The actual crowd was far in excess of the 40,000 who paid, and such was the crush that the players couldn't reach the dressing rooms at half time and had to remain on the pitch. 

Police horses were brought in to clear the playing surface while the match was in progress and one stampeded when hit by the ball, while another was supposedly stabbed by a spectator.

Debut for inside left Alan Kirkman, signed from Rotherham but who lasted just four months at SJP before joining Scunthorpe United.

He managed just five appearances for the Magpies, scoring once but finishing on the losing side four times.

Saints scorer George O'Brien had bagged two goals a week earlier at SJP in a 2-2 draw.

1963 Meanwhile in the Central League, those fans who hadn't made it down to the midweek game at The Dell saw Uniteds Reserve side beat their Huddersfield Town counterparts 1-0.

The only goal of the game came from Les O'Neill.

A tremendous game featuring two great goals from McGhee and the best club displays that Darren Bradshaw and Neil Simpson managed - even Wayne Fereday was tolerable, setting up one goal.

David Hirst and a late Steve McCall equaliser earned the Owls a point after veteran Trevor Francis had appeared as a substitute.

United welcomed back Peter Beardsley after his pre-season cheekbone injury, as a two goal lead and a saved penalty (Tommy Wright from ex-Mag Paul Bodin) just weren't enough to gain the win.  

The acrobatic goal celebration from Town's Andy Mutch featured on the opening titles of Grandstand for some months afterwards.

Potential banana skin was written all over this fixture for Souness and his Magpies as he made a first return to his former Ewood Park home.

Waiting for him were the Rovers fans who had turned on him and a Craig Bellamy, now  a Rover after clashing with Souness the previous season and being exiled to Celtic. 

In the end, it was a dejected Bellamy who left the field after a nightmare home debut -  after Alan Shearer ended his Premiership goal drought and Michael Owen got his first in a black & white shirt. 

Steven Taylor's second yellow card for the slightest tug on Bellamy made it a nervy last 18 minutes until Charles N'Zogbia's expert finish late on sealed the victory.

2006 An amazing night for the Reserves, who preserved their 16-month unbeaten home record - despite giving opponents Manchester City a three goal start.

Within 26 minutes fortress Kingston Park had been well and truly breached, as City raced into a 3-0 lead.

Carl Finnigan got one back before the break, but 83 minutes had gone before the same player pulled the score back to 2-3.

Paul Huntington then stole in to hit a first time shot that ended up in the goal via visiting 'keeper Hart, before fellow defender 
David Edgar swept home a late winner.

2007 Having seen his senior side lose their unbeaten record the previous evening, Sam Allardyce was at SJP to see his second string similarly beaten.

A more experienced Boro side scored a goal in the closing stages of both halves to maintain their own good start to the season.

After the desperately disappointing home loss to Blackpool, Newcastle bounced back in style to earn their second league win of the season, thanks to a fine team display and a wonderful goal from Hatem Ben Arfa. 

The on-loan Frenchman hit a stunning left-footed shot near the end of the first half to give United a first victory in eight games at Goodison Park and extend a winless start to the season for the Toffees.

2017 United's U23s maintained their good start to the season after a scoreless draw against Brighton at Crawley Town's Broadfield Stadium.

Newcastle reached half time level thanks to the efforts of ex-Crawley loan 'keeper Freddie Woodman, who made no less than five notable stops to deny the Seagulls.
