Newcastle Falcons have announced the death of well-known coach Steve Black.
Black served on the Falcons' coaching team twice - in a variety of positions - as well as taking roles with the likes of Wales, the British and Irish Lions, Newcastle United and Sunderland.
During his time with Newcastle's football team he worked under Kevin Keegan during the club's successful spell in the 1990s and warm tributes have been paid by many who worked with and under him.
