Kicking off with a 3-1 home win over Arsenal, the Basques
registered a 4-0 victory at Borussia Dortmund followed by a
3-0 success against Qarabag in Bilbao.
Forward Manex Lozano has netted in all three games to date,
his tally of four one more than the entire Newcastle team
have managed in this competition so far.

Stuart Boam RIP

We're sad to report that former Newcastle central defender
Stuart Boam has died at the age of 77.
Nottinghamshire-born Stuart began his career at Mansfield Town
before making £50K move to a Middlesbrough side managed by Stan
Anderson during 1971.
Appointed club Captain by Jack Charlton, he played over 500 times
for the Ayresome Park club before a transfer to the Magpies in
August 1979.
Making the first of 77 league and cup appearances in a 2-1 home win
over Chelsea, the first of his two Toon goals came soon after, in a
home League Cup tie against the mackems that was infamously settled
on penalties.
Stuart's final game was a 0-0 draw at Oldham Athletic in February
1981 and he returned to Mansfield that summer, later having a brief
period with Hartlepool United.
He would have a further involvement with United during the Jim Smith
era, carry out some scouting missions.
Carabao Cup:

Newcastle's Carabao Cup Quarter Final tie against

Match report
U21s:
EFL Trophy interest over
A 3-1 victory for Huddersfield Town
over Mansfield Town on Tuesday night ended any hopes that Newcastle
U21s had of progressing in this season's EFL Trophy with a
game left.
United's second string were relying on Mansfield avoiding defeat to
have any chance of a top two finish by winning away at Harrogate
Town on Tuesday week.
However three points for the Terriers confirmed their own
qualification and also that of Harrogate, rendering next week's
final fixture meaningless in the process.

The Brazil squad for two kickabouts later this month has been

place for club colleague Joelinton.
For once the travelling shouldn't be problematic for the United
captain, Brazil starting with a friendly against Senegal at the
Emirates Stadium on Saturday November 15th before moving on to face
Tunisia in Lille three days later.
PS: Given that he's yet to kick a ball for the Magpies, the omission
of Yoane Wissa from DR Congo's squad for their World Cup qualifying
playoff is no surprise.
The Leopards play Cameroon in the Moroccan city of Rabat on Thursday
November 13th, with the winners facing either Nigeria or Gabon in

U18s:
Wide boys wing it
Newcastle U18s 3 Everton U18s

United's U18s rose to third in the table on Saturday, thanks a
deserved victory over Everton that ended a run of three successive
losses at this level to the Merseyside Blues.
The visitors were fortunate to escape a third minute attack that
ended with goalkeeper Douglass Lukjanciks clearing an effort from
his defender Lewis Evans from behind the line - something that the
match officials didn't spot.
Newcastle's opening goal wasn't long in arriving though; a neat
exchange of passes between right winger Mo Waddani and Matty Taylor
on the edge of the box setting up the former to convert with a low
shot in the ninth minute.
Magpies captain Jude Cogdon shot against the goal frame midway
through the opening half before Waddani tried to repay the
compliment by playing Taylor in - only for the visiting goalkeeper
to palm the shot away for a corner.
United's left winger Matheos Ferreira doubled the lead four minutes
after the interval before Alex O'Donovan added a third just after
the hour following a scramble in the box.
The Toffees did reduce the arrears on 71 minutes when Kean Wren
swept home a first-time effort from Shea Pita's right wing centre,
but the destination of the points was never in doubt and United
missed a couple of late half-chances to improve their goal
difference.
Team: Dowell, Bloomer, Durrant, Moran, Old, Cogdon, Waddani
(Patterson 87), M.Taylor (Lucas 80), Hutchison (Pinnington 73),
O'Donovan, Ferreira (Seldon 73).
Sub n/u: Anderson.

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.

ST holders have 24
hours to apply, 24 hours to determine success, 48 hours to
buy.
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.
Note that emails from NUFC confirming success may arrive after the purchase
window opens - if you think you qualify because of your points total, just log
on and complete your purchase regardless.
Tickets not bought by successful applicants within 48 hours are offered
to unsuccessful applicants with the next highest loyalty points total. NUFC contact them directly.

Born Or Died:
1874 Joseph Rogers born, Sowe
near Coventry. (1898-1900)
Beginning his career at Macclesfield Town and
Southampton, Newcastle paid Grimsby Town £110 for
outside right Rogers in May 1898 as they prepared for
their maiden season in the First Division.
Making his debut in a 0-0 draw at Stoke the following
September, Joe scored his first Magpies goal shortly
after during his home debut against Aston Villa.
A regular starter at Gallowgate during his first two
seasons at the club, Rogers had made just three
appearances and wasn't close to a recall when United
accepted a bid from Preston North End in early 1901.
Later moves took Joe to Walsall and Crewe Alexandra
and he saw service with the Army Labour Corps during
WW1.
While a Newcastle player, Rogers was part of an FA
squad that played four unofficial internationals in
Germany and Austria during November 1899, featuring in
three of the games and bagging seven goals.
Joining the Grimsby backroom staff, Rogers later
worked in the nearby docks and was living close to
Blundell Park in Cleethorpes when his death was
recorded during 1951.

