Newcastle's Premier League visit to Crystal Palace has been
rearranged for Wednesday
April 24th. Kick-off is 8pm and it's not on live UK TV.
Confirmation also that the PL home game against Sheffield United
wasn't selected for transmission. That remains a 3pm KO on Saturday

side will be in FA Cup action at Wembley.
Update:
More Metro disruption
In addition to the city centre Metro closure between March 29th and
April 4th (see West Ham preview for further details), a further
major outage on the system will take place later in April as
follows:
Buses will replace trains between Benton and North Shields in both directions for
seven days from Monday 8 April to Sunday 14
April,
while over 5.6km of overhead
power lines are replaced.
Trains will be running
frequently to all other stations but may not be to the usual
timetable.
The replacement bus service
number 900, will run between Four Lane Ends and North Shields in
both directions.
You may find it easier to transfer between Metro and the replacement
bus service at Four Lane Ends rather than Benton, as Four Lane Ends
is an interchange station.
Train services between Four Lane Ends and North Shields will resume
on Monday 15 April.

Latest:
Botman bombshell
From NUFC, Wednesday, here we
go again....
Newcastle United defender Sven Botman will undergo surgery
next week after suffering a knee injury against Manchester City.
Following further assessment, a
scan has confirmed that he sustained an injury to his ACL during
Saturday's match and he is expected to return to action within
six-to-nine months.
The Dutch centre-back initially
sustained a knee injury in September 2023 and elected for a
non-surgical rehabilitation plan - a decision which saw him return
to action in December.
The 24 year-old completed the entirety of the 8-0 victory at
Sheffield United last September but then missed the home Carabao Cup
win over Manchester City what was termed "a knock".
It later transpired that Botman's injury had come during the
Brentford game and he'd completed that, the 0-0 draw away to AC
Milan and the victory at Bramall Lane before realising the extent of
it.
Ahead of the following weekend's PL visit of Burnley to Gallowgate,
Howe told reporters that his absence would span the October
international break.
Subsequent comments from Botman however suggest that was either
ill-informed or disingenuous and he missed a total of 17 league and
cup fixtures before returning at home to Fulham in mid-December.
Since then he's appeared in all but one of United's games in all
competitions but struggled to recreate his previous form and looked
anything but comfortable recently.
Although the wording of the NUFC statement suggests that the latest injury
isn't the original September one, confirmation of this latest injury
blow has triggered fresh speculation regarding the club's medical
staff.
Speaking to Sky Sports at the turn of the year, Botman
commented:
"Some
people (specialists) said it was a total rupture, others said
that it wasn’t, so I’ve done everything to rest & avoid
surgery.
"The operation would’ve kept me out for nine months but I’m
back & feeling like my old self again — so it seems like I
made the right choice."
Whether that choice should have been the player's will inevitably
now come under renewed scrutiny.
Fielding his "best XI" has eluded Eddie Howe for most of
this season and even though it's still five months away, he now
knows that neither Botman or Sandro Tonali will feature on opening
day next time round.
And that figure could yet rise to three, depending on whether
Alexander Isak does undergo surgery to rectify a groin issue as has
been rumoured.
PS: News of Botman's absence will presumably mean that efforts to
conclude a deal for Bournemouth's left-sided central defender Lloyd
Kelly intensify - although he himself has missed the last five games
due to an as-yet unspecified leg problem.

Newcastle have confirmed two post-season games in Australia, both to
be staged in Melbourne as part of their Global Football Week.
United will face fellow Premier League side Spurs at the 95,000 seat
Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Wednesday May 22nd at
7.45pm (local time).
On Friday May 24th they'll be in action at the 53,000
capacity Marvel Stadium against the A-League All Star Men. That's a
5.15pm kick-off and will be followed by a game between the A-League
All Star Women and Arsenal Women at 8.05pm.

2023/24:
Meet
the A-Team
While Spurs need no introduction,
Newcastle's second opponents in Australia are rather less
well-known.
As their name suggests, the A-League All Stars are selected
from the playing squads of clubs currently playing in the premier
Australian and New Zealand domestic competition, regardless of
nationality.
They will assemble to face the Magpies for only the fourth time
since first taking to the field in 2013:
2013 Man United (h) (Sydney) lost 1-5 83,127
2014 Juventus (h) (Sydney) lost 2-3 55,364
2022 Barcelona (h) (Sydney) lost 2-3 70,174
Current Magpie Garang Kuol (then of Central Coast Mariners) was a
second half substitute in the 2022 game, catching the eye and
gaining his first senior professional contract soon after. He's on
the left of the picture above.
SJP old boy Curtis Good (Melbourne City) was in the initial 30 man
selection to face Barcelona, but wasn't one of the 20 players who
got any pitch time.
As was the case in 2022 however, the All Stars won't be able to call
upon players from clubs competing in the A-League Grand Final that
weekend.
The first two A-League games were played in the pre-season period,
avoiding a similar clash.

