Wissa: wanting away
Following his absence from the side beaten 1-2
at the mackems on Saturday - meaning he's not kicked a ball as yet
this season, Brentford forward Yoane Wissa issued the
following statement. It's beyond question that the other Premier
League club mentioned is Newcastle:
"Over the past few weeks, there has been increased speculation
about my future at Brentford Football Club. As a result, I wanted to
speak directly and honestly about exactly where things stand.
"I have stayed silent for much of the summer, but with just
hours remaining of the transfer window I feel compelled make it
clear that I want to leave Brentford. I believe the club are unduly
standing in my way despite a series of fair offers throughout the
summer.
"I have always given 100 per cent for Brentford since the day
I signed back in 2021. I am proud of what we have built together and
have never taken the opportunity to play for the club for granted.
Brentford fans will always have a special place in my heart.
And I have always conducted myself professionally, both on and off
the pitch. It has been a privilege to wear this shirt for 149 games
and celebrate 49 goals.
"Earlier this summer, I held open discussions with the club's
senior management, including key directors and the new head coach. I
made clear my intention to explore a new challenge.
"During these conversations, it was confirmed to me and my
representatives that the club would not stand in my way if a
reasonable offer was received. This was also put in writing.
"Based on this understanding, I sought to find a new club,
keeping Brentford informed with full transparency at every step.
"I received a formal offer from another Premier League club
and communicated I wanted to join. I was under the impression, from
all my conversations with Brentford, that there was a mutual
agreement to part ways.
"Yet as the window comes to an end, the club has now
significantly changed its position, going against what was
communicated. This has left me in a difficult and frustrating
position. The promise that I could leave this summer has not been
fulfilled. It saddens me to have to write that, and I maintain total
respect for the club and its fans.
"I want to make it clear that I have not acted
unprofessionally, nor do I wish to leave Brentford on bad terms. I
have been transparent in my position throughout. I have continued to
communicate openly with the club and conduct myself in a way that
reflects my values as both a footballer and a human being.
"I remain hopeful that a fair and reasonable resolution can
still be found before the transfer window shuts.
"In the meantime, I must do what I feel is right for my career
and family and insist that Brentford honour their promise to let me
join a new club and at a fair price.
"I want to thank all the Brentford fans for their support and
understanding during this difficult situation. Your energy and
belief in me has always meant a great deal. This has never been
about walking away from what is a fantastic football club. It's
about being allowed to move forward with Brentford's blessing based
on repeated promises that I could leave for a new chapter this
summer.
"Being made to stay beyond this summer will only tarnish four
wonderful years at this incredible club and so I ask Brentford's
owners and directors to now honour their promise to let me leave in
the final hours of the window."
PS: Saturday also saw Wolves without their unsettled striker
Jorgen Strand Larsen, missing a 0-1 home defeat to Everton due to an
achilles injury that manager Vitor Pereira was adamant had
preventing him from appearing.
The transfer window closes at 7pm on Monday.
Premier
League:
Goalless again
Leeds United 0 Newcastle 0
Newcastle's winless start to the season extended to three games on Saturday after another goalless away game, this time at Elland Road
against newly-promoted Leeds United.
It was a game where neither side looked like scoring in the heavy Yorkshire
rain and Eddie Howe's makeshift side struggled to create any meaningful
chances.
Starting a Premier League game for the first time,
Will Osula had the first opportunity in the 16th minute
when he controlled Jacob Ramsey's cross but saw his shot blocked by Gabriel Gudmundsson.
That was a rare effort at goal and it wasn't until the 43rd minute that
Jacob Murphy had a shot on target which was beaten away by goalkeeper Lucas
Perri.
Fabian Schar then had a shot deflected just over the bar, but in truth it was
a half of little incident or excitement.
Ramsey was replaced by Lewis Miley at the break but there was little change
in the sterile play from both sides, a rare moment of excitement seeing Perri tip wide
Murphy's
shot from distance.
The introduction of Anthony Elanga and Harvey Barnes on the right and left
flanks respectively failed to provide the required impetus; both struggling
to beat opponents and what crosses there were either over-hit or aimless.
Substitute Lewis Hall was next to try his luck from outside the box and his
effort flew narrowly over the bar, but what passed for chances after that
point came at other end - substitute Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late effort saved by Pope with his foot.
Neither team could celebrate their point at the final whistle but there was
little disappointment on the faces of either manager after what were difficult weeks.
A clearly emotional Sean Longstaff left the field after the final whistle
with a Newcastle shirt draped across his shoulders, acknowledging the
applause of the away fans.
The midfielder gave a spirited display on his first Premier League start for
Leeds, but had he played for the visitors, it's unlikely that the scoreline
would have been altered.
Jacob Ramsey meanwhile made his first start as a Magpie but was replaced at
half time after an ankle concern.
Already lacking the injured Joelinton and suspended Anthony Gordon, Eddie
Howe replaced Sven Botman in the second half after he received treatment
on the field, but played down concerns that was due to an injury.
Newcastle fell to 15th but Sunday's results could see them drop further
before an international break where new boy
Nick Woltemade - here today - links up with Germany and could face a
Slovakia side featuring Martin Dubravka.
By the time he returns, United's record signing and his new fans will know
whether his was the final action of a transfer window that has visibly
destabilised the club. Hopefully not.
Full match report to follow.
Team: Pope, Trippier (Hall 62), Botman (Barnes 69), Schar,
Burn, Livramento, Tonali, Guimaraes, Ramsey (L.Miley 46), J.Murphy (Elanga
62), Osula.
Subs n/u: Ramsdale, Krafth, Thiaw, Lascelles, Willock.

