Premier League:
Brentford
(h)
The Magpies return to Premier League action today, looking to end a winless three game run in that
competition when the Bees arrive on Tyneside.
It's a 5.30pm kick-off, live on Sky Sports.
This will be Brentford's twelfth visit to St. James' Park and they are
winless in the previous 11. Newcastle have never failed to
score against them in a home game.
United
are now winless in four games in all competitions,
their worst sequence since November and December 2024.
Failure to beat Brentford would make that five games - the
longest barren run since February and March 2023.
Team: Anthony Gordon is the latest concern, coming off before half time at Manchester City in
midweek with a hamstring issue. Speaking to the media on
Friday, Eddie Howe seemed to rule him out of facing
Brentford.
Bruno Guimaraes
sounds more
likely to feature on Saturday than Lewis Miley but that's
not 100%.
Fabian Schar, Tino Livramento, Emil Krafth and Joelinton
remain unavailable.
Assuming he plays, Sven Botman
will make his 100th appearance in all competitions for Newcastle.
Coral rate this game as follows:

BFC:
Josh Dasilva, Antoni Milambo and Fabio Carvalho are out due
to injury.
Kevin Schade will be suspended following his red card
against Aston Villa. The midfielder netted the
opener in Brentford's 3-1 win over United last November.
Despite playing over half the game with 10 men, Brentford
won 1-0 at Villa Park - ending a run of successive losses.
Igor Thiago has scored 17 PL goals so far this season,
including a brace against United in the first meeting.
On the road this season, Keith Andrews has seen his side win
four games and lose the other eight.
Referee: Andy Madley - a quick return to Gallowgate for
the West Yorkshire whistler after he took charge of the 2-2
PL home draw with Chelsea in December 2025.

Aston Villa U21s 3 Newcastle U21s

Newcastle's managerless U21 side
recorded their first PL2 win of 2026 on Friday, teenager
Matheos Ferreira grabbing a hat-trick on an eventful night at Bodymoor
Heath,
The Magpies made the best possible start when
Ferreira opened the scoring on six minutes, before Korean Seung-Soo
Park doubled the lead three minutes later with his first
goal for the club.
Leading the line, 17 year-old
Ferreira then converted a 15th minute penalty
after Anthony Munda was fouled in the box by Owen Asemota.
Villa had won their last game at Bodymoor Heath 5-4 and got
on the scoresheet tonight when Cole Brannigan shot past
goalkeeper Aidan Harris four minutes before the interval.
The home side then reduced the deficit to one goal during the first
minute of added time when Brannigan turned provider to set
up Brad Burrowes.
Both sides resumed after the interval with no changes and
United made it 4-2 in the 53rd minute, when Kyle Fitzgerald
was illegally tackled by Omar Khedr and Ferreira converted
his second spot kick of the net to complete his hat-trick.
Back came Villa though and Alfie Lynskey scored with his
first touch after coming off the bench, meeeting Trai-Varn
Mulley's 58th minute centre and heading home.
Burrowes then hit the United crossbar as Villa pushed for an
equaliser but the hosts were reduced to ten men on 81
minutes when TJ Carroll was shown a straight red card.
There was to be no further scoring despite an additional 12
minutes as the green-clad Magpies recorded only their third
PL2 victory of the season.
Team: Harris, Watts, Charlton, Pivas (Moran 90+11), C.Thompson,
M.Miley, Fitzgerald (Palmer 76), Bailey, Ferreira (Finneran
90+1), Munda, Seung-Soo (Mills 76).

Ferreira is the first Newcastle player to register a

Tuesday sees the Magpies back on the road, heading to N17 for a
Premier League meeting with Thomas Frank's Cockerels.
This will be United's seventh visit to the Tottenham Hotspur
Stadium, with the previous six bringing three wins, two losses and a
draw. The Magpies have netted in all six.
The two sides have already met twice this season: the corresponding
PL game ending 2-2 and Newcastle running out 2-0 winners at SJP in
the Carabao Cup.
It's a 7.30pm kick-off, live on TNT Sports.

Ahead of our visit, Spurs lost 0-2 to Manchester United at Old Trafford on
Saturday, extending their winless run in the Premier League to seven games.

Lascelles
leaves

Tuesday brought confirmation that long-serving central
defender Jamaal Lascelles had left Newcastle, joining
Championship side Leicester City for the remainder of the season, at
which point he'll become a free agent.
The 32 year-old made the last of 253 appearances against Arsenal
in September, having moved to Tyneside from Nottingham Forest in August
2014 alongside Karl Darlow, the pair immediately returning to the City Ground
on loan.
Inheriting the number 6 shirt from Mike Williamson, Jamaal debuted
in the League Cup against Northampton Town in August 2015, before a harsh
introduction to the Premier League coming off the bench to partner Fabricio Coloccini and Chancel
Mbemba in a 1-6 loss at Manchester City,
The replacement of Steve McClaren by Rafa Benitez
failed to prevent relegation but was pivotal for Lascelles, who
became a regular starter and was made club captain.
One season in the second tier ended in spectacular style with Jamaal
holding the Championship trophy following a home win over Barnsley
and Brighton's draw at Villa.
Losing his place for the Premier League opener as Benitez partnered Ciaran
Clark with Florian
Lejeune, Paul Dummett almost immediately limped off
and Lascelles was back in.
Winning goals in successive games against Swansea City and
Stoke City were followed by news of a contract extension
and what became an effective pairing with Fabian Schar.
Retaining the captaincy after Benitez gave way to
Steve Bruce, Lascelles remained a regular until the
installation of Eddie Howe and later acquisitions of Dan Burn and Sven Botman
saw him slip down the pecking order.
An unused substitute at Wembley in the 2023 Carabao Cup Final,
Jamaal found his way back into the side again as Botman succumbed to
injury and Burn played at full back - starting all but one of
United's six Champions League ties and giving one of his standout
displays away to PSG.
Suffering a cruciate injury during a 4-3 home victory over West Ham
in March 2024, Lascelles was sidelined for over a year before
returning to action with a pair of substitute outings in the early
weeks of this season, by which time Malick Thiaw was through the
door.
His absence from the playing squad though didn't prevent Jamaal from
lifting the Carabao Cup with fellow captains Bruno Guimaraes and
Kieran Trippier last year - a fitting gesture to acknowledge his
long service to the cause.

