Relive a memorable late-1990s era at St James' Park with the Newcastle United 1997–99 Home Retro Football Shirt.

 

Featuring the club's unmistakable black and white vertical stripes, elegant gold detailing, a contrasting black collar and the iconic Newcastle Brown Ale chest sponsor, this shirt remains one of the most recognisable Newcastle designs of the era.

 

Worn across the 1997–98 and 1998–99 seasons, the shirt is associated with a memorable generation featuring Alan Shearer, Faustino Asprilla, John Barnes, Gary Speed, Nolberto Solano and Shay Given.

 

Newcastle reached back-to-back FA Cup Finals in 1998 and 1999, while the 1997–98 campaign also brought Champions League football to St James' Park. Alan Shearer remained the defining figure of the team, scoring 21 goals in all competitions during the 1998–99 season.

  • Rec. Player Printing Options

    Printing Recommendation
    SHEARER 9 Best Overall Choice. The definitive player for this shirt era and the strongest Newcastle identity, culminating in 21 goals during the 1998–99 campaign.
    ASPRILLA 11 Best Champions League Choice. Strongly associated with Newcastle's memorable 1997–98 European campaign and one of the most distinctive player options for the first season of this shirt.
    SOLANO 24 Best 1998–99 Choice. An excellent option from the second season of the shirt and the beginning of one of Newcastle's most popular modern-era player stories.
    SPEED 11 Best Midfield Choice. A major figure during 1998–99, making 48 appearances across starts and substitute appearances and scoring five goals.
    BARNES 10 Best 1997–98 Alternative. A globally recognisable name who scored seven times during his first Newcastle campaign.
    BATTY 4 Best Cult-Era Choice. A key midfielder during 1997–98, making 47 starts and representing the hard-working character of this Newcastle generation.

     

    SHEARER 9 is the definitive printing choice for the Newcastle United 1997–99 Home Retro Football Shirt. Alan Shearer's iconic No.9 represents the strongest connection between this shirt and Newcastle United, and he remained the central figure of the team across both seasons.

    After returning from a serious injury during 1997–98, Shearer helped Newcastle reach the FA Cup Final. The following season he scored 21 goals in all competitions, comfortably finishing as the club's leading scorer as Newcastle reached another FA Cup Final.

    ASPRILLA 11 is the standout choice if the product is presented around the 1997–98 Champions League campaign, while SOLANO 24 is the strongest second-season alternative and represents the beginning of a hugely popular Newcastle career.
