U21 derby this Monday
Pointless after their opening three PL2 matches, Newcastle U21s
return to action on Monday, when they face their local rivals at SJP
in a 7pm kick-off.
Season ticket holders can gain access to the East Stand free of
charge by showing their ticket at the turnstiles.
NUFC advise ST holders to pre-book seats online (change
price category to ST holder during the online purchase process to obtain one free ticket).
Advance tickets are also on sale now from the online NUFC box office, priced at £5 adults and £2
seniors/juniors.
FAO anyone travelling by Metro, the line between St James and
Monkseaton is closed on Monday. Service 900 bus replacements
running, with departures from Stop K on Newgate Street.
This is the first reserve game at SJP since a 7-1 PL2 win over
Reading in April 2025, while the last U21 derby fixture played at
Gallowgate was a 1-1 draw in October 2022.
The red and whites have played five times in PL2 so far, collecting
10 points.
PS: Tickets are on sale for the U21s EFL Trophy tie at
Rotherham United on Tuesday November 3rd at 7pm.
The away section is in Block ES6, available
here
Prices: £12 adults, £8 over 65s/18-21s, £3 14-17s, £1 U14s.
(All prices except the U14s increase by £2 on matchday)
Update:
Another 'keeper on loan
Magpies custodian Aidan Harris has made a further
temporary departure from SJP, following last season's posting to
Irish Premiership club Coleraine.
The 19 year-old wearsider has joined National League North side
Hebburn Town on an initial month-long loan and is in line for
his debut on Saturday away at Telford United.
Old boys:
Woody chopped
League One side Bromley have announced the departure of manager
Andy Woodman, following a 0-3 home defeat by Leicester City
in midweek.
The former Newcastle coach had been in charge of the Ravens since
2021, guiding them to an FA Trophy Final success and two promotions.
Other former Magpies making managerial changes this week include Duncan Ferguson
taking charge of Irish Premiership club Glentoran and Steve Watson
leaving his post as manager of National League North
club Darlington.
U17s:
Youngsters advance
A 2-1 win over Middlesbrough on Tuesday was enough for
Newcastle U17s to win their group and progress to the quarter
finals of the Premier League Cup.
Jack Skelton and Muawiya Ghanem were on target for the young
Magpies, who join Blackburn Rovers, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Fulham,
Manchester City, Manchester United and Spurs in the last eight of
the competition.

Admission is free, but advance ticket booking is required and can
be done online

Fender:
SJP
confirmed
Local chanter Sam Fender has announced dates at SJP next
year, on Thu 03.06.2027 and Sat 05.06.2027.
There's a pre-sale option open to those ordering the new Sam Fender
record before 9am on Mon 26.10.2026 - that pre-sale is at 9.30am on
Wed 28.10.2026.
A pre-sale for NUFC ST holders and members registered by 5pm on Tue
26.10.2026 is at 9.30am on Thu 29.10.2026.
Public sale then begins at 9.30am on Fri 30.10.2026.
Fender entertained sell-out crowds at two SJP shows in 2023, returning
there
for a trio of concerts in 2025.
Irish band Fontaines DC have already announced a date at Gallowgate
on July 1st 2027.
Bubble match confirmed:
On the buses
From NUFC, Monday:
Sunderland supporters attending the Tyne-Wear derby at St.
James’ Park on Sunday 6th December 2026 will be required to travel
to and from Wearside on official club coaches following a
recommendation by the stadium’s independent Safety Advisory Group
(SAG).
The recommendation follows advice from Northumbria Police to
the SAG, which is chaired by Newcastle City Council as the
Certifying Authority for St. James’ Park.
Both clubs were invited to attend a recent SAG meeting to hear
submissions made by Northumbria Police, and senior Newcastle United
staff have since met with senior officers from the force to better
understand the reasons behind the recommendation.
We know that the vast majority of fans from both clubs are
impeccably behaved and add a great deal to the occasion, and we also
acknowledge that this step has been taken as an additional measure
to ensure the safety of all supporters, staff, the authorities and
the wider public.
We will now work closely with Sunderland AFC, Northumbria
Police, Newcastle City Council and partner agencies to accommodate
this recommendation and to ensure the match is a safe experience for
everyone who attends.
This recommendation does not impact away supporter travel for
the return fixture at the Stadium of Light in May 2027, and any
relevant recommendations will be made by the local Safety Advisory
Group closer to that time.
From SAFC, Monday:
Following a decision by Newcastle’s Safety Advisory Group (SAG),
Sunderland AFC can confirm that supporters attending our PL away
fixture against Newcastle United will be required to travel by
organised coach.
Throughout this process, the Club has engaged with the
relevant authorities, setting out clearly our concerns about the
impact of a full bubble operation on Sunderland supporters,
particularly the restrictions on individual travel choices and the
additional inconvenience for supporters.
Whilst we do not agree with the decision that has been
reached, we recognise that this decision will disappoint many
supporters who would prefer to make their own travel arrangements.
While respecting the SAG’s decision, we have sought clarity on the
revised risk assessment and requested transparency as to how the end
decision has been made.
Sunderland AFC will receive an allocation of 2,200 tickets*.
* that's down from 2,528 last season, with the NUFC allocation
for the return game in 2025/26 matching that.
The Chronicle have since claimed that the allocation is actually
unchanged at 2,528 not 2,200 as SAFC wrote.
Update:
Alfie
signs up
Midfielder Alfie Seldon marked his
17th birthday on Tuesday by putting pen to paper on a first
professional contract with Newcastle United.
The wearside-born teenager first appeared at U18 level aged 15, graduating
to the club's U21 side earlier this season.
Seldon joins Sam Alabi, Oliver Goodbrand, Alfie Hutchison, George Mair, Isaac
Moran, Mason Miley, Michael Mills and Kyran Thompson in signing
first pro deals at SJP in 2026.
Update:
Shaka's back
Marking 30 years of Show
Racism the Red Card, the Tyneside-based organisation are
staging a special event in the city next month with some familiar
faces involved.
Former Magpies Shaka Hislop and
John Beresford and fellow anti-racism campaigner Clarke Carlisle
will speak at what is billed as an "inspiring evening of talks,
music and unity" in conjunction with the Newcastle United
Supporters Trust.
Venue is World Headquarters in Carliol Square (NE1 6UF) from
7pm on Sunday week, 1st November.
Tickets available online
here for £10 (£15 on the door).

