Cup of joy
Charlton Athletic U18s 2 Newcastle U18s 3
Newcastle's U18 side beat Charlton Athletic
3-2
in the FA Youth Cup Third Round this evening at The Valley.
Level 1-1 at the break, after Ben Parkinson opened the scoring in the
14th minute only for Daniel Kanu to equalise a minute before half-time.
The home side took the lead through Toby Bower six minutes into the second
half but the young Magpies hit back and scored twice through Parkinson
(57mins) and then Johnny Emerson (71mins) to make it into the Fourth
Round.
Team: to follow.
United had never played the Addicks in this competition before.
Charlton entered this season’s competition in the First Round, reaching this
stage thanks to home victories over Kingstonian (9-0) and Northampton Town
(4-1).
Last season the young Magpies got to the Fifth Round, following up a fine
3-2 away win at West Ham United with another 3-2 victory at home to
Colchester United before the run ended with a 0-3 defeat at Blackpool.
U21s:
No solace for
second string
Newcastle U21s 0 Sheffield United U21s 1
Newcastle's U21s lost their latest PL Cup game at Whitley Park on
Monday evening and are still looking for their first point in the
competition, having been defeated in all of their first four games.
The visitors had the ball in the back of the net in the sixth minute
when Louie Marsh side footed home a right wing cross but was denied
by an offside flag.
But the Blades did take the lead in the 37th minute when a loose
ball broke to Leo Gaxha and he lashed it beyond Jude Smith.
The home side's best effort in the first period was a tame Amadou
Diallo free-kick midway through the half that was parried by the
'keeper and Isaac Westendorf fired the rebound into the side
netting.
Seven minutes after the break Josh Scott had a long range effort
turned over.
And in the second minute of added time a home corner was met by a
thunderous Charlie Wiggett header that the 'keeper saved one-handed
and then blocked the rebound to secure the victory for his side.
Team: Smith, Barclay, Hackett, Carlyon, Wiggett, Brookwell,
Scott, J.Miley (Ndiweni 75), Westendorf (Munoz 65), Huntley, Diallo
(Crossley 65).
Subs n/u: M.Thompson, Stewart.
Booked: Carlyon.
SUFC: Hiddlestone, Sachdev, Buyabu, Potter, Barratt, Gomis,
Hampson, Staniland, Gaxha, Marsh, Smith (T.Williams 65).
Subs n/u: L.Williams, Hampshaw, Pitan.
Booked: Sachdev, Smith.
Crowd: 99.
Thanks again to GW.
Missing from the home squad were Lewis Miley, Alex Murphy, Dylan
Stephenson, Jay Turner-Cooke and Joe White who have flown out to
Riyadh with the first team.
Sheffield
United won their home game against the Magpies 2-1 last week.

2022/23:
More Toon
travel misery
Update:
The latest train strike dates now include December 26th,
affecting our trip to Leicester City.
Earlier rom the BBC:
"Rail passengers face further disruption after the RMT union
announced more strike dates.
The strikes will be held across four 48-hour periods on 13-14 and 16-17
December and 3-4 and 6-7 January."
That will affect fans travelling to Arsenal v Newcastle on January 3rd
and also United’s FA Cup Third Round tie the following weekend against
Sheffield Wednesday.
Friendly:
Al-Hilal (a)
Eddie Howe’s squad are undergoing what has
been termed as a “mini pre-season” in the Saudi Arabian city of
Riyadh, consisting of a training camp and a friendly match against
Saudi Professional League side Al-Hilal on Thursday.
This will be United’s second kickabout in Saudi Arabia this year,
following a 2-1 victory over Al-Ittihad in Jeddah back in January.
Following the Al Hilal game, the Magpies return to the UK where a
home friendly against Spaniards Rayo Vallecano has been arranged for
Saturday December 17th.
There are reports that Newcastle will also play a behind closed
doors training match against Football League opposition - presumably
between the Al-Hilal and Vallecano games - but that remains
unconfirmed.
The venue has been confirmed as the 22,000 seat Prince Faisal bin
Fahd Stadium.
Tickets are priced at 25 Saudi Riyals (£5.40) and upwards and available
from the home club
here.
Team: tbc.
The Newcastle party flew out on Sunday.
Nick Pope, Callum Wilson, Kieran Trippier, Fabian Schar and Bruno
Guimaraes are all unavailable due to international duty. Dan Burn wasn’t
on the club flight but is travelling separately to Riyadh.
It’s anticipated that Alexander Isak, Karl Darlow, Paul Dummett and Matt
Ritchie will feature as they return following injury.
Emil Krafth is with the squad but it's unclear what stage of his
recovery he's at. Loris Karius is present.
The Newcastle party also includes five members of the club’s U21 squad;
namely Lewis Miley, Alex Murphy, Dylan Stephenson, Jay Turner-Cooke and
Joe White.
AH: The hosts had no less 12 representatives in the Saudi Arabia
squad who exited from the World Cup at the group stage.
Referee: tbc
Live UK TV: The game will be broadcast live and free of charge on

