Isak fitness concern
From the Swedish FA, Thursday:
Alexander Isak missed
Wednesday's training due to a feeling*.
On Wednesday evening, Alexander was examined by, among others,
our medical team and it was established that he will not be
available for games against either Serbia or Slovenia.
Alexander will therefore leave the squad.
(* we're interpreting that as an unspecified ailment).
Sweden coach Janne Andersson:
"It is of course sad mainly for
Alex but also for us as a team. But after speaking with both our
medical team and Alex, it is the right decision for him to leave.
"I hope he is back as soon as possible. Currently, we will not take
out any new players. Now the full focus is on the preparations
against Serbia on Saturday."
Alexander Isak:
"It feels very sad to have to
leave the team. I had longed to play in the blue and yellow shirt
again. I wish the boys the best of luck on Saturday and Tuesday."
Sweden face Serbia in Belgrade on Saturday and then host
Slovenia in Stockholm on Tuesday.
Isak is the second Magpie to withdraw from international duty, Elliot Anderson
failing to join up with Scotland U21s due to an unspecified injury.
Bruno
Guimaraes meanwhile missed Friday's Brazil game due to a swollen
thigh but hasn't been ruled out of their game on Tuesday as yet.
PS: On-loan goalkeeper Martin Dubravka has left the
Slovakia squad due to injury.

Latest:
Elliot extended
From NUFC, Wednesday:
Newcastle United is delighted to
confirm that Elliot Anderson has signed a new long-term
contract with the club.
The 19-year-old has committed
his future to the club after breaking into the Magpies first team
this season under Eddie Howe, making four appearances - three of
them coming in the Premier League - so far in 2022/23.
Whitley Bay-born Anderson came
through United's Academy before making his senior Newcastle debut in
an FA Cup tie at Arsenal in January 2021, with a top flight bow
coming against the same opposition later that month.
He spent the second half of last
term on loan at Bristol Rovers where he impressed, scoring the goal
which sealed promotion to League One for Joey Barton's men on the
final day, before returning to Tyneside, with Howe handing him his
first competitive start in last month's Carabao Cup win over
Tranmere Rovers.
Elliot Anderson said: "I'm
really happy. I love playing for Newcastle United, and committing my
future to the club is something I've really wanted to do.
"It was my aim coming back into
pre-season to work hard and earn the opportunity to stick around. I
have really enjoyed being with the first team group, so hopefully I
can keep improving and contribute to the team."
Newcastle United head coach,
Eddie Howe, added: "We are all delighted with Elliot's development.
He is a natural talent, but he also has an excellent work ethic and
always wants to learn.
"I know our supporters will be
especially pleased to see another local boy coming through from the
Academy into the first team. Elliot has earned that chance, and he
has set a great example to our young players.
"He is just at the start of his
journey at this level but he has a very exciting future ahead and we
are delighted that his journey will continue here."
The Magpies' sporting director,
Dan Ashworth, said: "Our strategy is not just about who we can buy,
it is also about who we have and how we nurture and develop our best
young talent.
"It's crucial for the club and
our Academy to provide a pathway for our young players and a belief
that if they are good enough, they will get an opportunity to play.
"Steve Harper with the Academy
and Eddie Howe and his staff have been brilliant with Elliot. They
have given him an opportunity and some great coaching and
development to enable him to get to this level.
"Elliot has shown he has the
attributes to have a successful career at this level and we hope he
will be here for a long time to come."

