STUNNER! Newcastle dump photos of Sir Bobby's 2002 squad

Newcastle United risk more criticism after it emerged pictures of Sir Bobby Robson, Alan Shearer and Gary Speed have been dumped into a skip outside St James' Park.

The Telegraph says the pictures have been removed from corporate boxes inside the stadium and replaced with images of the current playing squad and staff.

Those pictures dumped came from 2002 Champions League qualifiers under Robson.

The team, which was captain by Shearer and contained hugely popular former players like Nolberto Solano, Warren Barton, Kieron Dyer, Craig Bellamy and Rob Lee, finished fourth that season and third the following year.
