Bristol City (a) update
Tickets for
United's pre-season visit to Ashton Gate on Wednesday July 29th are
once again on sale to season ticket holders with a loyalty point
requirement of zero.
Following the original 24 hour window for season ticket holders
to apply, tickets were then offered to members - after which ST
holders were given another opportunity.
Around 250 places from United's 3,407 allocation in the Atyeo
Stand remained unsold on Friday evening.
NUFC confirm that the away ticket transfer system won't operate for
Bristol City and loyalty points will be awarded.
Update:
UEFA publish NUFC settlement details
Following Newcastle's publicised
breach of UEFA's own financial sustainability regulations, further
details of the settlement reached are now in the public domain
here
Update:
Academy arrival claimed
News outlets in Spain reported on Friday that Newcastle had
completed the signing of 19 year-old forward Afner Ca
following his release by Spanish side Levante.
The Guinea-Bissau youth international spent last season playing for
Levante's U19 side, having moved there from Portuguese club Amora
last summer.
A five year deal is claimed for Ca, whose recruitment is part of the
club's attempts to boost their U21 side.
2026/27:
Darlington (h)
Newcastle's first team continue their
first week of pre-season training at their KNOX training ground,
ahead of Saturday's first friendly against Darlington.
In addition to recent signings Sean Steur and Ewen Jaouen, Eddie
Howe also welcomed back Fabian Schar, Lewis Miley and Tino
Livramento following injury. Friday then saw the club release
footage of Anthony Elanga in training.
Saturday sees the Magpies face Darlington behind closed doors at the former Darsley
Park, with several development squad players in line to feature.
They include Leo Shahar, Sean Neave, Miodrag Pivas, Aidan Harris, Park Seung-soo, Dylan Charlton, Matheos Ferreria,
Anthony Munda and Trevan Sanusi - the latter after an injury-afflicted season on loan at French side Lorient.
Yet to return after their post-season exertions are Dan Burn, Bruno Guimaraes, Malick Thiaw, Yoane Wissa, Nick
Woltemade and new boy Bazoumana Toure.
Steve Watson's Darlo are preparing for another season in National
League North, beating Redcar Athletic 4-0 and Stockton 3-1 in their
opening two friendly fixtures.
The Quakers squad includes former Magpie duo Ellis Stanton and Dylan
Stephenson.
PS: The Darlington friendly isn't televised by NUFC.

WC:
Burn out
Newcastle's final
representative at the World Cup Finals bowed out at the semi-final
stage on Wednesday*, as England and Dan Burn lost 1-2 to Argentina
in Atlanta.
Leading through Anthony Gordon's 55th minute strike, Thomas
Tuchel introduced the Magpie defender on 82 minutes as he attempted
to stonewall for a 1-0 win.
That backfired however, Lionel Messi's lot netting twice in the
closing stages and Burn finishing the tie pushed into a forward role
in a desperate attempt to force extra time.
A trio of SJP old boys also featured for England: Gordon and Elliot
Anderson both starting and Ivan Toney making his tournament bow as a
late replacement.
* England will face France in the 3rd/4th place play-off game in
Miami on Saturday at 10pm BST (on bbc1).
Update:
Reserve departure
Midfielder Joe White's eight
years as a Magpie have ended, with confirmation of a permanent
transfer to League Two side Crewe Alexandra.
The 23 year-old native of Carlisle first featured at senior level
for Newcastle ahead of the 2021/22 season, before making a loan
switch to Hartlepool United.
Further temporary departures took him to Exeter City and Crewe ahead
of a competitive Toon bow in February 2024, making the first of four
substitute appearances totalling 12 minutes against Bournemouth in
the Premier League.
More loans then saw Joe appear for MK Dons, Leyton Orient and
Bradford City. His final outing for Newcastle came during the
pre-season defeat at Celtic last July.
Update:
Manzambi a Villan
Freiburg midfielder Johan Manzambi
became an Aston Villa player on Friday, having opted to join them
rather than Newcastle after Switzerland's exit from the World Cup.
Update:
Bruno: radio silence
Over a week after interest from Bruno Guimaraes in leaving
the club to join Arsenal was reported, there have no public
developments over the status of Newcastle's captain.
Claims of a
verbal agreement over personal terms for the 28 year-old were made
at the time, but are yet to be followed by any reported bid.
Update:
Pro deals confirmed
Update: The Magpies have confirmed further professional contracts
for development squad players, with 18 year-old quartet Guy
Bloomer, Jake Durrant, Henry Johnson and Kacey Wooster
all now signed up.
Right back Bloomer, central defender Johnson and forward Wooster all
progressed from the U18 side to the U21s last season, with left back
Durrant about to follow suit.
Earlier:
Inking their first professional deals at Newcastle are 17 year-olds Sam Alabi and Mason Miley, both of
whom were blooded at U21 level by United last season.
Alabi was acquired from Oldham Athletic ahead of the
2023/24 season and given a first
taste of U18 football at home to Blackburn Rovers the
following April.
Debuting for the U21s at Harrogate Town in an EFL
Trophy tie in November 2025, England U17 captain Sam was an unused
first team substitute in the Champions League at Marseille
and Premier League at Old Trafford soon after.
The younger brother of Jamie and Lewis, fellow
midfielder Mason followed his siblings through the academy ranks at
United, making his U18 bow in August 2024 against Boro.
Miley's first U21 outing then came in a PL International Cup tie
against Croatia Zagreb during December 2025.
2026/27:

