqueta & Dieng. Let's see what happens

Gordonmay not be a popular signing but we have to trust Howe. Look what he's done with Big Joe. Look how he's now got Maxi running & passing. IF we sign Gordon im sure Howe will get the very best out of him.

Apparently we're going to have another go at getting Gordon from Everton

Great first half we just need a goal
