| 04.10.1997 | Ian Walker kept Tottenham
in the game for long periods before Newcastle hit a last minute goal to
take the three points.
Both Les Ferdinand and David Ginola tested Newcastle keeper Shay Given, with Howey's foul on Dominguez in the area waved away by the ref. That perhaps equalled out Mabbutt's challenge on Ketsbaia in the box that brought the midfielder down without punishment. Magpies defender Warren Barton had hit the bar in the 76th minute and Walker denied Ketsbaia and Rush, but could only parry Batty's 20 yard shot and Barton converted the loose ball for the winner.

| 28.12.1996 | Spurs slumped to a big

Allan Nielsen getting Spurs what was a mere consolation goal.

the scoring on 22 minutes, before former Magpie Chris Waddle hit the second Spurs goal
from a free-kick soon after. Spurs continued to make goalscoring
opportunities, but Dave Beasant in the Newcastle goal performed heroics
to keep the score down in this Division One game.

| 03.09.1988 | Paul Gascoigne found
himself making his debut at his old ground, as the postponement of
Tottenham's home Division One match against Coventry City made this the
season's opener for Spurs.
Welcomed back by a shower of Mars Bars every time Gazza went near the touchline, the midfielder was part of the Tottenham team that found itself 0-2 down early on to goals from Andy Thorn and Darren Jackson. However, Chris Waddle hit a volley into the net to bring Spurs back into the match, then Walsh and Waddle worked a short corner routine to set up Terry Fenwick to head in the equaliser.

Micky Burns opened the scoring for the visitors after 62 minutes, netting after Malcolm Macdonald's shot bounced back off the bar, then the burly striker Macdonald hit the other two goals to give the Magpies a comfortable win, as Martin Chivers makes his final Spurs appearance. Spurs -

| 21.01.1976 | Newcastle progressed to the
League Cup final by winning this semi-final second leg 3-1 to go through
3-2 on aggregate.
Goals from Alan Gowling, Glenn Keeley and Geoff Nulty saw the Magpies through to Wembley, while Spurs could only muster a response of one goal from defender Don McAllister. The third minute opener from Gowling put the Magpies level on aggregate and then they went further ahead through a 46th minute goal from defender Keeley and his fellow back four man Geoff Nulty made it 3-0 on the night with a goal ten minutes into the second half. An hour had passed when McAllister got one goal back, but Tottenham could not force an aggregate equaliser and went out of the competition. Newcastle United -

| 14.01.1976 | Spurs grabbed the
initiative at the half-way stage of this League Cup semi-final after the
first leg 1-0 win.
A single strike from John Pratt gave Tottenham the win, but an inspired display in goal from Pat Jennings kept Newcastle at bay as they pushed forward to gain an equaliser. Referee Clive Thomas played a good advantage when defender Geoff Nulty stopped John Duncan's header from Terry Naylor's cross from going in with his arm. The match official let play continue and Pratt seized the loose ball to crack home a fierce shot. The last half hour was a backs-to-the-wall effort by Tottenham, as Newcastle pushed for an equaliser, but Jennings saved everything which was thrown at him, producing a stunning save from a drive from Tommy Craig which saw him arch backward to punch the dipping shot away for a corner. Spurs -

| 04.10.1975 | A
record-breaking 419th League appearance in this match by Pat Jennings
broke the existing honour, held by goalkeeper Ted Ditchburn. However, he did have a lot to do on that afternoon at St. James' Park.
John Tudor gave the Magpies the lead and Stewart Barrowclough extended that lead to 2-0 after the break. However, John Pratt and John Duncan hit back to earn Spurs a point on their visit to the North-East.

