Following 30 mile drive home after NUFC 3 AVFCOfficial 3 - Amazed to see half dozen recognisable people in black and white in local Wawa NUFC
Amazed to see half dozen NUFC fans in local Wawa – 30 mile drive home after Newcastle 3 Aston Villa 3Amazed to see half dozen NUFC fans in local Wawa – 30 mile drive home after Newcastle 3 Aston Villa 3In anticipation of what turned out to be the Newcastle 3 Aston Villa 3 match, I decided to break my 40+ year rule of only wearing jerseys of retired players. And, wanting to do my part for mitigating FFP, I decided to order my jersey directly from the club rather than a US site.
In addition to the immensely talented Bruno G and several other reinforcements, that transfer window also brought home Big Dan Burn. A dedicated player who bleeds black and white. You can see in his smile the boy who watched from the stands, like millions of other boys around the world, dreaming about scoring for his team and making his family and friends proud. I imagine someday he will return to the stands and root for the Toon, just as he had done as a kid.
Fortunately, the match was a double header so one ticket also got you into the earlier Brentford / Fulham match. The temperatures were 30-31 degrees all afternoon, so the beer was flowing. Not so much so that that Philly’s one-of-a-kind in-stadium courthouse and jail needed to be reopened but enough to notice that some fans had been out in the sun a little too long.
Unai Emery clearly came to Philly for a win. Eddie, on the other hand, came to evaluate his team / squad. I appreciated Eddie’s approach to minutes, but I admit I almost blacked out when Paul Dummett lined up in midfield for what ended up being only the first 30 seconds of the second half. Sunday’s Villa line-up could easily be what we see the first match of the season.
