And wins a game for the Toon.

O.K. so it was for the reserves.

Niall and Biffa went where Softie (living up to his name) wouldn't, Kingston Park to brings the news that the NUFC second string made it into the final of the Northumberland Senior Cup.

Apparently the reserves were 2-0 down with ten minutes to go, when Maric decided to earn half a weeks wages and reminded Bobby we have some one else to back up Shearer and Dunc besides the Georgian Loon. Or so he was hoping.

Sorry folks but I did have to laugh when I saw the weather on Sky this morning:) Having said that it's a bit chillier here, down to 14 degrees. Hope it picks up in time for my camping trip ayt the end of the month. Off to a beautiful small island (4km2. It's actually part of Tokyo but it takes 10 hours to get to by Ferry and the population density isn't as high. Bliss pure bliss.
