Love this pic. Especially the shell shocked Geordies on the floor.

That was ok. Better than some performances. Still not good enough, obviously, but the second half gave us hope.

I was so excited when we signed him

I was there for this derby match. I thought the messiah had arrived. He hadn’t. But that day, and that goal...Wow.

A 17yr old Danny Cadamarteri jumped into our blue world feet first, a precocious lad with pickpocket’s feet.

One of my favourite away goals, the belief of he could do anything at any moment and there was nothing anyone could do about it

The most instinctively brilliant footballer I’ve seen.
No 16/17 year old will ever be the level of complete footballer that he was in his debut season.

Agree! He really was unbelievable. I remember seeing him against Bolton at Goodison. Took on the entire team again and again (somehow didn't score)....
