My favourite player was Malcolm Macdonald. My brother is called Malcolm too so started to call him Mac.
I remember the return from Wembley in 1974 and going to the club in black and white and watching them come back and go into the Civic Centre from the bus and seeing them all on the balcony. I took my young daughter.

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