Newcastle transfer target Marc Guehi
completed 90 minutes for Crystal Palace in their 4-0 home win over Norwich City in the Carabao
Cup on Tuesday.
As to where the England international will be playing his football next
month, your guess is as good as ours...
U18s:
Magpies
fail
to tame Lions

Newcastle U18s 1 Millwall U18s 1
The U18s began their Premier
League Cup campaign by coming from behind to take a point from their
Millwall counterparts on Tuesday afternoon.
Neither side created anything of note at a damp Little Benton until the 22nd
minute, when the visitors went ahead through Elias Mansour - the midfielder's
shot from outside the box deflected past Adam Harrison.
There was almost an instant reply but Lions custodian Jakob Przewozny made a double stop to
deny Kacey Wooster and then Matheos Ferreira.
Millwall then squandered the opportunity to double their lead eight minutes
before the break, Harrison spreading himself to keep out Elidon O'Boyle's
effort.
Completing the opening 45 minutes for his club debut at this level was Rory
Finneran; the 16 year-old midfielder a close season acquisition from
Blackburn Rovers for a fee that will be reportedly determined by a tribunal.
United's pressure told when they drew level in the 59th minute; a deep cross from Jake Durrant on
the left met by Ferreira towards the back post, who fired home first time
in similar style to Anthony Gordon on Sunday.
There was no further scoring, despite ten minutes of added time during which
United committed increasing numbers forward to try and complete the
comeback.
Elsewhere on Tuesday, a 3-2 home win over Stoke City was enough to see
Chelsea top Group F. Newcastle's other two games in the group are away from
home.
Team: Ad.Harrison, Tika-Lemba (Bloomer 65), Durrant, Johnson (Craggs
46), Watts, Finneran (Taylor 46), Ferreira, Cogdon (Waddani 85), Wooster,
Neave, Brayson. Sub n/u: Jones.
Booked: Bloomer.
2024/25:
Nottingham Forest
(a)

United enter the
Carabao Cup in the Second Round on Wednesday at fellow
Premier League side Nottingham Forest - the third time in just eight
seasons that we've met them in this competition.
It's an 8pm kick-off live in the UK on Sky Sports and
a result must be achieved on the night - if the score is tied after 90
minutes a penalty shootout will ensue.
Anyone who purchased tickets but doesn't receive them in time needs to
telephone the NUFC box office (do not email) on 0344 372 1892 before
1pm on Wednesday.
That is necessary for them to be added to the list of duplicate tickets for
collection at the City Ground.
The duplicate collection windows are just to
the right of the away turnstiles and open at 6pm on Wednesday - valid photo
ID will be required for every ticket collected and each supporter needs to
collect their own.
Notts County have opened a fanzone for away fans going to the City Ground,
limited to the first 1,000 away ticket holders and open from 3.30pm. The
Nest is on Iremonger Road to the west of Meadow Lane.
Following Newcastle's 3-2 win there in February and the upcoming league
visit in November, this tie means that we're set to visit the City Ground
three times in 2024.
The winners will take their place in the Third Round draw (date tbc) with ties split over two
midweeks in the weeks commencing September 16th and 23rd.
The dubious rationale for that decision now appears on the EFL website online
here
Team: Sven Botman, Jamaal Lascelles,
Callum Wilson and Lewis Miley all remain out while Fabian Schar serves the second game of his three game suspension
for a red card against Southampton.
The scheduling of this tie on Wednesday means that Sandro Tonali will
be available for selection, after his ten month ban ended at Midnight on
Tuesday.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Eddie Howe confirmed that the
midfielder would play some part..

Unlikely
lads:
Gunners get old boy
Tuesday saw former Newcastle
midfielder Mikel Merino complete a £31m move from Real Sociedad to
Arsenal.
The 28 year-old Spanish international spent the 2017/18 season at Gallowgate,
initially joining on loan from Borussia Dortmund before making a permanent
switch.
Claiming homesickness, Merino took advantage of a release clause inserted in
his contract and returned to his native Basque country with Sociedad - where
his team mates included Alexander Isak.
Other ex-Magpies transferred in recent days include:
Mehdi Abeid unattached to Al-Raed (Saudi Arabia)
Bobby Clark Liverpool to Red Bull Salzburg (Austria)
Jonjo Shelvey Rizespor (Turkey) to Eyupspor (Turkey)
Andros Townsend left Luton Town for Antalyaspor earlier this month,
only for the Turkish club to be hit with a transfer ban that means he's
currently unable to register and play for them.
PS: The brief tenure of old boy Nobby Solano as Blyth Spartans
manager ended on Tuesday with news of his departure from Croft Park.
He leaves the Northern Premier League club after failing to record a victory
in any of the six league games that he oversaw.
The green and whites are in the FA Cup First Qualifying Round action this
coming Saturday live on the BBC, facing Campion in a 12.30pm kick-off.

