U21s:
Capital victory for stiffs

Crystal Palace U21s  0  Newcastle U21s  2


Newcastle U21s deservedly registered their first PL2 success of the season on Monday night, scoring a goal in each half to see off the challenge of Crystal Palace at the Gander Green Lane home of National League Sutton United.
 
Goals from Anthony Munda and Joe Brayson gave Adam Lawrence his maiden win in that competition as Magpies coach - and only the efforts of Eagles custodian Harry Lee prevented a greater margin of victory.

The visitors had their first chance after quarter of an hour when Alex Murphy broke down the left and Park Seung-soo took the ball on and shot but the 'keeper dealt with it.

That duo then combined again to better effect in the 20th minute, Murphy overlapping before providing a precise cross that Munda headed home.

Munda's through ball then gave Brayson a shooting chance from inside the box 15 minutes later, but he was unable to get his shot off cleanly and Lee retrieved the ball.

Brayson shot agonisingly wide, Alfie Harrison's rocket was just off-target and Lee denied Munda in quick succession as the black and whites looked to turn their dominance into further goals before the half time interval.

There were no changes at the break but the hosts began with just ten players, until Asher Agbinone belatedly appeared on the field 30 seconds after the kick-off.

In contrast to their lethargic first half display, Palace significantly upped the pace and began to threaten Max Thompson's goal for a time.

However Sean Neave's strong run and shot just before the hour mark gave notice that the visitors remained a threat and he assisted the second goal eight minutes later, neatly setting up Brayson to find the far corner of the net with a perfectly-executed low effort.

The Magpies almost added a third in the 70th minute but Lee denied Park after he was played in by Alfie Harrison and several other chances went begging in the closing stages.

2-0 it stayed though, an impressive collective display giving Lawrence his third consecutive win in all competitions and a first three point return in PL2 for United in nine attempts.

This was the first of two league outings this week for the U21s, who face Ipswich Town at Portman Road on Friday.

Team: M.Thompson, Shahar, A.Murphy (McArthur 74), Heffernan, Pivas, Bailey, Al.Harrison, Munda, Brayson (Wooster 81), Neave (C.Thompson 85), Seung-soo (Charlton 81). Sub n/u: Taylor.

Carabao Cup:
Spurs (h)

United's third home game in a third different competition during a nine day period sees them receive Spurs in the Carabao Cup this Wednesday.

It's an 8pm kick-off, live on ITV1 and Sky Sports and if the scores are level after 90 minutes, the tie will be settled by a penalty shootout.

The winners will take their place in the quarter final draw, which will be staged after the full time whistle.

Hat sellers Football Bobbles will have a stall outside the Trent House pub from 5.30pm. Card payments accepted.

ST holders on the Carabao Cup scheme gain access by using their season ticket as if it were a Premier League game.

The latest Fan Advisory Board minutes include the following line, suggesting that this change is permanent:

"For future domestic cup fixtures, tickets will be uploaded directly to season cards."

Carabao Cup scheme members whose initial payment failed or who were relocated from their usual seat for this tie  should have received an individual ticket.

THFC:
Yves Bissouma, Ben Davies, Radu Dragusin, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Koto Takai are all out, with Cristian Romero, Dominic Solanke and Destiny Udogie unlikely to feature on Tyneside. 

Entering at the Third Round stage due to their European involvement like Newcastle, Spurs made it to the last 16 thanks to a routine 3-0 home win over Doncaster Rovers.

The two sides last faced each other in pre-season, a Harvey Barnes goal giving United a 1-1 draw in the South Korean capital, Seoul on the night that Son Heung-Min ended his decade-long association with the Cockerels.

While Newcastle enjoy home comforts for the third successive game, the visitors complete a trio of away fixtures: drawing 0-0 in Monaco in the Champions League on Thursday and winning 3-0 at Everton in the Premier League on Sunday before heading to the North East. 

Spurs will be backed by 4,900 fans - the same allocation that Bradford City received in the last round. On that basis expect temporary post-match closures of the walking route from the Leazes End onto Barrack Road for home fans, as was the case against the Bantams.

