Premier League
Newcastle United Football Club is a professional association football club based in Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Founded in 1881 as Stanley F.C., the club took on its present guise in 1892 after absorbing the assets of defunct local rivals Newcastle West End, including their home stadium St. James' Park, where United have played ever since. Located in the centre of Newcastle, St. James' Park currently has a capacity of 52,769.
Newcastle have been a member of the Premier League for all but three years of the competition's history, spending 94 seasons in the top flight as of May 2026, and have never dropped below English football's second tier since joining the Football League in 1893. Newcastle have won four League titles, six FA Cups, one League Cup and an FA Charity Shield, as well as the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, the ninth-highest total of trophies won by an English club. The club's most successful period was between 1904 and 1910, when they won an FA Cup and three of their four League titles. More recently, the club were League or FA Cup runners-up on four occasions in the 1990s. Newcastle were relegated in 2009, and again in 2016. The club won promotion at the first time of asking each time, returning to the Premier League, as Championship winners, in 2010 and 2017. In October 2021, a consortium led by the Public Investment Fund, the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia, became majority owners of Newcastle United. In 2025, the club won the 2024–25 EFL Cup, the club's first trophy in nearly 56 years, and their first domestic trophy since 1955.
Newcastle share a long-standing rivalry with nearby Sunderland, with whom the Tyne–Wear derby is contested. The club's traditional kit colours are black-and-white striped shirts, black shorts and black or white socks. Their crest has elements of the city coat of arms, which features two grey hippocamps. Before each home game, the team enters the pitch to \"Going Home\".
