Newcastle City Hall to host An Evening with Andy Cole and Lee Clark

Newcastle United 'Entertainers' era' legends Andy Cole and Lee Clark will appear at Newcastle City Hall for a live talk.

City Hall will host 'An Evening with Geordie Legends Andy Cole and Lee Clark' on Friday, November 1.

Nottingham-born Cole and Wallsend lad Clark were stars of the mid-1990s Newcastle sides which rocketed from the then first Division to Premier League after Kevin Keegan returned to St James' Park as manager.

Cole still holds the record for the most goals in a season for United, bagging 41 in the 1993/94 campaign. He left the club in 1995 for Manchester United, a season before the Magpies nearly won English football's top prize. They lost out, to Cole's new side, in a dramatic season.

Cole went onto to win the Treble for Man United and enjoyed a glittering career. Recently, the striker has battled a rare illness which left him requiring a lifesaving kidney transplant .

Midfielder Clark had two spells at his hometown club, between 1990 and 1997 and then from 2005 to 2006.

Tickets are on sale now , priced from £28.90.