Subs n/u: Darlow, Bijol, Bornauw, Okafor, Piroe.
Booked: Gnonto.
Crowd: 36,727 including around 2,900 away fans who made their
feelings known about the Alexander Isak situation clear at various points
during the game.
New signing Nick Woltemade was in attendance and mobbed as he made his way
through the away fan zone before kick-off. From a previous era, goalscorers
Peter Beardsley and Imre Varadi were also both spotted.
After the game Eddie Howe said:
"I thought defensively, we were very strong. We've been really good in
the three games so far in that respect, but we've got work to do at the
other end of the pitch, which is really unlike us.
"We've historically been a really good attacking team, very free-scoring and
very good at chance creation, but it hasn't quite been there. We're
disappointed with that aspect of our play.
"I don't want to sit here and say that is the only reason [absent
players]. We have to do better with what we have, but when you lose the
quality of players that we have from last season to this, Anthony Gordon is
a big miss and Joelinton. Alex is a huge player for us. so take those three
players away and you're going to suffer slightly.
"But I still think we've got really good players on the pitch and we need to
do better.
"We're really looking forward to that clarity in terms of what our squad
looks like... once we have that, we'll move forward and I'm sure we can do
really well this year.
"We're really pleased with what we've done so far. I genuinely feel we're a
lot stronger squad-wise than we were last year.
"We've had an issue at the top end of the pitch so fingers crossed we might
be able to do some more."
On the Botman replacement:
"I don't think that's an injury: tt was the state of the game.
Again, I think with the new protocols, when players go down injured and the
physio comes on, they're not off for longer periods than they've ever been.
"So, there was a good chance for us to change system and to
try and win the game.”

Latest:
Woltemade's a Mag
Newcastle have now confirmed the transfer of forward Nick Woltemade,
who joins from Bundesliga side Stuttgart for a club record fee that
is undisclosed, but exceeds the claimed £63m paid to Real Sociedad
for Alexander Isak in 2022.
He will wear squad number 27.
Standing six foot six inches tall, the 23 year-old
German international flew into Tyneside on Thursday evening and was
spotted inside SJP on Friday. He then turned up at Saturday's 0-0
draw with Leeds at Elland Road.
Woltemade scored 17 goals last season in all competitions after
completing a move from his hometown club Werder Bremen in 2024, when
he signed a four year contract.
That transfer followed his participation in the Euro U21 finals when
he finished as top scorer with six goals, but failed to find the net
in the final when Germany lost 2-3 to an England side including
Newcastle's Tino Livramento.

Leeds United U18s 3 Newcastle U18s

With three wins from their opening trio of league and cup games
so far this season, Newcastle U18s were at Thorp Arch on Saturday in
a fixture switched from Tyneside.
And the blue-clad visitors made an excellent start when Sam Alabi
shot home with only four minutes on the clock.
That advantage was wiped out on the hour by Callum Mills, only for
Newcastle to regain the lead thanks to a 62nd minute header by
substitute Isaac Moran from a corner.
The Magpies extended their advantage further when Henry
Johnson's low 75th effort from distance flew in via a post.
Within four minutes the Whites had replied when a loose ball was
forced home by midfielder Kenneth Mensah and they levelled
seven minutes from full time when a cross from the left was
deflected past George Mair by Aiden Thompson.
Team: Mair, Johnson, Goodbrand, Epia, Old (Moran 46), Finneran

