Here’s the video of yesterday’s game when Newcastle drew 1-1 with Tottenham in Melbourne over 90 minutes and then won 5-4 on penalties.
The video includes the penalties being scored predominantly by our youngsters.

An update on my health situation - we have terminated the PluVicto treatment halfway through, because of the severity of the side effects - diarrhea, vomiting, and acid reflux.
And there was no evidence the treatment was having any positive effect in stopping the prostate cancer from spreading in the bones.
There are no treatments left for me to go on.I will go into home hospice care now and will have a hospice nurse visit me at home regularly to ensure I am as comfortable as possible and we will treat the side effects of the treatments I have had.
It's down the final stretch now, and I have run out of treatments, and nature will now take its course.
I hope Newcastle can get many wins this season from now on, and I am at peace with all of this.
Thanks for all your help through the years - it's very much appreciated

Comment #123From Sanjay to avoid accusations of plagiarism š
“The Jarrod Bowen and Dominic Calvert-Lewin links to #NUFC are interesting.
Jarrod Bowen is a dream signing for all of us, but one that I’ve always firmly had in the “unattainable” category given that he could easily be our record signing. But *if* we can get it done, then he’s the best RW on the domestic market. He should be Salah’s successor at Liverpool. As I’ve said before on here – Mbeumo should be the next option.
Calvert-Lewin is bound to have many scratching heads – and although it’s not an ideal signing, I think it’s logical. We’d love to have two top CFs competing with each other (for example Sesko), but the reality is it’s probably hard (but certainly not impossible) to execute this.
It’s hard to convince any top CF to play behind the 3rd best CF in the world in Alexander Isak. Calvert-Lewin gives us a slightly different profile, more aerial threat – and he would be satisfied to play behind Isak.
He runs the channels well, he’ll help with set-pieces at both ends, his hold up play is strong – and let’s not forget how good he was between 2019 and 2021. He’s still only 27, and Howe would feel like we can get him back to being a 10+ goals a season CF, especially now that he’s just had a fairly injury-free season.
I personally really enjoyed watching DCL in his prime, and 3 years ago he was England second choice CF to Kane. If we can get him back to those levels, which is feasible – then it’s potentially a really opportunistic signing.
I’d honestly be quite excited to see what we could get from him given his skillset and ability to give us different attacking solutions”
I don’t think many will agree with that mind.

Newcastle United:
Mark Gillespie (c), Harrison Ashby, Ciaran Thompson, Alex Murphy, Dylan Charlton, Travis Hernes, Joe White, Jay Turner-Cooke, Ben Parkinson, Amadou Diallo, Garang Kuol.

Comment #129Iām glad weāre only playing the kids. Hopefully Kuol can shine and get some confidence. That Hernes has a big future if he can tap into his huge potential.

Comment #131Jail on DCL…
I agree with Sanjay’s assessment.
I was in support of signing him when we were supposedly interested last year but it all depends on the fee.
He was a Ā£60M+ player under Ancelloti but I reckon Ā£40M tops now.
DCL wouldn’t top my list but he defo has the skill and ability to get back to top form under Eddie and he gives us an aerial threat and hold up play that neither Isak or Wilson have.
I think he is one of those players that most fans would moan about if we signed him… but the tune might change once Eddie works his magic and he is playing in an attacking team with wingers to supply quality crosses like AG and Barnes.
I think there might be legs in the rumour.

If the kids get hammered it could do a lot of harm to their confidence, especially Koul.
We are getting beat already apparently

Comment #135DCL has had an injury free season and would be a decent option to bring in. He can give us a different dimension and is effective in the air at set pieces. Wouldnāt be bothered to play the second striker role.
Heād be a target right from the outset of the negative naysayers crowd though

Comment #144From Magpie Media, (not sure how trustworthy he is) this is also doing the rounds in Spain now:
ā BREAKING EXCLUSIVE ? – #NUFC are in advanced discussions with Valencia over the signing of 23-year old goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili.
A fee of around ā¬35million (Ā£29.8m) is now verbally agreed between the clubs – of which 10% is set to go to Mamardashviliās former club, Dinamo Tbilisi.
Newcastle and Mamardashvili himself are both pushing for a swift conclusion to the transfer, and itās hopef that the move will be wrapped up before the start of EURO 2024 – a tournament where Mamardashvili will feature for his nation Georgia.
Personal terms are not expected to be a problem, either – as the 6ā6ā shot-stopper is keen on the move to Tyneside. Heās āenthusedā by the Magpiesā project and at the opportunity to play in the Premier League. ā

Comment #147The nufc team is too inexperienced against an all stars team including internationals. We could do with some experienced players – interesting whether the likes of Trippier, Anderson etc. will come on 2nd half.
Also Eddie Howe vindicated what some of us were saying yesterday that they hadn’t got Kuol’s loan right!!

Comment #148Love the club and love just about everything the new owners have done to date but I think they have called this one wrong. Flew the entire first team squad to Australia to promote our name and reputation. Then fielded effectively a youth team. The Aussie comments on social media are building up and are massively negative. Lots of people paid good money, travelled, etc and are very disappointed. Shame.

Comment #150I don`t usually get excited about a goalkeeper signing but ive got to admit that this Gorgian fella looks the dogs bollocks.
It`s going to be an exciting summer that`s for sure .and it seems a few other clubs supporter are watching our movements judging by some of the vlogs iv`e watched.
Well, Paqueta looks like he is in the doo doo big time, Tonali got a 10 months ban, Paquata should get double that , seems he was betting on himself getting booked in certain matches, and did.

Comment #151hkgeordie
I thought good earlier on that we hadnāt fielded a strong team as the lads could get injured etc. they may have voiced their concerns and displeasure of having to play this tournament in the first place and Eddie has said look we will play the first game against spurs with a strong side and the kids in the second game.
But if there is a backlash of people wanting to see our first team play and spent good money of course they will be negative about it so this exercise may well backfire. Shame yes!

Comment #154Minteh/Kuol
Two completely different situations for me.
Minteh. Had played in a european legue for a season or so.
6M pound transfer.
Kuol. No 1st team football of any great note and was a 300 grand transfer.
He was essentially a young prospect. I would have kept him at the club just like many of the other young lads.

Comment #157If the rumours are actually true and we do get Mamardashvili signed quickly, then an early window with Tosin, Kelly, and Mamardashvili is one hell of a strong signal of intent from the club. That would be 3 players that have the potential of changing our back line in a hugely positive manner.
Early signings in the transfer window ensures that theyāre bonding with the squad during preseason etc.
