So You Think You Know the Toon? [5] So You Think You Know The Toon? [5] Tyne-Wear Derby Day - delights, and dismays… The first “official” Tyne-Wear Derby took place on Christmas Eve 1 1898, but who were celebrating Newcastle or Sunderland? 2 Who scored Newcastle’s first goal in a Tyne-Wear Derby? Who scored the first ever hat-trick in a Tyne-Wear Derby? 3 Look carefully at the next question before you answer. It should lead you to conclude you are NOT looking for a Newcastle player Newcastle had to wait until 1956 before they saw their first hat-trick 4 scorer, who was he? To date (2020) which Newcastle player has scored more goals 5 against Sunderland than any other? Newcastle’s record goal scorer, Alan Shearer, only ever scored 3 6 times for Newcastle against Sunderland, can you date the games? Our record defeat was 9-0 against Burton Wanderers but it was 7 against Sunderland we suffered our second biggest defeat. What was the score? Newcastle’s final visit to Roker Park was in 1996 a game they won, 8 but what was the score? Newcastle’s first visit to the Stadium of Light was in 2000, what was 9 the score in this game? Prior to Sunderland’s dramatic plunge down the leagues Newcastle 10 had a horrendous losing streak. How many games did they lose in a row, which is still a record against Sunderland? Tyne-Wear FA Cup Derbies… Newcastle East End and Newcastle West End had both met 11 Sunderland in the FA Cup, but when was the first time Newcastle “United” met them? The 1908-09 season saw Newcastle and Sunderland draw at St 12 James’s Park 2-2. What was the score in the replay at Roker Park? The 1912-13 season again saw a draw between the two in the 13 Fourth Round at Roker Park. What was the score? The replay at St James’s Park was also a drawn game, but what 14 was the score? Having played at Roker Park and then St James’s Park, where was 15 the second replay held? Tyne-Wear League Cup Derbies … Newcastle and Sunderland have only met once in the League Cup, 16 season 1979-80. What was the 1st Leg score at Roker Park? A former Newcastle “legend” scored for Sunderland in that game, 17 who was he? What was the 2nd Leg score at St James’s Park? Look carefully at 18 question 19, it should lead you to conclude this was NOT a 0-0 draw It was a former Middlesbrough “legend” who scored the first of 19 Newcastle’s goals in the 2nd Leg, who was he? The answers to Nos 16 & 17 should lead you to a quandary, in that the goals scored and conceded were equal on both sides. 20 Newcastle lost the resulting “penalty shootout”, but who was it who had his penalty saved for them thus deciding the tie? Fifth in a series of great Newcastle United quizzes from www.toon1892.com.

MONTGOMERY, IRWIN, Ashurst, Harvey, Hurley, McNab, Usher, Herd, Sharkey, Crossan and Mulhall. The names of Sunderland’s first-ever promotion team roll off the tongues of Sunderland supporters old enough to have seen them more easily than any of the club’s other promotion sides. This is partly because they were such a settled XI in the days before substitutes and partly because they remain to this day a team deeply loved by the people who watched them. Sunderland’s first promotion didn’t arrive until 1964 because, having become the first club to join the Football League’s founder members in 1890, they had been the last club to lose the proud boast of only ever having played at the top level. That first relegation came in 1958. After two seasons struggling in the lower reaches they finished sixth in 1961 and had consecutive third-placed finishes before returning to what was considered their rightful place with promotion in 1963/64.
