Something PRETTY is coming this week from Riverlands Brewing Company
We're here to unite all the Newcastle United fans in the Chicagoland area. #NUFC #Chicago We came to be where many great ideas spawn from: the pub.
Three Newcastle fans met by chance at The Globe toward the end of the 2013/2014 season. After realizing there is no organization for Newcastle fans, the choice to unite all Newcastle fans was made. Today, our aim is to keep Newcastle fans in Chicagoland and all over a chance to discuss their love of the Club, memories of watching the Toon, or who should be the next one to get the sack. We are a su

🚨 LAST GAME OF THE SEASON 🚨
The Mags head to London this Sunday to take on Fulham, while Toon Army Chicago heads to Mrs Murphy’s for one final emotional rollercoaster before summer's silly season and the World Cup officially ruin our weekends.
🖤🤍 Doors open: 9AM
⚽ Kickoff: 10AM
📍 Mrs. Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro
As we wave goodbye to Trippier, send Big Dan Burn and the lads off to the World Cup, and emotionally prepare ourselves for 3 months of transfer rumours, “exclusive” ITK nonsense, new stadium debates, and finding out which city gets the honour of welcoming top sh***er Trippier next…
…we’re doing it the only way Chicago knows how:
🍺 Guinness flowing
🎟️ End-of-season raffle prizes
👕 Including a long sleeve NUFC shirt + Guinness goodies from Guinness and Toon Army Chicago
Will Spurs or West Ham survive the final day? Come find out with us.
Get down early, grab a pint, hug your fellow Geordies, and let’s send the season off properly before we all become part-time football finance experts until August.
HOWAY THE LADS

⚒️ Sunday morning Toon Army Chicago… it’s time to potentially be the hammer to the final nail in West Ham’s coffin. ⚰️
Can ex-NUFC striker Callum Wilson save his team, or will Bruno and the Mags send the cockneys home crying into their bubbles?
Join us in one of TWO locations as Eddie Howe's Mags push the Hammers one step closer to the Championship!
Chicago: Mrs. Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro
Suburbs: Riverlands Brewing Company in St. Charles.
⚫️⚪️ Expect goals, chaos, chants and questionable decisions before noon.
Come for the football.
Stay for the inevitable “Forever Blowing Bubbles” funeral service. 🫧⚰️

After destroying the Seagulls last week, Eddie Howe and Sandro Tonali have apparently decided the next logical step is to cut down the entire Forest.
Armed with axes, fueled by Malört, and operating with absolutely no regard for environmental regulations, the lads head into another massive Sunday morning clash as Newcastle take on Nottingham Forest.
Join Toon Army Chicago at Mrs. Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro
🕗 Sunday 10th May 8AM kickoff
🥃 Malört courage shots optional… but increasingly necessary
⚫⚪ Loud shirts, louder singing, and at least one person claiming Tonali is the best midfielder on earth before breakfast.
And yes… it’s Mother’s Day. So bring your mam, text your mam, or at the very least don’t make your mam explain why you were doing Malört shots at 8am watching Newcastle destroy a Forest.
Forest might survive the trees falling……but surviving the Toon after a few Malörts? Not likely.

🚨 This weekend the mighty Mags face Brighton Hove Albion, a club entirely powered by seagulls, stolen chips, and unjustified confidence.
Meanwhile, reports claim Eddie Howe is under pressure. Sources say the pressure is coming from 37 adopted Geordies in Chicago asking why we haven’t scored from a corner since 2004.
Join us at Mrs. Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro where the pints flow, the Malört burns, and every Newcastle fan becomes a tactical expert after two drinks.
Expect:
🍺 Wild optimism before kickoff
😡 Outrage by the 12th minute
🖤🤍 Blind faith by halftime
🥃 Malört-fueled delusion by full time
Come suffer beautifully with us.
Howay the Lads.
