staged
tonight
From UEFA:
The league phase draw for the Champions
League takes place on Thursday August 28th at 6pm CET (5pm
BST).
36 participating teams will be split into
four pots based on their individual coefficient ranking with the
UEFA Champions League titleholder the top seed in Pot 1.
Starting with Pot 1, one physical ball will be drawn before the
automated software draws eight opponents for them, taking into
account the following principles:
Two teams from each of the four pots,
with one home and one away match against teams from each pot drawn
by the software.
No teams from the same association can face each other and no more
than two opponents from the same association can be drawn in the
same group.
The same procedure will be repeated for all other teams until all
pairings have been drawn.
The CL fixture list with match dates and
kick-off times will be communicated no later than Saturday 30
August.

Bantams in Toon
Newcastle begin the defence of their Carabao Cup title with a Third Round
home tie against League One Bradford City.
Third Round ties will be played across two consecutive midweeks (w/c
September 15th and w/c September 22nd).
The Magpies are in Champions League action during the first of those weeks,
meaning that their Carabao Cup tie will be played on or around
September 23rd or 24th.
That falls between the Premier League visit to Bournemouth and home meeting
against Arsenal.
Season ticket holders who signed up for the Carabao Cup home ticket scheme
will be charged £20 and £25 depending on their seating area. Payment will be
taken within seven days of the fixture date confirmation.
Graham Alexander's side reached the Third Round thanks to a 2-1 victory at
Blackburn Rovers and a 3-0 success at fellow Championship side Stoke City.
The Bantams currently sit fourth in League One, with three wins and two
draws from their opening five EFL fixtures.
This is the fourth time that the two sides have been paired in this
competition, the most recent meeting a 4-3 Third Round victory at Gallowgate
for Newcastle in 2000.
The Magpies lost a two-legged tie in the 1986/87 season - beaten 0-2 at
Odsal and winning 1-0 at SJP but got the better of Bradford in 1984/85,
following up a 3-1 victory on Tyneside with a 1-0 success at Valley Parade.
Latest:
JSL: deal now close
Latest: A further bid of £55m for
Jorgen Strand Larsen was made by Newcastle and
rejected late on Tuesday, but it now appears that agreement is set
to be reached on a fee for the Wolves centre forward - more to
follow....
Earlier: Following widespread reports of an unsuccessful bid in the region
of £50m from Newcastle, Larsen came off
the bench to net a quick-fire brace for his current club Wolves in
the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.
The 25 year-old Norwegian international scored twice in three
minutes to turn a 1-2 deficit into a 3-2 advantage against West Ham
at Molineux - his first goals since the season-long loan deal that
brought him from Celta Vigo during July 2024 became permanent at a
cost of £26m.
Asked about Larsen's future following the victory, Wolves boss Vitor
Pereira simply said, "I don't know, I'm not the owner."
Elsewhere on Tuesday night, there was no sign of Yoane Wissa as Brentford made it to the Third Round of the Carabao Cup after
winning 2-0 at Bournemouth.
The transfer window closes at 7pm on Monday.
Update:
Saturday: Star v Stan
For anyone not heading to Elland Road, there's a spicy-looking FA
Cup clash on Tyneside between Newcastle Blue Star and
Heaton Stannington this Saturday.
It's a 3pm kick-off at the KD Stadium and tickets can be
bought
here now or at the gate, subject to availability.
Stadium postcode is NE15 7BD - street parking nearby.
Missing from the Star line-up will be former Magpie striker
Michael Ndiweni, who has landed a scholarship at Ohio State
University in the USA.
Update:

"I am very happy that Alexander Isak wants to be in the squad, he is a
huge player.
"The situation he is in is not perfect and he has not trained with the
team, but he is a player who can decide matches and he wants to be part
of our squad, the World Cup is important for Alexander Isak."

