Alan Shearer and Newcastle United
1996 - 2006
 First Appearance:
Everton 2-0 Newcastle Utd,
August 17th 1996 (pictured)
Shearer's first competitive game for Newcastle came at
Goodison Park against Everton on the opening day of the 1996-97
season. The Magpies were defeated 2-0, the goals coming
from David Unsworth and Gary Speed.
Four days later Shearer made his St James'
Park home debut against Wimbledon. It was to be a much more
joyous occasion with Newcastle winning 2-0, Alan himself getting on
the scoresheet with a free kick at the Leazes End.
Final Appearance:
Sunderland 1-4 Newcastle, April
14th 2006
Alan famously played his last game in black and white in
the memorable Tyne-Wear derby of April 2006. It was 1-0 to
Sunderland at the break but a second half blitz gave the away side
a comfortable win. Michael Chopra equalised within seconds
of coming on. Then Shearer tucked away a penalty only a minute
later to give his side the lead. Charles N'Zogbia and
Albert Luque finished the Black Cats off. Alan was forced to
come off through injury after a clash with Julio Arca. It
would be his final competitive appearance on a football pitch.
