Newcastle United’s award-winning matchday programme, UNITED, is back for the 2020/21 Premier League season.
And supporters can subscribe for the season to receive their programme before every home game*, including Saturday’s match against Manchester United.
For the final six home matches of last season, the club produced its first ever digital-only programme, allowing supporters to read for free on their smartphone, tablet or computer.
But by popular demand, the Magpies are producing a limited-run subscription matchday programme delivered to fans’ doors for the upcoming season.
Saturday’s programme is on sale now and is available here, priced at £3.50 plus postage (£5.25 inclusive), while subscriptions covering the whole season – priced at £95 including postage – are available here.
UNITED will be packed with 84 pages of exclusive interviews and features, plus regular columns from head coach Steve Bruce and captain Jamaal Lascelles.
In-form goalkeeper Karl Darlow, who has quite literally taken his chance with both hands after waiting more than two years for a Premier League start before the current campaign, is the star of Saturday’s edition, and is the subject of an in-depth interview.
In addition, Callum Wilson will answer supporters’ questions in Zoom Army and boxer and Newcastle fan Savanaah Marshall chats ahead of her world title fight at the city’s Utilita Arena this Saturday.
Club historian Paul Joannou remembers the Magpies’ transatlantic voyage on board the RMS Queen Mary in the 1940s, culminating with a hugely successful tour of the US and Canada – both on and off the pitch – while columnist Stan Gate provides his usual dose of nostalgia an update for collectors in The Wonderful World of Football Programmes.
Due to the Covid-19 guidelines issued to clubs, programmes will not be available to buy around the ground on a matchday, but the Magpies are launching a new subscription service which will mean UNITED is posted out on the day of each game*.
Each programme will be for a limited print run only and will be produced in conjunction with the club’s programme partners Curtis Sport on a schedule that allows them to arrive before kick-off*.
Overseas supporters will also be able to order copies but these will attract increased postage charges and delivery will not be guaranteed before matchday.
Copies of UNITED will also be available to buy in the Club Store at St. James’ Park after each game, subject to availability. A limited number of programmes from the Carabao Cup win against Blackburn and the opening home league game of the season against Brighton are still available online here.
* We will make every effort to get your programme to you in time for each game. We cannot, however, guarantee delivery by matchday due to the Covid-19 pandemic and Royal Mail scheduling.
