Chatting ahead of Tuesday night’s excellent win at Aston Villa, where he had to leave the field through injury, hotshot Isak reflected on the campaign to date, both personally and collectively, with the Swede comfortably the Magpies’ leading goalscorer so far.

Among the other contents of the 84-page issue – recognised as one of the league’s best last season – is a bumper historical section, increased in size for 2023/24. Club Historian Paul Joannou provides four pages, as does regular UNITED columnist Stan Gate, who brings all sorts of black and white memorabilia back to light. There’s the latest chapter of The European Years – a new regular feature looking back at each and every one of the Magpies’ continental campaigns to date – as well as the newest instalments of The Poster Boys and When Worlds Collide, the latter shining a light on a couple of both clubs’ lesser-remembered players.

There’s plenty to read about United’s Under-21s and women’s teams, including in-depth pieces with Reece Byrne, Erin Nelson and Sharna Wilkinson, and another new feature, Academy Alumni, in which we catch up with a different Magpies academy graduate every issue. This week, it’s Dan Langley, who’s now on the books at Oldham Athletic.

Sky Sports’ Pete Graves provides his latest column, while Ian Howe from NUSC.SG takes centre stage in Mags Around The World.

Furthermore, there’s ten dedicated pages on our visitors to SJP, four more for Junior Magpies, boss Eddie Howe and Dan Burn’s thoughts ahead of the game and much, much more.

UNITED will be on sale around the ground, priced at £3.50.
