All 21 Geordies Who Have Played For Newcastle In The Premier League

Since the Premier League started back in 1992, Newcastle United have featured in all bar two of the competition's seasons - the inaugural 1992-93 campaign, as well as 2009-10 following the Magpies' relegation to the Championship. Premier League ever-presents they may not be, but Newcastle are certainly modern top-flight regulars to say the least. During the Premier League era, a whole host of magnificent players from both home and abroad have represented the Magpies - including the likes of David Ginola, Nolberto Solano and, of course, Alan Shearer. Interestingly, former Newcastle owner Sir John Hall had a vision for the Magpies that, in the modern era, seems simply a pipe dream. Hall's desire to one day field a full XI of Geordies seemed ludicrous during the 1990s - and it appears practically implausible in 2015. But, despite that, down the years there have been a number of Geordies to play for Newcastle United in the Premier League. A total of 21 players born and bred in the area have represented the club in the Premier League, although there have been a greater number of Geordies who have featured for the Magpies in other competitions during that time. So who are these Geordies? Well, here are the 21 Geordies to have played for Newcastle United in the Premier League.
