Newcastle Falcons

Newcastle Falcons were previously known as Newcastle Gosforth and under that guise they had mainly occupied the second tier of English rugby, but professionalism changed all that. The Falcons, bankrolled by local businessman and owner of Newcastle United Sir John Hall, became arguably the first professional rugby union club in the world. This team created history to become Premiership champions in 1997/98.
