Newcastle United Away Shirt 2000/01

Newcastle United’s 2000/01 season was a difficult transitional year under Sir Bobby Robson. The squad was in need of renewal, and injuries to key players like Alan Shearer hampered progress. Youngsters such as Kieron Dyer and Craig Bellamy (signed in the summer of 2001) were emerging, but creativity and consistency were lacking. Newcastle finished 11th in the Premier League, showing flashes of promise but struggling for goals and stability. Cup runs were short-lived, with early exits in both the FA Cup and League Cup. Despite mid-table mediocrity, Robson used the season to rebuild the squad for future success.
