The supersonic Sonnenseestadion
For those of you who already subscribe to the FULL Sky Sports pack, they are offering ESPN free for three months which comes in especially handy as the game tonight is live on ESPN and so are our first two Premier League games of the season.
It is free, I’ve just done it myself, but you must make sure you give 31 days notice before the end of the three moth trial or else you’ll end up getting charged £10 a month for the channel. However, if the offer isn’t up your street then I’m sure you’ll be able to catch it online somewhere and I dare say the comments section below will have a few links where you will be able to watch the game so all is not lost.
Anyway game three of pre-season will see us travel deep into Austria to a place called Ritzing which is located close to the Hungarian border. The match was of course originally scheduled to be played in Hungary but for whatever reason the venue has been changed and the 4,000 capacity Sonnenseestadion will play host to the game instead.
Tim Krul is scheduled to make his first appearance of pre-season, as is Fabricio Coloccini, although Papiss Cisse hasn’t recovered from illness enough to feature. He is getting better though as he was pictured with the rest of the squad doing some “team building” the other day.
Hatem Ben Arfa and Yohan Cabaye are still on holiday after their participation at EURO 2012, Steven Taylor is training once again although is unlikely to feature while the whereabouts of Shane Ferguson are now known – he is on Tyneside as a precaution after picking up a minor groin problem and should link back up with the squad for their trip to Portugal in a week.
Fenerbahce are likely to take this fairly seriously and have some big hitting players that we need to be wary of. Dirk Kuyt and Moussa Sow are ones to watch and the pair will be looking to increase their sharpness ahead of their 3rd Round Champions League Qualifier against Romanian outfit FC Vaslui which will take place in ten days time.
Both teams should be starting to look a bit sharper although, much like we’ve seen in the previous two friendlies, I expect to see some rotation and for a fair amount of players to get a run out. Again I’m not overly concerned about the result and won’t get too disheartened/carried away whatever, but I would like to see a good display with some good performances thrown in for good measure.
Team news will be added below as soon as I can get my grubby hands on it…
Howay the lads!
Newcastle: Rob Elliot, Danny Simpson, Fabricio Coloccini, James Tavernier, Dan Gosling, Ryan Taylor, Sylvain Marveaux, Cheik Tiote, Gabriel Obertan, Haris Vuckic, Demba Ba
Subs: Steve Harper, Mike Williamson, Davide Santon, Jonas Gutierrez, Mehdi Abeid, Gael Bigirimana, Shola Ameobi, Sammy Ameobi, Papiss Cisse
Fenerbahce: Mert Gunok, Orhan Sam, Bekir Irtegun, Alex, Serdar Kesinal, Hasan Ali Kaldarim, Dirk Kuyt, Mehmet Topal, Cristian Baroni, Miroslav Stoch, Moussa Sow

Toonsy you pimping whore boy
I agree with Jay
I didn’t even realise Lille had sold Sow
i agree @ 2 and 3
I agree with Ice, JJ, Richie and FSOTC.
Didnt realise Kuyt had gone there, quite a strike-force with him and Sow. Will probably win the league next year.
Andy-They’re not as good as Baros and Elmander like
Newkie
Is that Fenebache or another Turkish side?
Andy-Galatasary mate
The fucking twatknackers!
I’m a full Sky Sports subscriber and the bastards never mentioned that offer to me when I rang up last Friday.
…must be a new offer.
Fargin bastwats.
Richie, our beloved club do send a new season ticket out each season don’t they?
ROD you what they say;shy men get nowt
Newkie
Aye, was struggling to remember another Turkish side. They were the ones that inquired about Ba but said he wasn’t as good as Elmander weren’t they?
Anyone know when the home strips go on sale?
Indeed Ice, in Sky’s defence though their Ts&Cs on the ESPN offer says “information correct as from 20th July” so I think this offer must’ve just appeared yesterday.
Nee wurries, I’ve just ended up paying 9 quid for the Monaco and Fenerbahce games. I’ll just take advantage of this offer on 1st August.
Good news all round for any Sky Sports subscribing Toon fans though!
ROD by the way mate hows the work going,somebody must have hired your talents by now
Andy-I know they were linked with him but I had no idea they said he wasn’t as good as Elmander?
