Just want to let you lot know that if you’re watching this clip on the fast YouTube channel the full episode is now available to watch exclusively on Spotify and it’s free come on uh so uh crack three bones on me back it sounds worse than it is to be fair though so
You’ve got like your spine and then you’ve got these bones that come off called uh Traverse process bones I hope I’ve got that right by them and I’ve just cracked straight through three of them so it’s like it’s something that like I go up for those sort of headers
All the time and fall but it’s just one of those things like I just fell did what did you did you fall like did you land on the floor or did you land on your legs or what yeah and I clip the back of Jo lint and that Cent’s over and
Then I think I’ve like tried to put me hands out hits and just when I’ve hit the bottom it’s just did you know straight away you like uh I thought wow that’s painful like cuz i’ like I feel like i’ got quite a high pain threshold
Like I’ll not go off for nothing cuz I want to play but I look and I was as I went on I kept getting a shooting pain and then I remember the gaffa looked over and he was like are you all right and I was like as if to say like I want
To come off and he was like oh he’s all right and I was like no I’m not I don’t even know to do 20 minutes yeah so uh yeah like we managed to sort of get the half time um but I was in agony at half time like real Agony and and obviously
The manager knows he knows your character he knows what kind of a guy you are so if you say man I’m struggling here then he knows you’ve done something and then you’re fearing fearing the worst yeah yeah I think like it takes a
Lot for me to go off so like when I came off I was hoping that it was just sort of bruising um and then I had a scan the next morning and then went into the dock and he was like I’ll just tell you straight like it’s you broke reborn so
It be wow 6 weeks like Max 10 so to be fair when you um CU I think we had this planned a few weeks ago didn’t we and when um said oh Dan’s out to reschedule he’s broke three bones in his back and we were like yeah that’s a fair that’s a
Fair excuse no I said that’s selfish as heck like we had a proper podcast to be fair you text you went mate listen I’m a bit sore at the minute I can’t even sit still like it was ridiculous is that what it’s like when you get home you
Can’t move can’t drive nothing like that and it was like hard I’ve got obviously two young kids and stuff as well so they’re like running round us and I want to try and help out but I’m just sort of sat there just watching them but yeah like driving was Agony even just like
Sat down I was in pain so the most comfortable I was in was walking about but there’s only so much of that you can do and you started back doing a bit of training now bit running started back running H did a bit of ball work today
And it feels good so a few weeks hopefully um right we’re going to crack on with the rest of the podcast in a second I definitely want to talk about this Champions League the whole Newcastle story first of all Tom we’ve got a few thank yous to say haven’t we
Yeah just big thanks to Ben Cleary and the team at Full Circle Brewery my old Ben so um they’ve kindly let us use the brewery to shoot the podcast today kindly supplied us with a few bevies as well so massive shout out we’ll put a a
Link to their website down below but the the beers are Bel in then would you would you agree I would agree man they’re fantastic obviously Dan is not cuz he’s a professional U but we are up in Jordy land uh it’s very cold they’ve had a bit of snow but it’s lovely um
Anyway let’s talk about um I want to talk about this the the Champions League Journey that you’ve been on so far um in particular that PSG game m surely actually you tell me in your own words is this the biggest game in your career
So far yeah I think so I think like the a Milan game first just to play in a stadium like the sanso and like the Champions League music comes on and stuff it was what’s that like is that is it but happened really quick so I went
Out there and I thought like i’ be stood there for just listening to it and as we were coming out it was on and then it was over so quickly you know what I mean yeah um but yeah just to play in that game and like get a result there I know
We didn’t play as well as we would like of but get a result I thought like that’s like nothing can top that that’s like the Pinnacle and then then the PSG game even the buildup to it cuz I had like um the lights above the ground and
Like everyone was talking about it so the atmosphere was uh electric and yeah great night it goal as well yeah which I don’t get a lot so it’s one of like I talk all the time that I don’t score enough headers like I don’t know what it
Is it must be a timing thing but but me size I should get a lot more you I mean like if you hang a ball in the Box I’d like to think you win most of them I think I win most of them but I think I’m
Not used to clearing it a it must be a timing thing but I’m I am getting better I feel like the more we do it in training I’m like starting to get in the areas that that I want to score in but um yeah when that ball came in it was
Just sort of like me eyes lit up I was like yeah it was hung up there and yeah um I need we need to talk about the goal cuz we saw you celebrate and is it a goal isn’t it a goal do you feel like you were robbed out of the celebration
That you really wanted to do properly like as soon as I as soon as I knew it was over the line cuz I like see down a room I didn’t get there and then I turned away to run um but like offside flag went up straight away I was like
You’re kidding me but jump in the crowd no like and I would have been top off a lot I would have been around the pitch so yeah it did kill us a bit but I think even just sort of the the buildup to anticipation like the longer it went on
Like I was like oh it’s could be a goal yeah yeah and then uh yeah like I was to be honest I was too tired at that stage of the game to do a full lap see just buzz yeah the thing is they were checking the V were checking first I
Think did the ball go out secondly was it offside thirdly was it a foul and then eventually and then even then cuz I’m buzzing for Donna rum right I’m thinking what to say yeah honestly I’m thinking that’s world class what a save that is but then eventually they give
