Alan Shoulder - A blast from the past at NUFC NUFC
Alan Shoulder – A blast from the past at Newcastle UnitedAlan Shoulder made his name in the famous Blyth Spartans team that heroically went all the way to the 5th Round of the FA Cup in 1978.Little did Alan know that later on in the year he would get the chance to run on to the hallowed turf once again.In a surprising deal, McGarry had persuaded Peter Withe to join relegated Newcastle in the second tier from the newly crowned Division One Champions Nottingham Forest.
When Alan Shoulder arrived from Blyth Spartans in December 1978, the local tabloids were full of the rags to riches story of the non-league footballer and former pitman rocking up at the Toon., Alan caught up to the pace of League football quickly and it wasn’t long before the first signs of a little and large partnership with Peter Withe began to emerge.Although in the doldrums, we still had some canny players.
The erstwhile Tommy Cassidy was also still commanding our midfield and that meant that ‘Little and Large’ would always get chances. Aston Villa came calling to the tune of £500,000 and the rest of Peter’s career became a thing of legend.He was still a regular starter under new boss Arthur Cox but a lot of his early spark and flourish had disappeared.for fellow Second Division side Carlisle United who were managed by Bob Stokoe, on a free transfer in 1982.
