The Magpies defender has been recognised by the Premier League for making 100 appearances in the competition.
Newcastle United defender Paul Dummett has been given an award by the Premier League for having reached a century of appearances in the competition.
The 27-year-old, who came through the ranks at St James’ Park, reached the milestone in the 1-1 draw at Watford on December 29 last year, as noted by the official club site.
As a result, Dummett was presented with the commemorative award earlier this week, and the Magpies were proud to show off his achievements on their Twitter page:
Some Newcastle fans were pleased with seeing one of the club’s homegrown players recognised in this way, and responded on the social media platform accordingly:
Others, meanwhile, were a little less impressed, either with the award’s appearance or simply with the continued general state of affairs at the club:
Dummett is currently the first-choice option at left-back for the Magpies and has been a consistent, dependable player in Rafael Benitez’s team.
He made his league debut at Manchester City in August 2013 and, spanning all competitions, has made a total of 157 appearances, scoring three goals.
Dummett has also played for Wales, having won four caps for the Dragons.
