" With Christmas coming up, all things Newcastle United are thrust to the forefront of Geordie thinking. Well, perhaps a nice big dollop of nostalgia is best given the current state of affairs at our club. That being the case, a lot may fancy Got, Not Got: The Lost World of Newcastle United which is a jaunty journey through the colourful times of the Sixties to Nineties. Significant input from a true Geordie to make a Magpies book authentic. A fantastic collection of NUFC shirts and memorabilia, a lot of great detail." --John Gibson, Newcastle Evening Chronicle

"A compilation of anything and everything Toon related that comes into the very loose categoty of Magpie memorabilia. Be it programmes, badges, player cards or records, fans of a certain age will have their memories well and truly jogged. And thanks to the vast collection of NUFC.com reader Gavin Haigh, there's a scattering of iconic matchworn Toon shirts." --NUFC.com

"Amazing Retro Souvenirs from the Lost World of Newcastle United. Every Magpie would love these jewels." --Sabotige Times

"There's a whole series of books called Got, Not Got: brilliant books looking back at old football memorabilia." --James Brown, talkSPORT

"The authors have tapped into a rich vein of nostalgia by identifying the kind of memorabilia we will all have had at one time or another. I found myself transported back to my earlier days of watching football, swapping cards in the school playground and collecting autographs at the ground. Lovely books and they really have hit on a good formula. If they've done one for your club it's well worth the outlay to buy it - you might well find your own collection is not as complete as you once imagined it to be." --Programme Monthly & Football Collectable

"The English publisher Pitch Publishing provides a series of books with a clear penchant for soccer romance. It covers the period from 1960 to 1990, when the commercial monstrosity of the Champions League so it was not yet invented. The books are treasure chests of memories and memorabilia, such as badges, football towns, programs, shirts, scarves, long-playing plates and old elftal and stadium photos." --Panenka magazine, Holland

"The Got Not Got books play it simple, to devastating effect. Long-forgotten childhood joys unexpectedly come flooding back." --Sunday Mirror Booked! Football Books of the Month

Got, Not Got: The Lost World of Newcastle United is an Aladdin's cave of memories and memorabilia, guaranteed to whisk you back to St James' Park's fondly remembered 'Golden Age' of mud and magic - as well as a Mags-mad childhood of miniature tabletop games and imaginary, comic-fuelled worlds. The book recalls a more innocent era of football, lingering longingly over relics from the good old days - Toon stickers and petrol freebies, league ladders, big-match programmes and much more - revisiting lost football culture, treasures and pleasures that are 100 per cent Newcastle United. If you were a Junior Magpie, one of the army of obsessive soccer kids at any time from the Joe Harvey era to the early days of the Premier League, then this is the book to recall the mavericks - Macdonald, Mirandinha and Gascoigne; Keegan, Quinn and Waddle - and the marvels of the lost world of football.
