Newcastle - Very Tired + Hungover + Smelly = Dedication.

So, after landing at Luton airport in the morning, we were soon on our way to the next match. It didn't matter if we were tired and hungover. We are HARDCORE! (If I can claim so myself!)


Brinner, with a slightly better looking eye was getting stuck into some of the treasures we brought home with us. We picked up Woof and he soon got involved with the german food.



A de-tour via Leeds was in order where we picked up our two festival-goers,




Spoony:





And Ramp:




As you can imagine they were both pretty tired and hungover too after 5 days of festivities at Leeds Festival.




They were pretty smelly too. Nice. (Erm why did we agree to do this again!?!)






The "Where I am" look:




I'm sure they were still pissed!




We soon passed the angel of the north:




And found ourselfs in newcastle!

(Sadly there was no fog on the tyne)






We parked the car, where Spoony decided to pass out !



We then headed off to the nearest pub as anyone who's tired and hungover would do.




Oh yeah, there was a game on today!

We set off from the pub and headed to the ground:





And the stadium really is as impressive as everyone tells you. So expect lots of photos...(Sorry!)







There's no mirrors hear I promise!




















Out of no-where it started to POUR with rain just before kick-off. My idea of staying in the pub for an extra pint definately looked like a bad idea now! Thank god we were undercover.






The teams come out..







The Match;


Well Leicester played amazing in the first half but couldn't quite convert the play into goals. As I'd predicted at half time Newcastle came out for the 2nd half, and city didn't. The game finished 1-0 to newcastle. The away fans had seen a decent performance and left knowing the team had done them proud.



On the way home, we got lost leaving the city and we think we crossed the Tyne Bridge. Here was our attempt to phot it in the dark and rain whilst driving!










A very long and extreamly tiring journey home but all well worth it. (I think!)
What a weekend.
