Our rugby columnist Jeff Ball reveals what’s it like to be a fan of a side facing yet another crucial Aviva Premiership potentially relegation deciding weekend. Has your team been in the same situation or are you a Newcastle Falcons fan? Let us know your thoughts on Twitter @Ballintouch or in the comments below.
Misery, anguish, excitement, hope, quite simply. These are the main emotions I expect to feel this weekend in as yet undetermined quantities.
Those that follow my @Ballintouch Twitter (highly recommended if I do say so myself) will have probably realised I am a Newcastle Falcons fans.