Referee: Chris Kavanagh - second Newcastle game of the season so far for the Lancashire whistler, following the 1-0 Premier League home success against Wolves.

U18s:
Late joy for youngsters

Newcastle U18s  2  Nottingham Forest U18s  1

A shot from Alex O'Donovan in the fourth minute of time added on got Newcastles U18s back to winning ways at Little Benton on Saturday.

The young Magpies led at the interval through Jude Cogdon and had looked set for the three points until Spencer Sutton's leveller in the first minute of time added on.

However United weren't to be denied, O'Donovan's first league goal of the season enough to halt a three game losing run for the U18s in league and cup matches.

Team: Dowell, Bloomer, Durrant, Moran, Old, Miley (Gilligan 82), Waddani (Ferreira 64), O’Donovan, Hutchison, Cogdon (Taylor 73), Seldon (Pinnington 62). Sub n/u: Anderson.

Newcastle's Lesecond Yeutembip is in the England U16 squad for the Football Federations Cup in Turkey.

The 15 year-old defender has been called up for games in Antalya against Wales on Thursday, hosts Turkey on Saturday and Portugal on Tuesday week.

Meanwhile the England U17 squad for a trio of European Championship qualifiers has been announced, with United represented by George Mair and Sam Alabi.

They'll face hosts Scotland, Lithuania and Sweden.

Old boy:
Rafa returns

Former Newcastle boss Rafa Benitez is back in football, taking charge of Greek Super League side Panathinaikos.

Now 65, Rafa has been filling in his time as a football pundit since his most recent managerial role at Spanish side Celta Vigo came to an end in March 2024.

And he made a winning start on Sunday, watching his new charges record a 2-0 home with over Atsteras Tripolis.


Premier League:
TV times (incomplete)

October 15th saw the Premier League announce some changes to the December fixture list, with three Newcastle games rescheduled for TV as follows:

Although fixtures up to the end of January were due that day, only those up to Mon 22.12.2025 actually appeared.

There's no word on when the remainder will be released, leaving seven Newcastle games still subject to change:

The initial fixture release in June didn't list any games on either December 26th or January 1st, but the PL's only "blackout" days are December 24th and 25th.

On that basis, some PL fixtures are liable to be played on both Boxing Day and New Years Day.

Leeds United U17s  0  Newcastle U17s  2

Wednesday saw Newcastle U17s complete their group stage fixtures in this season's Premier League Cup, victory at Thorp Arch giving them three wins from as many games.

Mason Miley shot his side ahead with a first-time effort from inside the centre circle. Substitute Alfie Seldon then set up Alfie Hutchison for the clinching second goal; an excellent defensive performance resulting in a clean sheet.

Team: Dowell, Patterson, Moran, Old, Durrant, Goodbrand, M.Miley, Gilligan, Pinnington, Hutchison, Ferreira.

Earlier in the group stage, the youngsters won 2-1 at Boro, thanks to late goals from Hutchison and Seldon.

A 5-3 home conquest of the mackems followed, Seldon's brace adding to Jake Durrant's opener and two from Jack Patterson.

This is the second successive season that Newcastle have reached the last eight of this competition, exiting at the hands of Manchester United in 2024.

Also through to the quarter finals are Blackburn Rovers, Leicester City, Liverpool, Southampton and West Bromwich Albion, with the other two group winners known when the final fixtures take place later this month.

Update:
Sandro signs on

Wednesday brought media reports that the Sandro Tonali contract extension said to have been a priority for new Sporting Director Ross Wilson was in fact done and dusted while one of his predecessors was still in post.

The 25 year-old Italian midfielder signed a five year deal following his capture from AC Milan in 2023 and is now revealed to have put pen to paper on an extension while serving his suspension for breaking betting regulations.

Tonali is now said to be under contract at SJP until 2029, with a further 12 month extension exercisable at the club's discretion - negotiations for both completed before Dan Ashworth left the Magpies in early 2024.

Out now from Pitch Publishing is the definitive biography of United icon, Bill McCracken, penned by renowned Magpies club historian Paul Joannou.

