Leeds United (a)
Newcastle return to Premier League
action
tonight at Elland Road - a venue where they
remain unbeaten in each of their last three
visits.
After the weekend's results the Magpies know that victory will take
them up to third in the table behind the two 100% sides, Arsenal and
Manchester City.
After none of the nine home teams in PL action over the weekend won,
there are some online claims that an away win or a draw would
complete an unprecedented fixture round with no home wins at all.
That's untrue however; the weekend of September 23rd 2000 seeing
seven draws and three away wins - amongst them a 1-0 success for
Charlton Athletic at SJP.
It's an 8pm kick-off, live on Sky Sports and all
2,960 away section tickets were sold. The usual ticket transfer
window applies and closes at 3pm on Monday.
The Magpies are unbeaten in their opening five league and cup games,
emulating season starts in both 2022/23 and 2024/25. However, they
haven't improved on that since the 2011/12 campaign, when they went
11 without loss.
Team: William Osula, Joelinton and Dan Burn remain out. Ewen Jaouen
and Amar Dedic are doubtful.

LUFC: Joe Rodon remains out.
So far this season in the Premier League, Daniel Farke's side have
won 1-0 at Nottingham Forest, drawn 1-1 at home to Brentford and
repeated that latter scoreline at Brighton.
Leeds visited Chelsea in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night, racking
up a 2-0 lead before conceding six times in less than 40 minutes to
lose 3-6. First choice custodian James Trafford spent
the night on the bench.
Matthias Jaissle is set to encounter two familiar faces at Elland
Road, with Leeds pair Brenden Aaronson and Noah Okafor part of his
2021/22 league and cup double winning side at Red Bull Salzburg.
Referee: Michael Salisbury - the Lancastrian whistler's most
recent Newcastle posting was for the epic 4-3 home win over Leeds
back in January.

Premier League:
Festive PL changes
Despite the fact that the Premier League are yet to confirm live TV schedules for November and the opening weeks of December,
Thursday saw them reveal the fixture programme for the Christmas and new year
period:
All four of Newcastle's PL fixtures are altered as follows:
Sat 26.12.2026 Manchester City (h) 8pm Sky
Wed 30.12.2026 Nottingham Forest (h) 7.30pm Sky
Sun 03.01.2027 Chelsea (a) 2pm Sky
Thu 07.01.2027 Manchester United (a) 8pm Sky
The scheduling of the Old Trafford visit appears to preclude the
staging of Newcastle's FA Cup Third Round tie 48 hours later, on Sat
09.01.2027.
U18s:
Youngsters taste defeat
Newcastle U18s 0 Manchester United U18s 2
Boasting a 100% record after their opening four games, Newcastle's
U18 side were deservedly beaten at Little Benton after conceding a
goal in each half.
The Red Devils came close to taking a 25th minute lead when Edson
DeJonge-Seiros met Emmanuel Ziro's right wing cross but directed his
header at 'keeper George Mair.
The 16 year-old forward wasn't to be denied for long however, firing
in nine minutes before the interval after Jariyah Shah and Jaume
Camacho combined.
The visitors coped better than the young Magpies with a swirling
wind and sealed victory in the 90th minute when substitute Noah
Ajayi ended a solo run into the box by slotting the ball beyond Mair.
Despite netting 16 times in their opening four games, the hosts
failed to create a scoring chance of note - Mair's long punt
downfield in the second half the only time that visiting 'keeper
Charlie Hardy's clean sheet was threatened.
Defeat for Newcastle coupled with a 4-1 win for Manchester City over
the mackems saw the Citizens replace the Magpies at the top of the
North Group.
Team: Mair, Koussou (Afumuzor 74), Moran, Morgan,
Healy-Matthews, Old, Gilligan, Seldon, Robinson, Skelton, Benjamin (Bowness
46 [Callaghan 79]).
Subs n/u: Holland, Patterson.
Booked: Robinson.
There was an U18 bow for Thomas Bowness, who was
introduced as a half time substitute but was himself then replaced
with what looked like a minor injury.
Update:
Hall: United we stand
Newcastle confirm that Lewis Hall has put pen to paper on
a new five
year deal keeping him at Gallowgate until 2031.
The defender turned 22 earlier this week and has been a Magpie for
just over three years, following his arrival from Chelsea on an
initial loan with a purchase obligation.
Debuting in the 8-0 win at Sheffield United, Lewis ended the season
with 22 league and cup appearances and two goals - both scored
against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
A lifelong Magpies fan whose father was born on Tyneside, Hall's
progress prompted a first senior England cap against Greece in
Athens during November 2024.
An injury sustained against Liverpool four months later ended his
second season prematurely after 34 games and meant that he watched
his colleagues win the Carabao
Cup from home while recuperating from foot surgery.
Fit again for the 2025/26 campaign, Lewis swapped previous squad
number 20 for number 3 and ended the season with 46 appearances in
all competitions and another goal scored in Manchester - this time
away at Manchester City.
Despite multiple man of the match awards for his club however,
England boss Thomas Tuchel omitted Hall when making his selection
for the World Cup Finals.
Instead of that he enjoyed a close season break, while a host of
scurrilous rumours regarding an alleged dream move to Manchester
United polluted cyberspace.
Hall follows
colleagues Lewis Miley and Harvey Barnes by signing a new long-term
contract at the club.
There's nothing to stop any of that trio leaving of course, but it
does mean that the initiative regarding the timing, terms of sale
and price shifts to the Magpies - with no release clause in Hall's
deal (tbc about the other two).

