To put it into perspective, the Newcastle United first team have been more ‘successful’ than the reserves (Under 21s) and Academy (Under 18s) so far this season.

Great excitement (relief) on Friday night as striker Ivan Toney helped Newcastle reserves to their first win of the season at Craven Cottage.

Off work today or get a long lunch hour? Get along and watch the reserves take on Blackburn today, 1pm at Whitley Park.
