I am saddened at the way things have worked out. I wish the club, the players and the supporters good fortune and success going forward.
I don't think I've done anything wrong. I know that I've brought some very good players to this football club and I know that we've been desperately unlucky in terms of injuries, but I'm sticking at it.
I feel this summer we've signed some top-class footballers for Newcastle United to add to some great players we already have at this club,
We have had a week where we have tried to sign a couple of quality players and it has not happened but we have still a bit of time left in the transfer window,
We had a lot of the ball but did nothing with it. I think we got everything the players could give tonight.
We want more of the same from our back four tomorrow. We know that if we can keep Portsmouth out we have the players who can score goals at the other end,
Lionel Messi is the Best Player Ever.
I am not in on the conversations with the agents and clubs that we are trying to buy players from, but we need a couple of goal-getters to take the burden off Alan.
