Yeah I copied the font he was using and that's the only way I could find what font.... I have since emailed Mr Williams as a heads up hopefully i dont get copy right infringement for it haha!

Haha it should be ok as you emailed him ;) I thought I was going crazy when I read it first.

"My first proper match in charge and it is against Newcastle , My team , My first real love and I want them to lose - It's something that I don''t really think or say out loud very often"

"all day the boys have been giving me pelters singing "Fog on the tyne" but I looked at John Oster and said how many songs have you had in the charts son? and he said "He said none gaffer and asked how many songs shouldn't you have had in the charts"

"Glad to see the boys are in good spirits - Even at my expense"

"Mike Ashley came to the game and as much as many fans don't like him he is actually a decent bloke he came into the Managers office and wished me luck and said that He would be following my career to see how I get on"

"Game time and I was nervous , Excited , Scared - Almost like the first time you go with a lass"

"The line up included a few lads who started at Newcastle like Lewis Guy,Adam Bartlett,Carl Finnigan,Matty Pattison so I knew these boys would want to prove a point and that's exactly what I said to them before the game"

REPORT

View attachment 324682


Gateshead took a shock early lead through winger JJ O Donnell with a cute finish from a tight angle early in the game , Newcastle new boy Ferreyra levelled just before half time with a bullet header to make it all level.

3 minutes after the restart Gateshead and former Newcastle Striker - Lewis Guy then made the scoreline 2-1 with a nice 1-2 with Carl Finnigan.

Newcastle struggled to breakdown the Gateshead defence and found Adam Bartlett pulling off a string of saves but on the 80th minute Newcastle's superior fitness showed when midfielder Mehdi Abeid burst through and slotted past the helpless Gateshead keeper.

It went from bad to worse in which looked like a resolute display when almost straight from the kick off a sloppy pass from CB Jones gifted speedy winger Obertan a 1 on 1 and the winger rounded bartlett to seal the win in a performance where Gateshead gave everything and showed a real promise of how the season ahead will be.

"I am so proud to be part of this game it was really special for me and we gave a fantastic account of ourselves against basically the Newcastle starting 11 , We gave a premier league club a real run for their money which in a game that felt more like a cup game than a friendly , I learned a lot about my team and I think they learned a lot about themselves"


( I felt that this match deserved this much of a focus and I hope it was good read any feedback would be great)

FIRST STEPS TO RECOVERY

"
I think i had more phone calls between waking up this morning than I have when I made my England debut for good luck phone calls"

"The biggest surprise was Sir Alex , He phoned me saying you'll do alright kid , You will be just fine , Enjoy it and Remember how much you love football and that will get you through it"

REPORT

Gateshead International Stadium was Rocking, There was a buzz around the stadium in sheer excitement for Gazza's Debut as their Manager.

It took 20 minutes before Gateshead opened the scoring , When Carl Finnigan was brought down in the box and up stepped South African midfielder Matty Pattison to blast the ball down the middle to give Gateshead the lead.

The Fans then seen a sublime volley from Carl Finnigan hit the underside of the bar and go across the line to make it 2

The game was finally sealed on the 69 minute from a Pattison Corner saw Finnigan head home for 3 goals and 3 points on Gazza's Debut .

In the dressing room

"Boys I am so proud of you and how you played! It's early days but If we can beat that lot who are considered title challengers as comfortably as that ...It's only us that can stop us"




 

THE VALLEYS


"I have always liked Wales apart from when I Got sectioned the last time I was here"

"Gateshead on the road, Gateshead on the road" - It's not often its the manager starting the singing on the bus down

I started with the same 11 that crushed Torquay, They had deserved it.

"Wrexham will be tough as they are another expected challenger for promotion."

"It was a tough game , But we deserved at least the point as we worked hard and Probably had the best chances."

[video=youtube;Drt9fMyYYwg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Drt9fMyYYwg&feature=youtu.be[/video]

"It was a goal even I would be proud of , Right out the top drawer and got us a point when it looked like it was going to be none"

(don't know how to fix the resolution, That's not how the game looks when I play it, Again feedback would be great)

GM- "Hi Paul , So we spoke about the size of the wage budget and squad size , I feel that we are carrying a bit of dead wood and are eating big wages for the size of our club"

PG - "Sorry boss, I won't be the one to tell some of these guys , Who I have been working hard with that they won't have a job"

GM - "Paul this is something you need to do, This is part of management handing difficult situations , What did you expect it all to be rosey at this level?"

PG- " I am not the sharpest and I will admit that but no one speaks to me like that"
