@StanCollymore I’m a Newcastle fan but I only see Gordon as an athlete loads of my friends used to disagree with me. Like O’Reilly and think Rice is wasted taking these floated set pieces that often don’t beat the first man get him in the box with his height

@OllieHolt22 Totally agree Oliver. Even though I don’t always agree with you it was nice to speak to you a while ago at St James’ Park a while ago at least you mixed at half time and sorry for accidentally knocking your chips over 🫣

@henrywinter Although people who know more than me rate him I see Anthony Gordon as an athlete who plays on the wing whereas John Robertson was a winger. Massive difference. And a great winger.

@JimWhite Well done Jim especially when there’s so much booze around at corporate hospitality

@CraigHope_DM Wish he wouldn’t shout Brun-oooo when he reads the team out à la Alan Robson even though I like Bruno

@CraigHope_DM How do you become a big player? Should be on performances alone. If you’re lauded as a superstar shouldn’t count against you if the performances match same as a lesser hyped player should only be judged on performance. Worked for Guardiola.

@TheatreRoyalNew I was in the Gang Show for a week in 1977. It was fantastic to be a part of it. As it was the 40th year of the Newcastle Gang Show we received a telegram from Bing Crosby who died later that year.

@JohnOHareOK @ThroughBWEyes @ToonArmyAmerica @NCSL1892 Great to meet you John

[Graeme Ford @GraemeFord8]

@CraigHope_DM Interesting point of view I’d not thought of that in that way but you’re obviously right plus he’s a Rolls Royce of a footballer

[Graeme Ford @GraemeFord8]

@CraigHope_DM Balanced consistent view

@TFMick1892 Saying cringe like that is worse

@BingCrosby I was in the 40th anniversary of the Newcastle Gang Show at the Theatre Royal in 1977 and we received a telegram from Bing Crosby
