I can remember watching Newcastle against Middlesbrough, on the big screen in St. James’ Park, and the sun bouncing off it (89/90 play-off season).
David Kelly was my favourite player, he left for wolves after the 92/93 promotion season. He scored vital goals and gave his all.
I can also remember being in the Gallowgate corner and not being able to see how long we had left, you had to check the co-op clock to work out which one was telling the right time to see how long the match had to go.

Newcastle United Foundation have a heritage project for fans of all ages called Toon Times.
Toon Times will culminate with a major Newcastle United exhibition at the Discovery Museum, Newcastle, although in the lead up to this event Toon Times wishes to reach out to all Newcastle United fans across the North East and further afield to get involved and share their memories, experiences, photos and memorabilia what people have collected over the years.
We are supporting the project by helping to collect NUFC memories online - fans can share their memories on the Replay Football website, simply select the Toon Times tag when submitting yours.
