“Love you, who’s the other guy?”
“Welcome to the madhouse ! Enjoy the black and white ride”
“Welcome to Newcastle… wait until you feel the atmosphere”
“Drinking in the pre-match atmosphere just hope the football doesn’t disappoint tomorrow as everything else around it will be a 10 out of 10. A big welcome to Newcastle to Jamie”
“You’re going to love tomorrow. You have woken up a sleeping giant”
With tycoon Mike Ashley ousted from the ownership hotseat, many fans are salivating at the prospect of a change.
Reuben is being embraced by some fans just as he is embracing the club, city and wider culture at Newcastle.
