Contents. Background In the, Newcastle United and Manchester United contested for the title in a season described by Total Football magazine as 'an absolute classic' and which was in 2012 one of six nominees for for best Premier League season ever.

On 1 January 1996, Manchester United were beaten 4–1 by and when Newcastle beat 2-1 at home on 20 January 1996 they established what most presumed to be an insurmountable 12-point lead over their title rivals. However, the Manchester club began embarked upon what sports writer Ian Cusack described as 'a seemingly endless streak of 1-0 wins', including a critical game at St James' Park on 4 March which saw defy the hosts with several excellent saves before scored a decisive break-away goal. Indeed, after a 2–1 win at Middlesbrough largely inspired by debutant, Newcastle lost five of their next eight, including last-gasp defeats at, in a later of the first decade of the Premier League, and at thanks to a pair of goals from substitute who scored on 86 and 90 minutes. These factors meant that Keegan's side were caught by 's side who ultimately went on to win the title by four points and then beat Liverpool in the FA Cup final to complete a domestic double. Newcastle's collapse was later described by Graham Lister of Goal.com as having 'entered football folklore as the Premier League's ultimate moment'. Although midfielder later claimed that the failure to capture the title was due to falling player confidence and Ian Cusack believed that Cantona was the difference, stating 'Newcastle United had, player for player, the best team in the Premiership, but didn’t have the best player.'

, the general consensus was that Newcastle had lost because of Keegan's attacking philosophy. Summed up the prevailing consensus when he said: 'I really think they should have won the league in the 1995–96 season.Kevin could have done it if he'd altered the system very, very slightly. But he didn't want to betray his principles.I think Kevin wanted it free-flowing in all departments and that doesn't necessarily happen.'

Position Player (on trial from ) (on trial from ) No. Position Player (on trial from ) Transfers. Alan Shearer was the club's only signing in the 1996–97 pre-season. He arrived for a world record £15m fee. Keegan responded to the previous season's disappointment by breaking the transfer fee to sign from Blackburn Rovers for £15 million.

Shearer, whose five goals made him the top scorer in, had supported Newcastle since childhood – he had been a ball-boy at St James' Park on the day that Keegan had left in a helicopter after his final Newcastle appearance as a player. He rejected offers to manage Blackburn and to play for Manchester United to join the club who had rejected him after he had played in goal for two days during a trial as a teenager.

The signing was confirmed by the manager on 30 July 1996 and was officially unveiled a week later in front of hundreds of journalists and around 15,000 fans who queued in the stadium car parks hoping to catch a glimpse of the player. Keegan told the assembled fans 'It's the transfer fee your money. It's the money you've spent on your replica shirts, the money you've spent on your season tickets and your bonds, the programmes and the Black and White magazines' whilst chairman Sir John Hall stated that 'now we must get some silverware in the cupboard. In some ways it's a ridiculous price to pay but we've proved we mean business'. Both refuted claims that Les Ferdinand would be sold to part fund the signing, with Keegan stating 'despite what some people think, I think they will make a terrific strike force. I think they can both take each other places where they dream about going' and that 'they will form the most potent strike-force in world football'. It was also confirmed that Ferdinand would give Shearer the number nine shirt for the new season.

On 5 January 1997, this claim was reiterated in an article by journalist Brian McNally in the Sunday Mirror which further alleged that he had offered to leave again after the 1996 defeat at Blackburn Rovers, telling the board that 'he had taken the club as far as he could', but was dissuaded from leaving. McNally wrote: 'the ghost of last season's spectacular championship fade-out still haunts Keegan. The simple truth is that Keegan hasn't mentally recovered from the choking disappointment of blowing the title seven months ago. As Manchester United gnawed away at Newcastle's seemingly unassailable advantage, Keegan became increasingly morose, withdrawn and bewildered'. McNally was called to a three-hour meeting with club directors and told that there was no pressure on Keegan from the board and that his position was completely secure.