Premier League:
Palace (a)
rail disruption
Notwithstanding the ongoing threat of industrial action, anyone planning
their rail journey to the Crystal Palace away game next month from the
region faces further disruption.
That’s due to planned engineering work between Newcastle and York that will
close the East Coast Mainline entirely on Saturday 21st January and Sunday
22nd January.
As a result, all LNER Kings Cross services will start and terminate at York,
with a reduced connecting rail service to and from Newcastle via Hartlepool
and a rail replacement bus service calling at Darlington, Durham and
Newcastle.
NB: Grand Central trains between sunderland and Kings Cross will
still operate that weekend, but Lumo services won’t run south of Newcastle.
PS: the same full line closure and arrangements also apply during the
previous weekend, disrupting fans travelling to our home game versus Fulham
on Sunday January 15th.

FA Cup:
It's... Sheff Wed (a)
The FA Cup 3rd Round draw
took place on Monday evening at Anfield and Newcastle were drawn away at
League One Sheffield Wednesday.
The tie has been selected for live TV transmission by BBC and
will kick-off at 6pm on Saturday 7th January.
Our
last cup meeting with the Owls was their 1-0 League Cup success on
Tyneside in September 2015.
The last of six FA Cup clashes was a 2-1 home win for United in 1981
when Chris Waddle starred for the Magpies.
And, of course, our last FA Cup game at Hillsborough ended in Semi-final
success way back in March 1974 when Supermac scored twice against
Burnley.
Wednesday have got to this
stage of the competition courtesy of home wins over Morecambe (2-0) and
Mansfield Town (2-1) in Rounds One and Two.

An update from NUFC historian
Paul Joannou:
WHO’S WHO UPDATE
Since the club’s 400-page Ultimate Who’s Who was published back in
2014, I have continued a never-ending task to record player facts
and delve into the past for more and more information.
Published this month is the first Who’s Who Supplement which
includes new and updated data on the ‘Men Who Made United’ since
formation as Stanley FC in 1881 to the close-season of 2014.
It is intended to provide supporters periodical updates of both the
Ultimate Record and Ultimate Who’s Who since the original
publications. The same format is used in this update as the core
Who’s Who. A second supplement is planned to include all United’s
‘New Arrivals’ since 2014.
Material available for research has increased year on year. Access
to the British Newspaper Archive (BNA) has given a huge source of
information from thousands of newspaper titles around the country,
all to view on-line.
This wasn’t available back in 2014 and the result is an enormous
bank of contemporary reports noting United’s footballers; simply a
treasure-trove which has added detail of players’ careers as well as
their lives once retired.
The 88-page book is an essential add-on to those enthusiasts who
have the original volume which includes biographies of all players,
managers, coaches & support staff as well as directors.
Priced at £12 and published by Novo Publishing, the book is
available at The Back Page and orders via the nufc.com website will
commence in December.
PS: for those asking about the 2021/22 season update PDF to the
Ultimate Record, this will be included in the forthcoming supplement
(no firm publication date is available).
Before that though, the usual free PDF copy will be emailed out to
previous subscribers in early December.

