The Legacy

Michael Owen struggled for fitness while Newcastle United suffered relegation from the Premier League in 2008-2009. Obafemi Martins scored several goals but could not prevent the drop. Kevin Nolan arrived from Bolton in January to bolster the midfield, and Fabricio Coloccini started at the back as the side failed to find stability under multiple managers. Adidas produced this home shirt for a difficult year that ended with a final-day defeat at Aston Villa, confirming the club’s return to the Championship after sixteen years in the top flight.

Key Moment

Alan Shearer's brief stint as interim manager during the final eight games of the 2008-2009 season in a desperate bid to avoid relegation.
