He left with his tail between his legs last time but he's back this time with another point to prove.
Bellamy grabbed the opener last time out against Liverpool but Newcastle won 2-1.
The only problem being was United didn't win again at home in the Premiership that season and were soon dumped out of Europe.
That of course, is an entirely different tale.
Now Bellamy - who is expected to shake off a tight groin - to play at St James' Park is ready to return and silence Gallowgate.
Love him or hate him, Bellamy's stint in Toon coincided with two seasons of top four Champions League qualification.
And it was only when he fell out with Graeme Souness that his career on Tyneside crumbled.
This time he'll be back on Tyneside and he'll have some pals with him!
Our friend Mr Bowyer will also be in Toon and the in-form midfielder will bring with him our old captain Scott Parker, who is poised to make his debut.
And then there is the small matter of Nobby Solano, who will be the only player to be certain of a good reception.
If you are a booer, then you might be out of voice by the end with so many targets!
If you are a realist, you will know that one of them is likely to score or play some part in a goal.
But don't forget there is the small matter of bouncing back from Derby.
So on the day that the East Enders are in Toon, is another soap opera ready to unfold in front of the black and white public?
WHO WILL GET THE MOST BOOS?
