Official Adidas Newcastle United away football shirt from the 2008/09 season.

Condition of this original football jersey is 9/10 – Superb. The size motif has faded inside the collar (see photos).

This season saw the club relegated from the Premier League to the Championship, the first time the club had been relegated since1989.

Things had looked reasonable for Newcastle at the start of the new season, but a major falling out between Kevin Keegan and the board saw Keegan resign as manager. This led to an awful run of form under caretaker manager Chris Houghton and the surprise appointment of Joe Kinnear was made to try to help the team out. A health scare saw Kinnear have to leave his office as manager in February.

Under Houghton and Colin Calderwood, the club went on another horrible run of form as they were sucked deeper into the relegation battle. Ex-player Alan Shearer was appointed as a temporary manager for the last eight matches of the season but he was only able to win one of these games and Newcastle were relegated.
