After the thrills
of cup ties played and the anticipation of those to come, Saturday
saw reality intrude yet again for Eddie Howe's side - losing their
third consecutive Premier League home game for the first time in
five years.
Everton have gained a reputation as away day specialists this season
and headed to Tyneside unbeaten in five games on the road. However
Newcastle only have themselves to blame for failing to take at least
a point from this game.
A significant part of the Toffees' armoury is their ability at
corners and they soon demonstrated that: James Garner's 19th minute
flag kick headed in by Jarrad Branthwaite.
The hosts struggled to find space or create any scoring chances
until a fine pass from Sandro Tonali found Jacob Ramsey on the edge
of the Everton box and his powerful effort took a deflection as it
flew past Jordan Pickford.
Within two minutes though, a gift of a goal allowed the visitors to
regain the lead. Nick Pope blocked a Dwight McNeil shot but allowed
the ball to squirm away from him horribly and made a present of it
for Beto to finish.
An unchanged line-up emerged for the second half, only for
goalscorer Ramsey to be hastily replaced by Joe Willock before play
began after vomiting on the pitch.
The ineffective Anthony Elanga and Nick Woltemade both lasted just
over 10 minutes before making way for Jacob Murphy and Harvey Barnes
- the latter replacing Gordon down the left after the Everton old
boy had shifted out there from centre forward to replace Joelinton
at 0-1.
Murphy took up his customary right wing role before going to right
back slot in place of Trippier, popping up with a
second United equaliser to seemingly end an afternoon of frustration
when they struggled to unlock the Everton defence and were
vulnerable to counter attacks.
Within seconds of Murphy's shot deflecting in though, yet more
over-elaboration from Gordon deep in his own half allowed the
Toffees to race forward and the ball end up once again in the home
net, after substitute Thierno Barry bundled Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's
cross over the line.
The Magpies almost salvaged a point from a game they were never in control of when Sandro Tonali's
blockbuster volley was
touched on to his crossbar by Pickford in added time - inches away
from being a rival to Alan Shearer's late leveller against the
Toffees in December 2002.
That's one league win in seven now for Newcastle, ahead of the
midweek visit of Manchester United, who are now a staggering 15
points ahead of the Magpies.
The Red Devils in contrast have won six of their last seven league
games and are unbeaten in the PL since losing at Villa Park four
days before Christmas.

A proportion of home fans
shamed themselves by booing, flouncing out after the final Everton
goal and giving Pope and Gordon stick for their mistakes.
Embarrassing.
Referee: Stuart
Attwell - game number three this season for the Warwickshire
whistler, following on from the 1-3 loss at Brentford and 2-1 home
victory over Burnley.
VAR: Nick Hopton
Eddie Howe said:
"Certainly in relation
to the Premier League, our form for a while has not been strong
enough. It’s not been good enough. We know that. We take
responsibility for that.
"It’s been really frustrating for us and that is the perils of
Europe, I’m afraid, where we’ve tried to be laser-focused on every
game and give attention to every game with the same importance.
"But
with the deluge of games, your focus can be swayed. Our Premier
League return in recent weeks has been nowhere near the level it has
been historically. Our home form has been so reliable for us but
it’s tailed off.
"We’ve
got to try and grab that back as quickly as possible. We love
playing here. We want this to be our place where we pick up the most
points, where the players feel free to play and through our own
performances, that hasn’t been the case.
"I
don’t see the players not trying, I see sometimes maybe the other
way, where players are over-trying.
"I
felt attacking-wise, we could still do loads better today. But we
had enough ball around their box. We had enough crossing
opportunities. half-chances, Sandro’s hit his volley at the end.
"It
could have been a very different result again. But we’re just making
too many individual errors. It’s costing us goals at the other end.
We can’t do that at this level.
"If
you put a list of our goals, watched a lot of our goals we’re
conceding, in the Premier League especially, and put them together,
it’s not good showing for us. So we need to focus on that.”
On his in-game formation
changes:
"The set-up was done with reason, and with the limited time we had
to prepare, we had good logic. We didn't like and we changed it."
On Jacob Ramsey:
"It looked like an
illness. At first, I was aware it was at half-time. He felt he could
continue, but it was obvious at the start of that half that he
couldn't.”
Stats:
Sandro Tonali completed a century of appearances for
Newcastle in all competitions.
Jacob Murphy struck his 22nd Premier League goal for the
club, taking him level with Laurent Robert.
Jacob Ramsey doubled his PL goal tally for United, having
netted in the victory at Spurs earlier in the month.