hit two in the first half, which ended 4-0 to Spurs with further goals
from John Duncan and Cyril Knowles.
Into the second half, Micky Burns reduced the deficit, but on 63 minutes, Conn completed his treble and it was left to Tommy Craig to notch an 80th minute goal to make the score a little more respectable. Newcastle United -

lead through John Tudor and Terry McDermott in this First Division match
at the Lane. Tudor hit and early goal and McDermott scored just before half-time to put the Magpies into a good lead at the break. However, Spurs hit back with two goals from free-kicks. Chivers headed home Peters' cross and then Ray Evans hit a dead ball onto Alan Gilzean's head and he set up Peters, who scored. With the final whistle looming, the ref awarded Spurs a penalty for a push by Bobby Moncur on Gilzean and Chivers strode up to hit home the spot-kick for a late winner. Spurs -
Evans, Peters, Chivers, Gilzean. |
| 30.08.1972 | A rare Joe
Kinnear goal earned Spurs both points at St. James' Park. With the game being played on a summer's evening, Spurs put on a fine display with some very good football and a goal early in the second half was enough to secure the points. It was a neat free-kick routine that produced the winner, with Kinnear touching the ball to Steve Perryman, who chipped over the defensive wall for the Irish defender to run onto his pass and smash the ball into the net for what would be his last goal for Tottenham.

Greaves two goals included a truly memorable one where he seized onto a
Mullery clearance from a Newcastle corner and ran from the edge of his
own area goalwards with a posse of Toon players chasing him. Iam
McFaul, in the away goal, came out to close him down, but Greaves took
the ball around him and stroked it into an empty net.

| 31.12.1966 | Spurs won this First Division meeting 4-0 against a Newcastle side including three debutants. Former Spur Jim Iley was the captain of the Geordie team including Dave Elliott, John McNamee and Tommy Robson in their first game for the North-East side. With 30 minutes gone, Dave Mackay opened the scoring from Jimmy Robertson's partially cleared free-kick as he rifled home a left foot shot. It was a couple of minutes later when Terry Venables' free-kick was hit against the post by Robertson for Jimmy Greaves to turn in to add a second. Eddie Clayton was on for Mackay, who bruised an ankle and his through pass five minutes into the second half set Greaves away for his second goal. Venables helped himself to the fourth after Alan Gilzean set him up with a pass in from the left wing for the midfielder to rattle the ball home in the 58th minute. Spurs - Mackay
(Clayton), Venables, Robertson, Gilzean, Greaves.

| 22.03.1961 | Les Allen's
goal opened the scoring, but an inspired performance from Dave Hollins
in the Newcastle goal made the points the Magpies' on their trip to
London.
Hollins saved a Blanchflower penalty four minutes before the break and then Mackay's header hit the bar, with Cliff Jones and Bobby Smith (twice) were denied by goal-line clearances. In the 64th minute, Ivor Allchurch headed an equaliser, with Albert Scanlon netting the winner 15 minutes later. The Newcastle keeper was not finished and produced a fine save to stop Terry Dyson bringing the scores back level near the end. Spurs -

| 29.10.1960 | A seven
goal thriller saw Spurs take three points on their travels to St. James'
Park.
Len White scored two solo first half goals to give the Magpies a half-time lead, although Maurice Norman had limited the lead with a header from a corner. In the second period, White nipped in to seize on the hesitancy in the home defence, before Cliff Jones shocked the home crowd to put Tottenham in the lead, despite being in what looked an offside position. With just five minutes left, Bobby Smith put away Les Allen's pass to make it 4-2, but Gordon Hughes struck to make the final moments tense. Spurs held on to record their 14th unbeaten match from the start of the Double Season. Newcastle United -

| 17.01.1959 | Conditions
nearly wiped out the game, but it got the Noon nod to go ahead and
Tottenham matched the home side's striker Ivor Allchurch woodwork strike
with Dave Dunmore's effort smacking the bar. Cliff Jones
engineered the opening goal with a left wing run that ended with Dunmore
knocking home the loose ball to put Tottenham ahead on 25
minutes.
The lead was doubled just seconds after the break, when Spurs kicked off and scored without a United player touching the ball !! Harmer to Medwin to Dunmore and he did the rest, rounding the goalie and slipping the ball home for his second of the game. Newcastle were not going to give up without a fight and when Len White nodded in George Eastham's corner on the hour, it looked touch and go for Spurs with the magpies piling forward, but we held out for a welcome away win.