report
Carabao Cup:
Everton (a)
Newcastle are in Carabao Cup Fourth Round action on Thursday
against the Toffees at Hill Dickinson Stadium -
their second-ever visit, following a 4-1 Premier League success
there last season.
It's a 7.45pm kick-off, live on Sky Sports+. If
the scores are level after 90 minutes the tie will be settled on
penalties.
The visitors will be backed by 7,732 fans - United's largest
away support since 7,800 were at Manchester City for the FA Cup
Sixth Round in March 2024 (excepting Wembley).
This will be only the second time that
these two sides have
met in the League Cup; the first seeing them share six goals at Gallowgate in
the Third
Round during 2002 before Everton advanced in the penalty shootout
that followed.
This pairing means that the Toffees and Magpies will face each other at
least four times this season: Everton winning a pre-season kickabout
3-1 at Murrayfield in August.
Following the Premier League home meeting in November, United return to merseyside
in the PL next February.

ST holders have 24
hours to apply for away tickets, 24 hours for success to be determined, then 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.
Regardless of the loyalty point level a game sells out at, to purchase a
ticket you must have applied in the initial 24 hour window.
The initial 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 usually get two hours head start.
NB: emails from NUFC confirming success may arrive after the purchase
window opens - if you think you qualify due to your points total, log
on and complete your purchase.
Tickets not bought by successful applicants are then offered to unsuccessful applicants with a
reduced loyalty points total - new applications cannot be made at this time.
Only those within the new loyalty point total are
eligible to buy - even if you had more, your purchase window has already
closed.
PL away ticket prices are unchanged at £30 for the 2026/27
and 2027/28 seasons.

Born Or Died:
1915 Jimmy Gordon
born, Fauldhouse, Scotland. (1935-45)
Working as a miner and playing for junior side Wishaw
before joining United, wing half Jimmy debuted in a 2-3 defeat at
Oldham during April 1935.
However his time at SJP was blighted
by both a broken leg and the outbreak of WWII, after which it was
thought by the club's directors that the 30 year-old had nothing to
offer the Division Two side.
Released before the resumption of league football, Jimmy joined
Middlesbrough and went on to become their club captain, playing on
until the age of 38.
Joining the Ayresome Park coaching staff following his retirement,
Jimmy later moved on to a similar post at Blackburn Rovers and in
1969, was persuaded to join Derby County by ex-Boro colleague
Brian Clough.
He helped the Rams to title success and later followed Clough to both
Leeds United and Nottingham Forest, working alongside Clough and Peter
Taylor throughout a golden age of trophy success at the City Ground.
Given the accolade of leading the Forest side out at Wembley in the
1980 League Cup Final, Jimmy retired the following year.
Living in Derby, he was sadly to suffer from Alzheimer's disease in
the final years of his life and passed away in August 1996.
2009 saw Brian Clough's brief flirtation with Elland Road dramatised
in the feature film, "The Damned United", featuring
Wearside -born actor Maurice Roeves as Jimmy.
1930
Alan Monkhouse born, Stockton-on-Tees. (1953-56)
Centre forward
who began his career with Thornaby, joining Millwall in 1949 and going
on to score 23 goals in 69 appearances for the Third Division (South)
Lions.
Transferred to Newcastle at a cost of £11,500 in October 1953,
Alan made his United debut in a 4-0 home victory over Cardiff
City the following month.
Grabbing a hat trick at SJP during a 4-1 win over Sheffield United the
following March, Monkhouse then played his part in our FA Cup-winning
campaign in 1955.
Recalled in place of Vic Keeble, Alan's two goals helped United
overcome Nottingham Forest in a Fifth Round second
replay and the team went on to lift the trophy.
Alan however returned to the reserves, having been unable to keep
retain a first XI shirt in those pre-substitute days.
Moving on to York City in 1956, Alan ended his playing career with South Shields.
He died in
1992.
 1998 Ben Kitchen born, Newcastle.
(2015-18)
Younger brother of Magpies reserve Alex and son of
former Leyton Orient and Gateshead defender Sam, full back Ben was
just six when he first joined United's Academy.
Debuting at U18 level in a 0-0 draw away to Stoke City in August 2015,
Kitchen's reserve team bow came in a 0-3 loss to Fulham at Whitley
Park the following February.
An U18 regular during the 2016/17 campaign, Kitchen returned to the
reserve side for the following season and acquired squad number 56 for
CheckaTrade Trophy fixtures.
However, he left during June 2018 as part of a mass
clearout of Newcastle's development squad, signing a contract at
Croatian side NK Novigrad alongside fellow Magpies discard Kurtis
Russell.
After a year overseas, Ben returned to the UK with
Whitby Town following a successful trial. However he'd left by 2020.

