2026/27:
Coventry City (a)  
 

Newcastle return to action next Monday (October 12th), making their Premier League bow at the Coventry Building Society Stadium - which will become the 62nd different ground to have hosted us in that competition.

It's an 8pm kick-off, live on Sky Sports and all 3,030 away section tickets are sold out. The deadline for returns to the club is this Friday (9th) at 5pm and

United won both previous visits to this venue when known as the Ricoh Arena: a 3-2 League Cup success during 2008 and a 2-0 Championship victory the following year. 

Team: Amar Dedic and Nico Gonzalez are expected to return while Dan Burn and Joelinton should be available for selection for the first time this season.

News on the fitness of Jacob Ramsey, Anthony Elanga and Will Osula is awaited while there are doubts over Lewis Miley, Tino Livramento and Ewen Jaouen after their withdrawals from international duty. Miley at least is apparently OK.

CCFC: Taiwo Awoniyi is suspended and Haji Wright injured.

Playing in the PL for the first time since 2001, Frank Lampard's Sky Blues have three points after their opening five games.

Beaten 0-3 at Arsenal, their opening home game ended in a 1-0 success for Hull City. Next came a 0-1 reverse away to Manchester City, followed by a 0-5 drubbing by Brighton at the CBS Arena. 

A maiden victory and clean sheet then arrived at the fifth time of asking, winning 1-0 at Nottingham Forest. 

Referee: John Brooks - a first Toon appointment for the Leicestershire-based official since the 2-0 PL home victory against Crystal Palace.

VAR: Constantine Hatzidakis

UK TV: Live on Sky Sports

The game will be on live at WonderBar in The Gate.

Update:
New NUFC crest

Latest: thanks to NUFC.com reader G.Walton, who spotted this new signage outside SJP's Barrack Road entrance. Not part of the additional branding released alongside the new crest (see below), it appears to be no more than the latest in a series of stand-alone stadium logos.

Earlier: the club revealed their new crest on Thursday morning, the first redesigned badge since 1988.

This is how it will look on a shirt, to be used on kits from the 2027/28 season. The new crest will appear online, in the stadium and in other areas immediately - the club shop range already includes clothing.



Further club branding was also unveiled - seemingly inspired by the made-up logos that routinely appear on betting websites and snide merchandise sellers:
 

After seeing four previous badge changes in our lifetime, it's hard to be excited or appalled by amounts to a re-imagining rather than a genuine departure as per Juventus etc.

At the end of an undoubtedly expensive two year journey of consultancy, designing and rebranding, a barely discernible tweak could have been released with few noticing. We're actually unsure which of the three designs in the member vote was actually chosen, given how similar they were!

As ever, the identity and effectiveness of the person kissing the badge is of rather more importance to us....

U21s:
Three in eight

Although they don't return to PL2 action until Sunday week, October 18th, Newcastle U21s have a busy schedule of cup ties before then, playing three in just over a week.

This Tuesday (6th) sees them in National League Cup duty against Solihull Moor at their Damson Park home, looking for their first points in the competition following defeats at both Tamworth and Boreham Wood. That's a 7pm start.

Friday (9th) brings a change of cup, Luton Town visiting Whitley Park in United's opening Premier League Cup group stage game this season. That also gets underway at 7pm.

Robbie Stockdale's side then conclude their National League Cup group stage games on Tuesday week (13th), visiting Hartlepool United in another 7pm kick-off. 

Loan lads:
The Borrowers

Antonio Cordero (Cadiz):
A memorable night for "Antonito" as Cadiz scored four times without reply to beat Leganes at home in Segunda Liga on Saturday - a first win of the season at the eighth attempt.

The on-loan Magpie netted his second and third strikes of the season and supplied a corner that led to another goal.

A low left-footed opener from Cordero beat the opposition goalkeeper at his near post for 1-0 and he then rolled another home with his right foot to make it 3-0

He deservedly earned him a man of the match award. 

See his goals online here

Anthony Munda (Swindon Town):
Anthony completed the entirety of Town's 0-1 defeat at Rochdale in League Two on Saturday.

Oliver Holland (Newcastle Blue Star):
The Academy goalkeeper has made an emergency loan move back to the club he played for as a junior, following injury to former Magpie junior Will Anderson.

Update:
Park gets his gong but young Lions are tamed

Newcastle winger Park Seung-soo was part of the South Korean U23 side who defeated host nation Japan 1-0 to clinch the Asian Games Final on Saturday.

