Newcastle United fans are certainly enjoying their season so far as they fight it out for a place in the Champions League places, but things could get even better as they remain in the mix for a trophy.

The Magpies are in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup and they have got a 1-0 lead over Southampton to take into the second leg. They are likely to be facing Manchester United should they reach the final, a team in direct competition with them for a top-four place.

When was the last time that Newcastle fans were able to cheer their team being the champions of something?

Newcastle trophies

The most recent time that Newcastle fans were able to celebrate a trophy was in 2017, although it was one that they wish they weren't contesting in the first place. They got back into the Premier League by winning the Championship in the 2016/17 season.

You'll have to be chatting to some of the much older Newcastle fans to here stories about Newcastle winning the FA Cup, though. Their last silverware recognised as a major trophy was back in 1969 when the Magpies lifted the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup - which is these days known as the Europa League.

  • First Division/Premier League- 4 (1904/05, 1906/07, 1908/09, 1926/27)
  • Second Division/Championship - 4 (1964/65, 1992/93, 2009/10, 2016/17)
  • FA Cup - 6 (1909/10, 1923/24, 1931/32, 1950/51, 1951/52, 1954/55)
  • League Cup - 0
  • FA Charity Shield - 1 (1909)
  • Sheriff of London Charity Shield - 1 (1907)
  • Texaco Cup - 2 (1973/74, 1974/75)
  • Inter-Cities Fairs Cup - 1 (1968/69)
  • UEFA Intertoto Cup - 1 (2006)
  • Anglo-Italian Cup - 1 (1973)

When were Newcastle last in a final?

Whilst Newcastle fans may be set for a lot more success in the near future, it is a very long time since their fans travelled down to Wembley en masse for a cup final. That was back in 1999 when they were beaten 2-0 by Manchester United in the FA Cup final.

That is why heading down for a potential Carabao Cup final would be a first for so many of the current Newcastle fan base and they would certainly be travelling in great numbers.

For the League Cup itself, they have only been in that final one time before. That was in 1976 and it also ended in defeat, this time to Manchester City.

How they have done in the Carabao Cup so far?

Newcastle have not exactly sailed through to the semi-final of the Carabao Cup. They needed a penalty shoot-out to knock out Crystal Palace before narrowly beating Bournemouth 1-0.

The quarter-final was more simple as they beat Leicester City 2-0, and a dramatic game in the semi-final first leg at St Mary's ended 1-0. They are certainly the favourites to get through to the final with Southampton struggling for form.

The Saints have found a safe haven in the cup competitions but they will have their work cut out to turn it around at St James' Park.

Considering Manchester United beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 away from home in their semi-final first leg, you'd think that they are the team waiting for either Newcastle or Southampton at Wembley.