Newcastle U21s will break new
ground on Friday night, when they face Derby County U21s in PL2.
Venue for the game is the Causeway Lane home of Northern Premier League side
Matlock Town, known currently as The Proctor Cars Stadium and a ground we've
never previously played on at any level.
It's a 7pm kick-off and Matlock are selling tickets online here
priced at £5 adults, £3 concessions and £2 for U18s. The stadium postcode
is DE4 3AR.
Looking further ahead, tickets are now on sale for United's EFL Trophy visit
to Bradford City on Tuesday September 3rd (7.30pm).

with prices £5 adults, over 65s and 17-23s, £2 U16s and £1 for
U11s.
The Bantams have allocated the East Stand for away supporters but aren't
currently selling them online. We don't expect NUFC to sell any, meaning
that it will be a case of buying at the ground on the night (tbc).

Fab: club not country
Newcastle
defender Fabian Schar has announced his retirement from international
football, ending an 11 year senior career in the colours of
Switzerland.
The 32 year-old won his 86th cap and 44th as a Magpie against England in the
Quarter Finals of Euro 2024 last July. He' s the third Swiss player involved
that day to stand down, after Xherdan Shaqiri and Yann Sommer made similar
decisions.
Schar will complete his three match club suspension this weekend, returning
to action when Newcastle visit Wolves a fortnight later, instead of
preparing for Nations League games against Denmark and Spain.

THFC: An ankle injury is expected to keep Dominic Solanke out of this
game, but Rodrigo Bentancur, Micky van de Ven and Destiny Udogie should be

While Newcastle are in Carabao Cup action away at Nottingham Forest on
Wednesday, Spurs have a blank week to prepare for their visit to Gallowgate.
Both sides have four points after their opening two PL games of the season;
Spurs registering a 1-1 draw at Leicester City and a 4-0 home victory over
Everton.
Referee: Robert Jones

For the first time in

window closes later this week.
Disruption:
LNER strikes called
From BBC, Friday August 16th:
Train drivers at London North Eastern Railway (LNER) are set to
strike every weekend in September, October and two in November,
union bosses have announced.
Aslef, which represents train
drivers, said the walkouts at LNER were due to a breakdown in
industrial relations and agreements.
The fresh strike action is
separate from an ongoing pay dispute with all train companies, which
edged closer to being resolved in England this week after a new pay
offer.
LNER, which operates services on
the East Coast Mainline between London and Edinburgh and is run by
the government, said it was "surprised and disappointed"
by the announcement following recent talks.
Aslef said its member drivers at
LNER would walk out every Saturday between 31 August and 9 November
and on every Sunday from 1 September to 10 November.
The fresh walkouts, which total
22 days, are separate to the long-running row over train driver
wages at 16 train companies, which looks set to be resolved in England following a new pay offer made this week.

On This Day in History |
27th August |
Born Or Died:
1895 John Archibald born,
Strathaven, Scotland. (1922-23)

Goalkeeper "Jock" made just one senior
appearance for the Magpies, in a 5-1 home victory against
Manchester City in April 1922.
Beginning his career with Albion Rovers just before the outbreak
of World War I, Archibald signed for Southern League Reading in
1919 following his Army discharge.
Despite reportedly lacking a right thumb, he impressed and was
soon in the first team. However what was termed "misbehaviour"
with a team mate on the train returning from a cup match at
Plymouth in January 1920 saw his Reading career halted.
Joining Chelsea, he failed to play a senior competitive game
before returning to Scotland a year later with St Bernard’s.
Newcastle then acquired John as cover for Bill Bradley and he
took over from him for one game.
A move to Grimsby Town followed in May 1923, where he finally
became a regular starter and helped them to the Third Division
(North) Championship in 1926.
Later spells took him on to Darlington, Albion Rovers once
again, Airdrieonians and East Stirlingshire - hanging up his
gloves at the latter during 1929.

