Earlier: NUFC confirmed on Thursday that their search for a CEO had ended
with the installation of Toronto-born 54 year-old, David "Hoppy" Hopkinson:
Newcastle United are delighted to announce the appointment of
David Hopkinson as the club's new Chief Executive Officer.
David officially joins the club on Friday, 5th September and
will undertake a comprehensive handover process supported by
outgoing CEO Darren Eales, who steps down from the position for
health reasons.
David brings more than 25 years of senior executive leadership
and commercial expertise across three countries, delivering results
for some of the world's most iconic and valuable sporting
organisations.
David joins Newcastle United after serving as President and
Chief Operating Officer at Madison Square Garden Sports in the
United States, where he led the business operations of the New York
Knicks and New York Rangers.
Both are among the most valuable franchises in the National
Basketball Association and National Hockey League respectively, and
compete at the world-renowned Madison Square Garden in New York
City.
Previously, as Global Head of Partnerships at Real Madrid,
David served on the executive team as they cemented their place as
one of the world's most valuable football clubs.
Earlier, he spent over two decades at Maple Leaf Sports &
Entertainment as Chief Commercial Officer, overseeing commercial
activities for the NHL's Toronto Maple Leafs and the NBA's Toronto
Raptors.
David said: "I am incredibly honoured to join Newcastle United
at such an exciting time in the club's history.
"This club represents something truly special. It has
extraordinary history and heritage, incredibly passionate
supporters, and ownership, players and staff who are committed to
excellence.
"Having worked with iconic teams across different countries, I
understand what it takes to build sustainable success at the highest
levels of global sport.
"I greatly admire what has been achieved by the club so far,
and I am excited and motivated by what is ahead as we strive to
position Newcastle United among the world's elite clubs."
Newcastle United chairman, Yasir Al-Rumayyan, said: "We are
delighted to welcome David to Newcastle United.
"David is an outstanding executive whose track record across
global sport and entertainment speaks for itself.
"His experience and strategic capabilities will be invaluable
as we continue to build on the club's presence locally and grow it
globally on and off the pitch.
"David's leadership will be critical as we build upon what we
have already achieved since the acquisition towards an exciting
future and sustainable success.
"I would like to personally thank Darren Eales for his
exceptional work and leadership, as well as his friendship, over the
last three years."
Director Jamie Reuben added: "David's arrival as CEO comes at
a crucial time for the club and I am confident that he will prove to
be an excellent fit for the role.
"He brings a wealth of experience in leadership positions at
some of the biggest names in world sport, with an incredibly strong
foundation to build upon."
2025/26:

