Newcastle United 2 Manchester United 1 – Wednesday 4 March 2026 8.15pm
The photo that Newcastle United fans had all wanted to see on Wednesday night!
Eddie Howe leading his team to a superb win over Man U.
United the best team in the first half and the same in the second half, despite having to play with 10 men for the entire second 45 after the appalling referee sent Jacob Ramsey off before the break.
Eddie Howe’s side absolutely class, every player contributing to this excellent victory.
A winning snapshot post-match.
The all important winning photo = The twenty-first of the season.
It is actually the 22nd victory of the season but they didn’t have a dressing room winning photo after Qarabag away, as the play-off tie was only halfway through.
The Newcastle United Head Coach introduced this tradition of a post-match everybody included photo following each victory, as he felt it had worked as a bonding exercise when he was at Bournemouth.
It is also a massive bonus just how much it winds up fans of certain other clubs and journalists.
‘Look at them, think they have won the Premier League / Champions League… etc etc’
I absolutely love it.
At least 12 more games to go this season in all competitions, so hopefully a fair few more of these photos to come. Hopefully a fair few more than 12 matches to go as well…