Latest:
Kuol Czechs out
The departure of Garang Kuol was announced on Friday
evening with the Australian international winger making a permanent
switch to Sparta Prague for a nominal fee.
That reunites him with his former Magpies U21 coach Diarmuid
O'Carroll, who made the same move in June.
20-year old Kuol has signed a "long contract" with the Czechs after
failing to break into the first team squad during his two and a half
years on Tyneside.
He wasn't involved in Sunday's 3-1 home over Zlin.
The Egyptian-born player who settled in Australia joined United from A-League side Central Coast Mariners
in late 2022, arriving early the following year and immediately
beginning a loan spell in Scotland with Hearts.
That did little to boost his reputation and a second temporary departure from
Gallowgate in August 2023
saw him enjoy even less pitch time at Dutch side FC Volendam.
In between those two loan moves came a taste of senior football
in the black and white; playing in both post-season kickabouts in
Australia and scoring in the penalty shootout that defeated Spurs in
Melbourne.
Eight league and cup goals for Newcastle U21s last season failed to
convince Eddie Howe of his worth to the senior squad and his final outing for the Magpies was a
low-key shift against Gateshead in the National
League Cup earlier this month.
The Magpies may have hit pay dirt with their speculative acquisition
of Yankuba Minteh, but the Kuol punt will go down in our recent
history as a misadventure.
2025/26 :
Bantams in Toon
Newcastle begin the defence of their Carabao Cup title with a
Third Round
home tie against League One Bradford City.
The scheduling of Newcastle's Champions League home game against Barcelona
on Thursday September 18th will result in the Premier League visit to
Bournemouth moving from Saturday 20th to Sunday 21st.
As a consequence, the Bantams will visit Gallowgate on Wednesday September
24th (theoretically it could also be on Thursday 25th, given that Newcastle
aren't back in PL action until Arsenal visit SJP on Sunday 28th).
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 third in League One, with four wins and two draws
from their opening six 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.

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.

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 a
statement, including this:
"Alex remains under contract and that no commitment has ever been made by
a club official that Alex can leave Newcastle United this summer."

number 14 during the 0-0 draw at Leeds.

On This Day in History |
|
31st August |
|
Born Or Died:
1910 Harold Aubrey Heward born, Hetton-le-Hole.
(1932-34)
Defender signed from Herrington Swifts who made his Magpies
debut in a 0-4 loss at Huddersfield Town in February 1933.
Making all five of his Newcastle appearances within a three month period,
Heward signed for Bradford Park Avenue in August 1934.
He later played for Hartlepools United (for whom he debuted on his 25th
birthday), and Yeovil & Petters United.
1954 Alan Kennedy born, sunderland. (1971-78)
A member of United's beaten 1974 FA Cup Final side, who had
made his senior team debut just over a year before in a home victory over Stoke
City.
Also appearing in the 1976 League Cup final loss, left back Alan remained with
United until the relegation season of 1977/78 before being sold to Liverpool
for £330K.
And in over 350 first team games at Anfield, Alan picked up five league
championships, four League Cups, three Charity Shields and two European Cups -
scoring in both of the latter finals (one in the penalty shootout).
Moving on to his hometown club in 1985, Kennedy was in the mackem side famously
beaten by Gillingham in the playoffs.
Later spells followed at Husqvarna (Sweden), Beerschot (Belgium), Boldklubben
1903 (Denmark) Hartlepool, Northwich Victoria, Grantham Town, Wigan, Colne
Dynamoes, Wrexham, Morecambe, Netherfield and Radcliffe Borough.
Kennedy finally retired from playing at the age of 40 with Barrow, working in
the media and as an after-dinner speaker thereafter.
1970 Nikodimos Papavasiliou born, Limassol, Cyprus. (1993-94)
Cypriot international midfielder who moved to Tyneside from OFI
Crete for a £120,000 fee during July 1993, making his bow in a pre-season game
at Hartlepool and netting a penalty at Berwick Rangers a week later.
"Nicky" debuted in United's Premiership season opener at home to
Spurs and whose major contribution to our side was providing the pass for Andy
Cole to equalise at Old Trafford in his third outing.
However, his first team career in England would be over by late September 1993
- substituted during the home win over Sheffield Wednesday and replaced by Alex
Mathie, who immediately netted.
Picking up an injury during a reserve game, Papavasiliou completed his national service in Cyprus and belatedly made a £25,000
return to OFI in December 1994.
Later moves took him to Apollon Limassol, Anorthosis Famagusta, Enosis Neon
Paralimni and Olympiakos Nicosia - ending his playing days at APOEL Nicosia in
2003.
A managerial career taking in a clutch of Cypriot clubs began in 2006 with APEP Pitsilia,
followed by Olympiakos Nicosia, (Cyprus) and a stint at OFI Crete.
Back in Cyprus with Olympiakos Nicosia again, Doxa Katokopia, Enosis Neon Paralimni, Olympiakos Nicosia
again, Apollon Limassol and Ermis Aradippou, 2015 saw a switch to mainland
Europe and Slovakians Slovan Bratislava.
Next came a diversion to Greece with the
Ergotelis and Panionios clubs before yet another relocation, this time to
Egypt.
Beginning in with Wadi
Degla SC in 2020, he later served rivals National Bank, Al Ittihad and El
Mahalla - fitting in another Cypriot return with Famagusta.
By his 55th birthday though, he was between clubs yet again.
1983 Death of Jimmy Naylor, 81.
(1930-32)
2013 Death of Jimmy Greenhalgh, 90.
(1962-66) Coach to Joe Harvey at SJP.