(1899-1902)

1951 Derek Fazackerley born,
Preston.
(Coach 1990-95)

As a player, Derek was a Blackburn
Rovers stalwart, racking up over 600 appearances
between 1969 and 1987, before moving on to become
Chester City player/coach.
A similar role at York City under manager Bobby Saxton
then followed, before later stints at Bury, non-league
side Darwen and Finnish side Kuusankosken Kumu.
Returning to England in October 1990, Derek was
appointed reserve team boss at SJP by Jim Smith, whom
he'd played for during his Ewood Park days.
Serving both Ossie Ardiles and Kevin Keegan at SJP,
Derek was promoted to first team coaching duties by
the latter before being tempted back to Blackburn in
late 1995 - having kept his home in Lancashire and
commuted back and forwards to Tyneside.
Appointed first team coach at the Premier League
champions under Ray Harford, Faz witnessed the highs
of Champions League involvement but also the misery of
selling top scorer Alan Shearer to Newcastle.
Taking over as caretaker boss with Tony Parkes when
Harford left, Derek exited following the arrival of
Brian Kidd.
A reunion with Kevin Keegan (and
Arthur Cox) at England followed, before spells at Bolton Wanderers and
Barnsley and a call from KK taking him to Manchester
City.
Faz worked for Stuart Pearce and Sven
Goran Erkisson after Keegan's departure but left when Mark Hughes
appeared.
Teaming up with ex-Magpie Lee Clark at Huddersfield
Town soon after, an abortive move to assist Eriksson
at Leicester City in 2010 then followed.
Clark's installation as Birmingham City boss during
June 2012 soon saw Faz appear at St. Andrews along
with Terry McDermott.
Remaining there until February 2014, Derek was out of
football for six months until accepting a post with
Oxford United.
He took over as caretaker manager in 2018 following the
dismissal of Pep Clotet for eight games before Karl
Robinson was appointed, at which point he filled the
role as his number two.
Switching to an advisory role at Oxford in 2020,
Faz also continued as a scout.
1998 Nathan Harker born, Northampton.
(2015-20)

Playing for Cramlington Juniors,
goalkeeper Nathan gained a scholarship at United
in 2015 - along with club colleagues Dan Lowther and
Craig Spooner.
Handed his U18 debut in a 2-3 home defeat to
Middlesbrough in January 2015, Harker began the
2015/16 season on the bench for United's U21s -
also spending a brief spell on loan at Gateshead as
cover.
Nathan's U21 debut came in a 1-1 draw against Brighton
at Crawley during March 2016 and then an unusual
senior bow followed almost exactly two years later.
Arriving as a 90th minute substitute in a friendly
against Royal Antwerp in Alicante, Spain, he played
the third "half" of the 135-minute game.
Loaned out to National League North Blyth Spartans for
the first half of the 2019/20 season, Harker soon lost
his starting place and became a regular substitute -
while still training with his Magpie colleagues.
On trial by the mackems in January 2020 but failing to
win a contract, Nathan was released by United that
Summer.
A another trial stint on wearside soon after was
unsuccessful, before Harker briefly appeared for
Scarborough and then joined Bedlington Terriers.
Later moves took him to Whickham, Marske United and
Stockton Town.

McDonald(7), Seymour(69), McKay(81)
Marshall(11)

Having put Newcastle ahead only for the visitors to quickly equalise, Tom
McDonald missed the target with a penalty kick.
However United regained the lead when Hughie Gallacher's header rebounded off
the underside of the crossbar and Stan Seymour returned it into the net.
Bob McKay then made sure of the victory with a fine individual goal, "the
master craftsman" in the words of one reporter outsmarting three
defenders before beating 'keeper Jack Bell.
1932
Everton (h)
1-2 (1-0)
Division One
J.R.Richardson(30)
Dean(80), Stein(83)
30,877
Lacking Sammy Weaver due to a thigh injury, United had an early scare when
Dixie Dean netted but was promptly ruled offside.
Tommy Lang then set up Jimmy Richardson to shoot the home side ahead, only for
Dean to level with ten minutes remaining.
And the reigning league champions won it soon after, when Dean left a centre for
Jimmy Stein to fire past goalkeeper Mick Burns.
1938
Sheffield Wednesday (a) 2-0 (0-0)
Division Two
Cairns(55,56)
25,358
Without an away win all season, Newcastle left Hillsborough with both points
to ruin Wednesday's 100% home start to the season.

purple patch in front of goal that had brought him ten goals in just five
appearances.

