	Newcastle Falcons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The name Newcastle Falcons and the current fl-and-white colours were adopted for the 1996/97 season, after local businessman Sir John Hall had taken control and attempted to create a sporting club in Newcastle upon Tyne that would emulate the success of Barcelona.
		Newcastle was the first of the “professional” rugby union clubs in England.
		In August 2006 Rob Andrew left the Falcons to be in overall charge of the England set-up ahead of the 2007 World Cup in a wide-ranging role that encompasses all aspects of the professional representative game in England.
