Wor Flags are honouring the 1969 Fairs Cup winners

Tonight's display will honour the 1969 Fairs Cup-winning side with a tribute to the recently deceased Willy McFaul as part of the display.

With the Champions League final being held in Budapest, where the Magpies secured that famous victory, it just feels right.