The Belfast-born defender served Newcastle for 15 seasons, winning three titles and one FA Cup while generating headlines worldwide for his revolutionary offside tactic.

Bill's life in football then extended for over half a century in managerial and scouting roles, included that of transfer advisor to Magpies supremo Stan Seymour in the 1950s.

On This Day in History
27th October


Born Or Died:

1942 Death of Jack Dowsey, 37.
(1924-26)

1947 Dennis Martin born, Edinburgh, Scotland. (1977-78)

Winger signed from Kettering Town by West Bromwich Albion, later joining an upwardly mobile Carlisle United - where he scored their last goal in Division One.

Martin arrived on Tyneside in October 1977 at a cost of £40K - one of the few moves soon-to-be-ex-boss Richard Dinnis was able to make in the transfer market.

A goal on his debut at Manchester United couldn't prevent his new side from losing 3-2 and his first home start against Bristol City saw another goal in a 1-1 draw.

However with the team anchored to the bottom of the league, Martin dropped out of the picture after Christmas and by March 1978 had been left for Mansfield Town.

Finishing his playing career at Kettering via a spell out in Denmark with Fremad Amager (near Copenhagen). He then settled in Northamptonshire, working in insurance.

1962 Death of Willie Bertram, 64.
(1920-21)

1972 Lee Clark born, Wallsend.
(1988-97 & 2005-06, Coach 2006-07)

A product of Wallsend Boys Club, midfielder Lee captained England at schoolboy and youth level, netting a hat trick for the former in a 4-1 win over Italy at Wembley in May 1988. 

Making his reserve team bow aged 15, Clark was handed a senior debut by United boss Jim Smith at Bristol City in September 1990, scoring his first goal at Wolves two months later.

Regularly watched by a Liverpool scout in his early games, Clark blossomed as one of a crop of locals fielded by manager Ossie Ardiles during his brief SJP reign.

The first of Lee's 11 England U21 caps came against Czechoslovakia in May 1992 alongside future Magpie colleagues Andy Cole and Paul Kitson.

Part of the 1992/93 promotion winning side, Clark was a valuable squad member in the Premier League, although a perceived lack of scoring prowess saw him unkindly christened "jigsaw" in the United dressing room (ie goes to pieces in the box).

And although he scored the first goal of Kenny Dalglish's toon tenure (in an FA Cup replay win over Charlton at SJP), Clark wasn't favoured by the Scot and joined the mackems for £2.75m - their record signing at the time.

Helping them return to the top flight in his second season there, Lee's trip to support Newcastle at Wembley Stadium in May 1999 was memorable - and not for the result, a 0-2 loss for the Toon.

Donning a T-shirt emblazoned with the motto "sad mackem b*stards" and then posing for photos made a return to wearside unwise and he joined Fulham in a £3m deal.

In almost six years as a Cottager, Clark was a popular figure on and off the field, but was afflicted with Achilles injuries in both legs, which restricted his availability.

Released by Fulham in 2005, Lee was then spotted at Newcastle's pre-season training sessions, later rejoining the Magpies on a month-to-month contract. 

Regaining fitness, he returned to the side and added one more goal to his Toon tally - a late leveller at home to Boro that granted Graeme Souness a stay of execution. 

What would be his final appearance came from the bench in the closing stages of a 1-0 home win over Chelsea during May 2006.

Remaining at the club as part of Glenn Roeder's coaching staff, Clark replaced Tommy Craig as reserve boss when Roeder was appointed permanently.

Retaining that role under successor Sam Allardyce, Clark was reunited with Glenn Roeder in November 2007, becoming his assistant at Norwich City.

After just over a year at Carrow Road however, Clark became a manager in his own right with Huddersfield Town - enlisting Terry McDermott to assist him.

2009 saw his Terriers side face Newcastle in a home friendly, just weeks before the two sides met again at SJP in the League Cup - something that obviously gave him great pride, although attempting to downplay matters to the press.

The 2010/11 season saw Clark guide Town to third in the league and victory over Bournemouth to reach the play-off final, losing 0-3 to Peterborough at Old Trafford.

However, he continued their unbeaten league record into the following campaign and celebrated his 39th birthday in the week that the Terriers made it 40 games.