Keegan reacted furiously when questioned about the story at the end of a press conference after the FA Cup tie with, storming out after stating 'I'm here to talk about the game. You know the guy who wrote that. End of story.'

However, on 8 January 1997, Kevin Keegan resigned as manager of Newcastle United. He released a statement which read: 'It was my decision alone. I feel I have taken the club as far as I can and that it would be in the best interest of all concerned if I resign now.' Despite his previous offers to leave, the resignation drew a shocked reaction from his assistant, and drew comment from the Mayor of Newcastle and the leader of the opposition,. Several media sources reported outpourings of grief among Newcastle fans though eye-witness Ian Cusack at later claimed: 'I saw the stage-managed outpourings of false emotion at first hand. Main article: The is a match played between the reigning Premier League Champions and the FA Cup winners one week prior to the commencement of the Premier League campaign.

However, Manchester United completed a the previous season and on 14 May 1996 the FA voted to invite Newcastle, rather than Liverpool, to play against the Champions at. The invitation was accepted on 22 May, with Newcastle defender telling the press: 'It's brilliant news.It's not the way we wanted to qualify for the Charity Shield – we wanted to get there by winning the League. But it will be a great day for our fans and gives us a real lift before the start of the season.' Although the Community Shield has been described by some media sources as a 'glorified friendly', the 1996 renewal sparked considerable local interest as it was to be the club's first appearance at Wembley since losing the to.

The signing of Alan Shearer less than one week earlier had sparked what several media outlets were referring to as 'Shearer-Mania' on and demand for tickets to see the £15 million signing on his competitive debut was huge, with the original Newcastle allocation of 40,000 quickly sold out and fans queuing for three days to purchase some of the additional 5,000 tickets which were released for sale on 5 August. The game had not merely attracted local interest; Ian Ridley of the Independent summed up the prevailing mood: 'It the Charity Shield is a forgotten match once the real business of the season begins, but this year's may linger a little longer in the memory for 15 million and one reasons. The prospect of Alan Shearer's appearance for Newcastle United against the club who also tried to sign him has seen enthusiasm reach a rare pitch.

The other reason is that the opponents are Manchester United, with whom Newcastle have become embroiled in one of the most intense rivalries of the modern game.' After such an intense build-up, Newcastle fans were ultimately left disappointed as their side were soundly beaten in, according to Journalist David Lacey, 'the most passionate Charity Shield in living memory by the second biggest margin since the occasion moved to Wembley 22 years earlier'. First half goals from man-of-the-match Cantona and saw the champions lead 2–0 at the break and, despite Newcastle pressure for half an hour of the second half, the lead was held comfortably before two more goals in the last five minutes, by and, gave the Manchester side a comprehensive 4–0 victory after a Newcastle performance described by writer Harry Harris as 'not just lamentable, but deplorable' and by manager Keegan as 'abysmal'. So far as the ramifications for the season's title race was concerned, the Daily Mirror commented that 'Kevin Keegan has a big task in turning his team of stars into a unit which can challenge for the title. Keegan's team may well overwhelm some of the Premiership minnows but are clearly going to have to improve to compete with the likes of United.

However these are early days and once Shearer settles in, Newcastle will be formidable opponents.' Main article: August – October Newcastle started their Premier League campaign on 17 August 1996 with a trip to to play.

And were dropped from the starting line-up but excellent performances by in goal and future Newcastle striker helped Everton win 2–0. Keegan afterwards claimed that he was worried about the lack of invention from his side and their inability to win games when not playing well. Four days later United beat by the same scoreline at home to claim their first win of the season. Batty opened the scoring with a 35-yard lob over goalkeeper similar to that executed by for Manchester United a few days earlier before Shearer scored his first competitive goal for the club with a free-kick on 88 minutes. On 24 August travelled to St James' Park and recovered from an early Shearer penalty to win 2-1 thanks to goals from. The win put Wednesday top of the league at the end of August with three wins from three games and Newcastle in tenth with fans criticising the team and manager Keegan, who told reporters 'I think anyone would have the right to suggest there is a crisis.