1938 Death of Colin Veitch, 57.

1973 Dietmar Hamann born, Waldsasson, Germany
(1998-99)

Newcastle paid Bayern Munich £4.5m for their German
international midfielder ahead of the 1998/99 season (his
last game for them being the German Cup Final).
Scoring in pre-season games at Bray and against Juventus at
SJP, Didi debuted in the season-opener against Charlton
Athletic - after which manager Kenny Dalglish exited, to be
replaced by Ruud Gullit.
Making a favourable impression in what was an inconsistent
team, Hamann netted five goals including a thunderbolt at
Nottingham Forest and helped United reach the FA Cup Final
for the second successive season.
However they lost 0-2 at Wembley to Manchester United,
Hamann failing to take to the field for the second half
after what was claimed to be a dressing room spat.
That proved to be his last game for the club and an £8m
switch to Liverpool was soon agreed - just days after going
on the record to express his love of life on Tyneside.
Later claims that he was unhappy at the switch of manager
from Dalglish to Gullit didn't really wash with Magpies
fans, given that he played precisely two competitive games
for the Scotsman.
Toon fans would deliver their own verdict on Hamann in
subsequent appearances against them, directing repeated
choruses of "There's only one greedy b*st*rd."
At Anfield he enjoyed trophy success and ended Kevin Keegan's career as
England boss, scoring in Germany's 1-0 win in the final game
at the "old" Wembley, prompting KK to resign after the final
whistle
Having played his last game for the Reds was the FA Cup
Final, July 2006 saw Didi involved in a farcical transfer
when joining Bolton Wanderers on a free transfer.
Within hours though he'd had a change of heart and admitted
to a preference for Manchester City, managed by former
Newcastle team mate Stuart Pearce.
With his registration not completed. Sam Allardyce's
Trotters duly allowed him to move - in return for £400K
compensation - while the player infuriated Wanderers
officials by saying Bolton was too far to travel from his
home - on the Wirral.
Following his release from City in 2009, Hamann was out of football for a
year before taking up a player/coach role at MK Dons. A
faker at a fake club, that's fitting.
July 2011 then saw him on the move again, taking over as Stockport County
manager following their demotion to the Conference.
However, by November Hamann had gone following a failed
takeover. He switched to punditry work and became an online
tipster - despite admitting to a gambling addiction that
once saw him lose £288K while spread betting on cricket.
A hugely enjoyable twitter fallout with fellow ex-Magpie and
former Manchester City colleague Joey Barton came in 2013,
with both men delighting in dredging up various
"misadventures" in the other's life.

1977 Stuart Elliott born, Willesden, London.
(1993-2000) 
Released by Arsenal as a teenager in 1993, Stuart's father
Bob - a Gunners scout - was instrumental in him moving to
United and signing a two year YTS deal.
Graduating from the juniors to the reserves, Elliott
initially appeared in defence but was also deployed in a
midfield role.
Taking on penalty duties for the second string in 1994/95
helped him register eight goals and Stuart was in the senior
squad for the following pre-season (appearing against
Hartlepool, Rushden and Gateshead).
He then returned to the reserves for the remainder of that
campaign, but saw his playing opportunities diminish when
United withdrew from the Central League in 1996.
Named as an unused substitute away to Southampton in January
1997 by incoming manager Kenny Dalglish, Elliott left SJP
the following month, joining Hull City on loan - only to be
dismissed on his debut.
Marking his 20th birthday on the bench for Newcastle's
Champions League qualification success in Zagreb, the next
in a seemingly endless series of loans over the following
three seasons took him to Swindon Town.
Later stops would include Dundee, Gillingham, Hartlepool
United, Wrexham, Bournemouth and Stockport County.
Released by United in May 2000, Stuart bowed out with a
long-range strike in the Northumberland Senior Cup Final
against Blue Star before signing for Darlington.
Within months, he'd broken his senior team scoring duck in
spectacular style, beating Dave Beasant from 45 yards in a
League Cup tie at Nottingham Forest.
After leaving the Quakers in 2001, he moved on to
Plymouth Argyle, Scunthorpe (trial), Scarborough (trial),
Carlisle, Durham, Scarborough, Exeter, Kidderminster
(trial), Durham, Merthyr Tydfil, Harrogate Town, Halifax,
Harrow Borough & Waltham Forest.
While playing for Gateshead in 2005, Elliott also made a
part-time return to Newcastle United, coaching at the
Academy.
Further moves saw him appear for Northwich Victoria, York
City and Grays Athletic, before an abortive return to Durham
City in 2009 when he played just once before the club
encountered severe financial problems and were forced to
release their squad.
Stu later signed for Northern League sides Bedlington
Terriers and Newcastle Benfield, managing the latter in
conjunction with his former SJP colleague Paul Brayson.
More recently he's combined coaching at Walker Riverside
Academy with his role at Newcastle United's Academy.
1989 Dean Critchlow born, North Shields.
(2005-07)
Academy midfielder who attended Whitley Bay High School and
featured for United's junior and reserve sides before his
release.
Joining Newcastle Blue Star, Dean
faced his former employers in a pre-season friendly at
Kingston Park in 2007 and later moved on to Northern League
outfit Washington.
Critchlow's next club was Northern League Team Northumbria,
playing while studying for a Sports
Development Degree and graduating in 2011.
Becoming a United Foundation coach whilst playing on for TN,
Dean featured in a 4-4 draw against Newcastle reserves in
the Northumberland Senior Cup final at SJP in 2012, his TN
side losing on penalties.
June 2014 then saw him join fellow Northern League side
Ashington before emigrating to Australia to live on the Gold
Coast, playing for Magic United.
Remaining in that area, Dean later became Director of
Coaching at Tamborine Mountain Eagles.
1989 Romain Amalfitano born Nice, France. (2012-14)
Winger who joined Chateuaroux as a youngster. but failed to
break into their senior side before departing in 2009.
Joining French third tier outfit Evian on a one year deal, 23 appearances and
three goals the following season persuaded Stade Reims to hand him a two
year contract.
Helping them achieve promotion to the top flight in his second season, talk of
interest from Newcastle emerged early in 2012, as the player opened
discussions with other clubs in the final six months of his deal.
That coincided with Amalfitano dropping out of the Reims side, apparently due
to injury - although for a time he was never referred to at all by their
official website - prompting speculation of a possible fallout.
By April 2012 a deal was apparently in place between United and Romain, played
the last six games of the season before officially becoming a Magpie on July
1st.
A first taste of action came in a 0-1 loss at German side
Chemntizer during pre-season, before netting in a penalty shootout against Olympiakos in Faro later that month.
Debuting competitively as a substitute in the 1-1 Europa League draw at Greek
side Atromitos, four more low-key appearances came in that competition
totalling 148 minutes (his sole start was in the 0-0 draw away to Maritimo).
Failing to make any impact, the misfit winger was named on the bench eight
times for domestic games between August 2012 and the January 2013 but never
blooded.
After some underwhelming reserve outings, Amalfitano was made available for
loan and agreed a season-long switch to French Ligue 2 side Dijon in August
2013.
That was made permanent in July 2014 and Romain remained
there until October 2020 when moving to Saudi Arabian side Al-Faisaly.
He then signed for Western Sydney Wanderers in June 2022 but had left by the following May.

