Harper Testimonial - Newcastle XI vs AC Milan Glorie

[B4E]

Joe Kinnear's interview was a laugh but apart from that you're just like any other club in terms of publicity really

[Heisen]

Thank f*** for that

Exactly, if anything people would laugh at people like nufc4life who have this unfounded woe-is-us chip on their shoulder.

[Nobbys Trumpet]

"NUFC4LIFE = Only when we're winning and "not a laughing stock".

So in reality if you think we are a laughing stock now the I think you need to rename yourself as NUFCfor25%ofLIFE

It has a nice ring to it that does.

Sorry if I've missed something but will it be televised in any way?

[Holystone...]

Is this sold out?

[PepperJack]

Taibi

Is this sold out?

No there are still tickets but last time I checked there wasn't that many left

[ddrive]

Taibi

Is this sold out?

No there are still tickets but last time I checked there wasn't that many left

Theres thousands left, level 7 isn't even open yet.

Ah right I didn't realise they were going to open level 7.

[MultipleJesuses]

If Shearer scores I might pass out

[TJR]

Theres thousands left, level 7 isn't even open yet.

Ah right I didn't realise they were going to open level 7.

They are waiting until most/all f the other sections are sold out and then they will open level 7. Most of the other sections are almost sold out so its looking likely level 7 will be opened.

If it doesn't sell out it'll be a disaster. At only £10 a ticket, all the money going to charity and the chance to see some legends play as well as paying respect to Steve Harper, I'll be very disappointed if our fans don't sell it out.

If you pass out Shearer might score.

I'd love it to sell out but theres still about 20,000 tickets left with less than a week to sell them all