Brilliant
Newkie
Aye apparently he wanted loads more than Galastray were willing to give him contract wise, fair-due Id want a lot of money to play in Turkey, and I wouldn’t even consider a Russian or Polish side if I was black, doesn’t matter what ya pay me, I’d say no.
When’s then French boys back like? The Euros finished donkeys ago and it’s not like they made it to the final or out?! … lazy bar Stewarts!!
Should be a good test for us tonight tho, I’d like to see Marv get a decent amount of game time tonight as well.
Is it 6.30pm(UK time) that it starts?
Sharpy
They’re finishing their holidays over the next couple of days, will play next pre-season game(after tonight).
SHARPY aye mate i want to see marv get a good run oot,taylor as well
Ice, cheers for asking asking mate, still not got a job. Keeping busy though, something’s gona drop soon I think. Got mi fingers in enough pies.
Done a few weeks freelance and got a couple of ‘self-employed’ jobs going on, also waiting to hear back from one company about a potential trial period which could lead to full-time, and I’ve got an interview on Wednesday with a new contact. I know they’re only interviewing me and one other as well so I’m halfway there on that one.
…it’s taking time, but my dogged persistence will get something eventually. Fucking difficult juggling all my financial commitments but I’ve managed to keep on top of it all by the hairs of my arse. Filled in more fucking forms this last 6months than I have in my whole life!
I’m off now mate anyway, most probably be back on talking utter shite later.
Thought Debuchy was meeting with Garcia for talks today, is the result of those talks known yet?
looking forward to this……go on nufc!!!!!
Richie glad to have you back with us
you didn’t need Jabba’s money anyway 
so I found another link for you for the game ESPN you tight git 
NUFC team and subs are up now
Apparently Cisse may also be named as a late sub?
Sharpy17@22 Cabaye was spotted with Debuchy house hunting in Benwell earlier this afternoon.
Isn’t he at the Jezzy Dean with everyone else including a dead Barnetta by now?
monchengladbach just equalized against Birmingham, want to see Clark do a good job there.
Good times
Toonsy
Barnetta’s not dead he’s a receptionist at the Dean now
I see we’re still playing a million midfielders, and Elliot
, didn’t we already learn he was rubbish?
Cisse is now on the bench also
so whos where in defence??
I’ve never met Barnetta, I stay at upper class hotels because I’m well posh
Toonsy@31
How come the fonts thicker on that post
raylor colo simpason tav
*simpson
Andy @ 41 its for thicker people
Toonsy
.
So he’s got over his man-flu? I tell you that can be deadly, women don’t know our pain
Dave
Troy and Aussie aren’t around
Andy – Because it was an update
Because he wanted it to stand out andy
Best of luck rods
Cheers Toonsy
Dub
Now your taking the piss
Well ,I’m alright I’m with Virgin and you get ESPN free if you got a large package
Thicker, just like my gargantuan helmet
Turkish heed the balls

Kim
If only I had Virgin
Andy
This is taking the piss
I was going to do each letter a different colour but couldn’t be arsed

Kim @ 50
Jay Jay @ 51 Richie told me you are a Helmet only an Xtra small one
Toonsy Don’t be
meanSorry andy
Toonsy
I refer Dub back to 59
ah toonsy ya fecker. suber/sub-script dont work
Andy @ 53 what would you do with one
Dub
A big hug for Andy
Toonsy hows the wee man doing all good I hope
Toonsy@52 Bit ott for a friendly that
still I like the passion . 
No way Big Dave, Richietoon was in total awe of me as you’d expect.
Dave
I wouldnt bloody know
I’m rage quitting
Nah I wouldn’t, be bored as feck if I didn’t come on here, I have no life after all
Andy stay of the fertilizers
Just went on one of the links, is American football supposed to be on ESPN 15 min before the match
Dave
Aye thats probably stunting my love life
oh and Andy all good things come to they that wait
Though my personality is blooming as a result
Andy ,It’s ozzie rules footie
Dave
Is that a response to 70 or 71?
Oh so it is kim
my bad, looks the same with a brief glance, the aussie commentators should have probably given it away. 
The timer counts down instead of up in ozzie rules, just noticed, what a backwards society
Andy for random friendlies they just cut straight into the match, no pre match coverage
Dave – The lad is sound mate. Nearly 14 weeks old now though. Scary
He’ll be out getting pissed before long and phoning me to pick him up
What a weird sport, coulda sworn it was on 2 1/2 minutes before. How does it work
Wonder if aussie knows?