That was our worst home performance in my reign. We haven't started yet and we will have to start soon if we have ambitions to win anything, certainly the League.' United's first game of September saw them make the short trip to to face unbeaten local rivals at in the 117th – the last derby to be played at the stadium before Sunderland's relocation to the. Beardsley was restored to the side and he cancelled out 's opening goal with a header on 52 minutes before headed home a Ginola cross ten minutes later to win the game 2–1. The winning goals were greeted with near silence as a result of the at the match. A Ferdinand on 7 September gave Newcastle another 2–1 away win, this time at against before a Shearer penalty and another Ferdinand goal saw United come from a goal down once more to record a third consecutive 2–1 victory, this time at home to Shearer's former club Blackburn Rovers, to move up to third in the table. A trip to on 21 September yielded a further three points after was sent off and Shearer scored his first goal from open play on the hour after excellent approach play by Beardsley.

Beardsley's performance was again praised afterwards, with journalist Colin Royce noting: ' If the pounds 22 million partnership of Shearer and Asprilla is to develop into the 'Dream Team' Keegan thinks it might, then they are going to need plenty of assistance from veteran Beardsley.It's all held together by Beardo in midfield. The little fella is propelling Newcastle back towards the top, which is where they belong.' Keegan's side then faced in what writer Colin Diball described afterwards as 'the most amazing match of the season so far'.

Two first half goals from Ferdinand, taking his total to eight in six games, and another from Shearer had cancelled out an early goal by to give the hosts a 3-1 half-time lead. However, Yorke completed his hat-trick in the second half and a goal on 67 minutes was required to secure a 4–3 home win and move the team up to second place in the table. Afterwards, Keegan told reporters afterwards 'Everyone says we're no good at defending. My team have proved that tonight' but the partnership between Ferdinand and Shearer appeared to be flourishing, with noting 'Ferdinand looks the perfect foil for Shearer, making nonsense of early-season suggestions by critics that they were an unsuitable pairing for club or country.'

Beardsley's good form since returning to the side continued and he was man-of-the-match in a 1-0 win at Derby County on 12 October. It was Newcastle's sixth successive victory and their fourth away from home in a row. Afterwards, Keegan said 'We look more resilient. No one's calling us entertainers anymore - we're more like grinders now. We're sticking the odd chance away and defending well.

Which you (the press) won't want to write because you like saying how badly we defend.' Newcastle's next fixture was at home to champions Manchester United on 20 October 1996. Despite their impressive league form, the pre-match focus remained on apparent defensive shortcomings, with writer Neil Harman claiming 'The achilles heel of Newcastle's extravagant attempt to wrest the Premiership from Manchester United is a defence which, at moments of pressure, tends to react like a bunch of frisky colts. Defend like that against Manchester United tomorrow and they are surely done for. Newcastle continue to resemble a defensive sow's ear, with no silk purse in sight.' Keegan ignored the criticism and sent his side out with his usual instructions to entertain and the result for his team was 'their crowning achievement, a sign that their swashbuckling football that had lost them the title in tragi-comic circumstances the previous seasons could endure.' First-half goals from Peacock and Ginola saw the home side lead 2–0 at the interval before further goals from Ferdinand, Shearer and a lob over Schmeichel by Albert – described by writer Steve Millar as 'magnificent; fit to win any game' – gave Newcastle a comprehensive 5–0 win.

Keegan claimed the result was revenge for the Charity Shield defeat, claiming '`This is my most satisfying day as a manager. I tell our players our fans expect miracles and we try to provide them. Today we were near to giving them one. After what happened last season and the Charity Shield, today's win was for our fans. My players went out today with my reminder of the Charity Shield ringing in their ears. We were like a team on a mission' whilst Shearer said 'Not many teams have embarrassed Manchester United over the years, but that's what we did today.' The win left Newcastle top of the league, three points clear of Liverpool and Arsenal and five ahead of Manchester United.

