| The greatest goalscorer in the history of the Premiership realised
his boyhood dream when he signed for Newcastle United in the summer
of 1996 for a world record £15 million transfer fee. Over
15,000 ecstatic fans massed outside St. James's Park as ''Shearer's
Coming Home'' was proudly sung across Tyneside. Big Al promised
goals in his beloved black and white stripes- and he certainly delivered...from
opening his account on his home debut against Wimbledon to signing
off with a perfect penalty against arch-rivals Sunderland in a 4-1
win at the Stadium of Light ten years later.
Shearer the Legend charts the glorious Gallowgate career of the
Geordie hero and features every one of his record-breaking tally
of 206 goals for the Magpies...
Shearer the Legend reflects on a decade of goals, goals, goals
and Shearer himself talks exclusively about his football life and
looks back on Ten great years.
