Yep, they are on the list.

quote:

Newcastle United FC (England, 1995/96)
Sir Alex Ferguson's suggestion that other Premier League teams tried harder against his Manchester United FC side than they did against leaders Newcastle hastened the decline of Kevin Keegan's Magpies. "I will love it if we beat them – love it," the manager railed in a notorious post-match interview. However, Newcastle's hopes of a first English championship since 1927 were already fading; 12 points clear of United in January, they ended up finishing four points adrift of their rivals in second.


Other notables, Inter in 01/02 and Madrid in 03/04.

I wasn't a fan then obviously but it still sucks as our most recent English title is like 1927 and most recent major trophy was still 1955.

Can't recall all the details, but I remember this being a bad one, particularly since they hadn't won the Scudetto in years.