report
U21s:
U21 game relocated
Beaten in their opening two PL2 games on home territory, Newcastle
U21s will hope for a change of fortune on Friday, when they play
their first away fixture in that competition.
Their opponents are Birmingham City, with the game now rescheduled
and having a new venue and kick-off time.
Originally advertised as a 7pm kick-off at
Stratford Town FC, the fixture now goes ahead at City's training
ground in Kings Norton with a 2pm start time.
Formerly known as Wast Hills, that now rejoices in the title of the
Knighthead Performance Centre.
With incoming coach Adam Lawrence not due to take up his position
until next month, interim coach Robbie Stockdale will remain in
charge. He'll then move to assisting Lawrence.
Update:
U21 Coach appointed
From NUFC, Wednesday:
Newcastle United will appoint Adam Lawrence as the club's
new Under-21s Lead Coach on 1st September.
The 38-year-old will join the Magpies' Academy following his
departure from Manchester United, where he was Lead Coach for the
club's Under-18s side.
During his tenure, Lawrence led his Under-18s team to three
pieces of silverware in the 2023/24 campaign, winning the Premier
League regional and national titles as well as the Premier League
Cup.
Last season, Lawrence guided his side to second in the Premier
League North, while they narrowly missed out on reaching the FA
Youth Cup final after losing to eventual winners Aston Villa in the
semi-finals on penalties.
Alongside his role as Under-18s Lead Coach, Lawrence also held
the role of Head of Player Development (U13-U16), where he was
tasked with ensuring a smooth transition for players as they began
their scholarships.
Prior to joining Manchester United, Lawrence spent eight years
at Charlton Athletic's Academy, where he served as the club's Head
of Coaching, as well as working within Millwall's youth system.
He will be assisted by Robbie Stockdale, who has been in
interim charge of the Under-21s side since the departure of Diarmuid
O'Carroll.
Giveaway:
Compo winner
Restocked for the new
season is the Shearer bucket hat from Football Bobbles,
with the 1996/97 change kit colours on one side and black & white on
the reverse.
These are available to purchase
here in three sizes.
The Tyneside-based
company also has a brand-new range of bespoke T-shirts depicting the
life and times of Newcastle's 50s hero and FA Cup winner George
Robledo.
These are available to purchase
here in a bewildering variety of sizes and colours.
The prize in our latest competition was a Shearer
bucket hat or a Robledo T-shirt and to stand a chance of winning we
asked which former Magpie played for Liverpool the last time we won
a PL game against them in 2015.
It was of course James Milner and the winning entry came from
Peter Cowell.
Old
boys:
Ritchie a Royal
Ex-Magpie Matt Ritchie is on the move again barely a year after
leaving Tyneside, joing League One Reading on a two year deal
following his release by Portsmouth.
Fellow former midfielder Isaac Hayden meanwhile has completed a
permanent return to Championship side QPR after leaving
Gallowgate.

Matt finish confirmed
Newcastle have now
concluded a loan deal sending full back Matt Target to Boro for
the remainder of the season.
The 29 year-old was in the last year of his contract at SJP and hadn't
started a Premier League game for the Magpies since September 2023.
Targett made 47 senior competitive appearances since arriving on
loan from Aston Villa during January 2022. That loan became a permanent
switch ahead of the 2022/23 campaign at a claimed cost of £15m.
He's in line to make his Boro bow when they host Sheffield United in the
Championship this coming Saturday.

