The way Adingra and Minteh played yesterday we could have just played without this bit of the pitch

I worry for the number 10. His manager told him to drop deep and play in the hole

Oof. That's unfortunate. Doesn't look like a quick fix. Hope they can find an alternative venue for not just this game, but all their upcoming home games.
They might end up playing in the park, jumpers for goal posts. Marvelous.
Checked their schedule, they had three home games in the space of a week starting tomorrow. Probably a safe bet none of those will be happening?

I thought the Massive hole was called Hillsborough...?
The can always ground share at Selhurst again. That would be FUNNY.

They need to get the Wombles to donate some of the litter they collect as landfill

Chuck a few cones around the edge and just say don't play over there. Sure it will be fine
As opposed to our pitch which had a massive ****hole ON it, rather than in it. Fortunately, Anthony Taylor was there to tell the prick how to do his job.

Can they not play at Milton Keynes?
Big stadium, Newcastle would fill it easily making lots of money for the club.

Silly old bat
The BBC website simply says it’s standing water, and water damage, with no mention of a ‘hole’.

Does anyone remember the hole that appeared mid match at Withdean? Can’t remember which game it was? Stewards had to run on with buckets of sand to fill it.

Shame, it's really a lovely little stadium, just nice to see a new one being built in a residential area rather than an out of town industrial estate as seems to be the trend

Sure, it's a drop in the ocean for Newcastle, but a nice gesture nonetheless.