Trailing to Henry Johnson's 19th minute own goal, the young Magpies
drew level ten minutes into the second period when home goalkeeper
Harry Holt was also credited with an own goal.
Kacey Wooster shot the visitors ahead on 64 minutes before Rovers
levelled through Archie McCoy's penalty conversion ten minutes
later, after Ezra Tika-Lemba was adjudged to have impeded Tyler
Mansbridge in the United area.
McCoy then turned provider in the second minute of time added on,
Valentin Joseph firing past goalkeeper Roman Dowell to claim all
three points for Blackburn.

Wednesday sees
Michael Carrick bring his Red Devils to Gallowgate for an 8.15pm
kick-off, live on TNT Sports.
The Magpies will be aiming for their fourth successive home league
win over Manchester United, something that they haven't achieved
since 1931.
Less positively, they will hope to avoid a fourth successive home
league defeat - something they haven't endured since the 2018/19
campaign, when they kicked off with five SJP reverses in a row under
Rafa Benitez.
Since the last meeting of the two sides - a 1-0 home win at Old
Trafford on Boxing Day - Manchester United have played 11
games in all competitions. Newcastle have played 18.

doubtful.
Since he took caretaker charge in mid-January, Michael Carrick's
side have won six PL games and drawn the other.
A 1-0 home win over Newcastle on Boxing Day began Manchester
United's current 11 game unbeaten PL run.
Bryan Mbeumo has scored in his most recent two PL appearances
against Newcastle, when a Brentford player.

loss.

