Newcastle United’s Spanish contingent have shown how they are getting to grips with the Geordie lifestyle – by learning the lingo.
Inside the coaches’ communal office at the club’s training base in Benton, a piece of paper pinned to the wall details: ‘Geordie Words Translated.’
Among the words that feature include ‘aye’, 'gadgie’ and ‘hinny’ as Newcastle ensure nothing is lost in translation amid their push for promotion to the Premier League.
A photograph of Mikel Antia, the club’s Spanish first team coach, shows the must-have manual for anyone new to Newcastle in the background.
