Olivier Bernard became a cult hero on Tyneside during his five-year stint at Newcastle - and the former full-back is now running his own pub just up the road from St. James' Park.
Bernard was part of the Magpies side that enjoyed a number of years in the upper echelons of the Premier League under the guidance of the late, great Sir Bobby Robson. The 43-year-old even turned out for Newcastle in the Champions League and formed a deadly partnership on the left wing with Laurent Robert.
But Bernard has taken up a different role since hanging up his boots and is now the landlord of the Masons Arms. Whilst he would have previously been recognised racing up and down the wing of a Premier League pitch, he can now be found pulling pints at the pub in Blyth he took over in 2020.
