Chelsea 0 Newcastle United 1 – Saturday 14 March 2026 5.30pm
The photo that Newcastle United fans had all wanted to see on Saturday night!
Eddie Howe leading his team to a superb win over Chelsea.
The first at Stamford Bridge in 14 years.
Eddie Howe’s side absolutely class, every player contributing to this excellent victory.
A winning snapshot post-match.
The all important winning photo = The twenty-second of the season.
It is actually the 23rd victory of the season but they didn’t have a dressing room winning photo after Qarabag away, as the play-off tie was only halfway through.
The Newcastle United Head Coach introduced this tradition of a post-match everybody included photo following each victory, as he felt it had worked as a bonding exercise when he was at Bournemouth.
It is also a massive bonus just how much it winds up fans of certain other clubs and journalists.
‘Look at them, think they have won the Premier League / Champions League… etc etc’
I absolutely love it.
At least nine more games to go this season in all competitions, so hopefully a fair few more of these photos to come.
Hopefully more than nine matches to go as well…
