As It Was, When It Was: Season 1988-89

This is the first podcast in a new series looking back at old seasons at Newcastle United.

The Superb Norman Riley & Marc Corby talk through the season 1988-1989 which ultimately saw Newcastle United relegated from the First Division after finishing eight the previous season.

In a season of many lows and just a few spectacular highs, Marc and Norman take us down memory lane looking at all things Newcastle United from this season, and a few other clubs besides.

Marc runs the superb Youtube, Facebook and Twitter accounts 'Newcastle United, Very Rare Photographs & Videos 1980 -1994.'
