Newcastle United winning a trophy is more important than Champions League qualification, says the club's record goalscorer Alan Shearer.
Newcastle's last trophy was the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup (which eventually became the Europa League) in 1969.
"I love the football club and what Eddie is doing, and I just want them to win it for the fans," said Shearer.