Thought so Dub
Toonsy
I assume he’ll be raised in the typical Geordie style so that’ll be in 8-9 years
Wow, why are they soo scrowny? Thought it was a contact sport
I hope the boiled ham for dinner doesn’t interfere with the match watching(online
), made sure I was eating pizza for the monaco game so I could eat whilst watching 
Andy twas @ 71
Toonsy they don’t take long growing up mate
Marvauew for amafilitano, one misspelt player for another
Test call from my new phone!
Who is Marveaux in for?
Dave
Don’t know if to agree or not
reet lets get it on
Howay the lads
coem on toonsy, keep up
TGS receiving you loud and clear
R.Taylor looks like a right mug
, destroyed that guy’s neck 
I think Raylor has left part of a coat hanger in the back of his shirt
man my signals shit
Andy mines perfect
Cheers Big Dave. Mobile site working fine.
They still got them monitors under their shirts I see. Bright enough start from the lads but a few tasty tackles going in.
Toonsy
I request a tongue sticking out smilie, or a middle-finger, either is good.
On my link they say Amilfitano was injured in the warm up
Tiote is a beast
.
Fecking commentators ,got to mention how lucky we will be to still have Tiote at start of the season
Kim
Tiote plays on thin ice with a fecking flamethrower
Andy
Demba is coming off I reckon. Sure I just seen him signal to the bench?
Vuckic man
What the fook was Vukic thinking of there ?
Vuckic
Vuckic
Man those Turkish fans are totally radged…
AHHHHHHH
Stupid lagging signal, making my eyes hurt 
close to the opener there.
Tiote just seems to get better and better..I swear Cabaye is teaching him to cross/pass long distance, and Benny is giving him footwork lessons
Great ball cheick
I think them Turkish fans have all had a crate of red bull each ,they are hypo.
Must have been raining, Simpson got up and I didn’t realise our strip had white stripes for a sec
Raylors set pieces really are overrated. He can shoot, but I don’t miss his corners or lofted free kicks..
I see we’re trying to do the same tactics from corners as well…they didn’t work last season, can’t we try summit else
Bastard ref we were about to score
. 
Newkie
I agree, the sooner HBA and cabaye are back the better, even tiote is better at crossing than raylor now.
I think Raylor delivers a great dead ball. He’s still a bit rusty at the moment.
Is anyone else getting a little nervous about the fact that Saylor still hasn’t had a run out yet ? The new season kicks off in 4 weeks…
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/great-white-fight-fishermen-fend-off-shark-125548899.html
Time for Cisse to come on, score a goal, show Ba how its done and then give the flu to all the fenebache players
Andy-To be fair, even Cabaye seemed ineffective last year. I’m not really sure what it is. Maybe it was getting used to the Barton/Carroll combo that made them both look better than they were…but I swear we scored about one corner goal and no goals from a lofted free kick at all last season? We still have lads like Colo, Staylor, Ba and Bambi so you’d have thought we could grab a few more..
Just whacked a fiver on us, let the floodgates open….
I reckon our first 11 would absolutely batter Fenerbache..
Newkie…oh no that’s us knackered…
MM @ 119 nah never worry lad have faith in the club to have the players we need
Saylor has a hammy niggle
Shola the makkem slayer would batter this back four …
Big D…I know mate, but in 4 weeks time he’l have Adebayor and the rest jumping aaal ower him. I’d be happier if his progress was a couple of weeks further forward.
I fear Willo starting along side Collo against Spuds
Spiderman on
MM thats one of the main things that pisses me off we have needed another good CB for a couple of windows but still haven’t got one
Obertan has been crap
Yeah, was a great ball by jonas if only obertan timed his run a bit better
NUFCGT yeah Obertan has been Obertan
Big D, i WATCHED THE YOUTUBE VID OF dOUGLAS EARLIER ON; AND i#M NOT SURE IF HE IS THE answer to be honest. Looks like a reet heed the ball…
I reckon young Sammy is going to be a real asset for the toon. The bloke has some real tricks in his locker.
fuk this commentator talks some shite, some people didn’t take to Colo because of his hair
WTF is he on about
FFS obertan
Man Obertan is pish…
Big D…who is this muppet commentator, any idea ?….
