Newcastle United are a beacon of the North East, a famous Premier League club renowned the world over. Thousands of supporters flock to St James’ Park to roar on the Magpies every fortnight.
While most, ourselves included, prefer to mingle with the masses, some have the fortunate honour of sitting in with the rich and famous. Tyneside is home to many stars and celebrities alike but everyone is bound by a common love: the football club.
Those in the public eye can regularly be seen in executive boxes acting just as passionately as the Gallowgate End. But who tops the rich list? NewcastleWorld has profiled the top 10 based on reported net worth.