ST holders have 24
hours to apply, 24 hours to determine success, 48 hours to

Success is based on the loyalty point total calculated from applications
received. Any applications from ST holders with less points are entered into a
ballot, which will have taken place before tickets go on sale.
The purchase window is divided into two sections determined by a loyalty
point division that alters for each game - those successful applicants above
that point division get a couple of hours head start.
Note that emails from NUFC confirming success may arrive after the purchase
window opens - if you think you qualify because of your points total, just log
on and complete your purchase regardless.
Tickets not bought by successful applicants within 48 hours are offered
to unsuccessful applicants with the next highest loyalty points total. NUFC contact them directly.

On This Day in History |
|
7th February |
|
Born Or Died:
1905 Oswald
Park
born, Darlington.
(1924-31)
Midfielder Ossie joined United in a £125 deal
from Darlington
Railway Athletic in November 1924, switching to a defensive role once
on the books at St. James' Park.
His first team debut came the following August in a season-opening 2-2
draw away to Bolton Wanderers, deputising for first-choice centre half
Charlie Spencer.
Making five appearances during the 1926/27 Championship winning season, Park
enjoyed his best run in the side in 1928 but then lost his place to new
acquisition, Jack Hill.
Playing for Welsh side Connah's Quay on loan,
Ossie's final outing in a black and white shirt came in October 1930 (in
place of Hill) and he became a
Northampton Town player at the end of that season.
Two spells at Hartlepools United then followed - separated by a move to
North Shields Athletic -
and by 1938, he was serving as
Consett player-manager.
Park's death was recorded during 1957, in North West Durham.

1943 Joe Butler born, Newcastle.
(1960-65)

Full
back who appeared for Newcastle City schoolboys and came through the juniors
to make his first team debut in a League Cup tie at Bournemouth in November
1963.
After a trio of league outings the following April, Joe lost his place in the
side to Frank Clark and joined Swindon Town in a £5,000 transfer in
September 1965.
Converted to a midfielder, Joe spent
over a decade at The County Ground - the
highlight of which was the 1969 League Cup Final win over Arsenal at
Wembley.
Awarded a testimonial match against Derby County, Joe signed for
Aldershot Town in 1976 and ended his playing career with non league outfit
Witney Town.
Remaining in the Wiltshire area, he drove a taxi in Swindon for many years.

1979
Death of Billy Foulkes, 52.
(1951-54)

1984 Chris Meredith born, Lytham.
(2001-04)
Former Academy midfielder who played at youth level for Blackburn Rovers
before joining the Magpies.
Failing to make the grade at SJP, Chris went on trial at Bristol City after
being spotted at the Premier League exit trials.
Since then he's dropped off our radar.
1992
Death of Cam Theaker, 79.
(1938-47)
1990 Alex Patterson born, Newcastle.
(2005-08)
Academy full back handed his reserve team debut in a 1-3 loss to Bolton Wanderers at Leyland in April 2007.
Making a trio of starts for the second string the following season, Alex was
released in 2008 and studied at Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, Florida,
USA, playing for their Tritons college side.
Returning to the UK in 2012, he worked for an e-commerce firm near Wigan before returning to Tyneside and joining a housing provider and then
the Ministry of Defence.

Although Newcastle twice scored from penalties, they remained unhappy that

Billy Wright had a fine game in the visiting defence a day after turning 35,
while Mickey Lill netted twice on the eve of his wedding day to put Wolves on

A cracking game saw Derby twice come from behind to tie the scores with only
seven minutes left, before Supermac headed home.
And even then, it took goal line clearances from United duo Glen Keeley and Alan
Kennedy to ensure victory.
"It could have been 10-9" said a relieved Gordon Lee afterwards, fresh
from winning the January Manager of the Month award.
PS: A group of Newcastle fans made their way to Derby for this game in error,
realising their mistake only when they reached the Baseball Ground and found the
Rams reserves taking on Coventry City.

both him and the player who made way for him, Alan Shearer.

Fortune(4,73)
25,817
A vital win at The Hawthorns for coaching duo Chris
Hughton and Colin Calderwood, who stepped up to take charge after manager Joe
Kinnear was hospitalised on the morning of the game.
Damien Duff, Peter Lovenkrands and Steven Taylor scored in the opening period as
United did the double over their relegation rivals.
However, there were still plenty of frayed nerves when Marc Antoine-Fortune made
it 2-3 with almost 20 minutes remaining but after some moments of blind panic,
United secured only their second away success of the season.
