Ask yourself though, who'd want to come to Newcastle? Who'd want to shake hands with Mike Ashley and pose with false smiles for the cameras, to inherit a dressing room full of disillusioned players, most of whom are preparing to leave at the end of the season? Who'd want to willingly sign up to be part of a regime under which they have little or no control over transfers and are totally isolated from the press, who are lambasting them anyway because they're feeding on scraps?
I love this club, always have and I always will but until there's a culture change at the very top, don't expect anything to change. If David Moyes knows what's good for him, he'll run a country mile before signing any paperwork with Newcastle.
