Good luck with that one. They’ll probably put a message out 5 mins to kick off that it’s £37 to listen to the commentary.

Newcastle confirmed it via Steve Bruce last Saturday but we've said nothing other than Phil Bird mentioning it during the Oldham commentary and I mentioned it on here then.

On the Turf I believe.

What does it matter if its behind closes doors? Not like they need to release ticket details etc

Probably a run out for our new trialists and signings (and theirs) before we unveil on Thursday.

Nobody has said otherwise.The fact that it is being played behind closed doors doesnt stop fans from being interested in the game.

I'm sure there will be reports, teams, score update to keep those interested in a training session happy

I thought I had read that about this game a couple of weeks ago and there was a discussion about potentially having an opportunity to test their match day protocols without fans there so when we play Cadiz at the weekend they can test them with a crowd there too?

Don't know about that. I knew a while ago it was a possibility if we couldn't get another European team here but it was only confirmed during the Oldham game. Nothing said since until Steve Bruce mentioned it at the weekend.

Same thing I’d heard. Thought it was unusual to be playing a club from same division so close to the start of the season.

Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal are all playing each other pre-season.
Chelsea have already won at Emirates 2-1.

Quite a few doing it this year because of the restrictions of teams coming into the country. We had another game lined up against a Premier League team for the weekend in case we couldn't get another game.

Glad they're playing at the Turf. We need to get that back to being a fortress.

Practice on there until we're perfect.

If a game is being played behind closed doors then it doesn’t matter whether there are trialists. Bruce confirmed the game.

From a couple of pictures I’ve seen, Collins is playing as is Bardsley and Cork.

Presume it kicked off at 1pm.