Thomas(18,20,43),
Taylor(63),
O'Neill(13,19), McAnearney(37)
13,960
An eventful afternoon at Home Park saw Newcastle fall
behind three times in the first half but quickly level on
each occasion.
Having missed the opening two games of the season after
asking to play for the reserves, Barrie Thomas returned to
plunder his second hat trick in Newcastle colours.
Sadly two of the four Supporters club buses were delayed
and the occupants reached the ground just as the half time
whistle blew.
1966
Sheffield United (h)
1-0 (1-0)
Division One
P4, 5pts, 10th/22
og(Wagstaff)(40)
21,876
A teatime downpour was blamed for a drop in
attendance of almost 15,000 from the previous weekend at
this Wednesday night game.
The only goal came when Albert Bennett sent a throw-in
towards Ron McGarry, only for defender Barry Wagstaffe
to reach it first - and
inadvertently lob the ball over his own 'keeper,
Alan Hodgkinson in the Gallowgate goal.
Wagstaff was playing in the same Blades side as his
brother Tony.
 1968
sunderland (a)
1-1 (1-0)
Division One
P7, 7pts, 10th/22
Robson(20)
Suggett(70)
49,807
United left Roker Park with just a point, after
Jim Scott's 31st minute effort was dubiously disallowed
and Wyn Davies missed a hat-trick of chances during the
second period.
24 fans were left hospitalised after trouble before the
game.
 1974

Division One
P5, 5pts, 10th/22

Taylor had handled on the line.
 1977
Millwall (h)
0-2 (0-1)
League Cup 2nd Round
Seasman(5), Pearson(74)
21,861
Following 0-2 league losses at Liverpool and
Boro, United crashed out of the League Cup by the
same scoreline.
The second tier Lions were full value for their
victory, Newcastle-born, former mackem midfielder
Brian Chambers prominent.
The night got worse for one home fan, with a tannoy
announcement during the second half requesting that
Paul McDonald return to Whitley Bay immediately.
He did so, only to find out that his shop had been
destroyed by fire.
 1985
Queens Park Rangers (h)
3-1 (1-0)
Division One
P5, 11pts, 4th/24
Beardsley(63), Reilly(62), McDonald(21)

of the season, George Reilly netting his third goal in

 1991

2-1 (1-0)
Division Two
P4, 4pts, 18th/24
O'Brien(44), Quinn(54)
Skinner(88)
6,334
Just as it seemed an inspired first half display from
United at Bath's Twerton Park would go unrewarded, Liam
O'Brien hit a dipping shot from 25 yards that eluded
Pirates 'keeper Brian Parkin.
Winger Franz Carr was in inspired form and Rovers resorted
to switching full backs in an attempt to get anywhere
near him. Mick Quinn added a deserved second after the
break and more could have followed.

1-1 (0-0)
Premier League
P6, 6pts, 14th/22
Cole(47)

United boss Kevin Keegan remonstrated with home fans
after they banged their fists on the roof of the United
dugout following Town's equaliser.

Hutchison(87pen)
17,375
Hammer Steve Potts opened the scoring at a three-sided
Upton Park, diverting a Scott Sellars effort beyond his
own 'keeper.
That set Newcastle on their way to a comfortable win,
despite Tyneside-born Don Hutchison marking his debut
for the hosts by scoring from the penalty spot.

