Newcastle United launch underwear line

A new line of sexy lingerie has been launched for Newcastle United's female supporters, which is sure to have Joey Barton kicking himself for leaving St James' Park. Ladies throughout Tyneside, and their male pals, are sure to be giving a big old thumbs up to the new line, which looks set to bring a new meaning to the 'Angel of the North'. Featuring the club's classic black and white colour scheme, the intimate yet classy collection features suspenders, bras and camisoles. There are also some lace French knickers - perhaps in tribute to the club's three new signings from across the channel this summer, Lille's Yohan Cabaye, Lens' Mehdi Abeid, and Sylvain Marveaux from Rennes. Pulses are normally racing on match day, but Newcastle hope the buzz can continue long after a win when their female supporters kit-up for bed in their favourite team's colours - emblazoned with that famous badge. Hopefully, excitable Toon owner Mike Ashley stays well away from the range though - after he was recently spotted gyrating on a boozy night out. Practising his strip moves in a karaoke club in Mansfield, millionaire Ashley went down to his socks and attempted to dance to the Full Monty tune You Can Leave Your Hat On - not the prettiest sight indeed. Prices for the Premier League lingerie go from the top-of-the-range £27 for black suspenders, £15 for French knickers and £7 for garters. The products are now available to buy in the Newcastle United online shop. Newcastle's entrance to the sexy underwear market makes them one of the first - but not quite number one after Wolves became the early market leaders with a pioneering, but not wholelly high-quality, lingerie offering.
