DESCRIPTION

Very good condition. Adidas logo and club crest are embroidered with minimal colour wear to both. Club sponsor is an embroidered patch, stitched onto shirt with minimal wear to outer stitching. Player name/number are flock and heat applied. No pulls or bobbles, few small holes to lower front of shirt. Stitching and colours in excellent condition.

A turbulent start to the 1999/00 season, 4 defeats in the first 5 games, prompted the resignation of manager Ruud Gullit after just 1 year in charge. Bobby Robson was brought in to replace the Dutchman and he started with an impressive 8–0 victory, which remains the club's record Premier League home win.

Robson ensured Newcastle's survival in the Premiership with stylish attacking football to secure an 11th finish. More impressively, they were the division's 3rd highest scoring team with 63 goals from 38 games.

“The Geordie Goal Machine”



Alan Shearer. A true Newcastle United legend. The striker joined his hometown club in 1996 for a then-world record transfer fee of £15 million and quickly established himself as a fan favourite. The Geordie’s lethal finishing, physicality, and aerial ability made him a nightmare for opposition defenders. Despite not having a trophy cabinet to rival his incredible goal-scoring record, Shearer's predatory instincts in front of goal were simply unmatched. With a mammoth Premier League record tally of 260 strikes to his name, he could have probably scored with his eyes closed.