Campbell(30), Aitken(85)

Workmen were busy constructing a new
stand at St.James' Park until the morning of the game and it was part-finished
to give spectators a vantage point.
Newcastle reportedly wore light blue shirts and the visitors were in black and
white.
Referee F.Bye (Sheffield) mistakenly blew for full time on 75 minutes and began
to leave the field along with several visiting players, before his linesmen
pointed out the error.

influential.

Barrett(11pen)
The Magpies lined up with a front pairing of Albert
Stubbins and Jackie Milburn but were beaten by a penalty from
guest player Jim Barrett of West Ham.
A week later they lost the return fixture by the odd
goal in nine, with Stubbins grabbing a hat-trick and
Milburn also on target

There was a rare outing for Magpies reserve Chris Guthrie, while Keith
Dyson was missing from the side and moved to Blackpool within days in
part/exchange for Tony Green.

1st leg
Macdonald(60)

the Magpies.

League Cup 3rd Round
Beardsley(25pen)
36,314
Three days after the epic 5-0 win over Manchester
United, Newcastle enjoyed a rather lower profile victory
against a team from the North West.
The Latics sported a maroon and blue hooped change kit
that was remarkably reminiscent of our effort from the
previous season.
2000 Ex-Mag hero Les Ferdinand made a frank admission to his involvement in
one of the great unsolved crimes of the century.
Yes, Big Les aided and abetted in the wanton destruction of the Blue Peter
sunken garden, along with a certain Dennis Wise.

Juventus (Italy) (h)
1-0 (0-0)
Champions League Group Match 4
Griffin(62)
48,370
Pointless going into this fourth group stage tie, victory
for Newcastle gave themselves a mathematical chance of
qualification - although no side had ever accomplished that feat from our
position.
A grey-clad United took the lead when Andy Griffin's shot-cum-cross went in off 'keeper Gianluigi
Buffon and some staunch defending kept the Serie A side at
bay.
Juve coach Marcello Lippi said afterwards:
"When you go one goal behind in front of a crowd
like this one, it's not easy to come back."

Lawrence(35), Elliott(41)
52,302
It was more relief than euphoria that greeted the final
whistle but three points and three goals against the
unwashed at SJP were massively enjoyable. An amazing seven and half
minute spell in the first half saw four goals
shared, with the hosts twice throwing away the lead.
United's second looked to go in off SJP old boy Stephen Caldwell, but Shola
Ameobi was later officially credited with it.
The winner was an Emre free-kick to
rival those of Liam O'Brien and Scott Sellars in previous derby successes.

2008
At a Regulatory Commission hearing, a claim for wrongful
dismissal for United defender Habib Beye was
upheld and his
one-match suspension was withdrawn.
Beye was shown a red card after just 12 minutes
by referee Rob Styles
for denying an obvious goalscoring
opportunity during the home match against
Manchester City.

Andy Carroll put a traumatic week (having had his Range Rover torched) behind him by scoring the winner
that kept his side out of the bottom three and left them
ninth instead.
The game began with betting suspended on Magpie boss Chris Hughton losing his job, after a flurry of
wagers were made.

2013
Citing their "unfairly negative" coverage of a fan protest
march ahead of the previous Saturday's home game against
Liverpool, NUFC informed Trinity Mirror North East that
their three local titles, The Chronicle, Journal and
Sunday Sun were all banned from SJP.
News of the ban broke the following Sunday after United's
derby defeat at the stadium of plight, when Alan Pardew
was prevented from answering questions posed in the
press conference by writers from those papers.

To the dismay of a vociferous home crowd,
Newcastle left South London with a precious
point, albeit one that they scarcely deserved.
A spectacular second half equaliser from Callum Wilson
saw Graeme
Jones avoid defeat on his debut as interim Head
Coach.

Newcastle
defied both the
weather and their illustrious hosts to gatecrash into
the top four of the Premier League.
Callum Wilson and Miguel Almiron gave Eddie
Howe's side an interval lead, before a half time cloudburst raised doubts
as to whether further play would be possible.
Thankfully the deluge dissipated and despite Harry Kane
netting, United
held out for
a
memorable
victory.

out 3-2 winners in a PL2 fixture against Southampton.
Dylan Stephenson, Isaac Westendorf and Joe White were on