Seeking their fourth consecutive title, South Korea broke the deadlock in Aichi just after the hour with the only goal - Seung-soo coming off the bench in the 90th minute.

In addition to the title and winner's medals, success for the South Koreans brings a reduction in the time that the players will spend completing their national service.

Sadly it was a different story for the England U18s who lost 0-2 to Spain in the Final of the UEFA Friendship Cup.

Of the four Magpies in the squad, only Kyran Thompson started in Nyon and was subbed in the 68th minute before Spain got their second goal in added time. Roman Dowell, Michael Mills and Sam Alabi remained on the bench.

England reached the final after group stage wins against Colombia, Egypt and South Korea; Mills netting twice and Alabi once during that run.

Update:
Metro closure

Scheduled engineering work means that there will be no Metro service in either direction between St James and Monkseaton for a nine day period later this month.

Buses will replace trains on that section of line between Sat 24.10.2026 and Sun 01.11.2026, service resuming on Mon 02.11.2026 - the day of the Everton home game.

Update:
JC back in the saddle

Former Newcastle interim manager John Carver is back in football after five months on the sidelines, taking charge of Polish League side Radomiak Radom.

This is the 61 year-old Tynesider's second stint in Poland, following a spell at Lechia Gdansk from November 2024 until the end of last season, when they were demoted. 

Update:
Coach arrival claimed

From the Daily Record, Tuesday:

Newcastle United are set to raid Kilmarnock for their goalkeeping coach Fraser Stewart.

Killie’s head of goalkeeping is set to join the Magpies’ U21 set-up. The shock move leaves Kilmarnock boss Neil McCann looking for a replacement.

The 37-year-old has been in post at Killie for the last four years. He has worked under Derek McInnes, Stuart Kettlewell and now McCann.

Stewart previously worked with the Scottish Football Association where he was the head of goalkeeping for the Scotland under-21s and Women’s teams.

It had been predicted by some media outlets that Stewart would be reunited with McInnes at Rangers, but his new place of work looks set to be Gallowgate not Ibrox.

Sharing six goals with Aberdeen a week earlier, their afternoon visit to Tannadice saw the goals flow again - but mostly for Newcastle.  Len White helped himself to a hat-trick and laid on another four assists. Malcolm Scott's purple patch in front of goal continued, scoring for the seventh and eighth times in just four games. PS: The Magpies travelled by aeroplane to this game, landing at RAF Leuchars. Fifty years later, they were again at Tannadice for a kickabout but this time had to endure the journey by bus....  Team: S.Mitchell, Whitehead, Ferguson, Scoular (Neale 46), Stokoe, Bell, Hughes, Allchurch (Hale 46), McKinney (Scott 46), Eastham, White. 1963 Swansea Town (h) 4-1 (1-0) Division Two P12, 13pts, 7th/22  Taylor(32), Hilley(65,71), Thomas(86)  Thomas(53) 23,711   1968 Leeds United (h) 0-1 (0-1) Division One P12, 8pts, 19th/22  Charlton(15) 41,999 Future Newcastle boss Jack Charlton won it with a header from a Johnny Giles free kick.   1974 Everton (a) 1-1 (1-0) Division One P10, 13pts, 7th/22  McDermott(36) Buckley(57) 40,000  The Everton equaliser had more than a touch of fortune surrounding it as Mick Buckley's shot hit Malcolm Macdonald and gave Willie McFaul no chance. 1977 Norwich City (a) 1-2 (1-1) Division One P9, 2pts, 22nd/22  T.Craig(10) Peters(22), Reeves(66)  16,630 United's eighth consecutive league defeat came on a Wednesday evening at Carrow Road where reserve coach Willie McFaul stood in for Manager Richard Dinnis. Dinnis had remained on Tyneside to complete the £100K signing of Hibernian defender John Blackley - although his side's problems at the other end of the field were even more acute. 1983 Oxford United (h) 1-1 (0-1) League Cup 2nd Round 1st Leg McDermott(38) Biggins(83) 21,184 Future Magpie boss Jim Smith saw his Third Division side almost pull off a shock at SJP, before Terry McDermott beat Newcastle old boy Steve Hardwick from close range. Visting duo Andy Thomas and Kevin Brock both subsequently wore the black and white. 1985 West Ham United (h) 1-2 (0-2) Division One P11, 18pts, 7th/22  Reilly(84) McAvennie(12), Cottee(25) 26,957 A bad day for Willie McFaul's side, deservedly trailing at half time and losing both Peter Beardsley and David McCreery through injury. George Reilly's sixth goal of the season was of little comfort. 1991 Portsmouth (a) 1-3 (0-2) Division Two P11, 7pts, 24th/24  Quinn(68) Bradshaw(34) Beresford(19pen), og(Stimson)(39), Clarke(55) 10,175  The Gods conspired against Newcastle on a day when simply nothing went right at Fratton Park and they ended up bottom of the table. Driving rain drenched the away support on an uncovered terrace and saturated the pitch as Alan Neilson's slide tackle on Darren Anderton led to a penalty that future Magpie John Beresford converted. Referee Lester Shapter then dismissed Darren Bradshaw for pulling back Colin Clarke, before Clarke's cross was diverted into his own net by Mark Stimson. Visiting forward Mick Quinn thought he'd halved the deficit early in the second half, only for his close-range effort to be ruled out by an offside flag. After the hosts scored again, Pompey old boy Quinn legitimately netted but the wet pitch saw him slide into the goal frame. He limped off leaving United with nine men, both away substitutes having been used - one just seconds earlier. There was no further scoring, a promotion chasing Portsmouth side managed by former Magpies boss Jim Smith taking pity on their luckless visitors.

