Newcastle supporters will arrive at Wembley on Sunday to find 32,000 black-and-white scarves waiting in their seats.
Mail Sport can reveal that Sela, the club’s front-of-shirt sponsor, have arranged for a limited-edition scarf to be placed in the seat of every fan attending the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool.
The gesture is thought to be one of the biggest of its kind at a single football match. Sela organised for 6,000 Newcastle fans to be given a scarf before the FA Cup win at Sunderland last season.
But this initiative is on a different scale and is sure to create an iconic scene when the teams emerge ahead of kick-off.