U18s:
Foxes fettled
Newcastle U18s 3 Leicester City U18s 2
It's now three wins out of three for Newcastle
U18s, who followed up back-to-back league victories with success in
their opening Premier League Cup tie on Tuesday.
Coach Chris Moore gave a debut to Isaac Moran following his arrival
from Liverpool and the black and whites led at half time thanks to
Sam Pinnington's
32nd minute shot.
City almost equalised
straight after the break when Alpha Diallo headed against the post before an emphatic finish from Alex
O'Donovan doubled the lead, hammering a shot home off the
underside of the bar in the 57th minute.
That prompted the visitors into a double switch that quickly boosted
their attacking threat and they reduced the arrears 10 minutes later
- the referee's assistant confirming that Lorenz Hutchinson's header
had crossed the line despite the claims of home 'keeper George Mair.
United's two goal lead was restored on 71 minutes when the ball was nodded
down for Mohammed Waddani to hook in from close range for his
second goal of the season.
Luqman Aideed's finish at the far post then made it 3-2 to United
with five minutes of normal time left, heralding a frantic finale
that was memorable for the wrong reasons.
A mass confrontation
near to United
corner flag following a foul ended with match officials and coaches
from both sides intervening to separate warring players.
Referee Stephen Beresford red-carded Foxes pair Diallo and David
Anugo, while two home players were cautioned.
United's Noel Morgan left on a stretcher with his left forearm strapped
up before the game belatedly restarted and the final seconds were
played before a second half that had been
extended to 61 minutes was concluded.
Team: Mair, Patterson, Morgan, Johnson, Moran (Old
46), Alabi, Pinnington (E.Ndiweni
75), Lucas, Wooster (Goodbrand
71), O'Donovan (Hutchison
71), Waddani.
Sub n/u: Holland.
Booked: Wooster, Alabi, Goodbrand, (Holland).
PS: Newcastle's U18 league home game against Leeds United this
Saturday (30th) has been switched and now takes place away at Thorp
Arch. Kick-off remains Noon.
The other meeting of two sides will now be staged on Tyneside in
January 2026.
Meltdown:
Isak timeline
Sun 04.05
Isak scored his 54th Premier League
goal (62nd in all competitions) for Newcastle - a penalty in a 1-1 draw at
Brighton.
Sun 18.05 Isak missed the 0-1 Premier League loss at Arsenal, Howe told
the media that he'd had a scan on a groin problem and rest rather than
surgery was forecast.
Sun 25.05 Isak played the entirety of a 0-1 Premier loss at home to
Everton, Newcastle's season-ending fixture.
Tue 27.05 Isak withdrew from Sweden's squad for two games in June due to
a minor injury, presumably groin.
Mon 14.07 Isak was part of the Newcastle party that flew to Austria for
a week-long training camp.
Tue 15.07 The Athletic reported that Liverpool had made it know they
were prepared to pay £120m for Isak.
Sat 19.07 Isak was absent as Newcastle faced Celtic; Eddie Howe told the
media that he'd allowed him to leave the squad as he needed "more
training time" but that he expected him to join the club's upcoming
tour of Asia.
Mon 21.07 Isak trained away from the rest of the squad at Darsley Park
but reportedly cut short the session.
(some sources claim this may have been on 22.07)
Tue 22.07 Newcastle reportedly switched targets to Brentford's Yoane
Wissa, to augment (or replace) Isak.
Wed 23.07 Liverpool completed the signing of Eintracht Frankfurt forward Hugo
Ekitike, a player Newcastle had attempted to sign to augment (or replace)
Isak.
Thu 24.07 Isak wasn't on the plane to Singapore and multiple media
outlets reported he'd "told Newcastle he wants to explore a move
away from the club".
The Times wrote that Isak refused to accept improved terms and an
extension to his current Newcastle contract, allegedly seeking £300k per
week - an amount the club wouldn't be able to meet given their financial
status.
Fri 25.07 The Guardian wrote that Isak had been offered a
basic weekly wage of £600K by Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia.
Sat 26.07 Howe met the media in Singapore and had no update on Isak's
thigh injury but called it minimal and was still confident that he would
remain a Newcastle player.
Sun 27.07 Newcastle lost 2-3 to Arsenal, Howe telling reporters there
was "no chance" Isak would be in Korea.
Mon 28.07 Newcastle arrived in Korea without Isak.
Tue 29.07 Howe told the media that no bid had been received for Isak
and he remained a Magpie.
Wed 30.07 Spanish media claimed that Isak was training alone in San
Sebastian.
Fri 01.08 Liverpool bid claimed to be £120m rejected.
Mon 04.08 Isak returns to Darsley Park but is made to train
separately from the rest of the senior squad.
Fri 08.08 Omitted from the squad for a home friendly against Espanyol,
Howe told the media Isak was fit but made him unavailable for selection. No
disciplinary action had been taken against him that he was aware of.
Sat 16.08 Isak wasn't involved in the Premier League season opener at
Aston Villa, with travelling supporters airing "one greedy bastard" chants
after full time.
Tue 19.08 Isak released a statement explaining his absence from the
PFA awards ceremony, which included this:
"The reality is that promises were made and the club has known my
position for a long time. To now act as if these issues are only emerging is
misleading."
Tue 19.08 NUFC released their own statement.