MM yeah mate I seen that before but I guess sometimes younguns do stupid things but apart from that case I haven’t heard owt else bad about him, but saying that I wish we had of tried for Samba last window
MM @ 138 some ex striker im waiting to hear his name he is a grade A tosser
Cool finish medhi
Nice goal that
Good lad Abeid
Good finish.
MM leeroy is the Muppets 1st name.
Get in son
The commentator isnt very professional “GO on shoot” he’s 30yrds out ya numpty
GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve got hope for Abeid now, reckon he should get more of a run-out next season.
Sammeobi just has to be above Obertan in the pecking order doesn’t he? And probably Vuckic too like
See, told you so didn’t I, great ball from young Sammy, remeniscences of Chris Waddle there the way he dropped his shoulder
Strolla
Santon
In the words of Pardew…
He absolutely rapes him…
Shoyt, the wrong Ameobi on the end of that one…
Santon
that was a cracker 
Sameobi is looking decent! As for Shola..
Got a gut feeling that we aren’t going to sign Debuchy. Second game in a row we’ve played Santon at right back, so maybe we’re pursuing a left back instead
Hopefully I’ll jinx it and Debuchy will sign tomorrow 
Final Score???
Cissé looks in great touch. More and more impressed with bigirimana the more i see him
Eliot’s kicks are even worse than Krul’s
I just pray we don’t have to rely on Strolla during the ACON
Mike Ashley deserves credit for not selling us even though he tried to and failed?
Sorry what? Bloody ESPN gobshites
Fuck sakes as well
bugger
Hope Krul never gets injured. Ever.
eliot man, what were you doing?
1 shot on target 1 goal
if harpers not no 2 next season, please let it be alnwick
Elliot
Harper better be on the bench this year
ST
Was thinking the same thing. Bit odd that he would play him at RB with Raylor there available to play there(his natural position).
Lost me 13quid that little fecker
Bloody last kick no less
, we only needed to keep the ball for 30 more seconds 
. Well one loss, one win and one draw, that nicely wraps up our German-Hungarian tour 
.
Newkie @ 159 yeah they did come off with a lot of shit that they knew fuk all about, as I said earlier I have never heard anyone dislike Colo because of his hair do
Shame we couldn’t hang on at the end. Obertan was woefull ,sorry but I don’t see any point in keeping him . So hoped he’d come good but it just ain’t happening . TBH since when as Fergie let a real gem go ?, no flies on him.
Could the commentator be Leroy Rosenior ?
Either way, they both blathered absolute gash the whole game…
What a poor goal to concede in the last minute….
The young lad Biriani looked absolutely immense for an 18 year old. What a signing, well done Pardew.
And Elliott can do one in all
Dave-Aye remember them saying that, christ know’s what they were on about. How it was bad for him when he joined us but now its a positive thing? Eh? Its just his bloody hair!
Elliot is brass as. Why didn’t we go in for Westwood like
MM
Leroy Rosenior thats him what a muking fuppet
KIM i said that from the day elliot signed,pardews only bad signing imo,hes crap
Aye Big D, that’s the lad, an absolute legend in his own lunch break.. set the world on fire at QPR from what I recall… Icedog will know though for sure, he goes back a lot further than thee and me
Vukic seems to be stagnating, he needs to find his true position, it sure aint up front along side the striker, the lad cannot finish…
I thought young Tavernier had a good game, he’ll be knocking on the first team door in a year or so… good prospect… That’s Cashley put his 10 mill for Debuchy back in his pocket..
MM theres only two people i dis-like on here,,,,,,,and your both of them
MM he might be too recent for Ice
As for Vuckic I said today and before when people say that he will step up for us that he’s not ready him like a few of our other younguns need a long loan to get proper footie, other wise they will just waste away, but sure we’ might need them
Only saw the first 30 minutes but that tavernier (or whatever he’s called) looks a very good player…might not need a centre back after all?
Seems I was right about elliott and wrong about sammy.
Vuckic needs serious loan time, we should never have called him back from Cardiff imo, unless both Cisse and Ba got crocked like
Witters-he’s tidy in defence, problem is his stature for me. If we had him and Colo we’d be very vulnerable to set pieces and the like.
B+B what did you get wrong about Sammy ?
Big Dave – Thought sammy wouldn’t make it. Too much of a light weight.
Icedog…..
…
Be warned. If Troy gets on here tonight, he’s hammered. He missed most of the second half because he was too busy raging at 9am vodka swilling doleys from Scotsy waiting on their Thursday “pay” who can’t get to the job centre because they’ve got an appointment with their probation officer.
