Any of the older Newcastle fans remember this song... I remember the day we played sunland at home... The red and white bastards they scored the first goal But when it was over and when it was done We beat the mackems by 3 goals to one Young Peter Cartwright he scored our first goal Then Tom Cass netted the best of them all 5 minutes late a penalty was given If Alan missed he would have been forgiven But when he stepped up He did not miss For the last half hour...we just took the piss. Classic days, both those new years wins. Not heard that song for ages but it's a classic too. Got a mate who doesn't get out much these days due to ill health but when he did he would never fail to belt that song out once he got a few drinks down him.

HaydnNUFC Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 My first ever game, 16 years ago today. It’s a small boy clambering up stadium steps for the very first time, gripping his father’s hand, gawping at that hallowed stretch of turf beneath him and, without being able to do a thing about it, being made to watch Martin Brittain playing and Graeme Souness on the touchline.

Guest Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 27 years ago today since the Cantona king-fu kick. I remember there was talk of a lifetime ban at the time for him. We’d have been champions 18 months later if that happened. Oh well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was coming out the Wimbledon match and heard someone say under the Leazes "Cantona's been sent off for kicking a phone" nice gag I thought. Or if he'd got just any ban at all for kicking Albert and stamping on Shearer and Beardsley in the same match we'd have been champions the next year. You'd think he played for Man United or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there that day - Ginola was kicked to buggery by Dixon, cheating little bastard, before eventually getting red carded when the frustration boiled over. Taught me to hate ‘PFM’ ‘don’t like it up ‘em’ shite from English football ‘hard men’. Never really played as well for us again - he only scored three league goals in his remaining 18 months at the club after that league cup exit at Highbury. Had looked like a world beater in the first six months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRaspberryJam Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I love going on nufc.coms "on this day" section and reading through old match reports, particularly when it was a big game/win under Robson. https://www.nufc.com/html/2002-03html/2003-01-29tottenham-a.html NUFC.com says this win took us 2nd, some achievement that when you consider that defence - particularly OBrien at right back. Robsons post match interviews are always full of enthusiasm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Arsenal were also playing that night and Wenger was asked if he saw us as contenders and he just said ‘no, not really’ or something similar.
