1992 and #OnThisDay at Selhurst Park, David Phillips scored this acrobatic effort against Crystal Palace. #ncfc #otbc
13/09/93, 2-1 down and with 14 minutes to go, Newcastle United produce a remarkable turnaround at St. James’ Park to win 4-2. Late goals from Andrew Cole, Alex Mathie & Malcolm Allen earn the Magpies their second victory of the season #NUFC #SWFC

12/09/93, Mike Newell’s second half strike gives @Rovers a valuable 3 points on the road, as Blackburn win 1-0 at Anfield and moves them onto 14 points, only 2 points off the leaders #BRFC #Rovers #LFC

11/09/93, Man Utd lose their unbeaten record, going down 1-0 at Chelsea, their first defeat in 17 league games. Arsenal join them on 16pts thanks to a Kevin Campbell hat-trick against Ipswich. Leeds end their run of 24 away league matches without a win, beating Southampton 2-0
#OTD in 1993, Paul Warhurst moved to Blackburn for £2.7m, 3 weeks after signing a 4-year deal with Sheffield Wednesday. Warhurst moved into more of a midfielder role in his 4 years at Ewood Park, the pinnacle being a Premier League winners medal in 94/95 #BRFC #Rovers #OnThisDay
#OTD in 1993, Manchester Utd beat West Ham 3-0 to take a 3 point lead at the top. Sheffield Wednesday, who score 3 goals in 11 second half minutes, are denied their first victory of the season when Norwich score 3 themselves in the following 13 mins #MUFC #SWFC #NCFC #OnThisDay
#OTD in 1993, Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan is struck on the head in an incident with a fan during their 1-1 draw at Ipswich, Chris Kiwomya cancelling out Andrew Cole’s earlier well-worked goal. Only 6,036 witness Wimbledon’s 1-0 win over Southampton.

#OTD in 1993, a brilliant 12th minute strike from 36-year old Gordon Strachan is enough to separate the sides, as Leeds beat Oldham on Monday Night Football #LUFC #OAFC #OnThisDay

#OTD in 1993, it ends honours even in Alan Shearer’s northeast homecoming as his late goal cancels out Andrew Cole’s earlier second half strike #NUFC #BRFC #Rovers #OnThisDay
