I booked a day off work and was going up without a ticket if we were still in contention. Probably won't go now.

Decent turn out all told. Lived there for 4 years, so can recommend The Trent House or The Strawberry pre-match. Will be full of home fans, but as long as you don't act the twat, it's all good. The Hotspur (in front of the university) is also a good shout. Same rules apply. Final nugget would be Latifs (on Clayton Street) for a post match curry.

I would have actually preferred it if Newcastle still had a chance. They would have been more nervy and forced to attack us (and we can be devastating on the counter).

Now I fear we have a situation where Poch has told the players finishing above Arsenal is no big deal and where the Newcastle players can have a Premier League swansong and play without fear (and no doubt some will be trying to put themselves in the shop window.

Sadly I can't see us winning there. A draw is as good as it gets, which would be good enough for us to stumble over the line to 2nd place.

I see your logic, Sevens, and it's one of those arguments that cuts both ways, but on balance I'd prefer to play Newcastle when they're already down and take the risk that they'll play better with freedom/without pressure rather than go there with them needing to get a result against us to stay up. Hard to say until after we've played them!

I'm heading up this morning from Leicester to see the band The Heavy. Is anyone going with 2 spare tickets? Where's everyone drinking?

Keep an eye on @Hotspurtickets on twitter, a few keep popping up, but a lot of people in the same boat as you.

There's a few pubs opposite the station that away fans go, A Head Of Steam, The Lounge and O'Neills the main ones.

Could be right. However, if that was the scenario the toon army would be well up for it and be behind the team to get them pumped, now that they are relegated the fans' focus and mood will have changed, for some of them it'll be a chance to protest and make their feelings felt towards the players and board, could be a poisonous atmosphere. So, if our players are focused on the task in hand I can see them getting the job done.
