Champions League:
Lotto Winners!
Union SG 0 Newcastle 4
Newcastle lit the blue touch paper on their Champions League
campaign in Brussels on Wednesday night, scoring four times without
reply during what became a systematic dismantling of the reigning
Belgian champions.
Two goals in each half made it a comfortable night's work for the
Magpies at the Lotto Park home of Union's city rivals Anderlecht and
the winning margin could have easily matched or exceeded 1994's
celebrated 5-0 Antwerp romp.
It was a night of positives for Eddie Howe across the field as his
players combined stoic defence with rapid attacks: Anthony Elanga
enjoying his best game yet for the club.
Nick Woltemade scored again to make a mockery of recent unfavourable
comments in his native Germany, Anthony Gordon
netted two spot-kicks and revelled on the left and Harvey Barnes
resumed his super sub status by coming off the bench to clip home
his first goal of the season.
United opened the scoring in the 17th minute thanks to a slight but
vital touch from Woltemade on a Sandro Tonali snapshot, after Elanga's
cross was only partially cleared.
The Italian and German internationals appeared to be discussing
whose goal it was in the aftermath of the celebrations in front of
the away end, but big Nick was rightly credited with his third goal
in just four starts.
Elanga caused problems for Union down the United right and when
he cut across the edge of the area as half-time approached he was
sent tumbling by Fedde Leysen - referee Urs Schnyder immediately pointing to the spot.
Gordon made no mistake from 12 yards to send his side into the break
with a two-goal cushion ahead of the inevitable response from USG,
who missed a golden chance when Israeli international winger Anan
Khalaily evaded Dan Burn but shot wide three minutes after the
resumption.
Nick Pope was the busier of the two goalkeepers for a time but
United continued to threaten; Elanga close to his first Toon goal
but denied by Kjell Scherpen.
Gordon's 61st minute deep centre from the left into the box then
began the sequence of events that led to the clinching third goal:
Leysen ahead of Woltemade and Bruno in front of goal but blocking
the ball with his arm.
Play continued amid protests from both Newcastle players before a
VAR review sent the referee to the pitchside monitor and he duly
made his second spot kick award.
Gordon dispatched that firmly to the goalkeeper's right once again
for 3-0, indulging in his sharpshooter celebration for the second
time in the game.
Then came the goal of the night as Gordon robbed Sofiane Boufal in
the Newcastle area before finding Harvey Barnes in centre midfield.
He laid the ball off to fellow substitute Will Osula and the Dane
carried it forward before a defence splitting pass set up Barnes for
a neat first-time finish.
That triggered yet more flying pints in the away section, only a
stunning stop from Scherpen denying
Tonali a deserved goal and his side's fifth near the end.
A statement result and performance for Newcastle, as they
successfully married defensive steel and attacking poise for the
first time this season, matching their best European scoreline in
over 40 games and extending their run of away clean sheets in all
competitions to four games.
The win took United up to 11th in the 36-team table and sets them up
for a home double header against Benfica and Bilbao, both sides
still pointless after their two games.
Full match report to follow.