On This Day in History |
|
28th August |
|
Born Or Died:
1880
Jimmy Lindsay born, Stockton.
(1899-1900)
Full back who was a blacksmith by trade and began his career with Jarrow
before making the switch to United as an amateur - where elder brother Billy
was on professional terms.
Debuting in a 0-0 draw away to Glossop in April 1901, Jimmy kept his place for
a 2-2 home draw with Stoke City the following week but was never called upon
again.
Briefly moving on to Burnley, he would enjoy the longest and most successful
period of his playing career after joining Bury in 1901.
Playing for the Shakers for the following nine seasons, Jimmy was part of the
Bury side who hammered Derby County 6-0 in the 1903 FA Cup Final at the Crystal
Palace.
His death was reported in 1925.
1964 Death of Jimmy
Richardson, 53.
(1928-34 & 1937-38)
1994 Brandon Miele born, Dublin, Ireland.
(2010-14)
Central midfielder who joined United from the Cherry
Orchard club in his native Dublin and was capped
by the Republic of Ireland at youth international
level.
Debuting for Newcastle reserves in January 2011
against Manchester United, Brandon made five
appearances during the following season for the second
string.
Sixteen further reserve outings followed
in the 2012/13 season, netting against both Norwich City and Bolton Wanderers.
Miele was released towards the end of the 2013/14
campaign after only a handful of reserve outings, joining Leinster Senior
League side Bluebell United in Dublin.
January 2015 then saw him join his local side Shamrock
Rovers, playing alongside former Magpie Damien Duff
following his arrival in July of that year.
He joined Dublin rivals St. Patrick's Athletic in
December 2018 but in January 2020 Miele was banned
from football for two years, failing to provide a
sample following a game against Sligo Rovers in
April 2019.
Miele left the ground without providing a sample,
claiming he needed to be with his daughter who had
fallen and hit her head.
After the tribunal he said:
"While I do not regret my decision to prioritise
my daughter's health, I do regret that the effect
this has had. Ultimately, I have to take
responsibility for my actions that night but I do
feel that I was placed in an impossible position.
"I
believe that many people would have followed a
similar course."
2023 saw Brandon restart his career at Leinster Senior League side Newtown
Rangers in his native Dublin.

Division One
P1, 2pts, 8th/22
Gallacher(13,54,69,89)
36,000
Having scored all three goals in the final game of the
previous campaign, Hughie Gallacher went one better in
this season opener.
1933 Newcastle reserves played their first Central League
fixture, having gained admittance after several failed attempts.
They had a harsh baptism, beaten 0-4 by Derby County in front of 8,000
fans at the Baseball Ground.
The Rams' opener came from Byker-born Ossie Bowden, who had begun his
playing career with the Magpies.
 1937 Manchester United

Donaldson(7), Stobbart(64)
McIntosh(13,55), McLaren(32,42),
Finney(75)
63,549
Having begun life back in the top flight with two draws, the first
league meeting with Preston since 1939 could have produced even more
goals than the seven that were registered at Gallowgate.
Prominent for the visitors was Tom Finney, who had appeared for the
Magpies as a wartime guest player.
 1954 Sheffield United
(h)
1-2 (0-1)
Division One
P3, 4pts, 6th/22
R.Mitchell(71)

bump - although The Blades' goal frame was hit three
times.

Sheffield Wednesday (a) 0-1 (0-1)
Division One
P3, 1pt, 19th/22
Dobson(22)
23,391
Teessider Colin Dobson's goal for the Owls left
newly promoted United still looking for a first
win in Division One since April 1961.
There was a debut for Albert Bennett following his
arrival from Rotherham United but Alan Suddick missed what
The Journal reporter called "a soccer shambles."

