Newcastle really is a very vibrant City. Occasionally you see the not so bright side of this. Last night as I went back to my hotel at 2am the scenes resembled one of those Police Camera Action programmes on ITV..car chases through the City and a variety of pissed up people in various states of undress. Coincidentally why is it that as I get older the ladies seem to wear less? Still, I wasn't complaining as the eighth taxi driver this week launched into permutations for Sunday afternoon's relegation battle.

Anyway refreshed after a sleep this morning dawned bright and I ventured out again. Onto the Tyne Bridge, which is spectacular in itself, I was able to see towering in the distance the two large stands at St James' Park. Being at the top of one of those must be an experience. Enormous structures they are. On the streets were still the detritus of last night's extravagances. I gather Newcastle is now a "go-to" destination of stag/hen parties the country over. Also though, emerging slightly sheepish onto the street, were people wearing the Newcastle United home Strip. For now laughing and joking, but who knows what will be the mood at 6pm tonight?

So a big day in Newcastle. Also a big day at the slightly wrong end of town at the Grosvenor where a high powered final 11 are in contention to lift the latest GUKPT Prize


There's EPT and GUKPT winner Andreas Hoivold, who binked for fun when it counted yesterday and has a hugely consistent record in these.

Fellow Scandie Henning Granstad. Look at his results. Top ten finishes in EPTs and WPTs amongst nearly 50 cashes in the last three years

Brit Steve Jelinek, EPT Grand Final Finalist, GUKPT Finalist.

Chip leader Tony Phillips, worse half of littlemissc. Aggressive, in a commanding position. Doesn't look like Neil Channing though. I have been racking my brains to think who he does remind me of. A cross between Tintin and Chris Evans perhaps.

There's "rivermanl", online prodigy Laurence Houghton, still in the hunt

From the old Guard Colchester's Dave Clark. Very different style to the kidz, but not one to give it away easily

Youngster Finn Stewart. Doesn't look old enough to shave. Which doesn't expalin his luxuriant beard though.

Adopted Scotsman Colin Wu

Local players Syed Zaffa Zaidi, and Peter Smithson

Luton semi-maniac Mo Muse. Fearsome when on his game.


A good line up I think.

Right I am off to plunder the bar menu, watch the Monaco Grand Prix and will be back with you at 2pm for the fun and games.

Geremi has so far not returned my call about going through my "Greatest Man City goals" DVD with him sometime

One time Ginger, clearly he looks nothing like Channing he is the UK's own Gobboboy.

Could be a high quality final with the 2 Scandies, Jelly and online MTT sicko rivermanl.

The wearer of this abomination claims this is a genuine MCC tie. It's not.
