Chi Onwurah MP, a supporter of Newcastle United, has led efforts to ensure that the significance of this victory is acknowledged on a national level.
She organised an Early Day Motion (EDM) to commend the club, its players, manager Eddie Howe and his team, and the unwavering dedication of Newcastle’s fans.
The motion, which has garnered the support of multiple MPs, states: "This House recognises Newcastle United Football Club’s achievement in winning their first domestic trophy in 70 years;
"Commends the performance of the players, the contribution of manager Eddie Howe and his team, the passion and patience of the fans; and notes the lasting positive impact winning the Carabao Cup will have on the city of Newcastle and Newcastle United supporters all over the world."

"Through talent and determination NUFC overturned decades of disappointment to light Wembley with Geordie Joy.
"They went in the underdogs, but they were the masters on the night, and they should know that the impact of their win will be felt in our homes and our hearts far into the future.
"To ensure that recognition reaches the Mother of Parliaments, I have organised an Early Day Motion (EDM) recognising NUFC’s achievement in winning their first domestic trophy in 70 years and commending the players, Eddie Howe and his team and the fans as well as the lasting positive impact winning the Carabao Cup will have on the city of Newcastle and Newcastle United supporters all over the world."
The statement continued: "The EDM has been signed by a number of fellow MPs.
"I have also been collecting signatures from Newcastle Central and West constituents for a Parliamentary Petition urging the Government to congratulate Newcastle United Football Club on its achievement, and to establish a national award to recognise major group sporting achievements, as there is currently no way of rewarding a team effort as opposed to an individual’s contribution to a sport.
"The Early Day Motion and the Parliamentary Petition are ways of showing the appreciation in Parliament and Newcastle for what the lads have done on the pitch."
