Who needs talk of Weapons of Mass dustruction or illeagal reasons for going to war in order to kick Blair out of office? Not Newcastle United fans!
"The story that Tony Blair once claimed to have sat as a boy at the Gallowgate end of the Newcastle United ground in the 1950s watching Jackie Milburn play has been around for years. It is routinely retold as proof of the prime minister's untruthfulness, since there were no seats at the Gallowgate end until the 1990s and because Tyneside's legendary "Wor Jackie" hung up his boots in 1957, when the four-year-old future PM was living in Australia."
