How well do you know Newcastle United players of the 1990s and 2000s? The two decades were a rollercoaster time for Magpies fans.

The team achieved promotion to the Premier League and almost won the division in the 1995/96 season when Kevin Keegan’s entertainers were pipped to the title by Manchester United.

Newcastle broke the world transfer record (£15m) to sign Alan Shearer in 1996, they finished second again in the Premier League and played in the Champions League and FA Cup finals.
