Update:
More Dan
Newcastle confirmed on Friday that Dan Burn
had triggered an extension to his existing contract that was due to expire
in June 2025.
The 32 year-old defender has made 113 appearances in all competitions since
arriving from Brighton & Hove Albion in January 2022.
U18s:
Teens toppled at
Toffees
Everton U18s 3 Newcastle U18s 2
3-2 victors at Liverpool in their last
league outing, Saturday saw Newcastle's U18s beaten by the odd goal in five at Everton's Finch
Farm training ground.
The Toffees built up a three goal lead: Justin Clarke's brace on six and
55th minutes, book-ending Braiden Graham's 32nd minute penalty conversion.
Newcastle were forced into a defensive reshuffle at 0-1, when ever-present
defender Craig Bloomer was unable to continue beyond the 18th minute of
play.
Top scorer Sean Neave pulled one back for United on 64 minutes with his
fourth league goal of the season, Joe Brayson narrowing the deficit further
on 90 minutes.
There was to be no added time leveller, although Everton added two more
yellow cards during the additional five minutes to end up with a final tally of
six cautions.
Team: Anderson, Johnson (Alabi 58), Craggs, Watts, Bloomer (Morgan
18), O'Donovan (Gilligan 79), M.Miley (Tika-Lemba 58), Wooster, Neave,
Ferreira, Brayson.
Sub n/u: Jones.
Booked: Alabi

On This Day in History |
21st October |
Born Or Died:
1959 Kevin Sheedy born, Builth Wells, Wales.
(1992-93)
Almost a forgotten man as far as his SJP career is
concerned, but compared to some of the misfits he
replaced (eg Terry Wilson) this free transfer was a
wise move by KK.
Having made his debut as a teenager for Hereford,
Sheedy joined Liverpool in 1978, but made only five
first team appearances in four years before moving
across Stanley Park to Everton (the Reds had earlier
tried to get him to join both Blackpool and Derby
rather than the Toffees).
A tribunal set the fee at £100K and Kevin went on to
win two Championships and a European Cup Winners Cup
medal, although injury saw him miss out on an FA Cup
Final success.
While a youngster at Edgar Street, Sheedy opted to
play internationally for the Republic of Ireland
rather than his native Wales.
That decision (based on the probability of appearing
in the finals of major tournaments) was vindicated
when Kevin made his full Eire debut in 1983 - and
went on to win 46 caps.
Included in a record of 46 caps and nine goals in a
decade of service were appearances at the 1988
European Championships and 1990 World Cup - the
latter seeing him score against England.
Four months short of ten years at Goodison came to an
end when Kevin Keegan came calling, with Sheedy
passing up the chance of a testimonial in order to
move to SJP.
Sheedy's debut came in a 1-1 home draw against
Barnsley in February 1992 and he played 13 times as
United successfully avoided relegation. His first
goal for the club came in a 1-1 at Grimsby Town.
Things were much improved in the following season,
with Sheedy scoring in away wins at Bristol Rovers,
Peterborough and Notts County as United rose to the
top of the table, en route to being crowned
champions.
His final game came in a 3-0 victory at Tranmere
Rovers in February 1993, after which new signing
Scott Sellars took over down the left.
Leaving Newcastle, a free transfer took Sheedy to
Blackpool before hanging up his boots at the end of
the 1993/94 season.
Subsequent coaching roles at Blackburn Rovers and
Tranmere Rovers were then followed by a stint at
Hartlepool United as number two to Mike Newell.
Returning to Everton as an Academy coach in 2006,
Kevin was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2012
but quickly returned to his post as Toffees U18 boss following treatment.
Following a spell coaching youngsters at Saudi
Arabian side Al-Shabiab, the Sheedy/Newell
managerial partnership was revived in 2020 at
League of Ireland Waterford United.
However, that proved to be short lived and they
lasted just nine games before departing.
2000 Jack Young born, Hexham.
(2017-22)
At Newcastle's Academy from the age of
seven, central midfielder Jack's first taste of U18
football came from the bench against Manchester City
in early 2017.
A regular starter over the following two seasons,
2018/19 saw Young's progress rewarded with an U23
debut in a Premier League Cup game versus Notts
County.
The following season then brought with a run of
starts for the second string after putting pen to
paper on a first professional deal.
That elongated campaign ended with a trio of unused
first team substitute selections for Jack and
October 2020 saw him agree a season-long loan with
League Two side Tranmere Rovers.
However, that was anything but successful and he
returned after just five appearances.
Making a senior team bow for Newcastle in a
pre-season game at Doncaster Rovers the following
July, Jack featured in the next three kickabouts but
returned to the U23s after a rumoured loan move
failed to materialise.
Loaned to Wycombe Wanderers in January
2022, Young converted that into a permanent three
year deal with the Chairboys. He was loaned out to Ayr United in August 2023,

A timely win halted United's seven game unbeaten
league run and gave them a first home derby success in
three attempts.
Two Sammy Weaver specials won it, with the Sunday
Sun's description of his later winner noting that;
"the tremendous shout which greeted the consummation
was eloquent tribute to the electrifying effect upon a
highly -strung crowd."

