A lot of Newcastle United fans have flocked to a post from Keith Downie that contains an update on the current situation at Newcastle’s training ground after a viral outbreak forced them to close the premises and postpone their game against Aston Villa.

Starting with an easy one, what number does Wilson wear for Newcastle?

However, Downie claims that the Toon have returned to the training ground in small groups and that those who tested positive have served their period of isolation.

Despite this, though, it is still unclear if Newcastle’s match with West Bromwich Albion will go ahead, with Downie claiming it is not known whether the Magpies have asked for the match to be postponed.

This has drawn the attention of these Toon fans who have had their say.

So, what did these Toon fans think of this update?

Do you think the game should go ahead?

Yes, if it is safe

Newcastle were forced to abandon the game against Villa over fears they could not prepare safely, and the Premier League agreed and postponed the game.

However, with the training ground now open and players back, there must be some hope that the match against the Baggies can take place.

This post continued to draw in Newcastle fans.

It will be interesting to see if it is safe enough for that game at St. James’ Park to take place, but this is a positive step forward, and hopefully, Newcastle can play West Brom on Saturday.