Update:
SJP in frame for
Euro 2028 bid
From ITV, Wednesday:
Newcastle has launched a bid to be a host city for matches
in Euro 2028.
Both Newcastle City Council and Newcastle United have thrown
their hat into the ring for St James' Park to host fixtures at the
competition.
If successful, it would be one of at least ten stadiums used
during the tournament.
Earlier this year, the UK and Ireland put forward a joint bid
to host the tournament in 2028 and will find out if they have been
successful in September 2023.
Bidding nations will have to put forward a final dossier to
UEFA in April, meaning decisions on potential host cities will have
to be made in the coming months.
With a capacity of more than 52,000, St James’ Park is the
eighth biggest stadium in England and the fourth largest outside of
London.
The ground has previously played host to international
fixtures at Euro 1996 and the 2012 London Olympics - as well as
other sporting occasions, like the 2015 Rugby World Cup and rugby’s
Heineken Cup final in 2019.
A Newcastle City Council spokesperson said: “This is fantastic news
for the city, and demonstrates that we can compete with the rest of
the UK to host major events.
“The tournament is viewed by three billion people worldwide,
and hosting it would put Newcastle on an international stage and
bring significant social and economic benefits to the city.
“At this stage, the FA have requested an early response from
bidding cities that they can commit to meeting the requirements
necessary to qualify as a potential host city. The process is
extremely competitive as we go up against many other leading
football cities with stadiums that meet the requirements of the FA
and UEFA."
City councillors are due to meet next month to discuss what
commitments local authorities and Newcastle United would have to
make to stage matches during the Euros.
The Times lists the stadia in contention as:
Wembley, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London Stadium, Villa Park,
Stadium MK, Old Trafford, the Etihad, Everton’s planned Bramley
Moore Dock ground, Stadium of plight and St James’ Park.

Fulham (a)
Newcastle return to Premier League action following the
international break when they face Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday, October 1st.
It's an old-fashioned 3pm start.
NUFC:
Jonjo Shelvey, Emil Krafth and Karl Darlow remain out, while Allan Saint-Maximin's
return from a hamstring problem has been delayed by another unspecified
ailment.
There's optimism that Callum Wilson will be available, but the fitness
of fellow forward Alexander Isak is unclear after he withdrew from the
Sweden squad.

FFC:
Marco Silva's side will be without ever-present Joao Palhinha due to
suspension after he collected his fifth booking. The midfielder has
scored twice already this season in the PL.
The Cottagers are unbeaten at home in their opening three PL games;
sharing four goals with Liverpool, beating Brentford by the odd goal in
five and notching up a 2-1 victory over Brighton.
On the road Fulham began with a 0-0 draw against
Wolves before successive 1-2 losses to Arsenal and Spurs and a 3-2 win
at Nottingham Forest.
A certain Serbian has scored six of his side's 12 PL goals so far this
season, including at least one in each of Fulham's three PL home games
to date.

Fulham have confirmed that 700 seats in the upper tier of their new Riverside Stand
will come into use for our visit.
They went on general sale to home fans only at the eye-watering
price of £90 for adults and £60 for juniors.
That should ensure a crowd of over 25,500 for our visit,
although still some way off the eventual capacity of around 30,000.
Newcastle received the anticipated 2,300 places at the Putney End and
unlike previous seasons, the so-called neutral sections are no longer
available, with the home club issuing this guidance:
"Bookings made by supporters who live in Newcastle (and local areas)
who do not hold a booking history with Fulham FC will be cancelled as
this match is on General Sale to home supporters only."

TV alterations
The Premier League have confirmed details of their live TV selections for November
- also revealing a further change to a previously-altered Newcastle
live game.
That alteration sees the Spurs away game move from the advertised
Saturday 5.30pm slot on October 22nd to Sunday October 23rd at
4.30pm, live on Sky.
Both United's November PL games are live on TV:
Sun 06.11.2022 Southampton (a) 2pm Sky
Sat 12.11.2022 Chelsea (h) 5.30pm Sky
On the plus side, a further shift for the Spurs game gives Eddie Howe's
side an extra day to recover from playing Everton the previous Wednesday night.
From a supporter perspective however, it's another low blow. Holding off
on booking transport and hotels etc. until TV fixture changes are
confirmed is one thing, but to then go back and alter games again on a
whim is quite another.
F*cking the fans, yet again.

