Seeing his beloved Newcastle United play in a cup final is something 93-year-old John Beeby has waited a long time for.
And after 40 years as a season ticket holder and 1,726 matches, on Sunday that dream finally became reality when John travelled to Wembley to see Newcastle play in the Carabao Cup Final against Manchester United.
Being surrounded by fellow Geordies showing their support for The Magpies and soaking up the atmosphere in the grounds were just some of the highlights that created a "brilliant" day for the devoted supporter. And his daughter Erica Mansfield who accompanied him to the game said it's a memory with her dad she will always treasure.