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 This Day in History |

2nd March |

Born Or Died:
1897 John Henry Hill born, Hetton-Le-Hole. (1928-31)
Centre half who had begun his career with Durham City before
moving on to play for Plymouth Argyle and Burnley.
Jack was a current England international when Newcastle paid £8,100 to bring
him from Turf Moor early in the 1928/29 season.
He added four more caps to his tally while at Newcastle but his time at SJP
ended abruptly after a dispute with the club's Directors.
Transferred to Bradford City in the summer of 1931, he was soon on the move
again to Hull City - later serving as manager and scout.
His final involvement with football came on the commercial side with
Scarborough after which he retired, moving to the Clydeside town of
Helensburgh. He died in 1972.
1901 James Naylor
born, High Crompton,
Lancashire. (1930-32)
A £4,000 signing from Huddersfield Town in the summer of 1930,
right half Jimmy was part of the Terriers side beaten 2-0 by Arsenal in
the FA Cup final earlier that year.
Debuting in a 2-1 opening day defeat at Sheffield Wednesday, he was initially
preferred to Roddie Mackenzie but ultimately failed to dislodge the Magpies
veteran.
Joining Manchester City in October 1932, he soon returned to first club Oldham
Athletic on loan. Later spells came with Macclesfield Town, Nelson and Wigan
Athletic.
Jimmy passed away in August 1983.
1913 John Kelly born, Hetton-le-Hole.
(1933-35)
Forward who began his career at Hetton Juniors, joining
Burnley as an amateur in 1930 (he also found employment as a butcher).
Turning professional at Turf Moor, Jack played for the first team until an
exchange deal with Newcastle during April 1933 - Tom Miller going the
opposite way.
Signed as cover for Jack Allen, Kelly's senior opportunities were limited
but he was a prolific scorer at reserve team level.
Debuting in a 1-1 home draw with Derby County in September 1933, Jack's only
first team goal came in a 2-5 to Brentford at Gallowgate almost exactly a
year later.
Joining Leeds United in a £1,150 deal in February 1935, he moved again to Birmingham
in 1938.
Kelly was on the books of Bury during the
abortive 1939/40 season that was abandoned after three games to due to the outbreak of
World War II.
Returning to live in his hometown of Hetton-le-Hole, his death was confirmed
during 2000.
1945 David Ford
born, Sheffield.
(1969-71)
Winger who began his
career at Sheffield
Wednesday and moved
to Tyneside in
December 1969,
Jackie Sinclair
going to
Hillsborough in a
part-exchange deal.
Capped twice at
England U23 level
(one of which came
against Scotland at
SJP in 1967), David
made a scoring debut
for the Magpies in a
4-0 home win over
Ipswich.
However, he faced
competition for the
number 11 shirt from
Alan Foggon and
David Young and left
after barely a year.
Another
part-exchange deal
took him from SJP to
Bramall Lane (along
with goalkeeper John
Hope) in January
1971 and brought
striker John Tudor
to Gallowgate.
David moved on to
Halifax Town in 1973
and following his
retirement worked as
a plumber in the
Sheffield area. He
was also involved in
the licensed trade.
1947 Alex Reid
born, Glasgow,
Scotland.
(1971-73)
On the books at Ibrox, although he only appeared twice for the
Rangers first team, winger Alex made his name at Dundee United and faced
Newcastle when the two sides met in the 1969/70 Fairs Cup.
Arriving at SJP in October 1971 with Ian Mitchell going to Tannadice in
exchange, Alex made his Magpies debut soon after in a 2-1 home victory over
Nottingham Forest.
Never a regular starter, Reid faded out of the first team picture in the
1972/73 season and was moved on to Greenock Morton for a fee of £20K in
October 1973.
A return to Dundee United came in 1975 but he was soon on the move again,
joining Ayr United. However a knee injury caused him to retire just a few
months later, in 1977.
Reid later emigrated
to Canada where he
settled in the
Vancouver area. It
was reported in 1998
that he took his own
life.
1979 Damien Duff
born, Ballyboden,
Ireland.
(2006-09)
Republic of Ireland international winger signed as a teenager by Blackburn Rovers, debuting
for the senior side in May 1997.
Winning a League Cup winners medal in 2001, Duff left Ewood
Park for Chelsea for £17m in summer 2003 - a year
after his headline grabbing displays at the World
Cup Finals.
However, his time at Stamford Bridge was affected by injury
- although that didn't stop him scoring against us twice and
collecting two Premiership winners' medals.
Declared surplus to requirements, a decent- looking £5m deal
was agreed and he moved to SJP in July 2006, amid claims
that both Spurs and Liverpool had tabled bids.
Duff's first appearance came in a home friendly against PSV
Eindhoven, his full United debut following in an Intertoto
Cup tie against Ventspils played in Riga.
And when he scored
his first goal in a win at West Ham soon after, the future
looking bright for Damien and United.
A damaged cartilage
at Arsenal in November sidelined him for a month however,
and he missed another six weeks after just a single comeback
game.
Returning in late January 2007, Duff showed little as Glenn
