1 Matches 23 September 1972 Newcastle 3 Leeds United 2 First Division St James Park 38,962 Scorers: Clarke, Jones Newcastle United: McFaul, Craig, Clark, Gibb, Howard, Young, Barrowclough, Smith, Macdonald (Hodgson), Tudor, Hibbitt Leeds United: Harvey, Reaney, Cherry, Bremner, Charlton, Hunter, Lorimer, Clarke (Jordan), Jones, Giles, Bates Leeds United travelled to play Newcastle United at the end of September 1972 in good heart after a series of results that had eased the memory of a grim 4-0 opening day defeat at Chelsea. They had won five and drawn one of their six home games and were unbeaten on their travels since the drubbing at Stamford Bridge. Nevertheless, one had to go back to September 1968 for United s previous victory on Tyneside and that was only the second victory at St James Park since Leeds regained their First Division status in Their previous visit, on 19 April 1972, had seem them lose by virtue of a Malcolm Macdonald goal after 81 minutes. That reverse severely hampered United s pursuit of the League title and was well deserved by an industrious and determined Newcastle team. Manager Don Revie was under no illusions about the size of the task facing his men, saying: Newcastle usually manage to give us a hard fight up there. I don t expect tomorrow s match to be The Yorkshire Evening Post of 23 September 1972 carries the news of an extraordinary game different. We will have to try to clamp down on Macdonald and we must also keep a close watch on Terry Hibbitt, too. It is nice to see Terry doing so well at Newcastle but we shall try not to allow him much space in midfield tomorrow. Under manager Joe Harvey, Newcastle were rebuilding after winning the Fairs Cup in 1969, when they repeated Leeds success of the previous year. Hibbitt and Macdonald had both been signed in 1971, along with John Tudor and Pat Howard, while speedy winger Stewart Barrowclough had joined from Barnsley a year earlier. Newcastle finished 11th the previous season, though the defeat of Arsenal and a 3-0 victory at Coventry over the fortnight just ended had hinted that they were heading in the right direction. - Matches 23 September 1972, Newcastle United 3 Leeds United 2 1
2 For Leeds, David Harvey recovered from a cold to continue in goal, but Paul Madeley (ankle) and Eddie Gray (thigh) were both unavailable, while Terry Cooper was still missing after fracturing his leg at Stoke in April. Paul Reaney for Madeley was the only change to the side that had come from a goal down to beat Leicester City 3-1 a week earlier. Mick Bates continued to deputise for Gray while the veteran, Jack Charlton, continued to show there was life in him yet as he kept summer signing Roy Ellam on the sidelines. In the Newcastle ranks, Terry Hibbitt was made captain for the day against his former Elland Road colleagues in the absence of the injured Bobby Moncur. Hibbitt lost the toss to Billy Bremner, who elected to let the home side kick off. United s captain soon had reason to regret that decision, for Newcastle opened the scoring after just 35 seconds play. The Magpies moved swiftly onto the attack with a long ball forward by Hibbitt pressuring Leeds. Charlton cleared from the middle of United s penalty area but the ball only found right-back David Craig, who went for a one-two down the right with Malcolm Macdonald. However, the ball instead found Jimmy Smith on the corner of the penalty area. The languid Scottish midfielder took the ball on a stride to get it out from under his feet before firing a shot across Harvey and in off his right hand post to open the scoring. If the goal shook Leeds, they did not show it and inside 60 seconds they had drawn level. Reaney s long clearance from deep on United s right was won in the air by Allan Clarke. The ball was collected by Mick Jones, who turned and laid it back for the oncoming Clarke. There was a token narrowing of the space by Hibbitt but to no avail and the opportunist England forward took careful aim and, cutting his right foot across the ball, fired in a delectable swerving drive. It curled, as if at Clarke s will, round the despairing dive of Newcastle goalkeeper Iam McFaul is helpless to prevent Allan Clarke's swerving equaliser Newcastle keeper Iam McFaul and inside the far post. A quality goal from a quality goalscorer, replayed many times on Match of the Day that season. It was a breathtaking start to the action and the excited crowd cheered with pleasure at the quality of the forward play. In the seventh minute Newcastle regained the lead. After a partial headed clearance from Charlton, Bates ballooned the ball deep into the Newcastle half. A home defender beat Jones to the ball in the air and it came sailing back into the Leeds half. Jimmy Smith beat first Bremner to the high ball and then Cherry to the ground challenge and Barrowclough took up play. The winger took on Norman Hunter down the right wing and went outside him at pace to loop a waist high cross towards the near post. Tudor bravely got to it ahead of the diving Harvey and flicked his header into the net. Again Newcastle could only maintain their lead for a minute. Leeds broke quickly out of defence - Matches 23 September 1972, Newcastle United 3 Leeds United 2 2
