Newcastle's Final-Day Premier League Results - How Have They Fared?
15. Newcastle United 4-2 Arsenal (14/05/00) - WON
Newcastle's opening final-day Premier League match of the new millennium saw them return to winning ways as they edged a thriller at St James' Park against Arsenal. Bobby Robson, who had taken over a side in desperate peril following Ruud Gullit's resignation, steadied the ship and led the club to an 11th-place finish. A brace from Gary Speed, as well as goals from Alan Shearer and Andy Griffin, saw the Magpies triumph 4-2 over Arsenal - who found the net through Nwankwo Kanu and Stefan Malz.