Supporters were brought back down to earth with news that Shearer would be sidelined for at least six Premiership games as a result of a groin injury which required surgery. In their first game without the injured striker, United were beaten 2–0 at against newly promoted after goal from and and a brilliant performance by home goalkeeper. November – December Newcastle's first game of November was the with at St James' Park.

Two goals from Beardsley, in his 700th career league and cup match, helped his side to a 3–1 win. Beardsley was on the scoresheet again – the 200th goal of his league career – on 16 November to rescue a point with an 83rd-minute equaliser in a 1–1 draw at home to in a match where the hosts hit the woodwork four times and saw Les Ferdinand leave the pitch with a depressed fracture of the cheekbone which ruled him out for six weeks. Shearer made an early return from injury in time to score an equaliser at after had given the lead on 24 minutes. Newcastle held on for a point despite being sent off for the first time in his career for an elbow on. On 30 November Newcastle relinquished their place at the top of the table to after the latter won 2–1 at St James' Park, despite having played 68 minutes with ten men after was sent off for a professional foul from Shearer.

Goals from and were enough to give the visitors three points and Keegan afterwards told reporters: 'We were poor throughout. It wouldn't take too many performances like that before I change personnel. It was an extremely disappointing performance.

At times it looked as if we had 10 men and they had 11. I've got no qualms about the result - justice was done.'

United's next league match was on 9 December at the against. Despite being bottom of the table, Forest held the visitors to a 0–0 draw – Newcastle's first goalless draw in 74 matches – in the first game in which Shearer and Ferdinand had played together since the 5–0 win against Manchester United.

The result left Keegan's side five points behind leaders Arsenal albeit with a game in hand. The result confirmed Newcastle's loss of form; they had taken six points from their last six matches. The poor run continued on 17 December when they lost 2–1 at. The hosts established as two-goal lead inside the first half an hour thanks to a goal and an assist from, who was transferred to Coventry from Newcastle a month earlier due to Keegan's decision to withdraw the reserve side out of the reserve league. As the season moved into the festive period of fixtures, Newcastle welcomed league leaders to St James'.

Such was the home side's poor form, they entered this match as underdogs – the first time they had done so at home under Keegan. Shearer gave United the lead after a Ferdinand header was saved by on 28 minutes, only for Fowler to equalise seconds before the half-time whistle.

Despite several chances, neither side scored in the second half and both teams had to settle for a 1-1 draw which left Liverpool three points clear of Arsenal in second at Christmas and Newcastle level with Manchester United on 31 points but seven adrift of Liverpool in sixth place. Newcastle's run of games without a win continued on Boxing Day when they were beaten 1–0 by Blackburn Rovers at where Shearer was subjected to abuse from home fans on his return to his former club.

The defeat prompted the manager to say: 'we didn't deserve to win but we still had two or three very good chances. We are not playing well - we can't kid anyone about that'. The defeat prompted journalist Alan Nixon to comment that Keegan's side 'appear to be fading from the Championship race', however, United re-found their best form just two days later at home when winning their first league game in almost two months by beating. Two goals each from Shearer, Ferdinand and Lee saw United overwhelm their opponents, though The Independent noted that: 'the fulcrum of much of Newcastle's sweeping play was the brilliant Peter Beardsley, restored to the central attacking support role in which he schemes – even three weeks short of his 36th birthday – like a classic.' Assistant manager told reporters afterwards: 'that's what I would call a classic Newcastle United performance. We have come in for a lot of criticism and this was the perfect answer.

It was a magnificent performance and the score could easily have reached double figures. We hadn't had a good Christmas but those seven goals have changed all that. We never believed we had blown the title. We're certainly not out of the race. People will write us off at their peril.'

