The grandson of the legendary Hughie Gallacher is backing the current crop of Newcastle United heroes to emulate the Wembley Wizard and bring silverware back to Tyneside.
Gallacher was captain when Newcastle won the league title in 1927. The Scotland striker remains the last Magpies skipper to lift the championship trophy, and scored 143 goals in 173 games for the club. His life and career were honoured this week with the unveiling of a plaque at Redheugh Boys Club, a stone's throw away from the old Redheugh Park where Gallacher finished his career as a Gateshead player.
His grandson, Andy Gallacher, was on hand to unveil the tribute to the legendary frontman almost 96 years on from his biggest moment in the black and white stripes. Andy's father, Hughie Jr, had taken ill during the week but both men will be cheering the Magpies on from their Lobley Hill home when they take on Manchester United in the Carabao Cup Final.