The goal and all you can do really is just stick your arms out and Buzz can’t you no like it’s like nice you could like feel the Roar of the crowd and then all the lads sort of jumping on you was that a different atmosphere that night because I was watching from home
Watching on the Telly and I’m thinking I need to go to a Champions League game we SP about on the podcast didn’t we said like you you watch it and everyone knows how like special St James is but nights like that CU you always hear about like special night at anfield but obviously
It’s been so many years at at St James’s but that must have been electrifying yeah it was ridiculous I mean the atmosphere is amazing at James’s Park anyway to play on that and there’s been like the odd games where you’re like wow that was unbelievable but yeah I think
That that PSG game was sort of different level it was crazy I think I spoke about before when I was a kid I had a season ticket so I went to the last time that they were in the Champions leag when we played Juventus and fire and Dynamo Kev
And that’s what like made me like love Newcastle and love playing football so like walking up the hill you could see like the whole stadium was lit up and you could hear the crowd so to know that I’ve been on the other end of that and there’s probably kids doing that and
Like loved football from that moment like it’s just sort like special that’s lovely man and what um to obviously playing against PSG talk to me about playing against the likes of mbappe like is it before the game are you are you half nervous or are you just like no
He’s just he’s another footballer he’s a striker he’s just a bit quicker than most but that’s about it yeah I think like as I’ve getting older I get like less nervous for games like big games that you can feel it obviously I would play like The League Cup Final that was
A huge game for for the club so you do get nervous for those sort of games but I feel like I always because I always treat myself as the underdog whoever I’m playing like it’s just all like where it’s like everyone’s expecting him to rinse us anyway so like it’s just in me
Head that I want to prove is that honestly how you will so say no matter who you’re playing against you will think in that player’s head he thinks he’s better than me he can beat me so that’s where you kind of go now going to
Back myself I think like if you look on paper I might just tell myself this this might not be true but I’m saying on paper the majority of the Wingers that I come up with I would say you would say yeah he’d probably get the better of me
So I’ll probably use that as like bit of a chip on me shoulder and a bit of motivation just to like prove to myself that yeah like I can like handle the best if you know what I mean it was hard with them belly because remember we were
Doing work on him during the week um and you were seeing him he was like coming in on his left foot like all left footed and then like the next one he was like all right footed I was like what foot is he and everyone like don’t know right
Fantastic what fo is he I don’t know if anyone knows like just he just both droing a lot so um but no I really enjoyed it like I think it’s like you want to you play football to play against the best players and PSG AC Milan and Dortmund like you couldn’t ask
For a better what I want to know that this draw so like say the the teams that you just mentioned there obviously Newcastle buzz and they’ve finished in a great position last season they’re into the Champions League now and then when it’s draw day are you all sitting there
Like how do you all find out are you all sitting there watching and then you go so they put something on at the club so they had they’ve got like a big indoor tent and then they had loads of stuff on for the kids they had like a restaurant
Came in and put food on and then they all watched it so it was good like it was really good so um that you could bring your families along and then they had the draw on and the draw takes forever like as you know so I wasn’t
Really paying attention and then like I saw like think I can’t remember where the first one was but come to it and like just everyone was buzzing like I think when you haven’t played in the Champions League for that long and you don’t know if you’re ever going to get
That opportunity again like I think to you want to play the best teams you don’t care you don’t care I don’t care like like the thought going to play like at PSG or going to play at AC Milan or Dortmund like it’s why you want to play football thanks everybody for watching

We all know the refs robbed Newcastle to save their golden boy mbappe π
what a guy, absolutely warrior
I was a Darlington ball boy back in the day he used to chat to me every game and knock the ball about with me, now heβs scoring against psg crazy.
I reckon mings should be next
Great Feyenoord pronunciation
Well done you won 1 out of 6 games – wow amazing
Specs Gonzales brought me here
Great servant for the toon, I wish him well in retirement next season. HWTL
Heeees frrrrommmmm BBBBBBLLLLLYYYYYYTTTTTHHHHHH
Gives nothing but 100% always brilliant bloke
Broke his back and played on 15 minutes
Absolutely love Dan heβs a local hero. I will never forget that PSG game as long as I live. I was on holiday in America and watched the game with friends at a bar in New York. Greatest day of my life
And he pops up with a goal today against his former club (Fulham) in a 3-0 win!
I saw Dan Burn at the self checkouts of Tesco buying milk and hot cross buns
calm down …..its only m'bappe….the rest are dogshit players that will be hyped up and sold to mid table prem clubs…i watched Messi's entire tenure there…trust me
forster could have been there if he took up the offer off newcastle
The greatest thing to come out of Blyth. After myself, of course.
My DB33 πβ€π beloved to me
As an NUFC fan I'm biased but I have to say how lovely a bloke Dan Burn seems in the interviews I've seen. Based on his height I thought he might be a bit of a shithouse when he first signed but he's a real gentle giant. This weekend when he scored, his first instinct was to help Bernd Leno up out the net which may have been a small gesture but it says a lot about the guy.
