* The Newcastle v Wrexham Second Division match at St James' Park on Wednesday March 28th 1979 was abandoned at half time due to rain. The score was 1-1 at the time - match void. The attendance at that match was 7,152 which was at the time the lowest post-war League crowd at the ground. When the fixture was re-staged in May the attendance had dropped even further - to 7,134.
