stjames's park on girlfriends with the newcastle tops on. ark on saturday whether newcastle win or not, it means so much to us. to have been relegated and have some of the things that have happened to the football club over the years has not been nice but the one thing that has been nice but the one thing that has been constant is the fans and that will never ever change. they love their football club like no other so they will enjoy tonight and deserve a night like tonight and hopefully get the result and look forward to many more nights like this. meanwhile, manchester city are in germany as they face rb leipzig. last time the two teams faced each other, was in last years last 16 draw, where city thrashed the visitors 7—0. leipzig with marco rose, always the same manager doing really, really good things, and how attack the space and a lot of people in the middle. so, yeah, we try to go there because it's a huge step for us. if we are able to get a good result, we make a step forward to qualify for the next round. celtic manager brendan rodg
