I hope he didn't score in that second game, that would have been painful!
Does he fancy a game for us? We could do with a penalty taker.

He must be 48 or so now and he retired from Newport with a dodgy hip so yeah I'm sure he'd love to play for you

Well I think he's a class defender (and he's practically a Geordie) anyway, but yeah to be honest it was also a factor, as he'd pledged last season to stay regardless of whether or not Newcastle survived, which I really respect him for.
Thought at one moment about getting Martins, glad I didn't now obviously.

Fair play to him if he helps get you back up...that's the sort of lad you need.
