We were really well looked after.
And then, yeah, we met up, or all met up Tuesday afternoon for the game.
But it was tough.
It's difficult without Jeopardy.
Well, what happened was that normally I do all the core comms for Amazon with the brilliant John Champion, who's superb.
And we normally do the team together in camera, in vision.
I normally do maybe one hit at pitch side with the rest of the pundits.
Then I sort of head up maybe...
35, 40 minutes before kickoff just to try and get ready for the game.
But yesterday, with it being Newcastle, it got me doing a little bit more.
So we're actually on air at 6.30, so 90 minutes before kickoff.
To build up for that game.
It's already won.
But actually we went to the bar that's named after me, Shearer's Bar.
It was me, Sir Les Ferdinand and Gabby Logan.
Yeah.
I just didn't want to sound wanky and just say Shearer's Bar.
We did a nice interview in there and then myself and John Champion then interviewed the chief executive, David Hopkinson, who was brilliant in the hospitality area.
Then I went down pitch side and did sort of 15 or 20 minutes there with Wayne.
Les and Theo and Gabby obviously interviewing us.
