Another article inspired by Kyle, I thought I'd talk about my favourite and least favourite things in my time following Newcastle United and I will be keeping it to from my first Toon game in January 2009. Favourite game - 1-0 v Anzhi Makhachkala (14/03/2013) I thought I'd start with my favourite Magpies game and for this one, I'm going to go with the 1-0 win over Anzhi Makhachkala in the Europa League in March 2013.

Things didn't start well for the Spaniard though as only one point from his first four games (includi

Jacob Murphy arrived at the club while he was 22 years of age and had been a Norwich City player throughout his career despite being a Newcastle United fan since childhood. It was a signing that was certainly made with the future in mind after showing some promise in Norwich's 2016/17 Championship campaign. The move to Tyneside was the first time he made a permanent move away from Carrow Road after having no less than six loan moves in 2014-2016 to various places in the Footb

The first players to leave us in the summer were Vurnon Anita, Sammy Ameobi, Lubomir Satka and Haris Vuckic, who were all released at the end of their contracts. It took a while to make our first signing as Florian Lejeune finally arrived from Eibar on 4 July whilst Graham Carr left his role as chief scout and Matz Sels joined Anderlecht on loan. Later that week, we were linked with wingers Sheyi Ojo, Jesus Navas, Adama Traore and Jacob Murphy and the latter was signed from N