Barrie Thomas RIP

The death of former Magpie Barrie Thomas has been announced, at the age of 88.
Barrie was a centre
forward who worked down the mines before signing for Leicester City,
only for national service to halt his progress.
Joining Mansfield Town before moving on to Scunthorpe United in 1959, Thomas
was top scorer in the Football League with 30 goals in 22 games when
fellow Second Division side Newcastle bid a record £45,000 for him in early
1962.
The Iron opted to cash in and a deal was concluded with John
McGuigan also moving from Gallowgate to the Old Showground - while both Leeds
United and Manchester United made their interest known.
Debuting in a 1-1 draw with Huddersfield Town at St. James' Park, Thomas first found the
net in his third game - away at Swansea - and Walter Winterbottom quickly
called him up to an England training session, although he failed to make the
1962 World Cup squad.
However, his time at SJP was blighted by injury and criticism from some
fans and colleagues and while netting hat tricks against Boro, Plymouth and
Rotherham, he failed to fire his side to promotion.
Losing his place to Ron McGarry, Barrie reluctantly returned to Scunthorpe
early in 1964. His scoring touch remained despite fitness issues and as
Newcastle were celebrating promotion the following May, he netted five as the Iron
beat Luton Town 8-1.
Injury ended his playing career at Barnsley, after which he had a
spell managing local non-league side Measham Swifts.
Update:
Mitro makes his move
Former Magpie Aleksander Mitrovic is reported to have turned
down the chance of a return to European club football after securing
his exit from Saudi side Al Hilal.
The 30 year-old Serbian forward has instead joined Qatar Stars
League side Al-Rayyan on a free transfer.
Update:
Eddie gets a six pack
As the dust settles on another mind-numbing transfer window,
it's worth cataloguing the inbound business Newcastle have completed -
despite well-publicised personnel issues in several off-field roles:
Aaron Ramsdale (Southampton)
Malick Thiaw (AC Milan)
Anthony Elanga (Nottingham Forest)
Jacob Ramsey (Aston Villa)
Nick Woltemade (Stuttgart)
Yoane Wissaa (Brentford)
Departing meanwhile* were:
Lloyd Kelly (Juventus)
Jamal Lewis (released)
Callum Wilson (released)
Sean Longstaff (Leeds United)
Isaac Hayden (released)
Martin Dubravka (Burnley)
Odysseas Vlachodimos (Seville)
Matt Targett (Middlesbrough)
Garang Kuol (Sparta Prague)
Alexander Isak (Liverpool)
* we avoided the expression "off the books" as segments of the Vlachodimos
and Targett wages are still paid by NUFC.
2025/26:
Fixture updates
Here's our take on future PL changes - all still tbc:
Arsenal (h) remains on Sunday September 28th as both
ourselves and the Gunners play in the CL on the following Wednesday.
Nottingham Forest (h) was moved to Sunday October 5th as the
Tricky Trees play in the Europa League the previous Thursday.
Brighton (a) remains on Saturday October 18th as we play the
Benfica (h) CL game the following Tuesday.
The November PL TV fixtures are due for release on or by Wednesday
September 17th, with the following options:
West Ham (a) could be Saturday November 1st or Sunday
November 2nd - the Friday is unlikely as the Carabao Cup Fourth
Round is that week. The Monday slot wouldn't work as the Bilbao (h)
CL game is the following Wednesday.
Brentford (a) could be Saturday November 8th or Sunday
November 9th - the Friday wouldn't work due to the Bilbao (h) CL
game the previous Wednesday and there are no Monday games as the
international break commences.
Manchester City (h) has to be on Saturday November 22nd* as
both ourselves and the Citizens play in the CL on the following
Tuesday. *There is a chance of the PL scheduling this for Friday
night but not thought likely.
Looking further ahead into 2026:
Aston Villa (h) has to move from Saturday January 24th to
Sunday January 25th as the Villans play in the Europa League the
previous Thursday. It cannot move to the Monday as we are in CL
action the following Wednesday.

Wolves
(h)
Following draws at Aston Villa and Leeds United and a home defeat to
Liverpool, Newcastle go searching for their first win over the season on
Saturday week (September 13th) when Wolves visit Tyneside in the Premier
League.
It's an old-fashioned, non-televised 3pm KO at SJP.
Team: Jacob Ramsey and Joelinton are early
doubts.
Anthony Gordon serves the second of his three game domestic ban. He'll
be available against Barcelona in the Champions League before completing
his suspension against Bournemouth in the PL and then returning for
selection against Bradford City in the Carabao Cup.

NUFC win 4/9

WWFC win 6/1

WWFC: Resisting interest from Newcastle in Norwegian international
forward Jorgen Strand Larsen, coach Vitor Pereira added Nigerian
international striker Tolu Arokodare to his squad from Belgian side Genk.
So far this season, Wolves are pointless and bottom of the table after a
0-4 home loss to Manchester City, 0-1 defeat at Bournemouth a 2-3
reverse to Everton at Molineux.

The new system is 24/24/48: 24
hours for any ST holders to apply, 24 hours to determine success, 48 hours to
purchase.
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.
The 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 get a couple of hours head start.
Tickets unclaimed by successful applicants within 48 hours are then offered
to those unsuccessful applicants with the next highest loyalty points total.
NUFC contact those applicants directly.

On This Day in History |
|
7th September |
|
Born Or Died:
1893 Thomas Goodwill born, Bates Cottages,
Northumberland. (1913-16)
Outside left Tommy played for local sides Bates Wanderers and
Seaton Delaval before joining United for £100 in May 1913.
Impressing for the reserves, a first team debut followed in a 0-1 home loss to
Everton the following September and he quickly became a regular starter.
The outbreak of World War I saw league football suspended and Goodwill enlisted
for the Northumberland Fusiliers, arriving in France during November 1915.
Sadly Tommy (along with fellow Magpie Dan Dunglinson) were two of the 20,000
British soldiers killed on the opening day of the Battle of the Somme on July
1st 1916.
His name appears on the war memorial at Thiepval in Northern France, only a
short distance away from where he fell.

