With Rob Lee, Micky Quinn, Lee Clark, John Beresford, and Peter Beardsley.
Featuring - Newcastle Legends
Rob Lee
In his first season, Lee helped Newcastle gain promotion to the Premier League for the 1993–94 season. The following few years, Lee was a key component of Keegan's team which challenged for several Premier League titles, achieving runners-up position in the 1996–97 season, earning the reputation as "the Entertainers". Such was Lee's form, Keegan gave him the title of 'Best Midfielder in Britain'. After Keegan was replaced by Kenny Dalglish in early 1997, Lee was named captain of Newcastle. Under Sir Bobby Robson, Lee turned into a more of a defending midfielder that held up the play and allowed others to get forward rather than the attacking midfielder that he had been in the mid 1990s. His 10 years at the club meant he became a hero at Newcastle.
Peter Beardsley MBE
The pacey, incisive and skilful forward Beardsley signed for Newcastle for a fee of £150,000 in 1983 was an instant hit with the Newcastle supporters, scoring and setting up spectacular goals. He formed an exciting strike partnership with Kevin Keegan and secured promotion to the first division where they remained during his time there. After 4 years on Tyneside he signed for Liverpool in 1987.
In 1993, Beardsley rejoined Newcastle for £1.5 million after being signed by his former team mate Kevin Keegan. That season they had been promoted to the Premier League where they finished 3rd. During his second spell at St James's Park he racked up 157 appearances and scored 56 goals, bringing his overall total with the club to 321 appearances and 117 goals. He is currently employed as the Reserve Team manager of Newcastle United.
