ON THIS DAY - March 9

Our only voided game
On this day in 1974 we had only voided game. After a FA Cup quarter-final pitch invasion at St James Park, we lost 4-3 to Newcastle United despite being 3-1 up at the time of the invasion. The FA decided that the game was not won fairly and ordered the tie to be replayed. We drew the replay 0-0 (and then lost 2-1 in the next replay) but at least judgement was done even though Liam O'Kane's scored his only goal for us in the first game!
