How many trophies have Newcastle United won in their history?

Magpies are ninth on the list of English football's most successful clubs

A new era is dawning at Newcastle United under Eddie Howe. Fans are feeling an adrenaline rush after years of disappointment that they are about to achieve something. The Saudi takeover has resulted in the club skyrocketing from a bottom-feeder to one that is competing for a European spot.

Many new-age fans are only familiar with the struggling side of Magpies and have never heard of the club's golden era. Newcastle is one of the oldest clubs in English football and has achieved almost every triumph in its history. However, their recent struggling history has overshadowed its glorious past in recent years.

The Newcastle United team has also been the destination of many famous names, including Alan Shearer, the leading goalscorer in Premier League history. The club has also won the ninth-highest total of trophies in English football, which may suffice to describe their trophy cabinet.
