Produktbeschreibung

Newcastle United ~ Season ZERO At the beginning of the 1892-93 season Newcastle West End no longer existed, Newcastle East End had moved across the city into West End's ground, St James's Park, and mid-season changed their name to Newcastle United. This was a season of change, this was "Season ZERO". Having refused a place in the newly formed Football Association League Division 2 it was Newcastle East End's fate to spend one final season in the Northern League along with Darlington, Middlesbrough, Middlesbrough Ironopolis, Sheffield United and Stockton. Newcastle United ~ Season ZERO is the game-by-game account of that season, (1892-93), detailing all the Northern League games, the unfortunate early exit from the FA Cup and the 33 friendlies too. Read all about the six times Newcastle notched up five goals, the three times they scored seven goals and yes, the time they scored eight goals! If you're a fan of Newcastle United then this is a "must have" in your library. If you're a fan of football in general then this book is an invaluable source of reference to the Northern League 1892-93.

Autorenporträt

Born and bred in Newcastle and raised on a staple diet of stories of Hughie Gallacher from my Grandfather and Jackie Milburn from my Father there was never any doubt about where my football loyalties would lay. Going to St James's Park for the first time as a child and seeing Newcastle play a goalless draw with Everton, which if memory serves me correctly was an instantly forgettable game from a football point of view - but to me it was just amazing. I'd never seen so many people in the same place at the same time before, almost 30,000 - I was hooked straight away. Now, after more years than I care to remember, it's all about sharing the history of, to me, the greatest football club in the world with all you good people out there.
