They say never meet your heroes, but I was very fortunate to meet Kevin Keegan Newcastle United revealed that their former manager and player had been diagnosed with cancer before last night's game against Leeds United, fittingly a 4-3 Premier League classic.

The trouble with Marseilles amid warnings for Newcastle United fans Newcastle United fans are descending on the Mediterranean city amid warnings from police ahead of their club's Champions League fixture against Olympique Marseille.

The trouble with Marseilles, a city with a beautiful old port which police do not want Newcastle United fans to visit. At all.

This Newcastle United game looks much tougher now Newcastle United's away Premier League form is a concern for Eddie Howe – and the club's toughest tests are yet to come.

What two trips to the Stadium of Light told me about one forthcoming Newcastle United fixture.

Newcastle United, Bilbao and an idea for a special friendly Newcastle United moved up to sixth in the Champions League ahead of Eddie Howe's fourth anniversary – but the club's domestic away form is a concern.

Newcastle United, Champions League football and the definition of success this season.

Visited Brunton Park for the latest issue of Football Weekends magazine, and found a Carlisle United side on the up after back-to-back relegations.
It’s on sale now.

The Nick Woltemade price is right for Newcastle United Nick Woltemade is not the first Newcastle United striker to have his transfer fee questioned, but he's so far had all the answers.

Newcastle United’s Nick Woltemade has given the perfect on-field response after his club-record £69m transfer was questioned by Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
For now, we should forget about the price tag.

Been to that pub, it’s decent!

Steven Caldwell: Bradford, Bobby and the blue-chip brigade - Newcastle United For half an hour, it was all going so well. Almost 25 years ago, Newcastle United were 3-0 up against Bradford City at St. James' Park - and seemingly cruising into the next round of the cup.

'I remember a shooting session with him, Van Persie and Van der Vaart, they made you feel like an amateur' Ex-Newcastle United and Netherlands international picks his 'Perfect XI' Former Dutch international and Newcastle United goalkeeper Tim Krul selects his Perfect XI

Tim Krul's @fourfourtwo.com My Perfect XI of former team-mates – and the Newcastle United players who made the cut.
#NUFC

Thanks! And hopefully soon, just had an Achilles problem so had to give up MNF for a bit!

Everyone who ran today was a star, as were those who cheered along the route! ❤️

Thank you!

Hardest (and slowest) Great North Run for me today.
But thanks to the extraordinary support along the route I made it to the finish line.
Proud to again been part of Sir Bobby’s Team, running in memory of the great man to raise money for the work of the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation in the North East.

Great to speak to Tim Krul for this month’s @fourfourtwo.com.
He named four of his former Newcastle United team-mates in My Perfect XI (and two more on the bench).
Can you guess them?

Sir Bobby's Team 2025 Help Jack Ryan raise money to support Newcastle Hospitals Charity

More details on Sir Bobby’s Team 2025, and the brilliant work of the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation in the North East, here:

We sadly lost Sir Bobby Robson 16 years ago today.
Thought I’d share that Sir Bobby’s 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 United’s own.
#NUFC

Sean Longstaff helped Newcastle United, his boyhood club, make history.
He’s made an immense, but often unsung, contribution, and has also scored big goals on big occasions. There have been tough times too, but he’s made of tough stuff.
He'll always be one of the club's own.
#NUFC

The fact that he’s come back from so many injuries in his career says a lot about his character.

Newcastle United's £20m transfer 'bargain' Callum Wilson has left Newcastle United as a free agent after making a huge contribution during his five years at St James' Park.

Newcastle United’s cherished No.9 shirt was a very good fit for Callum Wilson, and there’s no bigger compliment than that.

Rolling back the Newcastle United years There were some lovely cameos in Newcastle United's latest adidas kit launch video – and a welcome nod to three players who will never be forgotten on Tyneside.

My mobile phone’s 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 club’s owner about their remarkable journey up the leagues – and his decision to look for a buyer – for a Football Weekends magazine exclusive.

Yeah, definitely a strong argument for more than 65k.
