Supports: Newcastle (also have a soft spot for Huddersfield and Rennes-family reasons)
Likes: spending time with my kids, away games with pals, helping people
Dislikes: People who act like arseholes, especially those in the name of NUFC, Sland fans who hate us more than love their own club, ISIS ****s, Putin and others who show a complete lack of humanity towards others.

Age: 28
Occupation: Student (Language & Linguistics); chef
Where from: Durham. Currently at Lancaster Uni but moving to Newcastle soon
Supports: Newcastle United
Likes: Football, whiskey, poker, reading, language & linguistics, Theatre Royal & Live Theatre, binging TV, PC gaming, cooking, RX8s
Dislikes: Religious extremism; weakminded, radical idiots who internally justify their reasons for killing people

Best football moment so far: Bringing in Rafa because it shows a massive shake-up, despite happening fairly late. On the pitch, it was Tiote's pearler against Arsenal. I had never gone more mental than I did then.

Favourite player(s) - past: Pavel Srníček. I was in net for the school team and always loved Pav; Alan Shearer too. I guess Ben Arfa counts as a past player and he was definitely a favourite.

Favourite player(s) - present: Tim Krul and Mitro. I think Mitro can be a dominating player, so I hope he sorts out his issues. I like Townsend as well but there's a lot of uncertainty surrounding our players, so it's hard to get attached.
