There was only 17,500 there that day, I think most of us have been in bigger crowds ar the County Ground but the stands were heaving cos they were so much smaller then.

I've been going to games since my Dad took me in 92' I can't recall being in a bigger crowd Sad

Premiership season we had 3 or 4 attendances comparable but not muchbefore then we often got crowds in excess of that in cup matches, like 28,000 home to Spurs and Wolves in 79, those were the days.

I vaguely remember the Man Utd game at home sat behind the dugout when Cantona left 6 holes in John Moncurs gut.

That is simply stunning.  (Possibly the last time we beat Newcastle as well?!)

Amazing to think that folk have been watching their football at the County Ground for generations now.  We're just the latest in a very long line.  Makes me very proud, as well, to think that our future lies at the County Ground also.  We have room to expand and develop there.  Would be wrong to move away.

No, we beat them a couple of times in the league during Hoddles time. Once when Ardiles was there manager, Would have thought you'd have remembered that one!

Great footage.

We beat them 3 times in 90's....Newcastle have always found it hard going at the CG....just the one win, our record there is worse though....

That win I recall in 64....we got beat 6-1, which for years was the worst home defeat I'd seen at the CG until went down 0-6 to Ipswich.  That day we were undone by the clever scheming of Willie Penman...

Hate to admit that I left before the end of that game.  So dire.