Premier League:
Brighton (a) update
Confirmation of Newcastle's November Premier League schedule should appear
soon, but it's already clear that the visit
to Brighton will change regardless of TV meddling.
The Seagulls will be in UEFA Conference League action on the preceding
Thursday, meaning that our Amex game won't remain as listed on
Saturday November 28th.
The expectation is that we'll face Albion on Sunday 29th - although
the Monday night slot is theoretically possible, a full midweek
Premier League programme then follows.
Almost inevitably, the Brighton game coincides with yet another
weekend closure of London Kings Cross and rail replacement buses
from Peterborough to Bedford*
* LNER tickets aren't yet on sale for that weekend, but it's planned
to run two services direct from Newcastle to Bedford and back as
well as to and from Peterborough.
Whether they are of any use to Toon travellers though depends on
when the Brighton game is scheduled.
There's also engineering work between Three Bridges and Brighton on
Sunday November 29th. Thameslink advertise bus replacements, but an
hourly direct Southern service between London and Brighton shows on
journey planners.
PS: Before Brighton comes United's PL trip to Fulham on or around
Saturday November 7th. The date and time is still to be confirmed,
but with the November international break starting after, cannot
move to Monday 9th. Kings Cross trains that weekend have no
scheduled alterations.
U21s:
Minstermen up next
Tuesday sees Newcastle U21s play their opening EFL Trophy Northern
Group C fixture, facing League Two side York City at the LNER
Stadium.
That's a 7pm kick-off and if the scores are level after 90
minutes, then a penalty shootout will determine the victor.
A section of the West Stand will be open for Newcastle fans, with
home followers in the East Stand. Tickets for both are on sale from
YCFC, priced at £10 for adults +booking fee.
The tie is live on Sky Sports+
As well as those players out on loan, the Magpies will be without
winger Park
Seung-soo, who is in the South Korea
squad for U23
Asian Games starting in Japan this week.
Robbie Stockdale's side will make two further visits to Yorkshire in
this competition, beginning with a game at Bradford City on
Wednesday week, September 22nd. They then face Rotherham United on
Tuesday November 3rd.
PS: This the first of two visits to the LNER Stadium this week for
Newcastle U21s, with a PL2 fixture against Leeds United to be played
there on Saturday.
That's a 12.30pm kick-off.
Loan
lads:
The borrowers
Ousmane Diabate (Genclerbirligi):
Keeping his place in the side for Sunday's Turkish Super Lig home
meeting with Kasımpasa, the 18 year-old netted with a
right-footed snap shot from just inside the box after 23
minutes - a stylish way to bag his first senior goal.
However the midfielder ended up on the losing side as the visitors
netted a winner in second half time added on. Ousmane (pictured
wearing number 42) completed 90 minutes at the cost of a yellow
card.
See his goal online
here
Nick Woltemade (Juventus):
Arriving as a substitute away to Sassuolo in Serie A after an
hour on Sunday with the game scoreless, the striker ended up on the
wrong end of a 2-3 loss.
Sean Neave (Wolves):
Sunday's 1-0 win over Sheffield United at Bramall Lane in the
Championship was achieved with the forward on the bench.
Leo Shahar (Arouca):
The full back wasn't in the matchday squad on Sunday, as Arouca lost
1-2 at home to Santa Clara in the Primeira Liga.
Rory Finneran (Notts County):
Rory played the full game for County as they lost 0-1 at home to
Bradford City in League One on Saturday.
Anthony Munda (Swindon Town):
Anthony started the game at York City in League Two on Saturday.
They were trailing 0-3 when he was substituted in the 77th minute
with the Minstermen adding a fourth.
Alex Murphy (Kaiserslautern):
Alex started in his side's 0-3 defeat at FC Magdeburg in Bundesliga 2
on Saturday. He was subbed just after the hour when all the goals
had already been scored.
Antonio Cordero (Cadiz):
Antonio was on the bench for the home game against UD Las Palmas
in Segunda Division on Saturday. He joined the action in the 58th
minute and two minutes later Las Palmas scored the only goal of the
game.
Odysseas Vlachodimos (Seville):
A clean sheet for the goalkeeper in La Liga on Friday night, as
Seville beat Valencia 1-0 at home.
Harrison Ashby (Luton Town):
The defender missed Thursday's 1-2 loss at Stevenage in League One
due to injury.
Carabao Cup:
League Cup draw
Newcastle will learn their Fourth Round opponents in the Carbao
Cup this Wednesday,
when the draw is staged following the Manchester United versus
Brighton tie.
Ties are scheduled for w/c Monday October 26th* between our PL trip
to Crystal Palace on Sunday October 25th and the PL visit of Everton
to SJP on Monday November 2nd.
* There are no potential European clashes for this round, meaning
all ties should be played during this one week.

