The last time Newcastle won a domestic trophy was a week before the Warsaw Pact was announced.

Genuinely, if we win this? The Saudis could set up a detention centre on the outskirts of Hexham and most of us will turn a blind eye…

That's not the sort of foreshadowing we need right now

This is exactly why I follow you

Well done, the lads!

Also shortly before the last time Germany re-armed.

The last time Orient won at Blackpool was 6 months before the Wall Street Crash.

Does that mean this will be the week Nato is dissolved?

⬆️ More interesting than anything Peter Drury has said all afternoon

Nice

We await our geopolitical moment and then pounce

Gary Neville said the same thing at half time, alongside a seasonal reference to the Prague Spring

So is history re-writing itself in more ways than one? Or does history never really repeat itself exactly?

There’s so much excitement in our house (just outside of Newcastle!) the streets are empty and cheers are echoing down the street! Lovely!

This is the kind of niche reference I’m hoping Carragher will use in the post-match analysis.

I mean this in a nice way but you are the only person I follow who would make that connection. Superb!

that's insane
