Keegan's impact on the club as a player and manager by those who witnessed his impact first hand

The legacy of Keegan in the city and the region. His ambition and enthusiasm turbo charging Newcastle as a place and the people within it

A popular man across football who united people and is loved by fans of every club he graced

Adam is joined by Jon and Mark to discuss the latest speculation linking Bruno with a move to Arsenal.

The lads debate Bruno's importance to NUFC's project, whether the club can afford to keep him - or afford to sell him - and what losing their captain would mean on the pitch? Can Newcastle replace a player of his quality, or is Bruno too important to let go?

Luke Edwards kindly joins Si and Ordy from TF this week to get into what has happened so far this summer and whether it is time to panic or not and to answer some of the big questions hanging around the club so far this summer:

Panic or Patience? Is the summer going to plan and/or should we be worried or not?

What is the club aiming for next season, what is expected of the manager and does it align with expectations of the club as a whole?

And what of the ownership - PIF and Hopkinson continue to talk of big ambitions but the lack of progress on infrastructure and what we are seeing suggest its all talk.

A big thank you to Luke for talking to us fresh off the back of him publicly calling out a certain Spanish transfer news journalist...

Another week of transfer woes so we took the opportunity to revisit the frustrating lack of progress on the stadium situation. Si was again joined by Michael Martin and Stephen Hodgson who is True Faith's resident Chartered Building and Project Manager to get into it.

We had a similar podcast with Stephen and Mick in June 2024 and we caught up to ask:

What is taking so long and what if anything has changed in the last 2 years?

Why is this so difficult and what are the limiting factors preventing real life progress?

And

How and when will the decision actually be made to take this forward - what are PIF actually waiting for and why does it look like they are looking for external funding?

A great, if somewhat frustrating, discussion about a situation that is dragging on so long that its adding to the worries about the long term project at NUFC.

Great input again from Stephen and Mick to remind us its not that simple but we'd be lying to say this podcast doesn't end up raising more questions!