That run eventually spanned 43 games but the Terriers hierarchy were nervous about another promotion campaign faltering, after Clark had convinced them not to sell top scorer Jordan Rhodes.

A dispute with his Chairman saw Lee exit in early 2012 but he was soon back in football, replacing Chris Hughton at Birmingham City when he joined Norwich City.

Bringing in familiar faces Terry McDermott, Steve Watson and Derek Fazackerley to assist him at St. Andrew's, Lee persuaded Peter Lovenkrands to join following his release by Newcastle that summer.

Adding SJP old boy Darren Ambrose, Clark returned to his former club to loan Shane Ferguson, City ultimately ending up 12th.

Fergie then returned to City the following season as Lee survived Birmingham's poorest start to a season in 25 years.

City avoided relegation in dramatic fashion but Clark was sacked in October 2014 with Blues once again in relegation trouble.

He then surprisingly swapped one disaster area for another, joining Championship crisis club, Blackpool. That ended in an inevitable relegation for the Seasiders and Clark's exit from Bloomfield Road in May 2015.

Appointed Kilmarnock manager in February 2016, he led them to play-off success over Falkirk, preserving their SPL status.

A year to the day that he arrived at Rugby Park though Clark was gone, leaving to take charge of League One strugglers Bury.

Three days after his 45th birthday his time at Gigg Lane was over, sacked after four straight defeats.

Appointed manager of Blyth Spartans in June 2019, he stood down the following March.

Later becoming Director of Football at ambitious local league side Newcastle Blue Star, Clark also had a brief stint managing Sudanese side Al-Merreikh SC.

Clark's son Bobby followed in his footsteps by joining United's Academy, but was tempted by Liverpool in 2021 aged 16 - making his Premier League bow a year later.

He signed for Red Bull Salzburg in 2024 but by 2025 was back in England, on loan at Derby County.

1982 Carl Heiniger born, Belfast, Northern Ireland. (1997-2002)

Northern Ireland youth international midfielder Carl was with Manchester United from the age of six until 14 before making the move to Tyneside.

Playing junior and reserve level football for Newcastle, Heiniger was released in 2002 and had a trial with Bradford City before enrolling at Bath Unversity.

Combining his studies with playing for Team Bath, Carl and his side gained national recognition as the first University team since Oxford University in 1880 to reach the First Round Proper of the FA Cup.

Bath lost 2-4 to Mansfield Town in a tie shown live by the BBC in November 2002, Heiniger netting  with a memorable strike.

A move to German side Hessen Kassel didn't work out and after a trial with Darlington, Heiny went on a grand tour of Northern non-league clubs, including: Bishop Auckland, Durham City, Seaham Red Star, Newcastle Benfield, Newcastle Blue Star, Workington, Barrow, Lancaster City, Gateshead, York City, Whitby Town, Team Northumbria, Dunston Fed, Consett, Nissan, Morpeth Town and Durham City.

Persistent injury problems forced Carl out of football, but he can still be found playing golf at Beamish Park.

1986 Matty Pattison born, Johannesburg, South Africa. (2004-08)

Midfielder who joined Newcastle's Academy at the age of 14 and impressed at youth an reserve level, despite a lack of pace. 

His first team debut came in as sub in a pre -season friendly at Celtic in 2004, with our squad weakened by an eye infection - just days before, he'd been on the bench for the reserves at Shildon.

However, he then suffered a cruciate injury in training and missed most of that season, before returning to fitness - and then falling victim to the same injury in a youth game.

Another period of rehab followed before he made his senior competitive debut at home to Everton as a late sub, in February 2006.

The United manager in charge that day was Glenn Roeder, and after being appointed as Norwich City manager, he returned to SJP and took 'Patter' on loan in December 2007.

A move to Carrow Road was made permanent the following year and became a Canaries regular, scoring his first senior goal against Nottingham Forest in November 2008.

Matty had made the headlines earlier that year when arrested for drink driving, reportedly waking up after a heavy night and believing he was late for training, jumping into his car while still over the limit.