Update:
One in, one out
It's reported that ex-Magpie Paul Dummett has returned to the
club in a development squad loan capacity, following Shola Ameobi's
move to a corporate role.
The 34 year-old exited from Gallowgate at the end of the 2023/24
season, playing on for Wigan Athletic before a brief spell at
Carlisle United ended with his retirement in 2025.
Meanwhile goalkeeping coach Adam Bartlett has left the
Magpies after the arrival of Matthias Jaissle and his staff.
Playing for Newcastle as a youngster, the 40 year-old returned to
the club as a coach in 2019, succeeding Simon Smith as head of the
goalkeeping department in 2022.

ST holders have 24
hours to apply for away tickets, 24 hours to determine success, 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.

On This Day in History |

14th September |

Born Or Died:
1952
David Embleton born, Newcastle.
(1971-72)
Youngster who failed to make a senior appearance during his time at SJP, played league
football with Bury and Hartlepool as well as appearing for Gateshead.
David later worked for Newcastle Breweries as Director of Sales.
1957 George Reilly born, Bellshill, Scotland. (1985)
Although born in Scotland, George grew up in the Tartan enclave
of Corby, after his family relocated to the Northamptonshire town when his
father got a job at the steelworks.
Beginning his football career at Corby Town, Reilly worked as a bricklayer
before turning professional at Northampton Town and then moving on to Cambridge
United.
1983 saw him sign for Watford, appearing in the FA Cup Final at the end of his
first season as a Hornet - although his side lost 2-0 at Wembley against
Everton.
Newcastle had first expressed an interest in Reilly early in the 1984/85
season, but were unable to agree a fee and instead signed Tony Cunningham from
Manchester City to boost their attacking options.
No sooner had that deal been done though that Watford opted to accept United's
offer and Reilly also signed - both strikers being paired for the first time in
a 1-0 home win over Luton Town in March 1985.
Reilly's first goal followed in the next game, with Cunningham also scoring in
a 3-1 home win over Watford. However the pairing wasn't a success and the route
one football that it encouraged saw Chris Waddle quit the club and Peter
Beardsley seek pastures new.
(Beardo later wrote that: "I certainly didn't enjoy the way we played,
neither did Waddle and I am quite certain the fans didn't like it much
either.")
The highpoint of Reilly's time in Toon was probably scoring the only goal
of the game to beat Liverpool at SJP in August 1985, but within four months he
had departed - sold on to West Bromwich Albion following the signing of Billy
Whitehurst from Hull City.
Reilly remained at the Hawthorns until 1988 before returning to former club
Cambridge United and winding down his career at Barnet and returning to his
bricklaying trade.
His 'Rambo' nickname was ironic and stemmed from his donning a black bandana in
the style of Sylvester Stallone's fictional hero - although some of George's
play was more reminiscent of Sly's approximation of association football in "Escape
to Victory"...
Perhaps his other nickname was more fitting - Mavis, in honour of the
Coronation Street character Mavis Riley....
Those 1984 FA Cup exploits were to have a belated effect on
Reilly, when he had part of his ear bitten off while working on a Corby
building site in 2003.
The culprit proved to be a Plymouth Argyle fan, seeking revenge for
Reilly's goal against the Pilgrims in the FA Cup Semi Final.
Reilly commented at the time of the attack:
"I can't believe someone held a grudge for that long. I know people
have strong loyalties but this is taking it a bit far."
George then admitted to a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease in 2019 - an
apparent legacy of his playing career.
1995 Stuart Findlay born, Rutherglen, Scotland. (2016-18)
Central defender who arrived
on Tyneside following his release by Celtic to boost United's development
squad.
Scottish U21 international Findlay made a senior bow for Celtic in a friendly
against Norwich City during 2012 but never played competitively for the
Parkhead club.
Loaned out to Greenock Morton in 2014, he spent the following season at
Dumbarton and the 2015/16 campaign with Kilmarnock as they avoided relegation
under the guidance of former Magpie Lee Clark.
Stuart's first Magpie outing came against a team clad in green and white hoops
- facing Bradford Park Avenue in a pre-season U21 kickabout during July 2016.
And his competitive debut was in a 3-0 away reserve win at Norwich City a month
later.
Findlay was one of three senior debutants (along with Yasin Ben El-Mhanni and Dan Barlaser) in a 3-1
FA Cup home win over Birmingham City in January 2017.
Agreeing a season-long loan switch to Kilmarnock that August, he signed a
permanent deal at Rugby Park in 2018 following his release by Newcastle.
Playing there for ex-Newcastle coach Steve Clarke, his installation as
Scotland boss in 2019 resulted in a first senior international call-up for
Findlay.
A first full cap then arrived that October, playing the entirety of a 6-0
win over San Marino and scoring Scotland's fifth goal.
Moving from Kilmarnock to Philadelphia Union in early 2021, Stuart returned
to the UK with Oxford United a year later.
Loaned back to Kilmarnock for the
2023/24 and 2024/25 seasons, Findlay spent the following campaign at Hearts
before a permanent switch came in
July 2026.