1893 Nottingham Forest
(h)
4-1 (3-0)
Friendly
Sorley(3,4-1pen), Reay(2-0,3-0)
Pike(3-1)
3,000
Ahead of their debut in Division Two the following
season, United claimed the scalp of top-flight Forest,
who fielded a clutch of current internationals.
Team:
McCabe, Jeffery, Miller, Creilly, Graham, McKane, Reay,
Crate, Sorley, Wallace, Collins.
1893
United's "A" team were also in friendly action, facing
their wearside counterparts at the Newcastle Road ground
in Monkwearmouth.
The game finished 2-2, Batey and Dixon on target for the
visitors - the home side aggrieved at the decision
of referee J.Conqueror to disallow a late effort for
offside.
Newcastle played in red shirts, "giving them the
appearance of flamingos" in the eyes of The Journal's
reporter.
Team:
G.Ryder, Rodger, Crichton, Fitzgerald, Wylde, J.Ryder,
Stokoe, Gardiner, Batey, Dixon, Quinn.
1899 Derby County (h)
2-0 (1-0)
Division One
P29, 26pts, 15th/18
Stevenson(25), Reid(67)
14,000
Goal on his debut for Billy Reid, who didn't add to
his tally during a four match loan period and returned to
Scotland.
The win relieved the threat of relegation,
Bolton Wanderers and Sheffield Wednesday now seemingly
doomed.
1905 Sheffield Wednesday (n)
1-0 (1-0)
FA Cup Semi Final
Howie(20)
40,000
United qualified for their very first FA Cup
Final despite missing broken collar bone victim
Ronald Orr.
The tie was played at the Hyde Road home of Manchester
City and Newcastle wore white shirts.
1910 Woolwich Arsenal (h)
1-1 (0-1)
Division One
P31, 38pts, 2nd/20
Finlay(90)
Lewis(20)
20,000
24 hours before their FA Cup Semi-Final tie against
Swindon Town, a much-changed Magpies side were in league
action.
Albert Shepherd was reportedly barracked by home followers
when he left the pitch before full time. Jock Finlay's
late goal then saved a point.
1911 Chelsea (n)
3-0 (2-0)
FA Cup Semi Final
Wilson(7), Shepherd(33), Stewart(61)
40,000
A fifth successive
semi-final appearance for Newcastle saw them win
convincingly at the St. Andrews home of Birmingham.
Driving snow gave way to bright sunshine by kick-off and
United pressed forward from the first whistle, George
Wilson on target after Albert Shepherd and Sandy Higgins
had been denied.
Shepherd then doubled the lead with a fine strike and
when his shot struck the post in the second half, Jimmy
Stewart was on hand to fire home the rebound.
1921 Oldham Athletic (h)
1-2 (0-1)
Division One
P33, 41pts, 3rd/22
Curry(67)
J.H.Marshall(11), Campbell(65)
32,000
A Good Friday
shock for United as the Latics won their first game on the
road since the opening day of the season. It was only
the third home defeat of the campaign for the Magpies.
1922 Oldham Athletic (a)
0-0 (0-0)
Division One
P34, 37pts, 7th/22
15,600

United twice came from behind to claim victory in what
was their first home game since qualifying for the FA
Cup Final.

2-1 (2-0)
Division One
P33, 42pts, 4th/22
Weaver(7pen),
Boyd(33)
Hulme(56)
51,215
A seventh successive home league win was enough to
beat the Gunners, but they would hang on to top spot until
the end of the season and claim their second title.
 1939
Blackburn Rovers (h)
2-2 (2-2)
Division Two
P36, 42pts, 2nd/22
Scott(2), Clifton(6)
Weddle(19), Rogers(44)
40,237
Inside forward Harry Clifton grabbed his third goal in
as many games, but United had to be content with a point
from all three contests.
 1950
Bolton Wanderers (h)
3-1 (1-1)
Division One
P33, 36pts,
9th/22
Mitchell(15), Houghton(67),
Taylor(87)
Moir(4)
33,752
The battles between Magpies defender Frank Brennan and Trotters attacker Nat
Lofthouse would form the bedrock of this hard-fought home victory.
Ernie Taylor's late clinching goal was the result of a memorable passing move
involving Bobby Corbett, Bobby Mitchell, Taylor and Frank Houghton.
 1953 Airdrie (Scotland)
(h)
5-1 (3-1)
Friendly
Davies(4,59), Hannah(13), Foulkes(42), G.Robledo(5-1)
Lennox(16)
38,800
This midweek kickabout under the SJP floodlights reportedly came about as
part of the transfer that brought Frank Brennan from Broomfield seven years
earlier!
Team: Simpson, Cowell, McMichael, Stokoe, Brennan, Casey, Foulkes, Hannah,
Davies, G.Robledo, Mitchell.
 1960 Everton (a)

Division One
P35, 39pts,

White(42)
Collins(22)