On This Day in History |
|
24th September |
|
Born Or Died:
1877 Thomas Bruce Niblo born,
Dunfermline. (1898-1902 & 1907-08)
Forward who began his career with
Hamilton Academical and moved to SJP from now-
defunct Scottish League side Linthouse.
Making his debut in a 1-0 away win at Loughborough
Town in April 1898 and was a regular starter the
following season.
Losing his place in the team during the 1901/02
campaign, a transfer taking Tom to Middlesbrough
was agreed but turned out to be a loan rather than
a permanent deal.
Moving on instead to Aston Villa (where he won a
Scottish cap against England), Nottingham Forest
and Watford, a second stint on Tyneside came in
1907 - although he never appeared for the first
team.
Subsequently playing for both
Aberdeen and Raith Rovers back in his native
Scotland, Niblo was injured while fighting in WW1 and died
in 1933.
1933 John Nesbitt born,
Washington.
(1955-59)
Defender and former Coldstream
Guardsman who was signed from South Shields in
December 1955.
John's senior debut came 24 hours
after his 24th birthday in September 1957, when he
deputised for Bob Stokoe in a 0-0 home draw
against Sheffield Wednesday.
Two further first team outings followed that
season - a 3-2 win at Arsenal and 0-3 reverse at
Leeds - before he moved on, joining non-league
side Horden CW.
1947
James Curran born, Macclesfield
(1964-66)
Goalkeeper
who was on the books of Manchester United as a
youngster, but was restricted to junior and
reserve team outings before moving on to
Newcastle.
Failing to make a first team appearance at
Gallowgate. Jimmy joined Crewe Alexandra and had
later spells at both Oldham Athletic and Witton
Albion.
Returning to Old Trafford as a youth coach in
1974, Curran served the Red Devils for the next 28
years as a physiotherapist.
1966 Franz Carr born, Preston
(1991-93)
Ooh ah indeed - a winger who could
run like the wind and show good ball skills, but
unfortunately for him (and us) only very
occasionally in the same passage of play....
Having been spotted by Blackburn Rovers scout Fred
O'Donoghue as a schoolboy, Carr moved on to
Nottingham Forest and was capped by England U21s.
However, he found himself out of favour and loaned
to Sheffield Wednesday and West Ham before being
brought to SJP by Ossie Ardiles at a cost of £250K
in May 1991.
Carr scored on his Magpies debut at Upton Park
against then-tenants Charlton Athletic, although
we lost that season opener 1-2.
The end for Carr at United came in January 1993
when Kevin Keegan allowed him to join Sheffield
United on loan - a move that was made permanent
three months later.
Later spells with Leicester City, Aston Villa,
Italian side Reggiana, Bolton and West Brom then
followed before Carr tried his hand in the USA
with the Pittsburgh Riverhounds.
He was last heard of living in Nottingham and
working as a player's agent.
1994 Lewis Aird born,
Newcastle.
(2011-14)
Defender who began playing as a
schoolboy for Newcastle at the age of 12, joining
from Walker Central.
Accepted into United's Academy ahead of the
2011/12 season, Lewis was part of a young Magpies
Reserve XI who won 2-1 at Berwick Rangers in July
2011.
However, medial and cruciate knee ligament
injuries sustained delayed his U18 debut and
sidelined Aird for a year - his 18th birthday
coinciding with a return to training.
Featuring just once from the bench for the second
string in competitive fixtures during the
following season, Lewis was loaned out to Team
Northumbria.
Following his release by United, he accepted a
scholarship at Northeastern University in Boston,
USA, playing for their Huskies side while studying Physiotherapy.

11,381
A miserable attendance at Old Trafford as the Charity
Shield was lost again, with the home side fielding

the first team barred by the abundance of talent at SJP.

Division Two
P7, 11pts, 7th/24
29,499
After a four year break, the derby fixture returned,
played on a Sunday with a noon KO at Joker Park on police
advice.
As usual there was more action off the pitch than on it,
as Jim Smith's side came for a point and got it in a game
of few chances.

of Pavel Srnicek's goal twice before the interval.

unlikely victory, thanks to Andy Hunt and a Gavin Peacock
hat trick.

our defensive options were
further weakened by the dismissal of Philippe Albert.

