Scottish outside left John Inglis was brought into the side, but failed to make an impact and was discarded after only three games.

After falling behind to two early goals, United got back into the game before half-time through Joe Wallace only to concede a Daft goal after the break.

The Athletic correspondent at Hyde Road noted that "Novocastrians were in force and after leaving their canny town at half past eight the previous evening were willing to pay anything for a good view of the game."

He continued, "their comments were not always couched in language of the most delicate nature, but still they were fair."

What the Athletic News called, "a fast, strenuous and exciting struggle" went the way of the visitors thanks to a late winner.

United led just before half time, after Billy Troughear's handball was punished with a penalty award that Bill McCracken blasted past goalkeeper Walter Scott.

The hosts levelled soon after the restart and a draw loomed before Scott came off his line but misjudged a cross and allowed Newcastle's Jack Scott to fire into the unguarded net.

1911 A 0-1 home defeat by Manchester United at Gigg Lane proved to be the final appearance of Billy Hibbert for Bury, with confirmation post-match that he was to join Newcastle for a club record fee.

While Newcastle extended their winless run to seven games, the Gunners were already en route to their second successive First Division title (which would become a third the following season). 

There was a slow start to what would be an impressive United career for debutant Tommy Pearson, while future Magpies Ray Bowden and Ralph Birkett both netted for Arsenal.

The manner of United's win was poorly-received by the visiting Derby Evening Telegraph reporter, who claimed that Jackie Milburn "was at least three yards offside" when he  scored the opener from George Robledo's pass.

Testimonial match staged at SJP for long-serving United trainer Norman Smith. 

Old boy Ernie Taylor played for an All Stars side weakened by several late withdrawals, alongside Newcastle boss Charlie Mitten and future Magpie Billy Day, the latter a Middlesbrough player at the time.

Also featuring for the visiting side was Roy Stephenson, a product of United's "N's" nursery side a decade earlier who failed to break into the Newcastle first team but did appear for Burnley, Rotherham United, Blackburn Rovers and Leicester City.

Despite going behind after just 40 seconds at Gigg Lane, Newcastle recovered to score seven goals away from home in a Division Two match for the very first time (although they had twice done it during top flight away fixtures).

The first Tyne-wear derby meeting outside the top flight since 1964 ended honours even, United donning blue change shirts for the occasion.

Future Magpie Jeff Clarke gave away a free kick from which Peter Withe headed home at the Roker End, before Steve Hardwick's fumble allowed Roy Greenwood to sweep home an equaliser.

McGhee(90)

With just seconds left to play and Newcastle's 100% home start looking at an end, Mark McGhee gained possession of the ball just over halfway.

The striker embarked on a mazy run taking him past half of the Bantams side before planting the ball past Paul Tomlinson in the Leazes End goal. Sensational.

Future mackem plank Danny Dichio put the hosts ahead on half time, only for Keith Gillespie to loop in a header straight after the interval.

Sir Les then scored a cracker on his return to Loftus Road - outpacing close friend Danny Maddix to blast an unstoppable shot - before Dichio restored parity with another header. 

Gillespie hit the winner soon after; walking the ball home after R's goalkeeper Juergen Sommer was left stranded by an over-hit back pass from defender Karl Ready.

Kevin Keegan's side held on for their sixth successive victory in all competitions and made it eight wins out of nine in the league.