Newcastle's visit to Goodison Park was on a Friday evening to avoid clashing
with the Grand National at nearby Aintree the following afternoon.
It proved to be something of a smash and grab raid, with the visitors twice
scoring excellent goals from rare attacks, while the hosts dominated proceedings
but wasted countless chances.
 1961
Chelsea (h)
1-6 (0-0)
Division One
P35, 26pts, 20th/22
Neale(86)
Tindall(54,61), Greaves(57,68,75,80)
28,975
A Saturday 6.30pm slot for this game was found in
order to avoid clashing with the Grand National, which was
live on TV.
Having marked his debut with a penalty save at Spurs in
midweek, a SJP bow for goalkeeper Dave Hollins proved to
be memorable for rather different reasons.
A knee injury to United's Dick Keith forced him off at the
start of the second half and although he later returned,
he played no active part in the game.
Jimmy Greaves was tormentor-in-chief, scoring
four and having one chalked off.
Magpies boss Charlie Mitten commented post-match that: "If
Jimmy Greaves had been on our side we would have won by as
big a score. He's the most devastating finisher in the
game - a wonderful player."
 1967
Chelsea (a)
1-2 (1-2)
Division One
P34, 24pts,
20th/22
Noble(9)
Baldwin(21),
Tambling(31)
26,388
Peter Noble was on target for United in this Easter Saturday fixture,
having netted twice in a 3-1 home win over Stoke City just 24 hours earlier.
However some poor defending and sloppy finishing saw the Magpies pass up the
chance to register a first victory at Stamford Bridge since 1954.
1972 Manchester City (h) 0-0 (0-0)
Division One
P34, 33pts,
11th/22
37,506
Despite a brilliant display from Tony Green, United provied unable to make
the vital breakthrough - notably a Malcolm Macdonald header that beat goalkeeper
Ron Healey but was cleared off the line by Alan Oakes.
 1975 Liverpool (a)
0-4 (0-2)
Division One
P35, 34pts,
14th/22
Keegan(7),
Toshack(43,70), McDermott(72)
41,147
Bob Paisley's Reds gained ample revenge for their 1-4 loss on Tyneside a
month earlier, Kevin Keegan and Terry McDermott among the goalscorers and
visiting custodian Ray Clemence never having a shot to
save.
 1978 Nottingham Forest (a) 0-2 (0-1)
Division One
P32, 18pts,
21st/22
Robertson(33pen),
Anderson(68)
35,552
A damp day by the Trent, with Mick Mahoney having a
hand in Forest's second Archie Gemmill's effort bounced down off the
bar for John O'Hare to head goalwards, the United 'keeper diving over it
to let in Viv Anderson for the simplest of finishes.

Division One
P31, 27pts, 22nd/22
Goddard(75)
Hoddle(9)
30,782
Another goal for Paul Goddard who was to almost
single-handedly keep Newcastle in Division One,
scoring in this and the next six matches.
United remained
bottom of the league, a point behind Aston Villa but
with two games in hand.

The title-chasing Canaries suffered as Mirandinha
found form at the venue that hosted his United
debut.

1992
A 2-0 win over Manchester United reserves at
Gallowgate was achieved thanks to a
brace from Andy Hunt.
The hosts fielded 23 year-old Ivory Coast international defender Diaby Sekana
on trial from French side Brest.

Shearer(67)
Camara(51), Redknapp(88)

Another last minute defeat at Anfield;
Jamie Redknapp returning from injury to head in the winner.
Titi Camara had put the Reds ahead before a header from
Alan Shearer levelled things. Kieron Dyer then hit the post before
the all-too-familiar Anfield climax.

2002 Michael Chopra scored a hat-trick for the
Reserves as Bradford City were humped 5-0 at Kingston

time.

Shearer(46,89),
Bellamy(78)

The
rain in Spain fell mainly on the Toon, as a travelling
army encountered damp and chilly conditions in Palma.
Two goals for Alan Shearer and another for Craig Bellamy
(who celebrated in isolation) put us into the
Quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup. Sir Bobby's old club, PSV
awaited.
With the result and qualification
secured, United handed a debut to defender Steven Taylor
as a late substitute.

Long(52)

A memorable first half
display blew the Baggies away, as United continued their
push towards a place in the Europa League.
Losing Fabricio Coloccini at half-time almost sent Alan
Pardew's side into a downward spin and their lead looked
slightly fragile when Shane Long got one back for the
Baggies.
But thanks to fine rearguard performances from the rapidly
improving James Perch and the gutsy Jonas Gutierrez,
United held firm.

A deserved Tuesday
night home thumping, as United looked to have used up all
of their good fortune with a single goal success over
Crystal Palace three days earlier.

match report
2023 Ex-Magpie Joselu enjoyed a memorable
senior international debut for Spain, just two days short
of his 33rd birthday.
Having enjoyed a prolific spell in front of goal for his
current club Espanyol, the striker was called up for a
Euro 2024 qualifier against Norway in Malaga, appearing
from the bench with 81 minutes played and his side 1-0 up.
Just five minutes later that was 3-0 - and Joselu had two
goals to his name.