1900 William Wilson born, Port Seton, Scotland. (1925-29)
Goalkeeper who joined United from Peebles Rovers in his native
Scotland during 1925, initially on a month-long trial.
Handed his first senior start that September against Blackburn Rovers at
St.James' Park, Willie had the misfortune to finish on the losing side in a 1-7
reverse.
Despite that inauspicious entrance, Wilson played on and earned a permanent
deal, keeping his first clean sheet a month later as Arsenal were downed 7-0 on
Tyneside.
The following season saw Wilson achieve an ever-present feat, keeping goal in
all 42 games of Newcastle's First Division title campaign - plus their three FA
Cup ties.
Making his final Magpies appearance in a 2-5 derby defeat on Wearside in
October 1928, Willie joined Millwall in a £700 transfer the following year,
remaining there until his return to Scotland in 1934.

1912 Oswald Bowden born,
Newcastle. (1929-30)

Forward who played for local side Meldon Villa before joining
Newcastle and featuring for the reserves in North Eastern League
fixtures.
Thought by United to be "too frail" in the words of one reporter,
Derby County boss and former Magpie George Jobey signed Ossie in May 1930, also
taking fellow SJP junior Alf Dunmore to the Baseball Ground.
However Bowden's time as a Ram didn't start well, a bout of pneumonia leaving
him in a Leeds hospital when his team mates kicked off the following season.
Belatedly debuting for Derby's first team in March 1933, Bowden played just 10
senior games before joining Nottingham Forest ahead of the 1935/36 season.
However he was only slightly busier in the following two years and similarly
underused
during later spells at both Brighton & Hove Albion and Southampton.
Returning to Tyneside and playing for Gateshead, Ossie's death was reported
during May 1977.
1943 Dave Turner born,
Retford, Nottinghamshire. (1960-63)

Midfielder who debuted in a 0-3 home loss to Leeds United in the final game of
the 1961/62 season, the same season in which he
won an FA Youth Cup medal.
Dave's second league appearance then came almost a
year later - a 2-2 season- closing home draw with
Preston North End.
His third and final senior outing was a 1-2 League Cup loss at Bournemouth
during November
1963, Brighton and Hove Albion paying £4,500 to
sign him a month later.
Going on to play
over 300 times for the Seagulls, Dave won a Fourth
Division Championship medal in 1965 and was later joined at the Goldstone by
fellow former Magpie Kit Napier.
Loaned to Portsmouth in 1972, Turner was soon on
his way to Blackburn Rovers on a free transfer
early the following season.
Later spells on the coaching staff at both
Sheffield United and Aldershot Town were followed
by a spell coaching out in Canada with Toronto
Blizzard.
Returning for a second spell with Aldershot in
1990, Dave later returned to live in his native
Nottinghamshire.

1953 Chris Guthrie
born, Dilston, Northumberland. (1970-73).

A striker who came through the junior and
reserve sides at SJP, Guthrie was capped by
England at youth and schoolboy level and younger
brother of Magpies defender Ron.
Debuting in a 0-1 home loss to Manchester United
in October 1971 as a midfielder, Chris retained
his place for a defeat at Everton by the same
margin the following week.
What proved to be his only league outing as a
forward for Newcastle came the following April
when he partnered Malcolm Macdonald in a 0-1 loss
at Nottingham Forest.
Moving on to Southend United in a £10,000 deal
late in 1972, Guthrie would go on to enjoy a
decade in the Football League at the Shrimpers, Sheffield United,
Swindon Town, Fulham and Millwall.
After a spell with non-league Witney Town, Chris then tried his luck in the Netherlands
with Roda JC (pictured) in 1982 and later that
Willem II and Helmond Sport.
Playing for the Seiko club in
Hong Kong, Guthrie returning to England for a time
with Blyth Spartans before another overseas stint,
this time with Royal Racing White in the Belgian
city of Brussels.
Working as Ashington's commercial manager, Chris returned to United
as kitman between 1989 and 1993.
Away from football his great passion was fly
fishing and he represented England at the sport,
in addition to contributing various articles to
specialist publications.