Crowd: 16,038 in a 21,500 capacity ground.
Despite not selling out, the NUFC allocation was limited to the
usual section for away supporters visiting Anderlecht - fencing and
segregation preventing any increase.
The attendance including around 1,000 Newcastle fans, who belted out
the Malick Thiaw chant skilfully fashioned from the Italian
anti-fascist anthem "Bella Ciao".
Despite thousands travelling with no hope of entry, not all of the
away tickets were used, some applicants contacted by NUFC only hours
before kick-off and offered places as the required points total
dropped.
Great news for anyone who went to Brussels regardless, rather less
pleasurable for those who stayed in the UK. Unconfirmed reports
state that the tickets offered were originally set aside for
corporates but then not taken up.
Eddie Howe said:
"Travelling out here, this was
what we wanted - especially after the Arsenal ending. It was a big
response from the players because it was a painful way to lose that
game.
"The players had to dig deep, look within themselves and come out
fighting again. That's what we do best. I thought it was a really
good display. It was always going to be a tough game but I think as
soon as we got that first goal it settled us down and we played
really well.
"There was certainly some good bits from the front three. There a
feeling we could score at any moment in the game. Two of the goals
have come from penalties but we've scored four away from home. We
couldn't have asked for any more and there were some good individual
performances, which is good to see.
"I thought we attacked well and defended well. Any time you get a
clean sheet in the Champions League away from home, it is a good
statement to make.
"Hopefully it helps us when we return to the Premier League because
we've been waiting for a performance like that. It wasn't perfect -
there are things we can improve - but it was a big step in the right
direction and in an important stage in the Champions League because
we have to start well.
"There are things we can improve but it was a
big step in the right direction, an important stage as well in the
Champions League because we have to start well.
"These competitions are so high and the demands
are so big on us that if we're slow starters, we could leave
ourselves too much to do, so I certainly leave here in a lot
healthier, positive frame of mind and I'm looking forward to the
next game.
"Both Woltemade and Tonali are claiming that
first goal - I love it. The best strikers I’ve worked with want to
score. Even if there is a directive, they don’t care. They want to
score. They want that responsibility. I’ve got no issue with that at
all."
About Nick Woltemade:
"His potential is high. It is an exciting start
for him and he's done really really well, and more importantly he is
willing, wants to do the work and wants to improve.
"It is difficult to put a percentage on what he
is right now but there is more to come physically and tactically as
we go through the journey together with him.
"We will be doing a lot of physical work with
him to get him robust enough for the Premier League week in, week
out."
On Tino Livramento:
"Tino, we think, will be out roughly around six
to eight weeks, which is probably positive from where we were after
the game, thinking it might be months.
"We're probably looking, not this international
break, but maybe the next one (in November), he could be back. So
certainly, more positive than we initially thought."
On Yoane Wissa:
"He's receiving treatment, no operation needed.
I think we're looking at the other side of the international break.
"We hope he can be fit and available for that
first game (Brighton away). Touch wood, it's not a long-term injury.
We get through the next few games and then he'll be back.'
On Jacob Ramsey:
"He is on the grass, working hard, building his
fitness. The plan, I think, was it would be the first game after the
international break.
"If it's any earlier than that, then of course
he's ahead of schedule."
USG coach Sebastien Pocognoli said:
"I'm proud of my team. They fought and even at 3-0 down they didn’t
give up. Newcastle were just on another level.
"We managed to threaten and we played our own game. We just lacked
efficiency, but one thing we have now is more experience. And that’s
something that will help us going forwards.
"There are more big teams to come in the Champions League and all
will bring their own strengths and tactics. All we can do is focus
on ourselves and improve our own game."
Ex-Boro player and USG captain Christian Burgess said:
"We saw a Newcastle side that were just much more efficient and had
so much quality. We started the game very offensively and created
chances.
"If we had scored to make it 2-1, for example, the whole game would
have changed. It’s unfortunate but a good lesson."

Stats:
Nick Woltemade netted his third Newcastle goal, his
first away from SJP and his maiden career strike in Europe.
Anthony Gordon moved on to three European goals for
United, taking him level in the all-time listings with Tommy Gibb
and Alan Gowling. The last player to net in successive European ties
before him was Papiss Cisse in 2013.
He's the first Magpie to score twice in any European tie since
Obafemi Martins at home to AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Cup during
March 2007.
Away from home, his was the first European brace since Shola Ameobi
at Lillestrom in the Intertoto Cup in August 2006. He's also
the last person to get two on the road in this competition, at Bayer
Levekusen in February 2003.
Harvey Barnes scored his 15th Newcastle goal and the first in
any cup competition as a Magpie. He's the 70th different player to
net for the club in European football, excluding own goals.
This was Newcastle's biggest-ever Champions
League away win and most emphatic on the road in Europe since their 4-0
UEFA Cup triumph
at Sochaux in 2004.
(NB: Anglo-Italian ties not included in any totals).
Newcastle were last awarded two penalties in any senior competitive
game in March 2024, when Alexander Isak converted in each
half at home to West Ham in the PL.
Away from home in all competitions, Callum Wilson scored both of his
spot kicks against Leeds United at Elland Road in the Premier League
during May 2023, also in each half.

