    Taggart wasn't allowed to due to his image rights tied in with his sponsors and the WC squad.

    Iirc Mitch Oxborrow didn't shave either.
    OK

    Taggart, Griff, Heskey and Bridges - how about that for a strikeforce?

    Compared to what we have now.

    OTD 2015: A hail storm prior to a match sees 4162 people attend a Hunter Stadium clash with Perth Glory.

    Jets lose 2-0 but the biggest talking point is the unfurling of a banner saying "Enough Failure, Lies + Arrogance. 10000 Fans Demand The Muppet Gone"

    In 34 seasons of National League participation Newcastle have won in the first round 12 times.

    2017-18 Central Coast Mariners 1 vs Newcastle United Jets. Scorers O'Donovan 9, 28, 38, Champness 81, D Petratos 90.

    Roy O'Donovan's Hattrick is only the 12th in Newcastle's 900+ game history.

    There's a few more things to come, I just have to work on the formatting when I get some time.

    I've sent these on to the club, because they should be on the "History" page of the website but it's still to go up and it needs to be captured somewhere - so here it is!

    Happy 40th Birthday - Newcastle KB United and National representation of this fine
    city in the Philips Soccer League and other leagues beyond.

    It was an honour and privilege to attend the luncheon last Friday. I was seated between
    Graham Heys and Con Mitsios. Other legends a the table were Craig Mason, David 'Jonah' Jones,
    Peter Willis as well as former directors of various club incarnations David Brown and Eddie Boards.

    40 years ago today Newcastle KB United played Sydney City Hakoah and lost 1-4. The crowd according to OzFootball records
    was 15,067. Kenny Boden scored the club's first goal - a pen.
    It's taken 40 years but Saturday night felt like we were back to something of those halcyon days.
    May they long continue - with full community support this time.
