So it’s The Liverbirds who we will meet in The Leegue Cup final on Sunday March 16th at Wembley!
Wembley really iz an unlucky groond for NUFC az we have lost wor last NINE competitive games there since 1974! (This doesn’t include the ridiculous Futbaall Leegue Centenary Tournament in 1988 when we played 20 minutes each way v Livaapool (won) and Tranmere (lost!)
The sorry tales of woe are az follows! ( And The Geordie Times woz at each and every one of them!🥶)
1974 FA Cup final. LOST!
1976 Leegue Cup final. LOST!
1996 Charity Shield. LOST!
1998 FA Cup final. LOST!
1999 FA Cup final. LOST!
2000 FA Cup semi final. LOST!
2023 Leegue Cup final. LOST!
Plus 2 Premyaa Leegue games v Sporz, who played there while their new stadium woz gettin built. LOST! LOST!
We were underdogs in every one of those games—and guess what?—we will be underdogs again v Livaapoool!
BUT! If we can play like we did against The Arseholes, then there iz nee reason why we cannit break this ‘jinx’ and lift wor forst domestic trophy for 70 years!
KEEP THE FAITH!
HOWAY THE LADS!🤪👍🏁