U19s:
Belgians prevail
USG U19s 2 Newcastle U19s 0
Newcastle U19s were left to rue a host of missed chances on
Wednesday, as they suffered their second successive defeat in
this season's UEFA U19 Youth League.
Although their traditional Joseph Marien Stadium
home wasn't chosen to host Champions League ties, the youth meeting
of the sides was staged there, with a mixture of supporters and
officials in the 100 year-old stand.
To the delight of home fans and parents, Union took the lead in just
the sixth minute when Youssef Hamoutahar evaded Scott Bailey on the left,
made his way into the
box and fired beyond goalkeeper George Mair.
After a slow start, United began to dominate and fashion a trio of
presentable opportunities; Sean Neave lobbing Girogi Kavlashvili
only for a defender to intervene, Mo Waddani losing his one on one
with the goalkeeper and Leo Shahar's free kick from a dangerous
position blocked.
SG extended their advantage in the third minute of added
time when Sekou Keita bundled in a corner at the back amid protests
from the visitors - it's unclear whether they were claiming a foul
or handball but Macedonian referee Jovan Kachevski was unmoved -
having earlier booked Sam Alabi for querying the lack of free kick
for a clear foul on him.
The second half followed a similar pattern, with
the young Magpies enjoying the lion's share of possession but still
unable to fashion many clear chances.
The closest they came was when Neave struck the upright in the 71st
minute with the goalkeeper rooted to the spot; substitute Park
Seung-soo busy down the left without providing a killer pass or
cross.

Update:
Belfast boy
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.
"Bill McCracken..." is available to

We had two copies up for grabs and asked you to predict the final score in
Sunday's Newcastle v Arsenal game.
Nine of your correctly answered that the visitors would win by the
odd goal in three, meaning that a random draw was required to pick
B.Chandler and David Vasey as winners.

U18s:
City slicker
Newcastle U18s 1
Stoke City U21s 3
A below-par performance from United's youngsters
at Little Benton on Saturday morning saw them slip to their first
defeat of the season.
Both sides struggled to make headway in breezy conditions before the
visitors were gifted an opening goal in the 32nd minute, goalkeeper
George Mair's misdirected clearance falling to Jamal Khan who
supplied an accurate finish.
Stoke then twice came close to extending their advantage before the
interval; Elliot Fearn's ball from the right wing glancing off the
far post on 34 minutes and Pedro Nzau firing against the goal frame
ten minutes later.
The Potters doubled their lead 12 minutes into the second period
when striker Jayden Ogbebor met Fearn's cross and planted his
first-time effort into the net.
A third away goal followed within 60 seconds after United were
bullied out of possession deep in their own half, the unmarked Ryan Liu left with a routine finish.
Having lost striker Kacey Wooster and winger Mo Waddani to U21 duty
the previous evening, Newcastle struggled to make any headway in the
final third of the field.
15 year-old prospect Alfie Seldon did get one back with a run and
shot on 72 minutes for his second goal in as many games, but Stoke
were never in danger of surrendering the points despite picking up a
red card during time added on - the third successive fixture they've
finished with ten men.
Team: Mair, Bloomer, Goodbrand (Durrant 59), Epia, Johnson,
Miley (Cogdon 59), Alabi, Taylor (Pinnington 54), Hutchison,

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.
Friends and family groups remain, travel groups and away season tickets are
gone.

