Playing Manchester City and watching Len White collect from the goalkeeper and running the length of the field beating four or five men in the process and scoring at the Gallowgate end, been a United fan since 1951 and have seen them all and I still think White was the best centre forward I ever seen in a black and white shirt and this includes Macdonald, Shearer et al

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.
For more info contact the Toon Times Heritage Project Coordinator, Newcastle United Foundation, gavin.ferry@nufc.co.uk