Youtube footage is online here 2002 West Bromwich Albion (h) 2-1 (1-1) Premiership P8, 13pts, 6th/20 Shearer(45,69) Balis(26) 52,142 Two minor classics from the Shearer canon won it: a fierce drive from a free kick in the Baggies box and then sweeping the ball home after Gary Speed's centre was headed back across goal by Nobby Solano. NUFC.com match report PL highlights are online here  2005 Newcastle's second string broke new ground with a maiden appearance at the Robin Park home of Wigan Athletic reserves. Trailing at the break, United scraped a point four minutes after the restart when Shola Ameobi was fouled in the area and Michael Chopra slotted in the penalty. Tommy Craig's side ended the game with ten men after Darryl Smylie picked up his second booking a minute from time. NUFC.com match report 2008 Everton (a) 2-2 (1-2) Premier League P7, 5pts, 18th/20 Taylor(45), Duff(47) Arteta(17pen), Fellaini(35) 33,805 Steven Taylor inspired an unlikely comeback at Goodison by scoring one and making the other as United came from two goals down to halt a run of four league losses. And Joe Kinnear must take some credit for another C-word half-time rant that inspired his beleaguered troops. But this time the C-word was confidence. NUFC.com match report PL highlights are online here 2009 The Times reported that would-be new owner, Barry Moat, had finally made a substantial formal offer for the club and that it was being considered by Mike Ashley & Co. Ashley now had to decide whether to cut his losses or hold out in the hope that an instant top-flight return would effectively double the paper value. He gambled on the latter. 2010 Newcastle Reserves drew 0-0 in a league game with Aston Villa at Darsley Park, Danny Simpson and Danny Guthrie both making successful comebacks from injury. Also gracing us with their presence were Alan Smith and Xisco - the former in midfield and the latter nowhere in particular... NUFC.com match report 2013 Cardiff City (a) 2-1 (2-0) Premier League P7, 10pts, 11th/20 Remy(30,38) Odemwingie(58) 27,538 Loic Remy scored twice in a game United dominated and could have scored more, as Yohan Cabaye hit the post, Papiss Cisse was twice denied and a blatant handball in the box wasn't seen by referee Kevin Friend. Peter Odemwingie's first City goal led to some nervy moments late on but anything other than three points would have been a travesty. NUFC.com match report PL highlights are online here 2021 Two first half goals gave Harrogate Town victory over United's U21s, in the first-ever competitive meeting of the two clubs at a chilly Wetherby Road. A second EFL Trophy defeat in as many games confirmed elimination for the Magpies with one tie still to play - this their ninth successive reverse in the competition. NUFC.com match report  2024 Everton (a) 0-0 (0-0) Premier League P7, 12pts, 6th/20 39,265 Jordan Pickford's 35th minute penalty save denied former Toffee Anthony Gordon a goal on what was Newcastle's final-ever visit to Goodison Park.

The Brazilian captain opened the scoring with a superb strike before winning the penalty kick that Nick Woltemade memorably fired past old boy Matz Sels.