On This Day in History |
|
2nd October |
|
Born Or Died:
1920 William Henry Hughes
born, Cardiff.
(19??-46)
Centre
half Billy represented Wales as a schoolboy and later signed for United on
amateur terms.
Failing to win a professional contract at SJP, he joined Hartlepools in
1946 and after four seasons there signed for Annfield Plain.
Hughes passed away in 1995.
1959 Billy Askew
born, Great Lumley,
Durham. (1990-92)
Midfielder Billy started his
career as a youngster at the smoggies, but after just a handful of games and a brief loan spell at
Blackburn Rovers, he joined Hull City.
A cult figure at Boothferry Park between 1982 and 1990, Askew latterly
struggled with injuries but that failed to deter Jim Smith from bringing Askew
to Gallowgate - Billy needing no prompting to sign for his boyhood favourites.
Making his Magpies debut in a 0-2 loss at Blackburn Rovers in March 1990,
United won the next three games he played in, but then lost a two-legged
playoff semi-final to the mackems - Billy featuring in both legs.
Askew never really recovered from that and hamstring, calf and
groin injuries meant that he made just more one start and one sub appearance
before joining Shrewsbury Town on loan during their 1990/91 season.
Signing for Gateshead on a temporary basis, Billy then moved to the International
Stadium permanently after his release by United in 1992.
Later playing for Waterford United, Whitley Bay, Spennymoor United and
Workington, Askew went on to serve Darlington as both a youth coach and scout.
More recently he established the Billy Askew Youth Performance Centre in
Billingham, aiming to be an independent alternative to club-based football
academies.
1964 John Grant Robertson born, Edinburgh,
Scotland.
(1988)
Only diehards who attended our pre-season games against some obscure Swedish sides, Whitby
Town and Peterborough United ever witnessed
Robbo find the net in a black and white shirt.
A prolific scorer for Hearts back in his native Edinburgh, John failed to
settle at SJP as Willie
McFaul's refashioned side were in trouble from the opening seconds of the
1988/89 season at Everton.
And when an offer from Tynecastle to buy Robbo back for the original £750K
price was made in December 1988, all parties were in favour and the deal was
quickly done.
International recognition followed for John and after another decade as a Jambo, his
playing career wound down with spells at Dundee and Livingston.
Robertson's first managerial appointment came at Inverness Caledonian Thistle
in 2002, before a return to
Hearts two years later that ended in controversy after less than a year at the
helm.
Taking charge at Ross County and then Livingston, 2007 saw him head across the
Irish Sea for a brief stint at Derry City.
John then worked as a BBC football pundit and striker coach for Dundee United,
Kilmarnock and Hearts.
October 2010 then saw him return to management at East Fife, taking the job on
a part-time basis, while continuing to work as a Business Development Manager
for Inverness-based recruiters, Orion.
However, his tenure at Bayview ended in March 2012 and he
remained out of football until rejoining Hearts on a part time basis in July
2013 to coach their strikers - giving his services free to the cash-strapped
club.
That ended in June 2017, when Robertson began a second stint as Inverness Caley Thistle boss, winning the Scottish Challenge Cup the following year.
Becoming Sporting Director in 2021, a further brief spell in charge of the
first team came in September 2023 before the arrival of SJP old boy Duncan
Ferguson.
Robertson then returned to Ross County in June 2025 as part of Don Cowie's
coaching staff and was made interim manager when Cowie left two months later.
1993 Lee Toland born, Derry, Northern Ireland.
(2010-12)
Academy left back and Northern Ireland youth
international who joined Newcastle from Portsmouth in
the summer of 2010.
Debuting for United's U18s
in a 2-1 win at Bristol City that August, Lee's
reserve team bow came in a Northumberland Senior Cup tie against Ashington in
November 2011.
However, he failed to win a professional deal at SJP and was released the
following May, appearing briefly for Glenavon back in his native Northern
Ireland.
Linking up with Finn Harps for pre-season training in February 2013, Lee signed
for the League of Ireland side in July of that year (having kept fit turning
out for local side Kildrum Tigers).
He moved to Derry City from Harps, as a few players followed ex-boss Peter
Hutton to the Brandywell Stadium in 2014.
A change of code then followed for Toland in 2016, when he signed for Gaelic Football
side, Naomh Colmcille.

What Else?

