Think it’s going to be a bit mental in Newcastle tonight
I've seen pictures of queues to get into the bar at the ground, St James ,at 9am this morning. It's been a long day for a lot of people.

They'll be ringing up pubs in Sunderland asking for spare kegs. They won't be needing them, they will be north of the Tyne 🍻🤣

It’s great for them - I don’t think anyone will begrudge them the win ( unless you’re from Sunderland)

Hope they have a great night
 
What this has shown, how important it is that different teams win the cup competitions. Winning the league is incredibly tough for anyone bar a few teams. Cups though...........teams need to go for it. It's massive for fans who aren't used to success. The level of joy and appreciation is huge.

How great is it for Dan Burn - Geordie lad who was superb

Hope city don't win the cup, want to see as many different winners as possible. It's great for football

Seeing how genuinely happy the Newcastle fans were to win was properly heart warming. My bunch won something a couple of years back, and it was wonderful.
The same teams expecting to win every year is a bit dull, tbh.

That's the problem with financial "fair" play being so weighted to keep the rich clubs rich making it harder every year for someone to break that group and keep it interesting

Newcastle have mega rich owners but can't just do a Chelski or a citeh and really shake the league up a bit.

It seems that Forest never read your post or Villa last year. Also Utd are a rich club, it’s not going to well for them either.

Possibly Teeside even....... nothing bigger than your local side doing well & by hell the NE has been well short for many, many years. I'll never forget the late 50's & early 60's in Bishop when the town & region was just humming with success. It's now, like so many others in our land, a 'failed' Market Town with nowhere to go & not easy to see any way out of it. Looking like Leeds could be enjoying the same uplift if they can maintain form.