MM only kidding mate
cannot same the same about some like 
B+B @ 189
As for Sammy its early yet I do think he has a lot of potential but makes lots of stupid mistakes at times but he’s still young so hopefully his footie brain will develop
MM have you been picking on young Ice again
DAVE is a good lad
where are jabba reps richie and batty the neet
Big Dave – Sammy certainly showed some promise tonight. He could do a job for us this season if he continues to play like that.
Reet. Lets see what’s left of Pirates of the Caribbean
Ice did Richie not tell you he got sacked they took Wolfie on instead said he promoted Jabba and the club more
DAVE you telling me richie cannot even hold a bum job down,can understand wolfie like,tend to nod off before you get to the end,dont know what he done with that 25mil
by the way just like to say well done to ed his treatment seems to have worked,good on yer son
Ice I haven’t been on there in yonks glad to here it though
Yeah you know what Richie is like holding down a job, but I think he realized that he was crossing the line of no return, as I told him he would loss what few friends he has
DAVE you did wise to tell richie,poor lad must be easy led,kna i dont go on eds but sometimes have a bit read just saw his write-up on the side of his site about his treatment.ive always said elliot was pardews only bad buy but that oberton is running him a close 2nd
plus he has vid highlights on the game
Ice yeah he is easy led the poor git, but atleast he has seen the error of his ways. yeah Elliot looks like a nervous wreck and Oba looks like Oba
Well did not get too see the game but reading both match reports and comments on here and i think things are looking positive this pre season compared too last pre season . Then again i am happy as hell , managed too get tickets for the Ado Den Haag game and the stadium is only 10 minutes doon the road from me house
trouble is i could not get tickets for the away end , so i will be sitting in amongst the Ado Den Haag fans with me Toon shirt on , i wont be alone though , me mate is wearing his as well . Every thing for the cause 
…well, just read through all that commentary and I’m afraid it was bent as fuck.
Wigan want 10mil for Moses
Brilliant.
Axel…can ya not get a refund on ya tickets?…..the away end is pay on the day
Sat 04.08.2012 ADO Den Haag (a) 5pm (local)
Den Haag are selling tickets now and replied to emails from Newcastle followers by saying that away section tickets will be available to buy at the stadium on match day from 11am at the main ticket office.
Prices are €12.50 on the Haaglandentribune (side) and €10 on the Aad Mansveldtribune (behind the goal). The Kyocera Stadium has a claimed capacity of 16,000.
Ice….mates are more important than a job spouting shite for 350k a year
Newks, I can think of at least ten com…I mean reasons why Moses shouldn’t go to Chelsea.
RICHIETOON i ordered the tickets on the internet and the tickets have already been paid for , the away end was not available on their website . Have talked to some Ado Den Haag fans and they say it could be that its not segregated being a frendily . If not , i will sneak into the stadium and then ask the police if they can relocate me into the away end , or get me heed kicked in , but like i say out for the cause . It does help that i live here for the last 21 years and speak fluent dutch , even though its with a geordie accent .
Axel, you don’t get trouble unless you look for it mate.
Nee wurries.
…follow ye nose.
…and that wasn’t a fucking euphemism, nor was I passing forward an anti-semitic remark from the devil (who I just happen to deliver The Observer’ to on a Sunday morning).
Which is bigger the fucking euphemism or the nose
…depends how it smells.
yeah right whatever, TOONSY! YE GOT TITANIC or sumik?
…hoy a viyder on man. 
..a think Axel’s trying it on with is like
Well the last time i smelled it , the fucking euphenmism was fine
all’s well that ends then
…I do like a fine euphemism, whilst I lounge about in my cloak of knowledge.
its there fault, I nicked the CD’s from they’re recording studio inside the batcave.
Sorry Axel, I’m in automatic now.
Feel free to chuck me a random phrase (I accept Hungarian).
is that the only thing you nicked from the cave rod
hahaha
…that’s for me to know, ind yee te feynd oot! 
…nah, good job, split evins – strites
Good to see Abeid get a goal and hopefully full of confidence for the next game. I think Vuckic and Gosling are in danger of being overtaken by Mehdi Abeid if they don’t pull their fingers out. I am interested to see what this Amalfitano is like aswell.
You want fight? I adjust my bra.
I fight you now!
