Newcastle United fans lined the streets of the city to celebrate a sight not seen on Tyneside for 70 years – an open top bus parade after winning a domestic trophy.

Eddie Howe’s team beat Liverpool 2-1 in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley earlier this month, ending the club’s long wait for silverware.

Newcastle United won the 1955 FA Cup – an event marked with a single-decker bus parade through the city centre – and the Inter Cities Fairs Cup, a European competition, in 1969.
