1951 - Newcastle United 2 Derby County 1

An old match day programme informs me that on the first of December 1951 the Rams came to St James Park for a Division 1 clash against Newcastle United. Pencil notes on the programme informed me that although the Magpies deserved their 2-1 half time lead a valiant Derby pushed them to the limits in the second half.

Newcastle: Simpson, Cowell, McMichael, Harvey, Brennan, Robledo [E], Walker, Foulkes, Milburn, Robledo [G] Mitchell

Derby County: Middleton, Mozley, Barrowcliffe, McLachlan, Neilson, Bell, Harrison, Morris, Wilkinson, Parry[J] McLaren                                    

Attendance: about 50,000