The result meant that Newcastle finished 1996 by moving back to within five points of leaders Liverpool, with Manchester United in second place. January – March Newcastle began the new year by confirming their return to form with a 3–0 home win over. Two goals from Shearer and a late Ferdindand goal were enough to give the home side three points and close the gap on Liverpool, who lost 1–0 at Chelsea, in what was Keegan's last match in charge. Terry McDermott was placed in temporary charge for the game at. Two goals in 21 minutes from Shearer and Clark gave United the lead but replies from Yorke and saw the game finish 2–2. McDermott later dedicated the performance and result to Keegan and claimed to be proud of the players reaction to Keegan's departure. Dalglish took charge for the first time when his new side travelled to to face.

Newcastle, who had not won at Southampton in 25 years, once again established a two-goal lead, through Ferdinand and Clark. However, a mistake by Hislop on 88 minutes gifted a goal to and one minute later scored a goal from thirty yards described by writer Joe Melling as an 'exquisite demonstration of glorious individual skill' to rescue a point for the home side. The month ended with a home game against Everton on 29 January. United performed poorly in the first half and were fortunate to trail at half-time only by a single goal scored by future Newcastle player after three minutes and the team were booed off the pitch at the break. However, the introduction of Asprilla galvanised the home side and goals from Ferdinand, Lee, Shearer and in the last sixteen minutes gave the hosts a flattering 4–1 victory. February started with a home game against Leicester City. Robbie Elliot put the home side ahead but profligacy in front of goal was punished when, and scored in the second half to give the away side a 3-1 lead.

However, Shearer then led what one report called 'an unbelievable revival' – firstly firing home a powerful free-kick on 77 minutes to reduce the arrears to 3–2, shooting home again on 85 minutes to equalise before finishing a flowing passing move in injury time to complete a 13-minute hat-trick and give the hosts three points and keep them five behind the league leaders, albeit having played a game more. On 22 February, United travelled to the for the Tees–Tyne derby and prevailed 1–0 thanks to a ninth minute Ferdinand goal which kept alive the visitors' faint title hopes.

On 1 March Southampton visited St James' Park and inflicted Kenny Dalglish's first league defeat as Newcastle manager thanks to Matt Le Tissier's seventh goal in nine games against a home side playing without the injured Shearer and who saw Ferdinand also succumb to an injury at half-time. The defeat dealt a severe blow to lingering title hopes but Dalglish refused to contemplate that the title challenge was over, telling reporters afterwards: 'no one should start thinking that this is the end of the title race. We're a few points worse off after losing - but nothing has been decided yet.' United the travelled to Anfield, just under one year since regularly cited as the best Premier League game ever played. The odds on a repeat of that scoreline were 100-1 but remarkably the teams played out another 4–3 game, though the score somewhat flattered Newcastle; indeed, The Independent reported that 'they Liverpool routed Newcastle.

Liverpool were creating chances at will. It was too easy. The match was won. Newcastle had been abject. The scoreline was identical to last year's thriller, the circumstances somewhat different.' Liverpool raced into a 3–0 half-time lead and were in complete control even after scored what looked like a consolation goal on 71 minutes. However, goals from Asprilla and in the last five minutes seemed to have rescued a point for the visitors until scored a winning goal two minutes into stoppage time.

The result left United nine points behind Manchester United and eight behind Liverpool at the top of the table. Newcastle responded by beating Coventry City 4–0 at St James' Park. Despite the absence of Shearer and Ferdinand through injury, goals from Watson, Lee, Beardsley and Elliott saw the home side win comfortably in a match notable for an excellent performance from Asprilla and a performance from referee described by writer John Edwards as 'the most wretched performance I've ever seen from a top-flight official'. March concluded with a trip to on 23 March 1997 to face Wimbledon. Another excellent Asprilla performance, this time capped with a second-half goal, was enough to secure a 1–1 draw though claims from Dalglish that the title was still a realistic proposition were mocked by Dons manager; indeed, the gap to Manchester United was by this time 11 points and one bookmaker had priced Newcastle at 33-1 to claim the title.
