Blog on the Tyne at the Reading match
IT'S the second match of the season and as usual I'll be at St James's Park to bring you all the colour and drama from the game against Reading.
The Toon got off to a pretty good start last week with the 1-1 draw at the Hawthorns, and all eyes will be on the players to see if they can up that performance this time around.
Displays at home last season weren't good enough to keep us in the Premier League, with the only standout performance in 2009 coming against Middlesbrough.
It'll also be interesting to see how many fans do show up with the continuing uncertainty around Mike Ashley's ownership, the manager's position, and the fact the clash is on Sky.
However if you can't make it to the game, I hope you'll join me from 5pm on Saturday.
As well as all the action, there's also a chance to ask me questions about the ongoing situation at the club and have a bit of banter with other Toon supporters.