31,000
The first part of a
two-legged unofficial "Battle of Britain" was
decisively won by the home side, with the visitors
"humiliated" in the view of one local scribe.
However the English Cup holders would score five times
without reply against their Scottish counterparts a week
later in the return match at Gallowgate.
Both trophies were displayed on the Ibrox pitch before
kick-off in this first leg.
Team: McInroy,
Nelson, Fairhurst, McKenzie, Davidson, Weaver, Boyd,

A week after a
2-5 reverse at The Hawthorns, United gained swift
revenge in the return at SJP.
Visiting goalkeeper Jimmy Adams saved Tom Mooney's
penalty with the score at 1-1.
The meeting of the two reserve teams in the Midlands the
same day was also goal-laded, Albion running out 5-4
winners.
Centre forward William Scott hit the target on his debut
following a transfer from Aberdeen, while Alf Garnham
scored a penalty and William Isaac also netted. An OG by
Bassett completed the scoring.

Having hit the woodwork
four times in the first half, United buckled after the
break and Alf McMichael headed into his own goal.
Former Magpie Roy Bentley then scored in front of a small
Stamford Bridge crowd that gathered on a Wednesday
afternoon before Frank Blunstone made it 0-3.
The venue for the game between the First Division
champions and FA Cup holders had been decided upon the
toss of a coin.
TV cameras were present to capture footage for broadcast
that same night, but rather fortuitously (for them) only
recorded the second half.

Thompson, Lackenby, McMichael, Scoular, Brennan, Casey,
White, Davies, Milburn, Hannah, Punton.

UEFA Cup 1st Round 1st Leg
25,000
United ended a near-seven year absence from Europe at Dalymount Park - although there was as much
action off the field as on it.
Ralph Callachan debuted on a night when the referee
took the teams off just before halftime after as Magpies
'keeper Mick Mahoney was felled by a brick thrown from
home fans housed in the Tram Shed End.
1981 United were forced to pull out of a deal to
buy defender Tommy Booth from Manchester City through
lack of funds.

Lanky striker George Reilly celebrated his 28th
birthday in fine style with a brace against the Baggies
- having had two stitches in a head wound at half time.
And also celebrating was Magpies boss Willie McFaul, who
had "Caretaker" tag removed from his job title
days earlier.
1988 Within weeks
of joining Tottenham, Paul Gascoigne made his senior
England debut as he replaced Peter Beardsley late on in a 1-0 victory over Denmark.
Future Magpie Bjorn Kristensen played for the visitors in

Hopes of a first home win of the season at the third
attempt looked bleak when Tim Steele opened the scoring
for Wolves visitors and Steve Bull netted yet again at
his favourite away ground.
An own goal by Lawrie Madden didn't give the home support
much encouragement, and attempts at an equaliser failed.

A fourth successive victory for The Magpies and a
third goal for Alan Shearer, who swept his penalty past
Tim Flowers after a Colin Hendry handball.
Les Ferdinand then made it five goals in just four games
when he headed home a David Ginola corner, before Chris
Sutton beat Pavel Srnicek from distance to set up a
slightly nervy final few minutes.

1998
Goals from Scots duo Garry Brady and Paul Dalglish helped
United's reserve side to a 2-0 win against Wrexham at
SJP.
2002 United's U17s won 4-1 at Charlton, thanks to
goals from Guy Bates (2), Paul Huntington & Danny Howe.
However, that victory was eclipsed by a 7-2 success for

New boy Antoine Sibierkski marked his
United debut by scoring the only goal of the game at the
A Le Coq Arena in Tallinn.
His strike partner Obafemi Martins wasn't so fortunate
however and failed to open his scoring account for the
club.
The lack of squad depth was highlighted when an injury to
Titus Bramble forced Glenn Roeder to switch Peter Ramage
to central defence and Damien Duff to left back -
something that he'd be forced to do later on during his
time on Tyneside.