Division One
Taylor(9), Milburn(2-1)
Howe(2), Lofthouse(2-2)

Illness deprived United of both Joe
Harvey and Frank Brennan, but Jackie Milburn was able to play with a plaster
cast on his arm at Burnden Park and hit his 11th goal of the season.
1949 Former Magpies on the goal trail today included Charlie Wayman, who
hit a hat trick in Southampton's 5-0 home victory over Hull City.
Geordie Stobbart meanwhile went one better, netting four times in just 10
minutes for Luton Town during a 5-2 win against Blackburn Rovers.

2-4 (1-2)
Division One
White(8,61)
Tindall(26,44,88),
Brabrook(70)
30,489
Debut at centre half for Bill Thompson. Legend has it that after the match
United directors made Jimmy Greaves a substantial offer to come to SJP, but he
preferred to try his luck in Italy.
All six goals in this game were headers, Surrey cricketer Ron Tindall with three
for the hosts.
1966
Manchester City (a)
1-1 (0-1)
Division One
Robson(60pen)
Young(6)
26,137
Former Magpie George Heslop punched away a goalbound shot from Albert
Bennett, Pop Robson netting the resultant penalty to earn United a point.
Recent signing Wyn Davies came close to grabbing a winner for United,
hitting the crossbar with a header. And there was a rare start for winger Geoff
Allen, playing his first game in the top flight.
1977
Bristol City (h)
1-1 (0-0)
Division One
Martin(74)
Gilles(79)

Division Two
Keegan(23), Mills(88), Wharton(90)
Wilson(12,60)
31,660
Malcolm Macdonald's Cottagers side were looking for a third successive SJP
win but one of the most entertaining games of the promotion season ended in a
home win.
That hardly looked likely with just three minutes to play, but substitute David
Mills drove in at the Leazes End to level the scores, before Kenny Wharton
forced the ball over the line in added time, amid great celebrations.

Queens Park Rangers (a) 0-3 (0-2)
Division One
Maddix(11), Allen(30), Falco(84)
11,013
A second successive reverse for caretaker manager Colin Suggett - and he
couldn't even blame the infamous plastic pitch at Loftus Road, which had been
ripped up the previous April.
Future Mags Kevin Brock, Wayne Fereday and Gavin Maguire all appeared for the
home side, who were managed by Jim Smith. Within a month he'd be installed as
Newcastle boss.
1994
Queens Park Rangers (h) 2-1 (2-0)
Premier League
Kitson(20), Beardsley(42)
Dichio(60)
34,278
After the midweek UEFA Cup exit in Bilbao, United enjoyed some home comforts
thanks to goals from a new-look front pairing.
Peter Beardsley's exquisite bicycle kick put the Magpies ahead after he had
jumped over Paul Kitson's shot - as the recent arrival struck his first league
goal for the club.
Rangers looked a better prospect in the second half when Gerry Francis paired
Danny Dichio with Les Ferdinand.

Nilis(32), De Bilde(90)

Belgian forwards Luc Nilis & Gilles De Bilde netted on a night when
injury saw Toon boss Kenny Dalglish unable to name an orthodox striker in his
starting XI.
Forward duties were shared between messrs Barnes, Ketsbaia, Tomasson and
Gillespie - with no striking options on the bench.
2003 An inexperienced reserve side came unstuck at an almost-deserted
St.Andrews, going down 1-3 to a Birmingham side that included seven first-teamers.
Andy Ferrell got United's goal with his side already two down.

Emre(78)

United made it four straight victories in all competitions and for the
second home game were grateful to their Turkish midfielder for the winner.
Emre's first Newcastle strike had won the derby and Steve Bruce's City side were
dispatched thanks to his 20-yarder at the Gallowgate End.

2008 Quotes
from Keith Harris of Seymour Pierce (not the bloke with the green duck),
handling the sale of Newcastle United:
"We have two very serious contenders to
buy it. We have had Nigerians that don't exist, and South Africans told by the
media they were bidding.
"The truth of the matter is that the phone has rung several times,
frequently because I have made the calls - but they have reacted to them.
"It is not easy doing anything in this
world whether it's selling a football club or anything else, but it will come
through.
"It's not been a question of dropping the price from that level. It's been
a question of making sure people have the absolute facts.
"Mike wants to get a maximum price but
he also wants to make sure that it goes into hands that will look after it and
nurture it for the future."
2011
Everton (h)
2-1 (2-1)
Premier League
og(Heitinga)(12), R.Taylor(29)
Rodwell(45+2)
50,671
A
third successive league win propelled United to the dizzy heights of second.
A first home win over the Toffees in three attempts came through John Heitinga's
early own goal and a spectacular dipping effort from boyhood Liverpool fan Ryan
Taylor in this Sky-televised lunchtime kick-off.
Sloppy defending allowed future mackem Jack Rodwell to net but a solid second
half display from Fabricio Coloccini and Steven Taylor (the latter clad in a
protective face mask) helped claim a deserved victory.
