Sadly in some parts of the country you don’t pick a football team to support, rather you are lumbered with it like an enigmatic albatross slung around your neck. My particular albatross is actually black and white, oh and a magpie in the form of Newcastle United.

Quite how we’ve managed to make such a mess of one of England’s biggest teams is a mystery but with 8 games left there is still light at the end of the tunnel. The only problem is we’re horrid away from home, haven’t won a home game since Dec and all the teams tantalisingly close to us all play each other whereas we have the joys of Liverpool, Chelsea, Villa as well as a local derby against Boro which guarantees to be one of the worst Premier League games ever.

Logic is telling me that we’re stuffed, but this is football and if we can get 11 players on the pitch who will compete and fight like Geordies then we can get out of this mess.

If not then we are potentially going to have the most highly paid Championship side ever.

Potentially on the 25th and 26th May I may not be he happiest chappy!
