Ask not what your team can do for you…ask what you can do for your team | OneFootball

To paraphrase JFK (no, not that one), fellow Newcastle United fans; Ask not what your team can do for you…ask what you can do for your team.

Yes, tonight is Champions League under the lights at St James’ Park.

Our friends from Athletic Bilbao the visitors this time.

They are sure to bring plenty of passion into Level 7 of the Leazes end.

It is down to us as Newcastle United fans to do the same.

We ask of our players to not leave anything out there on the pitch AND we need to do the same on the terraces.

The atmosphere wasn’t bad in the last Champions League match but I don’t think against Benfica it reached anywhere near the heights of the Barcelona match (until NUFC went two down).

The Portuguese club brought a very decent following and they did everything to help their team, our Basque mates are sure to do the same.

As soon as the Wor Flags inspired build up starts just ahead of kick-off, we have to respond accordingly.

We all talked about one day getting Champions League nights back at St James’ Park during the dark dark days under Mike Ashley.

Like everything else in life, when an opportunity comes along of something you have been desperately hoping for, then fill your boots!

Bring the necessary energy to the terraces and help these Newcastle United players take us another huge step to Champions League glory.

Nine points from four games at the halfway stage of the Champions League Swiss League phase would be phenomenal.

Take nothing for granted and give it your all tonight.

If you demand that of others, Eddie Howe and his players, then you need to step up and deliver as well.
