Following the reality check at Elland Road, Newcastle bounced straight back with a hard fought 2-1 victory over Hull City at St. James' Park! Against all odds, Helen and Cup Final Kid Dave managed to snag tickets for the match and report back straight from the stands on Joe Willock and Lewis Hall's early blitz.

Beyond the three points, the conversation turns serious as Dave and Helen tackle the darker side of online fandom, unpacking fanbase hypocrisy and defending players' families from unnecessary social media abuse.

In this episode:

Newcastle 2-1 Hull City Debrief: Helen gives her live matchday view after securing last-minute tickets! We break down the explosive opening seven minutes, surviving Hull's second half fightback, and how Matthias Jaissle adjusted his setup.

The Online Fanbase Hypocrisy: We take aim at the reactionary knee jerk meltdowns on Geordie Twitter/X. Why do some supporters flip from backing the lads to tearing them down after a single loss?

Fan Philosophy: Dave lays down the law on what our only job actually is as supporters wether we're walking through the turnstiles at St. James' Park or supporting from elsewhere

Standing Up for the WAGs: Helen calls out the unfair, misogynistic abuse directed toward players' partners online. Why targeting players' families crosses every line.

Fan question debate: Was Howe's Exit Necessary? We take a step back to address a listener question. Was Eddie Howe’s departure the right step for Newcastle's long term evolution, or are we missing our steady Eddie?