1990 Luuk De Jong born Aigle,
Switzerland (2014)
 Over two
years after he was first linked with a move to United, De
Jong joined on loan from Borussia Monchengladbach in late
January 2014 - arriving as Yohan Cabaye left Tyneside for
Paris St.Germain.
Joining De Grafschaap in 2001 (his family having relocated
from Switzerland to Holland in 1994), Luuk's senior debut
came in the 2008/09 season - a campaign that ended in
relegation for the Dutch side.
Moving on to FC Twente for £700K, he was on the fringe of
the side who won the Dutch title in 2010, scoring a total of
37 goals in the following two seasons.
Appearing at youth & U21 level for Holland, De Jong's senior
debut came in a friendly against Austria in 2011, scoring
his first goal against Finland a year later
Signed by Borussia Monchengladbach for £12.5m, De Jong
scored six times in his first season but was left on the
bench in the following campaign before agreeing a loan move
to SJP in January 2014.
Given the number 18 squad number formerly worn by Jonas
Gutierrez, De Jong made his debut at half time in the
Tyne-wear derby with his side already two goals behind.
A first start then came in a 0-3 defeat at Chelsea and he
racked up a dozen outings and spent 671 minutes without ever
remotely looking like scoring a goal. Tragic.
United rightly passed up the chance to sign Luuk permanently
for £8m and he was sent back to Borussia Monchengladbach.
Elder brother Siem then arrived at SJP on a six year
contract from Ajax in July 2014, revealing in interviews
that his move had come about in part his brother's
recommendation.
Thoughts/fears of a De Jong family reunion at SJP were
thankfully dispelled when a £4m transfer to PSV Eindhoven
was agreed.
Ending that long goal drought by scoring on his competitive
debut, Luuk recaptured his scoring touch in the Eredivisie
and also won full international caps for Holland.
Scoring no less than 94 goals for PSV over five seasons
during which he collected three championsip medals, the
summer 2019 transfer window then saw him depart in favour of
Spanish side Sevilla for £11m.
That was amazing enough but this modern-day Jon Dahl
Tomasson then managed to score twice in the delayed Europa
League Final in August 2020 to beat Inter Milan 3-2.
Incredibly, Luuk then joined Barcelona on a season-long
loan, scoring seven times in 29 games before returning to
PSV in July 2022.

Topping off a high old day for the home fans (who can be
heard singing "you're not fit to wipe my arse")
was the appearance on the field of a runaway dog at one

However, a late Zagreb fightback led to them levelling in

loomed large, Ketsbaia latched onto a through-ball from
Tino and beat the keeper to send us through. Magic.

Hopes of Champions League qualification died after a 1-0 advantage from

With no breakthrough, spot kicks were required and after five each left