On This Day in History |
|
6th December |
|
Born Or Died:
1915 Benny Craig born, Leadgate, Durham. (1938-50)
As a player and coach, Benny served
United for over 40 years after arriving in a £4,000
move from Huddersfield Town.
Finding employment as a brickworker, he'd moved to the
Terriers on amateur forms in 1934 - also having trials
at both Arsenal and the mackems.
Debuting in a 0-3 loss at Blackburn Rovers in November
1938, the full back played in the abortive 1939/40
season before league football was suspended and then
joined the Royal Artillery - seeing service in Europe
and winning the Military Medal for his part in the
Anzio landings.
Returning to the club after WW2, Craig was part of the
side who clinched promotion to Division One in 1948
and played on in the top flight until the 1949/50
season.
Benny then became assistant trainer and also worked
with the club's younger players - coaching the side
who captured the FA Youth Cup in 1962 and helping to
develop players such as Bob Moncur and David Craig.
His death was recorded in January 1982.
1951 David Mills born, Whitby.
(1982 & 1983-84)
Another player who served the Magpies
in both onfield and off-field roles, Mills hit the
headlines in 1979 when he became the first £500K
footballer - the record transfer fee seeing him leave
Boro for West Brom.
His career stalled at the Hawthorns however and a loan
move brought him to SJP for the second half of the
1980/81 season.
Despite impressing, no transfer deal was concluded and
Mills ended up swapping the Baggies for Sheffield
Wednesday.
He was to get his transfer to Tyneside though in 1983,
when a part-exchange deal with Imre Varadi was
concluded.
And his contribution to our promotion campaign is
often overlooked, with vital strikes against Fulham
and Swansea, plus a goal on the day that a top-flight
return was confirmed, with a 2-2 draw at Huddersfield.
Departing from Newcastle, Mills returned to
Middlesbrough and also appeared for both Darlington
and Whitby Town.
However, the events of January 1988 proved to be
life-changing for him, as he survived a fatal car
crash in the Tyne Tunnel but had to undergo extensive
facial surgery.
After working in the local sports media, Mills
returned to SJP as a scout in 1995 and served seven
managers in over a decade.
He was then recruited by Boro in a
similar role in 2008, before joining Hull City.
1956 Peter Kelly born, East
Kilbride, Scotland. (1973-81)
Right back who came through the junior
ranks at SJP and seemed destined for great things,
debuting against Chester City in a home League Cup tie
in December 1974.
However, Kelly's time on Tyneside was blighted by a
cruciate injury sustained in a game at Luton Town in
December 1978.
That injury ultimately forced him out of professional
football, although he did continue to play for
Gateshead.
Peter also ran a newsagents in West
Denton for a time, along with fellow former Magpie and
Tynesiders team mate, Terry Hibbitt.
1967 Ian Bogie born, Walker. (1986-89)
Initially billed as the next 'Gazza',
midfielder Bogie came to United's attention playing
for Wallsend Boys Club and showed promise in our 1985
FA Youth Cup winning side.
However, his career at United was curtailed by manager
Jim Smith in the 1988/89 season, Bogie joining Preston
North End in order to secure regular first team
football - United taking Gary Brazil in exchange.
Later moves took him to Millwall, Leyton Orient, Port
Vale and Kidderminster Harriers, before a back injury
forced him to quit.
Bogie then finished his playing career at Bedlington
Terriers before managing Walker Central and coaching
at Tyne Met College.
Moving on to become assistant boss at Gateshead in
2006, he took charge of the Tynesiders a year later.
Under Ian's guidance, the Tynesiders gained successive
promotions from the Northern Premier League and
Conference North to the National Conference.
After three and a half seasons at the International
Stadium, poor results led to Bogie's dismissal in
December 2012 - returning to management at Conference
rivals Stockport County the following March.
Failing to avoid relegation, he resigned in August
2013 after a poor start to the following season.
Bogie later coached youngsters at Newcastle United's
Academy.

