Transcript

00:00Newcastle United Japan, I've been supporting Newcastle since 2012, so yeah, and I started

00:07to organize some Newcastle United related events in Tokyo since 2014, so I've been doing

00:14this for about 10 years actually, so yeah.

00:18And then finally we have Newcastle United here, that's fantastic news.

00:21I've been to Newcastle for three times, so it's not a first time for me, but yeah, having

00:26Newcastle United in Japan, in Tokyo actually, that's a special occasion.

00:32Last time Newcastle visited Japan was 1996, so I was two years old, and I didn't know

00:38nothing about football.

00:39I'm so glad to sing the tune being here.

00:43Fans from all four corners of the world, what do you think of that?

00:46I think it's great that people from all over the world support Newcastle.

00:50To be encouraged, and they're really enthusiastic, they know all the songs and they've got some

00:55brilliant banners for the aware.

00:57Would you come back here after Newcastle were indeed on tour here again?

01:01Yeah, definitely.

01:02Yeah, we'd consider it, yeah.

01:03The supporters, yeah, that is the best thing in the world.

01:06Yeah, I really love the team, and also Newcastle is my life.

01:13Yeah.

01:14Why is it your life?

01:15Why did you choose to support Newcastle all the way out here in Japan?

01:18It's like about 10 years ago, I watched a game against Hull, Hull City.

01:24The game was so crazy, and Alan Pardew has a headbutt.

01:30Yes?

01:31Yeah, that is a game I watched first, and that time I already fell in love with this team.

01:39Alan is still alive.

01:40He was my hero.

01:41That's why I love Newcastle United.

01:43In 2020, I've been there, but unfortunately the game was cancelled, so tonight it will

01:52be my first Newcastle United game, so I'm so excited.

01:55One of my dreams came true.
