The Bromley away contingent really did rise to the occasion. Like you said it’s brilliant to see old skl and new skl come together to get lost in football delirium. Every Newcastle fan I interacted with also played a part in making it such a special weekend.
We travelled up on Saturday morning to get more of a feel for the city and really ease into the weekend, and I'm so glad we did.
As you said Mach, every single person we interacted with was a class above. People pointing out pubs near the ground to try, directing us to the "away" end, wishing us luck before the match, and even if the pub afterwards all the Newcastle lads wanted to do was sit and chat about the match, and Bromley.
As for the match itself, it was "pinch me" levels. It was the small moments that got me -- seeing Michael Cheek jump for a header with Kieran Trippier. Just say that to yourself out loud! The goal, well, what can you say. Utter limbs up in the gods.
As the game ended, and we all carried on singing, a special shoutout to the numerous Newcastle fans down beneath me who turned to applaud us all as they headed home.
As a Newcastle fan watching the game in Belfast I thought Bromley gave a really good account of themselves and at half time there were a few sweating gifs in the chat! What a finish by Congreve by the way!! Hope your legs have recovered from the trek up to the 'away end'!
History made and memories etched, Bromley FC truly is the club that keeps on giving. Thanks Mash 👍🏼

Superb commentary once again.
