Watch Eddie Howe meet Newcastle fan after 12 hour wait at Toon training ground – Video

Dedicated Toon fans braved the November cold for 12 long hours to catch a glimpse of Eddie Howe yesterday – and it was worth their wait in the end!

Our new boss took keen supporters by surprise as he arrived at the training ground before 7am, with those planning on heading to the training ground not expecting him to arrive so early – likely due to such an premature start would have been completely alien behaviour under Steve Bruce’s regime.

A determined bunch of fans stayed right until the bitter end to get a photo with Howe as the former Bournemouth manager didn’t leave our Benton base until after 7pm – a whole 12 hours after his arrival earlier that day!

They weren’t disappointed, although everyone’s hearts must have been in their mouths when the car chauffeuring Howe appeared to ignore them at first.

However, Howe must have spotted the supporters and ordered the driver to reverse, as fans finally got their chance to meet our new manager.

Watch the brilliant clip below, captured by Newcastle fan and YouTuber, Adam Pearson:
