Primrose Nation

Are Newcastle United going to provide Barnum and Bailey style entertainment this coming season? Several indicators would appear to point to this. No manager yet and precious little news: the fog on the Tyne is a full blown pea souper at the moment. Opposing fans will be hoping that Fabricio Coloccini stays, but amid the uncertainty, the club have come up with a great way of keeping us all entertained by unveiling their new primrose away kit [1]. I can’t really describe it any better than Ben on the superb blog Black & White and Read All Over [2].
