Wor Flags unveil tribute to Newcastle United legend ahead of season opener v Nottingham Forest

Ahead of the season opener against Nottingham Forest, supporters at the Gallowgate and Leazes Ends of the stadium unveiled new flags while a large banner paying tribute to long-serving physio Derek Wright was on display in the East Stand.

A large banner stating ‘Eddie Howe’s black and white army’ was also on display in the Milburn Corner.

The Gallowgate Stand banner included the phrase ‘it’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for NUFC... and we’re feeling good’.

Wor Flags displays have been a matchday staple at St James’s Park since the club was taken over back in October last year.
