Inside Number Nines

It's the return of your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic, hosted by Taylor Payne and featuring club correspondent Chris Waugh. On the first day of term we catch up with what's been happening with the club's twin legal disputes. Plus, there's a sneaky peek behind the scenes of The Athletic's big interview this week. In the hotseat was with Callum Wilson, Newcastle's star striker and the latest in an illustrious line of hitmen to wear the famous number nine shirt. Interviewing Wilson was perhaps the very best of those, Alan Shearer, and it's 25 years since he was recruited from Blackburn Rovers for a world record fee. Sir John Hall was the Magpies' chairman at the time and he joins us to remember that remarkable moment. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