Sun 16.08.2026 Strasbourg (4pm)
Games are billed as the
VisitMalta Weekender 2026,
with a kickabout between NUFC Women and Inter Milan at 1pm on Sunday
before the Strasbourg men's game.
Tickets are on public sale now.
Prices:

While a visit from the Bundesliga side the Magpies faced in last
season's Champions League was already known, the participation of
the French side has just been confirmed.
Strasbourg have appointed Hugo Oliviera as head coach after
Gary O'Neill left to manage Ipswich Town.
Portuguese-born, the 47 year-old is no stranger to SJP, having
previously assisted Marco Silva when he was in charge of Fulham,
Everton, Hull City and Watford.

2026/27:
TV times
The Premier League have published their revised fixture schedule for live TV
covering August and September, with
Newcastle's opening four games all altered:
Sun 23.08.2026 Liverpool (h) 4.30pm Sky
Sat 29.08.2026 Spurs (a) 5.30pm Sky
Sat 05.09.2026 Bournemouth (h) 12.30pm TNT
Mon 14.09.2026 Leeds United (a) 8pm Sky*
Sat 19.09.2026 Hull City (h) 3pm no live UK TV
* if NUFC or LUFC are in the Carabao Cup Third Round and drawn
against a club in the Champions League (Arsenal, Aston Villa,
Liverpool, Manchester City or Manchester United), this game will be
on Sat 12.09.2026 @ 12.30pm.
Assuming both sides survive the Second Round, a final decision on
the PL game will rest on the Third Round draw, which takes place on
or around Tue 25.08.2026.
The possible move is because Carabao Cup Third round ties are once
again split over two weeks, the first clashing with Matchday 1 in
the Champions League Group stage.
PS: Although trains are scheduled to run as usual between Newcastle
and London on the day of the Spurs away game, Kings Cross station
will be closed the following day.
Update:
Mike Larnach RIP
The death of former Magpie Mike
Larnach has been announced, at the age of 73.
The striker began his career with Campsie Black Watch and East
Stirlingshire, joining Clydebank in 1972 and netting 29 times as
they won the Scottish First Division title in 1976.
Newcastle made a £100K bid in late 1977, boss Bill McGarry looking
to cure his side's goalscoring problems by recruiting Larnach and
Mark McGhee from Greenock Morton.
Mike debuted in a 0-2 home loss to
Liverpool on the last day of 1977, failing to find the net in his 14
appearances and returning to Scotland following Newcastle's
relegation to Division Two, Motherwell paying £75K for his services.
Later playing for Ayr United and
Stenhousemuir, Larnach rejoined Cyldebank and complete a century of
goals. He also worked in the engineering industry at Grangemouth.
U21s:
Moors v Mags
National League North side Spennymoor Town are to host Newcastle U21s in pre-season,
with the Magpies visiting Brewery
Field on Thursday July 30th at 7pm.
Admission for that game is £10 adults, £5 over 60s/U18s, with
advance sales from STFC
here or pay at the gate.
The game comes ahead of United U21s staging a training camp at
the Pinatar Arena in Spain, after which Robbie Stockdale's side
visit St. Mirren for a behind closed doors fixture on
Wednesday August 12th at 12.30pm.

