Thought Iβd share that Sir Bobbyβs Team, a group of football writers, will again run the Great North Run to raise money for the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation, the charity the great man described as his last & greatest team.
His legacy lives on.
Sean Longstaff, one of Newcastle Unitedβs own.

Sean Longstaff helped Newcastle United, his boyhood club, make history.
Heβs made an immense, but often unsung, contribution, and has also scored big goals on big occasions. There have been tough times too, but heβs made of tough stuff.
He'll always be one of the club's own.
#NUFC
The fact that heβs come back from so many injuries in his career says a lot about his character.

My mobile phoneβs camera roll is full of photographs. Many are photos of football grounds.
I am a stadium obsessive, but the hidden gems in my camera roll are photos of the players and personalities who have shaped Newcastle United over the years.

Geoff Thompson has taken South Shields a long way over the past decade.
But what does the future hold for the club?
I spoke to the clubβs owner about their remarkable journey up the leagues β and his decision to look for a buyer β for a Football Weekends magazine exclusive.
Yeah, definitely a strong argument for more than 65k.

Newcastle United fans are waiting for the club to reveal its thinking on a new Leazes Park stadium β but will it be big enough?

This summer, as rival clubs are forced to sell due to PSR issues, Newcastle United, finally, will be able to buy.

Whatever happens today, this has been a phenomenal season, Newcastle Unitedβs most successful in several generations thanks to the Carabao Cup win.
To also be pushing for Champions League football after a minimal spend in three transfer windows is just extraordinary.

Why change the best club crest in the Premier League?
The question many Newcastle United fans are asking ahead of a digital-era refinement β and the need for trust in the process.

This season, for Newcastle United fans, is the gift that keeps on giving.

Enjoyed speaking to Elliot Anderson for @fourfourtwo.com, who have compiled a list of the Premier League's 50 best players in 24/25.
Anderson's had an incredible first season at Nottingham Forest after leaving Newcastle United, and deservedly makes the list.

I have written about plenty of 'blows' during my time in the press box, and Newcastle United have again been hit hard ahead of the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool.
But the seemingly luckless club could yet make their own luck at Wembley.
