Who can forget the scenes as St James Park set a spectacular backdrop for Newcastle United’s final home game of last season?

A stunning ‘Wor Flags’ display saw all four sides of the Magpies historical home play their part in an atmosphere that will live long in the memory.

United’s players fed off the buzz around the stadium as a Ben White own goal and a Bruno Guimaraes strike gave Eddie Howe’s men a well-deserved win against an Arsenal side that saw their Champions League hopes evaporate on Tyneside.

The memorable night brought down the curtain on a transformative season on Tyneside as the Gallowgate faithful continued to get behind their side throughout a campaign that will be remembered for the PIF-led takeover and the return of ambition and excitement on Tyneside.

Magpies supporters continued to get behind their side throughout the season and had produced an impressive average home attendance at the end of the campaign.

But how did it compare to those of their Premier League rivals?