52, in mysterious circumstances while serving on an
oil tanker in the Persian Gulf. (1949-53)
1998 Cedwyn Scott born,
Hexham. (2020)
November 2020 saw Newcastle grant a trial to Hebburn Town's
prolific striker after he'd found the net 21 times in just 14 games for the
Northern League side.
Scott was with Huddersfield Town’s academy before playing senior football in
Scotland with Dundee, Berwick Rangers and Forfar Athletic.
Darlington offered Cedwyn a trial in the summer 2019, after which he
moved to Dunston UTS before joining Hebburn in early 2020.
Spending four weeks training with United's U23 squad, he made two
appearances in Premier League 2 and also appeared against former club
Huddersfield but didn't get on the scoresheet in any of them.
Newcastle declined to offer him a contract and Scott went back to Hebburn
before agreeing a short-term deal at Carlisle United.
Failing to find the net in seven League Two outings (all from the bench),
Cedwyn left Brunton Park in May 2021 and signed for Gateshead.
After finding the net 22 times for the Tynesiders, Cedwyn signed for Notts
County in June 2022.

"pools of water dotted all over."
Forward Andy Smailes made his debut for the Magpies and

Newcastle started well but couldn't force the ball
past the imposing figure of David Seaman in the Gunners
goal.
However, after Ian Wright ended his long goal famine
(revealing a T-shirt with the words "At Last" on
it), United became disheartened.
With Alan Shearer still missing and Tino Asprilla barely
contributing, the striking burden fell on veteran John
Barnes and youngster Jon Dahl Tomasson - with neither
impressing home fans.

For
the fourth season in a row, Michael Owen was missing from
the Liverpool side - an attendance record he'd maintain in
later years, when on our payroll....
The atmosphere wasn't helped by a Saturday lunchtime
kick-off for TV , and when Jonathan Woodgate and
Titus Bramble emulated Laurel and Hardy to give Danny
Murphy a free shot at Shay Given, things looked bleak.
However, a second revival gained some reward when Chris
Kirkland made contact with Laurent Robert in the area;
Alan Shearer slamming home the
resultant penalty.
Seemingly set for a second victory in as many seasons over
the Reds, United couldn't press home their advantage:
Liverpool twice clearing off their goal line form and Shola
Ameobi guilty of two late misses.

Antoine Sibierski had
headed United in front, but a brace from James Harper gave The Royals
an interval advantage.
Obafemi Martins then went down in the area
under challenge from Ibrahima Sonko and Rob Styles awarded a
slightly soft spot kick.
After prolonged negotiations with the allotted penalty
taker Nobby Solano, Martins stepped up to beat Marcus Hahnemann
for his first league goal on home soil.
Reading's Harper then lost possession on the halfway line
to Emre, who advanced on goal and with defenders back-pedalling,
drove home a fine swerving effort
to win it.

Future Potter Michael Owen netted twice as Joe Kinnear's
side tied the visitors in knots with fluent attacking
moves and the three points seemed to be in the bag by half
time.
Danny Guthrie remained in the dressing room with a hip
problem however and with no midfielders on the bench,
United altered their formation and sat on their lead.
City eventually accepted the invitation to have a go at us
and after a route one goal, went in search of an equaliser.
Their chance appeared to have gone when former Magpie
defender Abdoulaye Faye missed a good chance in the last
minute.
However, he made no mistake from close range when another
chance presented itself, with JFK sent to the stands for
protesting about the free-kick which led to Faye's goal.

A measure of Alan Pardew's disinterest in the tie was his
decision to recall Nile Ranger, while both Mehdi Abeid and
James Tavenier also started.
And
had it not been for some outstanding saves from Rob
Elliot, the punishment could have been more severe. Future

Cisse claimed another memorable brace against the Blues; Jose Mourinho's men
losing their
unbeaten record for the season and leaving SJP empty-handed
for the third time in a row.
But there were 15 minutes of absolute torture for United
to endure as Steven Taylor was sent off, Didier Drogba
scored and a ludicrous six and a half minutes of added
time was eventually seen out before Alan Pardew marked his
fourth anniversary as Newcastle manager in style.
And the incredible result was achieved with third choice
goalkeeper, Jak Alnwick, replacing the injured Rob Elliot
at the break and the young stopper played his part in a
magnificent second half display on his senior debut.
