Hanwell Town are set to host Newcastle United under-21s on Friday as they play against Brentford B in a friendly. 

The Geordies are based in Ealing but were reformed as a club in 1920 by people from Newcastle, hence the nickname, and they wear black and white stripes in homage to Newcastle United. 

The club still attract many people from the Northeast who have moved to London and hosting the team many fans of the club support as they play the nearby Brentford at the Powerday Stadium is an exciting moment in the history of the club. 

Tickets for the match are available on the club's website here. 

The history section of the club's website says: "In 1920 the Club was reformed, this time taking the name of Hanwell Town. Local folklore and tradition maintain that it was founded by Geordies, many of whom were demobbed servicemen after the Great War.  

"Many of them worked on major projects such Sir Robert McAlpine's construction company building the Great Western Water Treatment works pipeline from Hammersmith to Isleworth.  

"Unfortunately, the names of these playing pioneers have been lost as there are no surviving official club records from this period. 

"It was around this time that the Club began to play in the famous black and white stripes of Newcastle United.  

"Once again, financial pressures and low attendances meant that the club was always operating on a shoestring and in 1927 it folded once again.  

"Nevertheless, the link with West London was maintained and in the 1930s the Walker family from Gateshead was one of hundreds who came down from the Northeast to London in the 1936 depression looking for work.  

"It was to be the family's eldest son Ron who went on to re-establish the Geordie heritage and transform the fortunes of the Club."
