In memory of Bobby Robson

Today we are ditching the hi-viz in memory of Sir Bobby. Dress code will be England shirts or, if you prefer, Ipswich or PSV Eindhoven. After May's events, Liverpool fans may wish to wear Barcelona colours.

Please don't wear Newcastle replica shirts. Somebody might think we're trying to buy them.

A recreation of the scoring of the 1978 FA Cup winning goal will take place in the Osborne Room.

A living tableau dedicated "Losing", featuring men with 70s hair cuts and wearing Arsenal shirts, will be held tomorrow in the MacDonald Suite.

Penalties will be missed in Waddle Leys later. Watch out for Hnaef - for reasons known only to himself he plays football in hiking books. They can leave a nasty scar.

And a recreation of Sir Bobby's apparently highly emotional condition after the 78 Cup Final will probably take place outside the White Horse later tonight.

And Sir Bobby's still more use to Newcastle than Denis Wise ever was.
