LEE CLARK: Newcastle's 1995-97 home shirt is one of the most iconic in the club's history, it's association with Kevin Keegan's Entertainers makes it unanimous and was worn all around town

For all Newcastle fans, this is one of the most iconic shirts in the club’s history.

It was what we wore when we came within a whisker of winning the Premier League in 1996, its association with Kevin Keegan’s Entertainers is recognised the world over.

I remember being there for the kit launch with a teenage Ant and Dec at St James’ Park, and don’t forget we also had the maroon and navy away shirt that season, too.

I don’t think you’ll get two better kits in one season. We beat Coventry 3-0 on the opening day of the season and Les Ferdinand and David Ginola made debuts — that black and white shirt was everywhere in town.