| 28.12.1957 | An early solo goal in the
sixth minute from Len White stunned Spurs into action, taking the game
to the visitors for the remainder of the half. Smith, Robb and a
Stokes header all hit the woodwork, before Maurice Norman nodded in
Dyson's corner just before the half time whistle.
After 65 minutes, Dyson made an opportunity for Stokes to turn and shoot to give Tottenham the ascendancy, but that didn't last too long before White tied it up at 2-2. With only ten minutes left, Mitchell converted a penalty given for Hopkins foul in the box, but an award at the other end of the pitch for handball saw Harmer hammer the spot-kick past Simpson to earn Tottenham a draw. Spurs -
Ditchburn, Hills, Hopkins, Blanchflower, Norman, Ryden, Robb, Harmer,
Bobby Smith, Stokes, Dyson |
| 30.04.1955 | White Hart Lane saw Spurs secure a 2-1 win over the Magpies at the Lane with the second goal being a bizarre one. Bob Stokoe hit a long back pass in the 40th minute that flew past goalkeeper Ronnie Simpson to put Tottenham one up. Spurs were already ahead through a 20th minute effort from Johnny Gavin, but Bobby Mitchell's goal on the hour reduced the lead, but Tottenham held on for the victory. Spurs -
Reynolds, Baker, Withers, Blanchflower, Clarke, Marchi, Gavin, Brooks,

An incredible match at St. James Park saw eight goals shared between the
two sides. Each side had a new signing in the team - Tottenham
used Johnny Gavin newly arrived from Norwich City and the home side gave
a debut to Bill Patterson bought from Doncaster Rovers.
Spurs went into the lead, when Sid McClellan shot over Mitchell in the Newcastle goal from 25 yards, but with 14 minutes gone Charlie Crowe pulled the score back to 1-1. Jackie Milburn played in Ivor Broadis to give Newcastle a 21st minute lead, but this only lasted 12 minutes, as Eddie Baily netted to equalise. A minute before half time, Len White restored the Magpies advantage, but a minute after the interval McClellan struck again to make it 3-3 and in doing so, collided with Mitchell, who had to leave the field and was replaced in goal by right half Jimmy Scholar. Baily put Spurs ahead with 25 minutes left, but five minutes later, Broadis tied the game with a deflected shot off Harry Clarke and the score remained 4-4 until the end of a very eventful match.

| 19.09.1953 | Spurs survived a penalty award to go on and win this game at St. James' Park. Sonny Walters had given Tottenham the lead in the first half, but a matter of minutes later, the home side were given a penalty, which Jackie Milburn took, only to see Ted Ditchburn turn the ball away and save the follow-up by George Hannah. Milburn did beat Ditchburn in the second half to make the score 1-1, but a storming finish by Spurs saw George Robb and Eddie Baily score to put the Lilywhites 3-1 up by the end.

Newcastle got revenge for the big win of the previous season as they hit Spurs for seven to put Spurs to the sword. It was 4-1 to the Magpies by half-time, with two Mitchell goals and Tommy Walker and George Robledo hitting one each against Jimmy Scarth's strike for Spurs. Into the second half, Les Bennett pegged another goal back just after half-time, but Newcastle went on to add further goals from Robledo 2 and Ernie Taylor to make Tottenham's long trip North one to forget.

Tottenham were clear at the top of the table, but Newcastle made it hard for them to gain their single goal victory. Arthur Willis' free-kick was met by Sonny Walters, who beat Jack Fairbrother in the home goal. With Les Bennett injured early in the match, it made the going tough for Tottenham, but Ted Ditchburn was in fine form to thwart Newcastle when they got in on goal. However, at the other end, only a fine Fairbrother save denied Baily doubling the score for Spurs.

| 18.11.1950 | On their
way to the Championship, Spurs showed exactly why their play deserved
the title in this season.
At the time of this game Newcastle sat second in the table, while Spurs were two places below, but they made the table look ridiculous with a performance of stunning simplicity, despite going into the game without influential midfielder Ron Burgess. Five minutes into the game, Spurs were ahead with Les Bennett finishing a great passing move and this was added to by goals from Eddie Baily and two from Les Medley before the interval. A long range shot from Sonny Walters made it 5-0 ten minutes into the second half, before Medley completed his hat-trick and Alf Ramsey wrapped up the magnificent seven from the penalty spot to secure the two teams swapping places in the League.
