    Youth Cup tonight

    For anybody with a bit of time on their hands.


    This evening sees United's U18 side look to take advantage of a third successive home draw in the FA Youth Cup this season, when QPR visit St. James' Park.

    Kick-off is at 7pm and the tie will be settled on the night via 30 minutes of extra time and/or penalties if required.

    Prices are £3 for adults and £1 concessions, payable at the turnstiles, with the East Stand open as usual. Please note that season tickets and memberships do not allow free entry in this competition - everyone pays.

    And at stake is yet another home tie, with Blackburn's 4-0 win over Stoke City on Monday night meaning that the Ewood youngsters will now be heading to either Tyneside or West London in the Quarter Finals.

    Squad: Baird, Mitchell, Riley, Streete, Storey, Turton, Logan, Toland, Smith, Miele, Sayer, Knight, Maddison, Hoganson, Campbell, Hooper.

    From NUFC.com.

    Could be a good chance to see the stars of tomorrow lifting a pot, and at £3 it would be a good investment.

    Half-time:
    Newcastle U18s 0 QPR U18s 1

    The visitors went in front against the run of play in the 25th minute when Louis Storey conceded a free-kick down the right and it was swung over and Ben Brown shot through a ruck of players.

    Ten minutes later United almost got back on level terms when Dennis Knight's free-kick hit the post and just evaded those following in and was cleared. The resultant corner was headed in by Knight but was rightly disallowed for a foul on the 'keeper.

    And then on the stroke of half-time a great ball from Adam Campbell released Michael Hoganson but the 'keeper won the one on one and when the ball was crossed by in by Steven Logan, Knight headed it off the crossbar.

    Youth Cup victory

    Result (after extra-time):
    Newcastle U18s 2 QPR U18s 1


    United's U18 progressed into the quarter-finals of the FA Youth Cup after an extra-time victory over QPR at a freezing St. James' Park.

    The visitors went in front against the run of play in the 25th minute when Louis Storey conceded a free-kick down the right and it was swung over and Ben Brown shot through a ruck of players.

    Ten minutes later United almost got back on level terms when Dennis Knight's free-kick hit the post and just evaded those following in and was cleared. The resultant corner was headed in by Knight but was rightly disallowed for a foul on the 'keeper.

    And then on the stroke of half-time a great ball from Adam Campbell released Michael Hoganson but the 'keeper won the one on one and when the ball was crossed by in by Steven Logan, Knight headed it off the crossbar.

    After the break United bombarded the R's goal and finally seven minutes from the end of the 90, the linesman flagged for a soft spot-kick after a challenge on Marcus Maddison.

    Campbell stepped up to hit the ball coolly down the middle as the 'keeper dived out of the way. A fortunate decision but United deserved to be at least level.

    Five minutes of added time saw chances at either end but the teams finished level at the end of 90 minutes so the tie went into 30 minutes of extra-time.

    Eight minutes into the first period, Will Turton's cross from the right hand side was headed home at the near post by substitute JJ Hooper to give Newcastle a slender advantage.

    Rangers had some late chances to take the tie to penalties, including a shout for a spot-kick and there was also an added time goalline clearance but United hung on to make it into the quarter-finals and another home tie against Blackburn.

    Team: Baird, Logan (Turton 72), Riley, Sayer, Streete, Storey, Maddison, Miele, Campbell, Knight (Hooper 63), Hoganson (Toland 115).
    Subs n/u: Mitchell, Smith, Turton.

    Booked: Riley, Hoganson, Streete.

    Good on Raylor, I wonder if any of the other first teamers thought to pass on some kind of congratulations.

    Get in there. We need to keep bringing players through, particularly in view of FFP. I'm hearing rave reviews from mates who watch the 18's/reserves about Streete. They seem to think he will come through next year. Haven't seen him at all so couldn't comment. They also like Campbell but I don't think its any secret he is highly rated.

    Saw Streete play quite a while ago and he looked the business then. Good player and got a good head on his shoulders.

    Streete, Campbell and Dennis Knight are all really good players. I like Brandon Miele too who plays centre midfield, really tidy player and a good range of passing. Think we'll see Streete quite a bit in next 24 months.

    If we keep on producing youngsters the way we are and can keep them happy here we should have a good team for the foreseeable future. I just hope they don't have to leave to go to other clubs for first team football.
