Newcastle United 4-3 Nottingham Forest - FA Cup Quarter-Final (Saturday 9th March 1974)
After Pat Howard was sent off and Forest went 3-1 up with a penalty, several hundred fans invaded from the Leazes End. Referee Gordon Kew took the players off for eight minutes, but when the game was restarted Newcastle came back to win 4-3 - reports suggested the linesman was too scared to flag Bobby Moncur’s winner offside. “The Newcastle supporters put us out of the Cup,” says Forest manager Allan Brown. Thirty-nine fans were charged, 23 hospitalised (two with fractured skulls) and 103 treated for minor injuries. The FA ruled that the game should be replayed at Goodison Park (“I half-expected a ridiculous solution and they came up with one,” said Malcolm Macdonald) and Newcastle won 1-0, again at Goodison, after a 0-0 draw. As a result of the trouble Newcastle were ordered to play all their 1975 Cup games away.

At the age of 13yrs that was the most exciting 90 minutes of my life. Indeed, I’m not sur hat anything has surpassed it since.

A couple of things I took away from this: 1 - of all of football's faults back in those days, it's sad that we've gotten used to players hassling the ref on a constant basis. Here it's just 1 guy and as soon as he persists on arguing he's off the pitch. It'd be lovely if we could return to that. 2 - that little ticker in the top right at the end brought back a bit of nostalgia I didn't think I had!

When I worked for the PFA Pat Howard was my boss.I reminded him about this ...he was always evasive and felt a tad responsible for what happened. Remember Forest got KO d in the replay and Newcastle went to Wembley Oops Big Pat

Remember it well as a young 14year old Burnley fan who waited to see we would play in the semis.

@@davidcook7743 Yes I knew as soon as I posted it. You won a second replay from memory. Forest did agree to play on but probably under a bit of pressure. And they probably thought they might not win a replayed match. Great footage though, I remember watching it as a kid.

Absolute bull. Most of these 'hooligans" were school kids who couldn't knock the skin off a rice pudding. We went from 1-3 to 4-3 with 10 men and Forest wanted it replayed with 3-1 lead and against 10 men with 20 or so minutes left. Own it, you got beaten....TWICE

I was at the match to, age 15, i was actually the lad who ran across the pich on yhe day, nothing to do with being a hooligan i was running away in a panic after getting out of the leazes end because of the crush and a police came running at me so i ran blindly across the pich. I did not realise till years later it was me on the start of every match of the day lol.

Can't believe it! This poor quality match should be abandoned the moment those scumbags invaded the pitch. The game was so slow, full of horrendous ball control and subpar techniques

It was nearly 50 years ago. Pitch technology was more or les non existent what did you expect? The football, stadiums, TV coverage and pitch tech you enjoy now is thanks to this era of ‘poor’ quality.
