Newcastle v United: Five terrific trips to Tyneside

The match marks our 83rd visit to Newcastle's stadium in all competitions and we’ve won on 31 of our previous trips, a number which includes some particularly memorable matches.

Let’s take a look at five of the very best...

Newcastle 2-3 United, February 1990
The Reds famously won the FA Cup in 1990 without playing a match at home and, after narrow 1-0 wins at Nottingham Forest and Hereford United, we were drawn against Second Division high-flyers Newcastle United at St James’ Park for a place in the quarter-final. When Mark Robins – scorer of the vital goal at the City Ground in the third round – headed home the opening goal after 19 minutes, it looked like being a comfortable afternoon for the Reds, but Mark McGhee won and converted a penalty early in the second half to draw the Magpies level.
