NEWCASTLE fans were left baffled as TV cameras spotted a VIP guest watching their clash with Manchester City.

Eddie Howe‘s side were in action against the reigning champions in Saturday’s Premier League early kick-off.

During the second half of the match, a high-profile guest was shown on screen for TV viewers watching at home.

The figure, draped in a Newcastle scarf, appeared to be watching intently as the Toon battled City.

Beneath his black and white bar scarf, he wore a black LIV Golf jacket.

The controversial former golfer is said to be worth more than £300million following successful investments.

While the 69-year-old also briefly dated Sue Barker during his pomp.

Nowadays, Aussie Greg Norman can be found backing the Toon.

Newcastle, Saudi-backed like LIV Golf, went on to draw 1-1 with City.

The former golfer’s appearance was the subject of much debate on social media.

One fan wrote: “Wtf Greg Norman at St James Park for the Newcastle v City match.”

While a second commented: “Pretty random.”

A third joked: “Greg Norman has always been a Newcastle fan I believe.”

While another added: “Greg Norman supporting Newcastle is the least surprising thing I’ve ever seen.”

City had taken the lead in the North East via Josko Gvardiol‘s 35th minute strike.

But the Magpies levelled in the second half, courtesy of Anthony Gordon’s penalty just shy of the hour mark.
