Newcastle United: Climbing To The Top
Despite having won several coveted awards, The Magpies have not secured a major title in decades. Their last FA Cup victory was in 1955; their last top flight League title victory was earned in 1927. By the 1964-65 season, Newcastle was competing in the Second Division, hoping to gain promotion to the top flight. However, as the years passed, the club continued to languish. When the 1980s arrived, they were barely holding their own in the Second Tier.
By 1983, manager Arthur Cox and star player Kevin Keegan led the Magpies into the First Division. They maintained their position in the top flight until being relegated in 1989. Keegan assumed the role of manager, yet Newcastle continued to struggle in the Second Division. Fortunately, when the 1992-93 season arrived, something had changed within the team. They played ferociously, battling their way back into the Premiere League.
The past 15 years have been tumultuous for the Magpies. They finished in third place at the end of the 1993-94 season, and went on to earn back-to-back runners-up status for the 1995-96 and 1996-97 seasons. Though they have continued to compete bravely in the top flight, the manager's role remains a question mark. Popular manager Joe Kinnear was rushed to the hospital for emergency heart surgery in early 2009. His long-term future with the club is still unknown.
