This. All of it 👇

Really, really good away win, that. 4 wins from last 5 on the road. Am sure the Howe out brigade told me season was over a fortnight ago... BUT 6 points off 5th. All of the top 9 (with exception of Arsenal) now played home & away. Still plenty to play for in the league! #NUFC

@northumbriana Me too, Dan. A work of art.

How many times have I watched the Osula goal from last night?

I don’t think we were even the third best team in that game. Absolute fair play to Ireland. #ENGvIRE

Newcastle United will be in Monday's FA Cup fifth round draw after beating Aston Villa 3-1. But the game will most likely be remembered for the dreadful officiating: ▪️ Aston Villa's goal should not have stood. Tammy Abraham had mistimed his run and was a yard offside when the free-kick was delivered ▪️ Lucas Digne's late challenge on Jacob Murphy only brought a yellow card rather than a red. It left Murphy bleeding ▪️ Chris Kavanagh awarded a free-kick outside the area when Digne handled inside the penalty box 📝 @GeorgeCaulkin @ChrisDHWaugh 🔗 nytimes.com/athletic/70391…

This guy explains a detail you might’ve missed in Back to the Future. Early on, Marty meets Doc at Twin Pines Mall. Later in the movie, it’s called Lone Pine Mall because of this…

Tomorrow is the first anniversary of Peter Mandelson's big pre-Washington interview, when he claimed questions about Epstein were "an FT obsession" adding: "You can all f*** off." ft.com/content/085e20…

@Graemethedean That first song was probably about a once cherished car he owned 😉

Steel Rover almost as good as Steel River! 😃

@MsiDouglas Corrupt is the word you need to use there.

Disaster. Less than a minute of football played and PSG have a penalty. #nufc

posted on substack by a person named Teri Leigh I’m writing this from Minnesota. These are just a few things that may not be making the national or international news. a beloved local donut shop Glam Doll Donuts across the street from where Alex Pretti died turned into a warming house and medic center for protestors building and maintaining the memorial site. a 70yo independent bookstore owner DreamHaven Books down the street expressed his pain on camera, walked through a tear gas cloud, and his website crashed less than 24 hours later from too much business and donations. the day after tear gas bombs destroyed a N-Mpls neighborhood sending a 6mo old baby to the hospital, at daybreak, a small church community cleaned up the mess of pepper balls, tear gas containers and trash so the neighbors didn’t have to wake up to the memories. a local independent journalist Mercado Media pounding the streets everyday reporting things from the ground had a testicle removed and showed up two days later to walk with 75,000+ community members to walk the streets in -20 degree weather. a local sex-positive adult-store The Smitten Kitten has completely transformed into a donation and distribution center. a local pizza place Wrecktangle Pizza raised over $83K in less than a few days to support families that are sheltering in place. tow-truck companies are donating their services to clean up the accidents and abandoned vehicles left by ICE and the city is waiving impound fees. local multi-faith spiritual leaders are spearheading sit-ins at corporate headquarters such as Target and USBank to have deeper conversations with CEOs and boards of directors about community relief. social workers are taking in children who came home from school with both their parents “disappeared.” animal shelters and pet-fostering agencies are rescuing pets left alone for days or weeks after their humans were detained. every restaurant, church, karate dojo, dance studio, school, barber shop, and other small business has created their own underground grassroots supportive network to protect their neighbors, get people to and from work, and raise funds to pay everyday bills. women who are moms and work full-time jobs are donning reflective vests in shifts to stand watch at bus stops, city parks, and grocery store parking lots ini sub-zero temps to bear witness before going home to tuck their babies in at night. the MN National Guard offered donuts, coffee, and hot cocoa to peaceful protesters the day after Alex Pretti died, reminding community that we are all in this together and they are here to keep the peace. These are just a few examples. Stories like this are happening in the hundreds here, every single day! Community is EVERYTHING! This Substack community and the MN-Strong resistance has saved my mental health these last weeks. Thank you for reading. Thank you for giving a shit. I love you.

@northumbriana @Jen86_north Just can’t see it myself, Dan 😉

I had been quite pleased with this tweedy ensemble and then @Jen86_north said I looked like Mr Bean 😑

@PaulBristow_ I was getting excited/carried away with 25mins to go! Hope you’re having a fab festive break, Paul. Shame it hasn’t led to a late Bristolian present to the Red Bulls 😉

Enough from Newcastle to give @adamsonmark some optimism!

Strange match, world class player at 15 the difference in 1st half then another at 1 in the 2nd - but decent Ashton Gate day in the end #BRIvNEW

David Schwimmer? As in Ross? Yes, but what does Joey think about it?

Genuinely awful attitude, performance and tactics. #NUFC

Into the next round of the Carabao Cup! 🙌🙌

BIG WIN AT ST. JAMES' PARK! 😍

Hosting the @MercuryPrize in the North East is about way more than just one night and an award 🎶 It’s about inspiring the kids in our region to pick up an instrument, get on stage, learn to produce or DJ and create their own music. It was fantastic chatting to @_MaiaBeth who grew up in Washington about her @My_Metro journeys to gigs and what she thinks needs to change in the industry. I’m so excited for Maia- it’s so great to see someone local go on to become a successful DJ and presenter. Not only is she taking part in the Mercury Fringe, helping to promote the music industry in the region with @GeneratorNE , but she will be uncovering all the goss from the red carpet at the ceremony on Thursday night on @BBCFOUR4 🪩
