- "A group of players who felt they hadn't succeeded found that, to their fans, they had."
Newcastle United's losing FA Cup final team return crestfallen to the city, only to receive the kind of rapturous reception that most cup winning teams could only dream of. Geordie fans line the streets in their thousands to salute their defeated heroes. The warmth of the welcome from the Toon Army is so overwhelming it reduces Newcastle's goalkeeper Iam McFaul to tears.
The team make their way to St James' Park, to find the stadium full of supporters, eager for the players and manager Joe Harvey to do a lap of honour.
Imagine the scenes if they had won...

Leeds fan here. Newcastle fans are truly amazing & it's great to see how much passion & solidarity you have. ❤❤❤
It's a crying shame that the FA Cup has been diminished beyond recognition. Cup final day was special to the whole nation. Now that's pretty much all gone.
On Saturday there will be no celebration when City wins it
I'd love to see how they would have reacted if they won.
absolutely amazing, this footage sums up the greatness of the game in the 70s for me, Newcastle lost of course and lost badly but this reception is far more passionate than you'd see any winning side receive today especially man city(not knocking their true fans) i've been to St James' many times and the fans are brilliant even in todays sterile prawn sandwich era, it's such a shame that Newcastle side didn't win anything, on their day they were brilliant, jinky smith, terry hibbit and of course Supermac and hallelujah john tudor!
Absolutely mental. You'd have thought they'd won it not lost in what was perhaps the most one-sided cup finals ever. FELT NOWT! And that support hasn't changed even today. Clearly the best supported club of all....anywhere.
As a Liverpool fan i think the geordies deserve a great team. Hopefully they will win the league soon.
What a sycophantic load of dribble.
At Newcastle United, we don't demand a club that wins all the time. We simply demand a club that tries it's best every matchday.
Nonsense
😂
seen us win, law us lose, seen us get promoted and relegated and I'll always love it no matter what
Well said HOWAY THE LADS ..DH7 MAGS ...
@@ih8utoob51it's true. We'd obviously like them to win silverware. But we're only unhappy when the club feels like it's not trying.
Newcastle fans singing YNWA is an interesting tidbit. Not always known as that Liverpool song!
it was a very popular record back then i think, lots of fans sung it
@@aidy6000 Different times. I could not see modern football crowds singing the latest Dua Lipa song in unison!
Every club sung it back then, and right through to the early 90's.
@@Dench999or911except Liverpool 😂
@@SIRDKA Every club except Everton
Good Lord! Imagine if they had won? 😮
The geordies are a proud tribe. Miss the old yellow buses.
The 1974 fa cup was the first thing i saw on colour tv.
They played in black white lol
@@kennyw218 maybe that's why I became a Liverpool fan .
@@majordog2399 I was at the final and in the ground on the Monday night times have changed a lot
First match in 1964 aged 9 , fairs cup win in 69 and that's about it apart from a few promotions , I shudder to think what will happen when we win something . Can you really imagine what it will be like when do win something major , I have waited and waited for far too long . Seriously , my dying wish is that our dreams come true and I'll die a very happy man !!
😉 I wasn't even born in 1964 mate but I hope ya dreams come true
Not a Newcastle fan but desperately wanted them to win the league in 1996. Especially for KK and Terry Mac.
I was at the game (Liverpool fan) and was amazed at the support for the geordie fans. They were totally outplayed on the day but the fans stayed with them so this didn't surprise me.
They *had* succeeded.
In making it to the final, unlike many, many other teams.
Their local community came together to show how proud they were of their efforts.
If this seems like such a strange thing to us, I suggest that our community is in danger of relegation.
Wow! Just awesome!
Had some fantastic days at Wembley this was my first not missed one since but on the down side still never seen them win … now Seventy U.K. I’m sure under Eddy Howe we will start to win very soon … Toon Army
The Newcastle Evening Chronicle described them as "Hammered Heroes" - their performance at Wembley was pretty dire.
Yet the city, with little enough to celebrate, created a party atmosphere not seen since.
No one can celebrate failure like Newcastle. They've had 60 years of practice!
True...to which I add FELT NOWT!
I was there at Wembley. 0-0 at half time and it was anyone's game. Then in the second half, Keegan turned on the magic. There was plenty to be proud of for the Newcastle fans.
Lindsay had a goal ruled out as well. Could have been 4-0 to Liverpool.
Anything to avoid losing the deposit on the bus.
Newcastle beat Burnley in the semi-final at Hillsborough ☹️💜💙
For those who think celebrating 'just' being finalists is a bit OTT, as in terms of prestige, winning the FA Cup in the early 1970s was almost on a par with winning the league, and probably more glamorous.
Furthermore, in 1974 the FA Cup Final was one of the very few club football matches that was broadcast live on TV - and on both BBC and ITV at that!
It was also a game in which almost everyone took an interest in, regardless of whether they were football fans or not.
As a Liverpool fan I was so pleased with the result, but if Newcastle had been playing against almost anyone else, I would probably have supported them.
Alan shearer is in there somewhere
The bus looks a bit shocked too
Do Fulham when they last in '75 too
Not only did we thrash Newcastle but then sighed Mcdermott after this.
Yes you did , and what an outstanding player McDermott was , glad he returned to help us win promotion in 84 and later as king kevs no2 👍
My best night at #SJP

Kevin keegan done that to them.
Was in the leases end
its something that other clubs cannot do

@chaisoro พี่ยัต!!!!
Are they still alive, the players?
Who cares
Arsenal will do the same this season when they finish 2nd
world was a different place back then. but its still not changed much in Newcastle.. too many alcoholic cliches
... and they've been losing ever since.
Problem with the toon ?
So many great lines, but 'the office cleaning had to wait.......' as wonderfully sexist 1970's at its best, is right up there! 😂
Y’a canne beat à Geordie.
Liverpool clearly can.