 1997
Newcastle's game at Anfield was called off while the
nation was called up to mourn the death of the future
King's ex-wife.
Quite why postponing a match would ease the pain of the
grieving masses was never fully explained, but David
Mellor was later revealed as having made the decision,
in his capacity as Football Task Force chief.
Going to a football match was possibly the best thing to
do on a day like that - the telly was rubbish.... PS:
rugby union fixtures were staged, including one
featuring Will Carling.
2000 Full back
Olivier Bernard joined United from Lyon. Following close
on the departure of his countrymen, David Terrier and
Lionel Perez, his arrival was greeted with something
short of wild enthusiasm.
2004 Wayne Rooney
joined Manchester United for somewhere around the £30m
mark on transfer deadline day. Following Jonathan
Woodgate's transfer to Real Madrid this left our
Chairman's statement a few days earlier sounding a
little hollow:
"Our
recent record shows we can be trusted to deliver quality
players. I'm not going to say too much at this stage but
I think the fans will be pleasantly surprised at what
results from the Woodgate deal."
"We
didn't go into the Woodgate transfer without a long-term
plan. All will be revealed soon."
Unless
of course, he was referring to the Owen deal a year
later....
2005
Michael Owen was paraded in front of 15,000 fans at SJP as
a remarkable signing was celebrated by all associated
with the club. Little did we know what lay ahead....
Quote of the day: "When it came down to Real Madrid
or Newcastle there was no question in my mind."
The same day saw Nobby Solano return from Aston Villa,
James Milner going the other way on loan. The day's
other major transfer saw Jermaine Jenas join Spurs for
£7m.
2006
Newcastle completed the deadline day capture of Antoine
Sibierski from Manchester City for an undisclosed fee.
French-born midfielder/striker Sibierski was in the final
year of his current contract with City and signed a one
year deal.
 2009
Leicester City (h)
1-0 (0-0)
Championship
P5, 13pts, 1st/24
Guthrie(52)
38,813
A thunderbolt from Danny Guthrie put United two points
clear at the top of the Championship table after a
fourth successive victory and clean sheet.
Eyebrows were raised by the non-appearance of central
defender Fabricio Coloccini in the squad, but it was
confirmed that Argentina had invoked the five day rule
ahead of their game against Brazil.
NUFC.com match report
2010
Newcastle reserves began their season with a 3-1 victory
on wearyside in a match that they dominated, despite
playing for almost an hour with just ten men.
Making his competitive debut for the Magpies was Sol
Campbell, while what was a vaguely bonkers night
included a straight red card for Xisco and goals from

2012 The transfer window
closed with United retaining their existing squad, but
failing to add any further reinforcements since the
acquisition of Vurnon Anita.
With Europa League Group stage participation already
assured, Newcastle's thin squad was going to be put to
the test....
 2013
Fulham (h)
1-0 (0-0)
Premier League
P3, 4pts, 12th/20
Ben Arfa(86)
46,402
Over seven hours
since last scoring a home goal, things looked bleak with
less than five minutes to go at SJP.
At that point Hatem Ben Arfa stepped into the Fulham area
for the umpteenth time, but for once resisted the
temptation to try and dribble through the defence and
instead cut infield to loop a shot that flew past
'keeper David Stockdale in the Gallowgate End goal.

2016
Spurs completed a
deadline day deal for Moussa Sissoko at a staggering
£30m - both clubs confirming the news around 40 minutes
after the transfer window closed.
For much of the day Sissoko had looked likely to join
Everton after they met United's asking price, before
Spurs gazumped the Toffees.
It concluded a transfer window where no less than 45 NUFC
deals were completed (including five contract
extensions).
2017 Transfer deadline day activity
consisted of loans for Tim Krul to Brighton and Achraf
Lazaar to Italians Benevento.
 2019
Watford (h)
1-1 (1-1)
Premier League
P4, 4pts, 14th/20
Schar(41)
Hughes(2)
44,157
Despite
falling behind 80 seconds after the start, Steve Bruce's
first home point came thanks to a Fabian Schar equaliser.
The smallest SJP home league crowd since 2012 witnessed a demoralising afternoon; United
struggling to overcome a Hornets side who were bidding to avoid
a seventh successive Premier League defeat.

 2022 Liverpool (a)
1-2 (1-0)
Premier League
P5, 6pts, 11th/20
Isak(38)
Firmino(61), Carvalho(90+8)
53,316
Another Anfield late show left
United
pointless; Alexander
Isak's opener followed by a dubious VAR call to
deny the debutant another goal in front of the Kop.
After
Roberto Firminio's leveller, Fabio Carvalho stabbed home from point blank range in the eighth
of five minutes of time added
on by referee Andre Marriner.
