Has to be Malcolm Macdonald he brought another dimension to Newcastle, his speed (especially in superstars) all this and being asthmatic. He represented all that was typical of the Toon at the time, one game no-one could live with him, the next where are you? He was one of the first entertainers. He would have been brilliant under Keegan management years

Malcolm Macdonald - Supermac - was signed from Luton Town in 1971, scored a hat-trick on his home debut against Liverpool and went on to score 95 goals in 187 appearances before his transfer to Arsenal in 1976.
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.
