Newcastle United's 2018/19 Throwback Away Kit Is An Absolute Beauty

Newcastle United have revealed their 2018/19 away kit and it's an absolute gem.

The PUMA creation has been launched with #TheFabricOfNewcastle as the tagline and it's a huge nod to the Magpies' past - with legends such as Bobby Robson, Pavel Srníček, Les Ferdinand and David Ginola all featuring in the poster which contains a St. James' Park backdrop.

The kit draws direct inspiration from the Adidas maroon and blue hooped design that was wore with distinction by the squad known as 'the Entertainers' under Kevin Keegan in the 1995/1996 season.

Newcastle Brown Ale was the iconic sponsor then, with Fun88 front and centre in the middle of the shirt in the "contemporary take" on the classic shirt.

It's a wonderful kit that has gone down extremely well with fans, who are absolutely loving it:

The kit officially goes on sale on 3 August and you just demand for it is going to be something else.
