4 years ago, I wore the Newcastle jersey for the first time. At that moment, I hadn’t realized that not only was I about to become a Newcastle player, but I was also about to become a Geordie.
You might think « nice Goodbye message » but the sentiment runs deeper than any words I could say, from the very first months that I met the people of this city, I truly understood them and embraced their unwavering passion, which is why it was so important for me to give my all and if this meant to play injured or even not making statistics, I didn’t give a sh** as long as it would help my team.
Believe me, I fell for Newcastle, I had great opportunities to leave during dark days, but that was too late I was already in love, I wanted, I needed, I had to stay for helping my team to save the club from Premier League relegation because it meant the world for me.
Of course during those dark days some may have had their doubts, but I always believed in this club and look where we are today, it's just so beautiful. I'm leaving Newcastle as it should always have been and that's my greatest trophy because I was a part of it.
A deep thank you to ALL of you, my team mates, the loyal fans, the staff, the Club, etc… I’ve seen all your messages, thank you and even though this chapter has ended, the story never stops. Newcastle is home now, I'll continue to be your biggest supporter, I'll watch every game and as long as the club keeps winning I'll be the happiest man in the world… and for sure you will see me again 👀
I love you, I love you sincerely, I love you like a Geordie brother. Once a Geordie, always a Geordie 🖤🤍
Deal DONE! Thank you, thank you to all of the @NUFC fans - this truly would not have happened without you. Big job on our hands but onwards and upwards we march.
Howay The Lads!
The Premier League, Newcastle United Football Club and St James Holdings Limited have today settled the dispute over the takeover of the club by the consortium of PIF, PCP Capital Partners and RB Sports & Media.
Early reports from @beINSPORTS that Christin Eriksen is ALIVE.
He's left the stadium in a stable condition.
Thank god for that. Thank god for the doctors and for the referee who acted so swiftly to save his life. #DEN
Kick off times. Ticket Prices. Funding for the women's game. Lasting Anti-racism initiatives. Proper wealth distribution. Reforms on tribunals on the poaching of academy players. Free to watch games. So much more. Keep going. Make the game you want.
Watching Wolfsburg's Paulo Otávio commit the season's most blatant red card to save a definite goal is, admittedly, brilliant. (Even better that it was the 91st minute and they were losing 2–1 anyway)
@liamtatters would nutmeg dinner ladies for a laugh. Sacked it off for a life on the drink and to mug off middle aged blokes on a sunday night at 6 a side