3 and Johnny Giles held the ball up in midfield before artfully playing Reaney onto the overlap down the right. The full-back s control was poor, though, and the ball fell to Newcastle left-back Frank Clark. He passed back to centre-back David Young to the left of the home penalty area. As Peter Lorimer and Clarke converged on him to apply the pressure, Young panicked and attempted to find his keeper with a back pass. He misjudged it fatally with McFaul far closer to him than he realised. The ball went into space on the six-yard line and Jones was onto it instantly to bundle the ball over the line as the keeper attempted vainly to get back. So, 2-2 after eight minutes with the crowd brimming over with excitement at the quality of the attacking play, if not the defensive performances. It couldn t last, though, as both back fours started to apply a tighter grip. Nevertheless, the fare continued to be entertaining with both teams committed to winning the game. Cherry had his name taken for the second week in succession and third time in the season when he tugged Barrowclough s shirt while attempting to stop the lively winger as the home side built another move down the right. Newcastle's John Tudor has just headed past David Harvey to put his side 2-1 ahead with Malcolm Macdonald joining in the celebration A long clearance by Charlton, playing in his final First Division match in his native North East, led to Jones heading in a cross from the left after 20 minutes, but the goal was disallowed for offside. United were awarded a free kick in the 25th minute when Smith stopped Bremner by pulling his shirt but the referee satisfied himself with a lecture for Smith and declined to take his name. Bates was not so fortunate on the half hour when he was booked for bringing down Macdonald. There was a third caution in the 32nd minute when Frank Clark felled Lorimer. The home side were quickest to the ball at both ends of the field as play swung from end to end in thrilling fashion. McFaul gathered a high cross from Giles under pressure from Jones and at the other end Harvey pulled down an 18-yard shot from Tudor. Allan Clarke needed treatment for an ankle injury following a hard tackle by Howard near the touchline and resumed with a heavy limp. He played on for a further five minutes before going down again and needing further treatment. This time trainer Les Cocker led Clarke to the far touchline and while he was doing this Don Revie sent Joe Jordan on, failing to see the frantic waves from Clarke and Cocker indicating that the England striker was fit to continue. The referee was emphatic that the substitution had been made and Jordan stayed on, Clarke trailing round the edge of the pitch with an unimpressed air. Bremner hurt his back in an incident involving Smith and played on, obviously in some pain. Harvey came to United s rescue just on half time when Macdonald, whose speed took him roaring past a strangely lethargic Hunter, avoided a late tackle by Cherry. The Newcastle striker, the country s top goalscorer, sped away on a clear run to United s goal. Harvey, racing out, blocked the - Matches 23 September 1972, Newcastle United 3 Leeds United 2 3
4 shot and the game reached the interval with the teams still on equal terms. The biggest attendance of the season at St James Park had seen some entertaining play from both sides and the game was still very much in the melting pot when the second half began. Charlton blocked a fierce shot from Barrowclough and a couple of minutes later Cherry brought off a fine tackle on the lively winger. Newcastle did most of the pressing in the first ten minutes of the half. Harvey went up to gather a centre from Gibb and moments later it was Gibb again with a run down the right and a fine centre for Tudor, who headed over the bar. Bremner had his name taken in the 48th minute after Smith had been brought down, although the caution appeared to be for an offence which happened after the whistle had gone. Barry Foster in the Yorkshire Post: Leeds began to look more and more vulnerable in defence, though Charlton, at 37 had a fine game. He had too much to do, however, on a day when few things would go right for the usually reliable Hunter. After 61 minutes, Newcastle regained the lead. Goalkeeper McFaul bowled the ball out over arm