Not particularly wanting to get dragged into yet another dull debate about the Fairs Cup but there are teams you've mentioned that didn't even finish in the top half of the table when they qualified for the 68/69 cup.
Regardless, it's ironic Sunderland fans taking the piss about us winning the fairs cup against some of the biggest clubs in Europe (at the time) when the closest you get is an away game at Swansea
Despite being roughly as shit as Sunderland for most of our recent history we've managed 132 games in Europe since 1968. Sunderland have played 4
Airport, more bridges, Bigly Market and now Legends Flags ... have to face it we just can't compete![]()
Yous got in it after finishing around 10th due to the 1 club city rule and Hamburg withdrew from the Cup at the 1/4 Final stage clearly a very important cup to themA selection of the teams in the 1969 Fairs Cup

Interpretation
The castle motif goes back to earliest times. Originally the town took its name from the "New Castle" built by order of Robert Curthose, eldest son of William the Conqueror, in 1080 and a castle was depicted on the twelfth century common seal. The earliest surviving example of the three silver castles on a red shield, dating from about 1400, is in the window on the north side of the Chancel in St. John's Church. The castle motif is repeated in the crest which is a golden lion atop a silver castle. He is holding the golden staff of St. George's pennon. The castle stands upon a wreath of red and white leaves above a fifteenth century style helmet. The supporters, two mythical sea-horses shaded in green with gold manes, fins and tails, are a reminder that Newcastle is a seaport. Both the supporters and crest were added to the shield by grant of William Flower, Norroy King of Arms, in 1575. The motto, 'Fortiter Defendit Triumphans' ('Triumphing by Brave Defence') was adopted during the Civil War, following the stubborn defence of the town against the Scots in 1644.
I know all about the history of them, and the connection with the local council etc, I just think they're ridiculous and a poor choice for NUFC.
As the council own SJP I expect it was part of the deal to get a cheaper deal on the rent![]()
Does winning a place via finishing in the league at the correct qualifying positions count? If not then scratch off a whole host of other clubs achievements too.Yous got in it after finishing around 10th due to the 1 club city rule and Hamburg withdrew from the Cup at the 1/4 Final stage clearly a very important cup to them
How many through winning something ?

Tongues poking out, eyes totally glazed over and webbed feet ..... and what's that creature in the castle waving a red & white flag?

Has Newcastle ever qualified for Europe by actually winning anything?