Davies(43,59)
50,550
What was to be United's final -ever home Fairs Cup tie saw Wyn Davies net
twice with headers and Bob Moncur hit the woodwork.
The Mighty Wyn also struck the crossbar and had a goal dubiously ruled out as he
went in search of his hat trick.
Various penalty appeals were also ignored by the German referee, including a
foul on Tommy Gibb that Magpies boss Joe Harvey called "the worst penalty
decision I have ever seen."

noteworthy stops.

1996 Newcastle gave a week's trial to Torquay United's
Rodney Jack, a 24 year-old striker who played
internationally for Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
The Magpies reportedly made an offer of up to £300K, but
work permit issues saw Jack ultimately opt to remain at
Plainmoor.

United's possession was not converted into clear cut
chances as the Toffees made us pay with a swift
counter-attack prompted by a cheeky back heel from old
boy Gazza.
Kevin Campbell converted, having already missed a
similar and far easier chance.

50,593
Sir Bobby Robson's ongoing paranoia over Gustavo Poyet
saw him resort to a central defensive trio, with Aaron
Hughes shackling the dangerous Uruguayan.
However, Poyet was in plenty of space when he headed home
a Darren Anderton cross at the Leazes End.
Before that, Anderton was initially credited with the
opener, although his aimless centre was going nowhere
until it struck Gary Speed and was deflected past Shay
Given.
The PL Dubious Goals Panel later agreed and credited Speed
with the own goal.

Robert(16), Shearer(51pen,56)
Clark(6), Saha(8)
16,506
The kick-off at Fulham's temporary Loftus Road home was delayed for over 30
minutes due to a bomb scare, caused by a suspiciously parked car in a nearby
street.
On the pitch, the main threat came in the shape of old boys
Magpies Lee Clark and Louis Saha, both soon on target.
With Craig Bellamy in the USA for surgery, Shola Ameobi partnered Alan
Shearer and that pair soon set up Laurent Robert to blast the ball past Edwin
Van der Sar.
Shearer levelled from spot after ex-Magpie Alain Goma
fouled Shola before our number nine grabbed an unlikely winner as United got
their second away win in four days.

2004 Craig
Bellamy issued an apology after TV cameras caught him badmouthing
manager Graeme Souness following his substitution at The Valley:
"My outburst wasn't really aimed at the manager on Sunday but more at the
situation.
"Call me old fashioned if you want,
but my view when a player is substituted is that he has been
ineffective, and I didn't feel I was ineffective against Charlton
Athletic.
"I know I will never get a better
club than Newcastle United. There is no other club I want to play
for and it would be a dream for me stay here for the rest of my
career.
"I haven't any problems with what
the manager is trying to do."

Just as a poor first UEFA Cup group tie seemed set for a stalemate, substitute Shola Ameobi won a late penalty to give
us three precious points in Athens.
Minutes earlier Shola had tumbled in the box in fairly unconvincing
fashion and his spot kick pleas were rightly waved away.
However, the Italian referee gave the decision second time round and
Alan Shearer bagged a 21st European goal for the club.

Following the award of £2m to Kevin Keegan by a Premier League
Tribunal, the former United boss won another financial battle, with
confirmation that legal costs (plus interest) must also be met
by NUFC.
No amount was given, but if the two parties were
unable to agree, the tribunal had the power to impose a figure. Some
media sources claimed that the figure could even be as high as
£1.5m.
This judgment included the following:
"The Club should pay Mr Keegan’s costs on an indemnity basis given the
manner in which it conducted this litigation: its defence on the
primary liability issue was, in our view, wholly without merit and
it chose to make entirely unfounded allegations against Mr Keegan."
2010 Press reports confirmed that Magpies striker Andy Carroll's
Range Rover had been torched as it stood outside Kevin Nolan's
Darras Hall home the previous night.
Living with team mate Nolan as part of his bail conditions for
an ongoing court case for assault, Carroll had recently bought the
car after signing a new contract.
The police appealed for information about the fire and some
graffiti that was written on the adjacent garage door.

Only an unlucky late own goal denied United the
win, despite playing with ten men for 65 minutes after Cheick Tiote
saw red for a studs-up challenge.
A resolute display spearheaded by Fabricio Coloccini looked to have
been enough, but he'd been forced off through injury by the time a
hopeful free kick hit Demba Ba's chin and left Tim Krul helpless.

2019 A 2-0 win in the U23 derby didn't convey the ease with which

second goal after the break.

Eagles side who had shut them out in all three league and cup
meetings the previous season.
Making his first start for five months, Jacob Murphy was
instrumental in the victory, scoring then providing assists for
Anthony Gordon and Callum Wilson.
