Brilliant memories. Great atmosphere especially during the first half when we were well on top. I remember the scoreboard wrongly credited the second goal to Kenny Wharton. Gazza got a lot of abuse that day. It wasn't because he'd left the club as such but because after announcing he was leaving to further his career he went and signed for a team who had just finished 13th in the league, five places below us that season. Chris Waddle was quoted as saying he'd had a "house brick" thrown at him from the Gallowgate end when taking the corner. Utter cobblers, I saw the incident from close quarters, it was a pebble not a brick. Still completely out or order but Waddle didn't do himself any favours by exaggerating the it out of all proportion.
+charliepeebles This was only my 2nd match, A Paddock. Such a buzz going into a packed standing enclosure and obviously 2 goals in the first 20 mins or so.....
I've got a clip up of the Waddle incident....ua-cam.com/video/FFbKCJbUZps/v-deo.html
and him being a Sunderland supporter didn't help either.
I remember people throwing Mars bars at Gazza
I was mascot at this first home game of the season. Didn't bring us much luck as we finished bottom of the league! #jinx
Still a great thing to do!
@@NewcastleUnited19801994Videos Oh it was awesome. Still remember it today. Met Mirandinha, Dave Beasant, John Hendrie and Glenn Roeder (was injured I think but in the dugout). Proper gentlemen in those days, even had time for an 8 year old kid. Probably still got some video of it if you guys are interested.
@@newcjon absolutely! Can you drop me a private message please?
@@NewcastleUnited19801994Videos I'm probably being stupid but can't work out how to private message on youtube. Alternatively you could send an email to newcjon@hotmail.com and I can send you the video there.
what these highlights fail to mention was the REAL story of this game - it was the first time gazza came back to sjp after his transfer to spurs - the abuse he got that day was unreal, capped off by him being substituted late on in the game to the noise of thousands of geordies giving him a hard time! mind you, a couple of seasons before, waddle came back after signing for spurs, and the abuse he got was unparalleled!
My uncle and cousin were standing in the K area of the Gallowgate stand and said that people were throwing mars bars at him every time he went to take a corner. A bit of a waste of mars bars mind,
Dave Beasant didn't do the Wimbledon long punt in rhis match, did he?
Only when we were chasing games. Which was futile considering our forwards were all tiny
@@NewcastleUnited19801994Videos and clearly missing the creative spark provided by Gazza.
@@mohdazmi10 exactly. Goddard too. Both were immense for us.
@@NewcastleUnited19801994Videos Goddard played well for Nrewcastle. but for me he played his best football for West Ham in the 1980/81 season.
I didn't know of him until mar Newcastle, turned 8 in 86.
I did an article on him a few years ago though as his time up here was brilliant.
the Northern Ireland manager Micheal O'Neill played wearing no 9 shirt.
Had a great 2nd half of 87/88. Ended up being top scorer on 13 iirc. Didn't work out for him during 88/89
@@NewcastleUnited19801994Videos but he has the intelligence. he should took over the no 8 shirt from Gazza.