1897 Burnley (a)
0-3
(0-3)
Division Two
P5, 8pts, 4th/16
Place(Jnr)(1), Ross(30), Bowes(32)
8,000
The game had a bizarre beginning, with an advertising
stunt seeing music hall performer "Witty Wattie
Walton" kicking off - and the home side going ahead
within 30 seconds.
This defeat at Turf Moor is the first recorded instance of a United 'keeper
saving a penalty, Charlie Watts faced a thrice-taken
spot kick successfully.
With the hosts 1-0 ahead, Tom McLintock scored - only for
referee Mr Barker from Newcastle under Lyme to order a
retake.
The same player then saw his second effort saved by Watts,
only for Barker to decree that a third attempt would be
required.
This time McLintock gave way to Jimmy Ross - who was
promptly denied by Watts.
1909 Manchester United
(a)
1-1
(0-1)
Division One
P8, 9pts, 4th/20
Rutherford(1-1)
Wall(20)

accommodated at Old Trafford.
1912 South Shields (a)
6-2
(2-1)
Friendly
Lowes(1-1,2-1,?,?), Hughes, Duncan
Bridgett(0-1),Hall(pen)
5,000
United
ran out convincing winners at Horsley Hill despite falling
behind to an early effort by player-manager Arthur
Bridgett - formerly with the mackems.
 1920 Sheffield United
(a)
3-0 (2-0)
Division One
P8, 10pts, 7th/22
Pyke(18,73),Ward(53)
28,000
A week after notching three without reply against the
Blades at Gallowgate, the Magpies repeated the feat at
Bramall Lane.
Nine of the side appeared in both games, Neil Harris
dropping out due to illness and Wilf Low omitted following
the death of his brother.
George Pyke deputised for Harris and scored his first
goals for the club while Ed Ward also broke his senior
team duck.
1922 Cardiff City (n)
0-4
(0-3)
Friendly
McDonald(0-1,0-2), Keenor
(0-3), Grimshaw(0-4)
15,000
This game was played at Wigan's Springfield Park in
aid of the Whitehaven Pit Disaster Fund. That was set
up over eleven years previously following the loss of 136
men & boys) at Wellington Pit on May 11th 1910.
The fund had expanded over the previous decade
as the mines around
Whitehaven were known for their ‘gassy’ nature and there
were many violent explosions up to four miles below the
ground over a number of years resulting in loss of life.
At the final count over
1,200 people lost their lives working down
the mines in that area.
Team:
Bradley, Roxburgh, Hudspeth, McIntosh, Mooney, Curry,
Lowe, Hagen, Smailes, McDonald, Keane.
1926 Arsenal (a)
2-2
(2-0)
Division One
P9, 10pts, 8th/22
Clark(3), Seymour(7)
Buchan(68), Parker(75pen)
38,842
The Gunners recovered from falling 0-2 behind early
on to claim a point; Alf Maitland's handball in the area
giving former mackem Charlie Buchan the chance to level
from the penalty spot.
1937 Coventry City (h)
1-2
(0-0)
Division Two
P9, 5pts, 19th/22
Smith(62)
Lager(54,73)
22,000
The third-ever meeting
between these two sides went according to the form book:
City top of the table while
Newcastle languished back in seventeenth.
The splendidly-named Ellis Lager netted both Coventry
goals and had another effort disallowed for a debatable
offside.
1943 York City (h)
1-1 (1-0)
Wartime
Milburn(1-0)
Lee(1-1)
9,877
Three penalty kicks were awarded in this match, but
all were missed.
City squandered two, although Lee was able to convert his
when it rebounded back off the crossbar. Albert Stubbins
also struck the goal frame before the ball was cleared to
safety.
 1948 Portsmouth (a)
0-1
(0-0)
Division One
P11, 13pts, 6th/22
Phillips(64)
44,000
The home side won thanks to a late goal
from Len Phillips, set up by future United captain Jimmy
Scoular.
That extended Pompey's unbeaten run to twelve games and
they would go on to win the First Division
championship, thumping United 5-0 at Gallowgate in the
return game.
1954
Cardiff City (a)
2-4
(0-2)
Division One
P11, 11pts, 12th/22
Milburn(85), White(89)
Sullivan(14), Stockin(28),
Ford(65,68)
37,000
A bad day at Ninian Park for the Magpies; beaten for
the third successive game and fortunate to be only four
goals behind, before City eased off late on and cheaply
conceded twice.
1954
Newcastle reserves defeated their Manchester City
counterparts 3-1 at SJP, with Tommy Casey, Ivor Broadis
and Bill Tulip netting.
Along with George Hannah, Broadis had been relegated to
the second string rather than play at Cardiff.
1954 United defender Alf McMichael was part of the Northern Ireland
side beaten 2-0 by England at Windsor Park in his native
Belfast.
1955 Almost four
years to the day since his previous outing, Jackie Milburn
was recalled to the England side for one more cap. He
failed to score in a 5-1 victory over Denmark in
Copenhagen, as Don Revie hit a hat trick. Unusually, the
game took place on a Sunday.