1976 Garry Brady born,
Glasgow, Scotland. (1998-2000)

Growing up on the Castlemilk housing development near
Glasgow, Garry joined Spurs at the age of 15 after
impressing while playing for Celtic Boy's club.
Capped by Scotland at U18 level, Brady's first team debut
came in an FA Cup tie in January 1996 - having overcome an ankle problem that
sidelined him for over a year and won a professional deal.
Unhappy with a lack of first team chances at White Hart Lane, Brady allowed his
contract to run down and moved to Newcastle ahead of the
1998/99 season.
The lure of playing for his hero Kenny Dalglish prompted the
switch, with his £650K fee being set by a tribunal.
By the time of his debut during a 0-1 loss at Everton that November
though, Ruud Gullit had replaced Kenny in the dugout.
Brady never looked like making the grade
and was hampered by further ankle problems restricting his reserve outings
- where looked no more impressive.
Following the arrival of Sir Bobby Robson, the winger was
loaned to second tier Norwich City (along with
Des Hamilton) in 2000.
Following a second stint at Carrow Road, Garry secured his
release from SJP in 2001 and signed for Portsmouth; a
proposed move to China apparently falling through.
After two years at Fratton Park he was again shown
the door, signing for Dundee in 2002 after unsuccessful
trials at both Kilmarnock and Walsall.
Moving on to St.Mirren in 2006 following their ascent to the SPL, Garry
completed a century of appearances for the Buddies in five years, scoring four
times.
Joining
Brechin City in summer 2011, Brady exited Glebe Park two years later.
He later coached at A&M Scotland - a charitable
initiative helping under-privileged youngsters
across Clydeside.

1980 Emre Belozoglu born, Istanbul, Turkey. (2005-08)
 Former Galatasaray midfielder who joined Newcastle
in July 2005 from Inter Milan for an initial
£3.8m, having featured in both Champions League matches against United during the
2002/03 season.
Debuting in a 1-2 home loss to Deportivo la Coruna in the
Intertoto Cup, Emre endeared himself to the Geordie public three months later
when
scoring the winner in a 3-2 win over the mackems at Gallowgate.
Within weeks however, the player was landed with an
international ban and heavy fine, following a
post-match fracas with Swiss players and officials
in Istanbul.
As a Magpie, Emre totted up 14 bookings, one red card, three racism
allegations and countless injuries; occasional mini-revivals showing glimpses of the
obvious talent that remained buried under the attitude.
Emre's time on Tyneside ended in summer 2008;
an elongated return to Turkey with Fenerbahce concluded for a
claimed £5m.
May 2012 saw him make a Bosman switch to Spanish side Atletico
Madrid, but he then returned to Fenerbahce in January 2013.
By 2015 he had joined to fellow Turks Istanbul BB, retitled as Medipol Basaksehir F.K. due to sponsorship.
Emre returned to Fenerbahce for the third time in July 2019, signing a one-year
deal.
He announced his retirement in August 2020 and after a spell
as Interim Coach was appointed as Fenerbahce Sporting
Director.
A switch to Istanbul Basaksehir followed in 2021, ending in September 2023 when
Emre was relieved of his responsibilities.
He then managed Ankaragucu but relegation meant he left
them just seven months later and he was appointed head
coach of Antalyaspor in January 2025.

1988 Mark Cook born, North Shields.
(2005-08)

Academy goalkeeper released by Newcastle
in March 2008, having made four reserve
appearances over the previous three years.
Mark joined Hartlepool United on trial and
signed a permanent deal at Victoria Park, but failed to make a
senior appearance for them before
his release during 2010.
Following a trial with Blyth Spartans, he signed
for Conference side Gateshead before later moving on to
Harrogate Town.
August 2012 saw Mark make a shock switch to
Peruvian side Universitario, following the
appointment of his former 'Pools colleague Nolberto Solano as first team coach.
After two first team starts however, Nobby's exit from Universitario
saw Cook return to England.
He later played for Blyth Spartans, Whitby Town
(trial), Whitley Bay, Durham City, Newcastle Benfield and Dunston UTS.

The newly-promoted Mariners
were in supreme form against a Magpies side who had
scored nine goals in winning their opening two games.
A rotten day for United in general and Hughie Gallacher
in particular was completed when the Scottish
international forward fired his penalty kick wide at
0-2.

Little went
right for United at The Hawthorns, Ossie Park withdrawn
in the 18th minute when the score was a 1-1 with a cut
knee that required stitching.
The opening minute of the second half saw Albion go 4-2
ahead; referee T.Bentley of Manchester inexplicably
ruling that a shot had crossed the line when visiting
goalkeeper Tom Swinburne caught it via a goal post.
To make matters worse, Swinburne was unable to continue
after being kicked in the head earlier and showing signs
of concussion when disputing that dubious goal.
He was replaced by Harry Clifton - who himself was
limping due to an earlier leg injury!

Pavel Srnicek seemingly earned United a
point when he saved John Aldridge's penalty, only for a
late volley from
boyhood Toon fan Steve Vickers to win it for Rovers.
The game exploded into life just before half time when
Liam O'Brien and Lee Clark
scored to overturn the home side's lead.
Having played there since 1939, United
were back at Prenton Park within a month for a crazy ZDS
tie that ended in a penalty shootout after a 6-6 draw.
