List of Newcastle United F.C. players


Below is a list of notable footballers who have played for Newcastle United. Generally, this means players that have played 100 or more first-class matches for the club. However, some players who have played fewer matches are also included; this includes the club's founder members, players from the club's pre-Football League days, when they played fewer matches in a season than the present day, and some players who fell just short of the 100 total but made significant contributions to the club's history.
