Our Newcastle fans here in the Transfer Tavern are looking forward to their side getting back into action this weekend as they face Huddersfield in the Premier League.
The two sides, of course, came up from the Championship last year and so an early win for one over the other will really boost confidence for the rest of the campaign.
Huddersfield have had a good start to the year, too, with them beating Crystal Palace last time out and so Newcastle are going to have to really work hard to get a result in Yorkshire.
They seem in good spirits, though, despite their loss to Spurs on the opening weekend and that has been reflected by their annual open day which allowed fans to get close to the players whilst they trained.
Indeed, Dwight Gayle tweeted about a bit of the day and so here is the best of the reaction to that:
When your teams celebrating but the other teams scoring a sneaky goal hope everyone enjoyed the open day pic.twitter.com/bltsGqtIBK
