Then after only two games of the new season Dalglish resigned according to the club or was sacked according to the man himself.

Newcastle's season was an almost carbon copy of the one before. They finished 13th in the Premiership and lost in the FA Cup final to enter Europe because the winning side had already qualified for the Champions League. Just after the season started, Kenny Dalglish paid for Newcastle's sub-standard league performances with his job. The task was given to Ruud Gullit to turn things round, but he could not improve on the club's previous league finish of 13th. A dismal league position put them below local rivals Middlesbrough as well as other unfancied sides including Derby County and Sheffield Wednesday. A poor start to the —99 season led to Kenny Dalglish being sacked. Gullit made some high-profile mistakes in the transfer market notably, Spanish defender Marcelino and forward Silvio Maric bore the brunt of supporters frustrations.

They finished 13th and reached the FA Cup final , losing to Arsenal. During the summer, David Ginola and Les Ferdinand were sold to Tottenham Hotspur , while in a pre-season friendly match, Alan Shearer sustained a horrific ankle injury which would keep him out for half the season. The highlight of the —98 season was to be the club's run in the UEFA Champions League , seeing them defeat Barcelona 3—2 after a hat-trick from striker Faustino Asprilla. Controversy surrounded the club in March when chairman Freddie Shepherd, and deputy chairman Douglas Hall son of previous chairman Sir John Hall , who had retired during the summer , were filmed in a Spanish brothel making a series of remarks to an undercover tabloid journalist. They ridiculed Shearer, boasted of "ripping off" supporters with the club shirts they sold, and called the women of Newcastle "dogs". Both subsequently resigned, and Sir John Hall returned as acting chairman for the remainder of the season. Newcastle enjoyed a good run in the —98 FA Cup and reached the final for the first time in 24 years. They never looked like winners, and the final whistle blew with a 2—0 scoreline giving the trophy to opponents Arsenal. Dalglish's cautious brand of football proved unpopular with supporters used to Newcastle's previous swashbuckling style; more importantly this cautious style was not producing results. Many players signed by Dalglish were not considered to match the quality of those who had left the club this season. The team's 13th-place finish gave particular cause for concern, as Newcastle had finished runners-up in the last two seasons and had never finished below sixth since returning to the top flight in To add insult to injury, only 35 league goals were scored by the club all season. Despite signing Dietmar Hamann , Nolberto Solano and Gary Speed , several unsuccessful transfer deals along with a poor start to the —99 season led to Dalglish being sacked.
