News: Club Overhaul Medical StaffIn light of our quite frankly appalling injury and fitness record, it would appear that Newcastle have completely overhauled their medical staff in a bid to put an end to these ever increasing injury woes. Indeed, Souness today admitted he has appointed a new club doctor going by the name of Guy Stevenson, an orthopaedic specialist. This on the back of a review of United's training pitches and warm-up/down routine. Good news. It at least shows forward thinking on Newcastle's behalf and a clear determination to put an end to the injuries and fitness worries that have blighted many a campaign now. News: Same Old Same Old
"Nobody can put a time on it (his injury). "I don't know where talk of Christmas has come from. Christmas has never been mentioned by anyone at the club. "All we are concerned with is getting Kieron fit again as soon as we can, and getting him back on the pitch playing for Newcastle United. "He's got a problem with both of his hamstrings and he's now feeling another part of his hamstring, higher up on his backside. "He'll be very frustrated by the situation; he loves playing football - that's why he does it so well - and it will be hurting him at this time. "He sees we've bought good players and he wants to be on the pitch with them. "I want to get him on the pitch because he's one of our door openers." News: Celebs Vs PlebsSky One's The Match! last night revealed that the celebrities of Newcastle United, i.e. the first-team squad, will play a training match against the plebs, otherwise known as failed wannabes. Lets hope none of the twats injure any of wor lot! News: Get Him Signed!
"Nothing has been mentioned. Maybe I would have expected something to be discussed by now. "In an ideal world, I suppose they would start talking in the near future, but the phone hasn't rung. "I have this season and one more, so I don't really know what the future holds. "I would like to be offered a new contract and win a trophy."