December.

0-1 (0-0)
Division One
P5, 4pts, 15th/22
Blockley(56)
22,638
A fourth successive defeat at Highfield Road came soon after our third - the closing
game of the previous season.
1975 Another player departure caused by the abrasive Gordon Lee
saw Terry Hibbitt join Birmingham City. The transfer was
agreed within minutes
of the previous day's game at Derby.
1976
Bristol City (h)
0-0 (0-0)
Division One
P3, 4pts, 5th/22
31,775
With Alan Gowling and Micky Burns out
injured, United turned to Paul Cannell and John
Tudor. |

disagreements with manager Bill McGarry, midfielder John Connolly was handed a free transfer and
promptly returned to Scotland with Hibernian.
 1982
Queen's Park Rangers (h) 1-0
(0-0)
Division Two
P1, 3pts, 6th/22
Keegan(60)
36,185
A perfect day in the sun with the centre of attention
marking his debut with a second half
winner - which he later claimed the
crowd at the Gallowgate End (including a young Alan
Shearer) sucked in.
There were debuts also for Jeff Clarke and the
returning John Craggs, while Kevin Carr's pre -season
accident in Madeira resulted in the reappearance of Steve
Hardwick in goal.
Keegan was presented with a
Newcastle scarf on the pitch by a gentleman clad in only a
pair of fluorescent yellow socks as the house full signs
were posted.
Referee Trelford Mills
did nothing to provoke the SJP crowd this time, while
England boss Bobby Robson was full of post-match
platitudes when asked about KK - who he would drop from
his squad just days later.
If anyone was left in any doubt about the effect of
Keeganmania, QPR had won 4-0 at SJP barely three months
before, in front of less than 11,000 bored souls.

Following a 1-0 first leg win in Sarajevo, Newcastle cruised
into the Group Stages of the Champions League for the
second time in their history.
A late shot from Alan Shearer saw him register his 122nd
goal for the club - taking him one ahead of Malcolm
Macdonald in the all-time scorers list, fourth behind
Hughie Gallacher, Len White and Jackie Milburn.

Bobby Robson chose the same method as his predecessor to
bring to an end his time in charge at Newcastle - by
dropping Alan Shearer to the bench. And like with Ruud
Gullit, it almost worked, with United going 2-1 up after being behind early on.
But Bobby's luck ran out
with the score at 2-2. Craig Bellamy scampered in on goal
and when ex-mackem Tommy Sorensen came out, the 'keeper
handled outside of his box - an automatic red card but
incredibly referee Mike Riley only gave a yellow.
From then on, we
capitulated to a degree that was even extraordinary for Newcastle,
leaving fans bemused and frustrated.
Not many were calling for Sir
Bobby to get the chop but something had to give....

Debutant
Albert Luque showed some promise but missed two decent chances
and had another ruled out for offside but our plans were scuppered inside the first 37
minutes when Emre and Kieron Dyer limped off.
Rushed back ahead of schedule for this game, they both aggravated their
hamstring problems - another Souness masterstroke.
And when Lee Bowyer limped off, we were
reduced to fielding the creative non-entity that was Amdy Faye.

Conceding just before half-time, Barton
found Carroll's towering head from a free-kick and the big striker grabbed
his fourth goal in two games to salvage a point.

A second half
brace from Leon Best saw Newcastle extend their unbeaten start to four league and cup
games.
Playing their first league game since Joey Barton'S exit,
Alan Pardew benched Demba Ba and went with a forward pairing of Best
and Peter Lovenkrands.
Neither set the first half alight, but soon after the restart Best was
on hand to tip home Yohan Cabaye's shot when it came back
off the Gallowgate crossbar.
Ba then appeared as a substitute and eluded old boy Aaron Hughes with
the pass that set up Best for his and our second goal.

Sammy and Shola became the first brothers to score in a senior fixture for