ST holders have 24
hours to apply for away tickets, 24 hours to determine success, then 48 hours to
buy.
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.
Regardless of the loyalty point level a game sells out at, to purchase a
ticket you must have applied in the initial 24 hour window.
The initial 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 usually get two hours head start.
NB: emails from NUFC confirming success may arrive after the purchase
window opens - if you think you qualify due to your points total, log
on and complete your purchase.
Tickets not bought by successful applicants are then offered to unsuccessful applicants with a
reduced loyalty points total - new applications cannot be made at this time.
Only those within the new loyalty point total are
eligible to buy - even if you had more, your purchase window has already
closed.
PL away ticket prices are unchanged at £30 for both the 2026/27
and 2027/28 seasons.

On This Day in History |

17th July |

Born Or Died:
1937 Alan Hopper born, Newcastle.
(1959-60)
Full back who appeared at reserve level for United but failed to make it
through to the first team before leaving SJP.
Signing for South Shields before switching to Barnsley in 1961, Alan made over 130 appearances during four years
at Oakwell.
After a brief stint with Bradford City in the 1965/66 season, he hung up
his boots.
In later years he was a regular player at Rothbury Golf Club.
1959 Victor Nogueira born, Maputo, Mozambique. (1978)
 Newcastle
took this goalkeeper on trial from South African side Rangers in July 1978 as
cover for first-choice Kevin Carr; with Mick Mahoney on the transfer list and
Steve Hardwick on loan to a club in the USA.
Featuring in the club's pre-season tour of Sweden, Victor then took a back seat
after Manager Bill McGarry recalled Mahoney for the remainder of the friendly
matches.
An unused substitute in a kickabout at Arbroath, Nogueira then left Tyneside
and subsequently found his way to the USA.
He'd then enjoy a lengthy career playing both indoor and outdoor variants of
the game for Atlanta Chiefs, Montreal Manic, Chicago Sting, Cleveland Force,
San Diego Sockers and Milwaukee Wave.
Playing for a total of 25 years until his 45th birthday, Victor subsequently
coached various clubs including Concordia Eagles University at Irvine,
California.

What Else?
|
1998 United took
18 year-old Argentinean midfielder Luciano Filomeno on
trial from Nueva Chicago club in his homeland.
The Buenos-Aires born
player had made a scoring debut for Nueva's first team the
age of just 15 and was capped by his country at youth
international level.
Filomeno appeared in pre-season reserve fixtures at
Whitley Bay (where he scored), Scarborough and Spennymoor,
but wasn't offered a contract at United.
That then began a global tour of clubs that included
Udinese (Italy), Inter Milan (Italy),
San Lorenzo (Argentina) Jaguares de Chiapas (Mexico),
Busan (South Korea), DC United (USA) and then back to
Nueva Chicago.
Later moves saw Lucio join Greek sides Asteras Tripolis
and PAOK Salonika.
 1999
Helmond Sport
(Holland) (a)
2-1 (1-1)
Friendly
Andersson(25), Ketsbaia(90)
Griffin(30-violent conduct)
Vroomans(45)
A third match against Dutch minor league opposition
saw United don their all-white change kit and Andy Griffin
see red after a blockbuster challenge.
NUFC.com match
report
2000 Rumours were rife that
defender Steve Howey could leave United after eleven
years of service, with Aston Villa, Liverpool and the
mackems all credited with an interest. He would ultimately
join Manchester City.
2000 Midfielder Rob Lee was
reunited with his no.7 shirt when the
squad numbers were announced. He had initially been given
no.37 by caretaker boss Steve Clarke, after Ruud Gullit
handed his old shirt to Kieron Dyer -
infamously giving Lee no number at all.
Lee's subsequent autobiography was titled "Come
in number 37".
 2001
Newcastle Reserves began their season with a 4-1 friendly
win at Ashington.
Colin McMenamin scored twice and James Coppinger also put
a penalty wide, but went on to score United's
fourth - Richard Offiong getting the other on
his stiffs' debut.
Bobby Robson was present at
Portland Park and would have noted an impressive
performance from left back Olivier Bernard.

Two early goals set United on their way at

Michael Chopra finally scored his first senior goal for
the club, while Alan Shearer claimed the second but was
over-ruled by a UEFA official, who ruled the ball was

The Sam Allardyce era got underway on a sunny

New signings Joey Barton and David Rozehnal both
featured, while Michael Owen returned from injury
with his first Newcastle goal since December 2005 -