while a second half fight back would have yielded a point but
for some inspired work by Canaries 'keeper Kevin Keelan.

P8, 11pts, 10th/22
Keegan(10,23pen,57,73), Todd(75)
McBride(79)
12,436
Terry McDermott's second Magpies debut provided the spur for a four goal blast from
Kevin Keegan, the day before the England squad was
announced.
Millers' player-manager Emlyn Hughes saw his
penalty saved by Kevin Carr and rookie Kevin Todd
completed the Millmoor misery for Crazy Horse when his
speculative cross looped over the home 'keeper.
The BBC's "Match of the
Day" beamed the game out, with the chant of "Bobby Robson, are you watching on the
box?" echoing out from the large travelling
support.

support - were hugely impressive.

1998
Alan Shearer won the player of the month award for
September. Shearer's six league goals gave him his first
outright award although he was a joint winner with Chris
Sutton in November 1994.
2000 A 1-3 home defeat to
Leeds Reserves at Kingston Park with future Magpie Michael Bridges
among the scorers for the visitors.
James Coppinger netted our sole reply.
NUFC.com match
report
2001 United announced significantly reduced losses over the financial
year ending on July 31, 2001. The operating loss was cut by by 73% to
£5.1m,
compared to £19.1m in 2000.
Turnover also increased turnover by 22% to £54.9m, the
greater SJP capacity seeing an upturn in gate receipts.
2004
Newcastle's U18 side retained pole position in their
league, thanks to a 2-1 away win in the junior Tyne-wear
derby.
Goals from strike duo Marc Walton and Carl Finnigan
wrapped up the points, the latter a belated birthday
present for Jarrow lad Carl, who had turned 18 the
previous day.
2007
Goals from Emre and Mark Doninger earned the
reserves a 2-2 draw against Manchester City played at Sports City - adjacent to the CoM Stadium.
Emre,
Enrique
& Abdoulaye Faye all featured, having been
substitutes across the road in the Premier League meeting of the
two sides the previous weekend.
The game was also notable for the return of Joey Barton
against his former club -
a first outing since limping out of a pre-season game at Carlisle
in July.
NUFC.com match report
2009 The Premier League Tribunal that had sat in judgment over the Kevin
Keegan/ Newcastle United dispute
released their decision, ruling that the former Magpies boss was
constructively dismissed - and he was owed a sum of £2m to settle his
contract.
As significant as the judgment and award, the findings of the
tribunal were even more revealing, providing a damning indictment of the
club's workings during the Ashley regime.
2018
United added coach Neil Redfearn
to their U23 staff to work with Ben Dawson, in post since the start of 2018 when Peter Beardsley was placed on
gardening leave following allegations of misconduct.
Redfearn's initial stint at the club would be brief and a
permanent return as U23s Head Coach in 2019 was also
short-lived.

Steve Bruce's 999th game as a manager saw his Magpies side defeated
by a poor Wolves team; Jeff Hendrick's equalising

to be the
final game of the
Mike Ashley administration.
