Newcastle United Women return to St. James' Park on Sunday 16th November to take on Sunderland. It's derby day, and the lasses are looking to secure back-to-back wins at home against our local rivals.

Last season's Tyne-Wear derby smashed Barclays Women's Super League 2 attendance records. 38,502 fans roared us on to victory - secured by a late Shania Hayles winner in front of a packed Gallowgate End.

This year, the stakes are even higher. The Magpies are not just chasing three points but aiming to host the biggest women's derby of the weekend, going toe-to-toe with the North London and Manchester derbies.

Manager Becky Langley, said: "We can't wait to return to St. James' Park as it's always a such a special occasion. We have already made many memories here and aim to create even more history, both on the pitch and in the stands.

"The noise that the Geordies created last season was unforgettable. We broke the league's attendance record, and we want to go even bigger this time.

"We all know that this will be a fiercely competitive game, with local pride at stake, and the supporters can give us that extra edge."

The message to Geordies is clear; show up and bring the noise. Let's pack St. James' Park. This is our city, our club, our lasses.
