The Whites made it a bleak mid-winter for Newcastle United on Tyneside back in December 1998. They romped to a 3-0 win at St James's Park on Boxing Day thanks to goals from Lee Bowyer, Harry Kewell and Jimmy Hasselbaink. "Do you know what? Leeds United could be outsiders for the Championship," proclaimed the TV commentator. His predication was slightly off centre as the Whites finished in fourth place on 67 points behind Chelsea, Arsenal and title winners Manchester United. Enjoy these photos from a game to remember.
