WOOHOO! Nuff said.

That was one of the most wierdest games I've seen.

Especially when they started to cut to the Kiev-Juve game.


It looks like the NEwcastle players didn't know what to do. It was rediculous when Viana took all day to get off the field for a substitution, waisting time when it was 2-2. Feyenoord were more urgent for the play to continue, looked like Newcastle were happy playing in UEFA Cup until they scored in the last minute.

Dyer and Bellamy played excellent, while Hugo was a pile of sh1t even if he did score.

Congratulations to The Magpies!! As a Man City supporter I don't often get excited over other teams success but I was out of my seat when Bellamy got the winner!! I think a lot of fans over here have a soft spot for Toon,my daughter...(a brain-washed Blue!!) from a VERY early age new about them,after City! I always asked her "Who plays in Black & White?" & she'd say "Newcaddle Nited!" Brilliant come-back in the 1st stage & good luck for the next!!

I seldom post over here since I'm just an ignorant yank.

But:
F' yeah!

People were wondering what the hullabaloo was coming from my cube when I was able to bring up the result.
As bad as the lads looked against Arsenal, I didn't think there was a shot in hell of making the next phase. I love when I'm pessimistic and wrong.

What a match!!! Was it on American TV??? I got the Newcastle audio feed and it sounded like a home match with all the noise the newcastle supporters were making.

This definitely cements Newcastle's place as most entertaining team in England.

YYYYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Couldnt believe this when I saw it. I dont think stupid ESPN covers the Wednesday matches nemore but the second round after that start is AMAZING!!!!

[Bellars183]

Unbeliveable. Was desperate to try and get tv coverage here in Pennsylvania of my team, but all failed. Was stuck watching the skysports live scores with anticipation, and ending in pure ecstacy. Can't imagine how good it would hae een to be at home in the bigg market! Amazing lads, bring on Real, Barca and Man U!
Also any makems out there,"we'll be thinking of you's when you're playing at the heights of burnley and preston north end and we're entertaining the creme de la creme at the bernabau!"