Unfortunately it was Sunday morning - and although City weren't training, the Norfolk Constabulary were on duty and spotted the player driving erratically.

August 2009 saw the player leave Norwich, moving to Mamelodi Sundowns in his native South Africa, for an undisclosed fee.

When questioned about the move, Matty admitted that he was motivated by the chance of being selected for South African World Cup squad and believed he'd stand a better chance as a home-based player.

However, that failed to happen and despite one international call-up - against Swaziland in January 2010 - Pattison failed to make it into his nation's Finals squad.

By early 2012 Matty was looking for a new club and was reported to be on trial with Dynamo Moscow before turning up at Leeds United and netting during a practice game against Newcastle Reserves.

No contract offer was forthcoming at Elland Road however and after a further stint at Hibernian, Pattison returned to South Africa and subsequently appeared for both Santos and Bidvest Wits.

A further attempt at restarting his career in England then saw Matty appear for MK Dons on trial in 2014. That didn't work out but by October he'd teamed up with former SJP colleagues Adam Bartlett, Craig Baxter, Carl Finnigan and Lewis Guy at Gateshead. 

Failing to inspire a promotion push from the Tynesiders, Pattison left the International Stadium in the summer of 2016 and was signed by Blyth Spartans.

Joining South Shields in May 2017, he later played and coached at Whickham becoming Gateshead's Academy coach for a time before resuming backroom duties at South Shields.

A third away win in just five Premier League games for Sir Bobby's side, who moved up to sixth spot as a result.

Former Magpie Pistone was in the Toffees starting XI, with Walter Smith turning to subs Duncan Ferguson and Paul Gascoigne in a vain attempt to find a breakthrough.

Goals from Jermaine Jenas 
& Shola Ameobi secured our passage into Round Four of the Carling Cup at a blustery SJP.

Former Magpie Darren Huckerby netted from the spot after the break but a defence featuring debutant Ronny Johnsen at the age of 35 years and 4 months held firm.

After the positive feeling that had been engendered by the midweek 3-1 home victory over Spurs, United failed to build on that result against the Royals, who had shown some recent vulnerability.

This was the game when the relationship between boss Sam Allardyce and Toon fans irretrievably broke down.

Following the game, the club released this unambiguous statement: "Chris (Hughton) is our manager, and he'll remain our manager, and we will renegotiate his contract at the end of the year."

We're not sure which year they were referring to, but it all ended for Chris less than six weeks later, following a 1-3 loss at West Brom.

A stuttering display from his side saw Alan Pardew become the first Newcastle manager since Joe Harvey in 1967 to endure back to back Tyne-wear derby defeats.

Steven Fletcher headed home after an early corner wasn't dealt with, but after Mathieu Debuchy levelled with his first goal for the club, disaster seemed to have been averted.

However, a
disputed free kick on the halfway line proved to our undoing, future Magpie Jack Colback involved in the move that saw loan striker Fabio Borini beat Tim Krul to give Gus Poyet his first win.

United moved off the bottom of the table thanks to a clean sheet at St. Mary's, but there were few positives to take from the 646 mile round trip to Hampshire.

Martin Dubravka made some vital stops to keep his goal intact but his counterpart Alex McCarthy had nothing to save, United failing to get a single effort on target.

Sean Longstaff became the third Magpie to be sent off at SJP against Wolves in as many games, as his side almost turned victory into defeat.

A decent first half display was capped by a header from Jamaal Lascelles but a Wolves side suffering a hangover from Europa League exertions duly took advantage of our laxity.

Martin Dubravka's ill-advised flap allowed Casto Otto to volley in, before Longstaff was dismissed for a high challenge on Ruben Neves - whose histrionics swayed referee Kevin Friend into brandishin

Newcastle's winless Premier League run extended to five games after a defeat at Stamford Bridge due in part to lax defending by the visitors.

Cole Palmer's sublime pass began the move that led to Chelsea's opener, before an equally admirable team move ended with Alexander Isak scoring his second goal of the season.

However Palmer struck just 75 seconds after the interval and United were unable to find a second leveller - a VAR review in the closing seconds ruling out a Chelsea penalty that had been awarded onfield.
