Newcastle United Home Shirt 2005/06

Newcastle United’s 2005/06 season was turbulent but ultimately stabilising. Graeme Souness began the campaign, but poor results and unrest led to his sacking in February. Alan Shearer, in his final season, became the club’s all-time top scorer. Michael Owen arrived from Real Madrid but suffered a serious injury, limiting his impact. Glenn Roeder took charge as caretaker, steadying the team and guiding them up the table. Newcastle finished 7th in the Premier League, securing UEFA Intertoto Cup qualification. Despite early struggles, the season ended positively, with Shearer’s farewell and Roeder’s appointment as permanent manager offering hope for the future.