Roeder's side under-performed in the League and exited the
UEFA Cup at the hands of AZ Alkmaar.
An innocuous-looking knock during a defeat at Portsmouth
that April then kept him out of action for eight months -
although many of those present initially believed that he
just wanted to come off.
Duff's next comeback coincided with end of Sam Allardyce's
reign - with only his second toon goal against Stoke City at
SJP on the night of Kevin Keegan's return.
Reaching the end of
that season without further incident, a much reduced pace
brought some criticism of his fitness.
The benefits of a
full pre-season became apparent though in July 2008, when
Damien
hit a hat trick in pre-season at Hartlepool and looked leaner and sharper.
Again though injury
struck and he missed a month after taking a whack on the
knee in the home win over Bolton - only our second
competitive fixture of the season.
By the time Duff
returned, Kevin Keegan had made way for Chris Hughton and within a couple of games Joe Kinnear had turned
up.
Netting in front of the new United boss in a 2-2 draw at
Everton, further goals
followed against Spurs and West Bromwich Albion- before
injury again put him out of action in February 2009.
Returning for the final weeks of the season, Duff played in
all eight games Alan Shearer managed; some at emergency left back.
However, his chief contribution during was to
unwittingly deflect Gareth Barry's shot
past Steve Harper in the final game of the season at Aston
Villa - sealing our relegation fate.
Duff went on the record to claim that he was prepared
to play in the Championship for Newcastle, as he had done
following his relegation with Blackburn in 1998.
However, after just one game - during which he scored our
first goal outside the top flight since Andy Cole - he
signed for Fulham in a reported £2.5m deal.
While Michael Owen was pilloried for not pulling his
weight at SJP, seeing Duff cavorting round like a spring
lamb and scoring goals for fun at The Cottagers stuck in
the throat of this Toon fan.
However, his departure and the consequent reduction in the
wage bill/fee collected allowed Chris Hughton to retain
other high earners in his squad, to good effect.
Inevitably he scored the only goal of the game at Craven
Cottage in 2010/11 when he faced his former employers, away
fans' boos once again a precursor to the strike.
Winning the penalty for Fulham's equaliser in January 2012 -
a game they won 5-2 - that December saw yet another example
of Toon fans abusing Duff and being instantly repaid, when
he took a free kick from which the Cottagers netted their
winner.
You'd think we'd learn, wouldn't you?
Duff finally exited from Fulham following relegation from
the Premier League in May 2014 and agreed a one year deal to
play for Australian side Melbourne City.
However, serious calf and ligament damage sidelined
him and raised doubts about whether he'd be able to continue
playing.
Returning from Australia, Damien joined League of Ireland
side Shamrock Rovers on an 18 month deal, pledging to donate
all of his wages to charity.
After just nine games though, he called time on his playing
career in December 2015.
Coaching roles with Rovers - initially the U15s and then
later assisting the first team - followed, in addition to a
youth role with the Ireland national team.
Recruited by Brendan Rodgers to oversee Celtic reserves in
late 2018, he was soon promoted to the first team staff
following the replacement of Rodgers by Neil Lennon.
Named as assistant coach to Republic of Ireland head
coach Stephen Kenny in April 2020, Damien quit his Celtic post
soon after and left the Ireland role in January
2021.
Appointed manager of LOI side Shelbourne in
November 2021, he guided them to the title in 2024 and then
stepped down as manager in June 2025.
Most recently, Duff worked as a match analyst for FIFA at
the U17 World Cup

It's reported that this game failed to
result in any profit for the hosts, who actually ended the day nearly £30 in
arrears!
That was due in part to the decision by some Newcastle fans to attend the
mackems v Bolton Wanderers FA Cup tie at Roker Park.

Every member of the Newcastle team netted
including goalkeeper Matt Kingsley, MacFarlane the only one who headed in rather

Without both Bill
McCracken and Colin Veitch,
league leaders Newcastle saw
their lead over Everton
shrink to five points after

McCracken was unavailable
due to an abcess on his arm,
while Veitch was non-playing

A rearguard action

"We're in it together, from

athletes who can run and fight and challenge.

United crashed out of the FA Cup in extra-time
after the intervention of VAR saw Anthony Gordon sent off and Fabian
Schar's late winner ruled out at SJP.
It meant Gordon would miss the Carabao Cup Final and Schar's fabulous volley was ruled to be
millimetres offside thanks to the new semi-automated technology.
Alexander Isak scored from the spot after ex-Magpie Yakuba
Minteh upended Tino Livramento but Minteh's effort flew in
off Kieran Trippier's boot to level the tie.
After both teams were reduced to ten men, Danny Welbeck scored in extra time. He
also hit Albion's winner in the home league meeting earlier in the season.
