Was that 83-84? What a season. It was great to come out of the depression of the pre KK playing era. Found myself watching KKs toon debut v QPR (1982) on YouTube again today. Still spine tingling watching his winner and seeing the limbs all over the packed Gallowgate. Thought I was dreaming watching that back then.

Think it must have been 82/3 as a different badge in 83/4 and Terry Mac joined in 82.

 

Edit: would seem it's Jan '84

The pic is from KKs 2nd season. The promotion season.

Interesting, Alamy says "Newcastle United Players, Terry McDermott, Chris Waddle and Peter Beardsley enjoy a cup of tea ahead of training session at Benwell, Thursday 5th January 1984. The players face Liverpool in the FA Cup tomorrow at Anfield. (match score Liverpool 4-0 Newcastle)" - https://www.alamy.com/newcastle-united-players-terry-mcdermott-chris-waddle-and-peter-beardsley-enjoy-a-cup-of-tea-ahead-of-training-session-at-benwell-thursday-5th-january-1984-the-players-face-liverpool-in-the-fa-cup-tomorrow-at-anfield-match-score-liverpool-4-0-newcastle-image465185810.html

 

This would suggest you're right. Confused as to why they're wearing the 82/3 kit in the picture. Perhaps they trained in old kits back then.

Beardsley and Keegan played one season together, the promotion season. The season before was Varadi.

 

Im guessing those tops were a case of grab whatever tops for a photo, as you say maybe used for training..... also the last current Newcastle top I ever owned.

Yeah, looking into it Beardsley joined in 83 so must have been 83/4. The fact there's no star on his shirt does suggest random shirts grabbed.
