Phil W Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I can't wait for this and especially tomorrow here in Newcastle. This could be the same anywhere but if you're up here over the weekend talk to people about rugby league and spread the word. We're all ambassadors for the sport, yes some people might not have a clue. But rugby league takes over Newcastle tomorrow so let's spread the word and show our sport off. It's our chance to get more people aware and involved! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunbar Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I am more excited / nervous today than I have been for 5 years. For so many reasons I am desperate for an England win tomorrow. 4 1 "The history of the world is the history of the triumph of the heartless over the mindless." — Sir Humphrey Appleby.

Desert Skipper Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 While you’re up there, you could head out tonight and spread the word around town. I’d start with Saba’s Sardinian restaurant and bar down by the quay / Tyne bridge. Their Sardinian sausage pasta is a treat. 3 “There is perhaps no better a demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world.” Carl Sagan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Top stuff Phil. I can’t watch the game tomorrow but am recording it and watching as live in the evening - can’t wait. Anyone know how many tickets they’ve sold for tomorrow? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I can't wait. I posted this morning on one of the other World Cup threads that I felt like a kid on Christmas Eve and that is exactly how I've felt all day. It's a long time since I've been this excited about RL. The international game just adds a whole new dimension. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whippet13 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Been spreading the word in Jesmond, not an easy task as it's full of students with southern accents. Did however find a Turkish waiter working in an Italian restaurant who wished England good luck and asked for a positive review.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Russell Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 So true, I've not been this excited since the last world cup. And I know it'll prob end in heartache but you can't top this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjhrads93 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Not sure if this is the best place to post this, nonetheless, enjoy the World Cup everyone, 12 months ago it looked like it may not happen at all and instead we have a potentially brilliant tournament ahead of us in terms of quality, attendances and legacy. I think the whole thing will be belting and am looking forward to watching as many games as I can on tv in addition to the games I have tickets for. Feel like I’m forgetting something… oh yeah, come on England! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
