Newcastle are on a run of four straight wins as they head to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United. The Red Devils have struggled this term sitting in the bottom half of the table. Even a managerial swap to Ruben Amorim has failed to pay dividends thus far.

Eddie Howe will hope to have at least one of Kieran Trippier or Tino Livramento available. Trippier came off in the win over Aston Villa, though it may have been fatigue related. Tino missed the match through illness. With Emil Krafth out, having a natural right-back available will be key.

Other than right-back, Howe is expected to field an unchanged team. The lads have been simply sensational over the previous four fixtures. Hopefully that continues to close out 2024 on a high note.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to catch the match today due to my job. This post can stand in for the matchday one.

Howay The Lads!

Got back from me travels this afternoon, a cheeky little 3700km of driving. Back in plenty of time for the match on current form we should win but if only that’s how footy actually worked, it is Newcastle after all so always expect the unexpected. It’ll be a tough game so I’ll go an easy 3 nowt away win 😆
Tbh I’d settle for the worst game ever shown on telly if it meant we won 1 nowt.

8th February, 2024

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