to David Craig, who fed on to Smith on the right. The Scottish schemer made space for himself and glanced forward before curving a ball unerringly forward with the outside of his right foot to find Tudor, carefully marshalled by Hunter, touch tight to his back. The striker turned the ball wide right to Tommy Gibb who advanced into the acre of space down the side of the Leeds area before cutting the ball back across the box. Barrowclough and Reaney both went for it but the full-back was tricked by the winger s dummy and the ball ran on to Macdonald at the far post. He had time and space to take aim, swinging the ball right footed back across Harvey and low into the net. Supermac, Malcolm Macdonald, in typical all action pose, scored the winner but didn't have that great a game Cherry and Macdonald were hurt five minutes later in a challenge as the Leeds man cleared downfield. Cherry soon recovered but Macdonald, suffering from an injury to his left ankle, was eventually carried off to be replaced by the young substitute, Gordon Hodgson, making his second first team appearance. Hundreds of young Newcastle fans came on to the field in the closing stages, under the misapprehension that the referee had blown for time. They were quickly dispersed by police and the game restarted. They were able to celebrate for real moments later when the final whistle did sound. It was a disappointing result for Leeds, but great entertainment for the large crowd. As Don Revie said afterwards, Naturally we are disappointed at being beaten, but it was a privilege to see the game. This type of football must bring the crowds back. - Matches 23 September 1972, Newcastle United 3 Leeds United 2 4
5 Don Warters in the Yorkshire Evening Post: On a day when little went right for Hunter, and the Leeds defence was stretched to cope with the speedy attacks of the Tynesiders, there was a sterling display from Jack Charlton, and an untiring stint from skipper Billy Bremner, who was cautioned in the second half. Jones, too, put in a non-stop performance and Clarke s artistry stood out boldly before he was injured. United had made a full contribution to a memorable day s play and had nothing to apologise for, though the result dropped them from third to fifth in the League, just a point behind early leaders Liverpool with ten games played. They would lose just one more match on their travels before mid- February as they started to step up their championship challenge. For Newcastle, the rest of the campaign marked the start of a small scale revival. They could only finish ninth in the table, but captured the Anglo-Italian Cup, beating Fiorentina in the final in June, and made it to the FA Cup final the following season. Jimmy Jinky Smith, with a hand in all three of Newcastle s goals, was the Geordies man of the match, giving one of the finest performances of his six years at St James Park. According to Barry Foster in the Yorkshire Post, he showed what a commanding figure he can be in midfield with Gibb and Hibbitt at his side. Smith, four times capped by Scotland, was signed by Newcastle from Aberdeen for a club record 100,000 in July 1969 and became a popular player among the club s supporters with his ball control and trickery. Awash with money from the Fairs Cup triumph, manager Joe Harvey was determined not to hand it over to the tax man, so went off looking for an eye-catching entertainer to wow the Geordies. Joe loved scouting in Scotland and came back with Jinky for a record fee, smiled coach Dave Smith. I liked players who walked quickly with a purpose, who looked as though they were up for the job, and when Jinky came over on his first day with that slow gait of his I thought: Oh, hell, what have we got here? The guy was never out of first gear. He could be frustrating, have you tearing your hair out, or in raptures with his skills. I always remember when we were on tour in Canada, Jinky picked up the ball in our left-back position and dribbled it for fully 60 yards up the touchline with the outside of his right boot. Things like that stick out in your memory. The lad could play all right. Jinky Jim Smith, a gifted if erratic Scottish midfielder Smith s career nosedived badly after he was blamed for breaking the leg of Birmingham full-back Tony Want in December Joe Harvey said, Jimmy doesn t seem to want to play and I have no intention of playing him. Smith retaliated by saying, I always carry the can and I am sick of it. Whenever anything goes wrong the boss immediately drops me. Smith retired with a knee injury in 1976 aged just 29. He lost a fortune through gambling and liked a drink, suffering a heart attack in his fifties. He ended up working as a taxi driver. - Matches 23 September 1972, Newcastle United 3 Leeds United 2 5