Premier League
P7, 18pts, 1st/20
Ferdinand(41,57)
36,225
Les Ferdinand's seventh and eighth Premier League
goals for the club were enough to defeat Glenn Hoddle's
side at SJP and leave Newcastle top of the table with 18
points from a possible 21.
The visitors included ex-Magpie Gavin Peacock plus a trio
of players who would subsequently have off-field roles for
Newcastle: Ruud Gullit, Steve Clarke and Dennis Wise.

Some United fans were left stranded in England after
booking a non-existent excursion. Happily, the
perpetrator was tracked down, found guilty of
deception and imprisoned.
Live TV coverage was provided by an obscure cable company
of a game that later saw Kevin Keegan accuse his players
of complacency after the 4-0 first leg win.

Premier League
P5, 12pts, 7th/20
Lee(87)
36,705
United's positive start to the season continued with a
fourth league victory in five outings - although this
Wednesday night success was a world away from the 3-2
Champions League win over Barcelona a week earlier.
Visiting defender Slaven Bilic was red carded on 72 minutes
for pulling a goalbound Tino Asprilla down before Rob Lee
shot home via the inside of the bar after Ian Rush's first
effort was blocked.
Managed by Howard Kendall, the Toffees included
old boy Steve Watson and future Magpies Gary Speed and
Duncan Ferguson.

Champions League Group E Match 2

Two games, two defeats left us bottom of Group E and
already favourites to tumble out of the competition.
There was no lack of effort from the home side, but
despite registering 20 shots on target. no breakthrough
came. Bobby Robson said after the game that his side "need
a bit of luck", which would duly come to pass....

36,007
A phenomenal 3,500 NAC fans travelled and their black
& yellow colours appeared in bars across Tyneside in
something of a friendly invasion.
Half time hero was Brian Kilcline, clad in a pair of
black & white tartan trousers and sporting a wild hair
and wizard's beard combo. He received a fine reception,
although it's possible some fans in Level 7 thought it was
actually Billy Connolly...

Titus Bramble and Tony Hibbert were given their marching

numerous chances to claim all three points.
Shola
Ameobi gave United an early lead, but within ten minutes
had limped off with an ankle problem. A

incurred.

A fourth successive United loss and a rare success for
visiting boss, Juande Ramos.
Off the field, speculation about two
former Spurs favourites was rife: claims that Terry
Venables would assist caretaker boss Chris Hughton and that Paul
Gascoigne had died. Both parties concerned denied
the rumours....

2009 Aston Villa confirmed that their unwanted
striker Marlon Harewood had completed a three month
loan move to SJP.
Chris
Hughton told reporters that he was:
"Delighted to have him on board, he brings with him
both physical presence and experience, which is what we're
looking for at the moment.
"Hopefully he will give us more options, which we
need with Shola Ameobi still injured for the foreseeable
future."
2011 Just
hours before they inflicted a league defeat on Blackburn
Rovers, United were paired with them in the Fourth Round
of the Carling Cup - our third successive away draw.

Paul
Dummett was the unlikely hero at Selhurst Park as ten-man
United won in extra-time to set up a visit to cup holders
Manchester City.
Emmanuel Riviere's first goals for the club looked to have
sent Alan Pardew's side through but Sullay Kaikai grabbed
a dramatic late leveller.
Despite the loss of Mehdi Abeid in extra time after a
second yellow card, Dummett's brave header won the tie for
the Magpies.

Conceding a late equaliser thanks to Aleksandar Mitrovic's
brainless loss of possession and goalkeeper Matz Sels
losing his bearings, Newcastle dropped down to
fifth in the table.
Gifted
a goal by Roberto Di Matteo's Villans, United missed
numerous chances to wrap up the points, with Dwight Gayle
and Mo Diame both at fault.
Cheick Tiote's first appearance of the season came after
Jack Colback withdrew from the squad, amid reports
that the Ivorian midfielder could leave in the coming days
to join a club in the UAE.

Seagulls boss Chris Hughton finally beating his old side
at the seventh attempt.
Pleasingly, some of the 3,000 travelling supporters
spotted and admonished former Toon manager turned TV
pundit Graeme Souness as he left the ground post-match.
Not forgiven, not forgotten.
