Quinn leaves Newcastle

Wayne Quinn has no future at Newcastle - says the man himself. The 26-year-old joined the Magpies for £800,000 from Sheffield United in January 2001, but has made just 24 first-team appearances for the club, the last of them as a substitute in the 1-0 Champions League qualifier win over NK Zeljeznicar in August last year.

Speaking to the Newcastle Journal, he said:
"I'm not stupid, I know that I've not got a future here. I've been frozen out and that is obviously disappointing, but it's one of those things.

"I read the manager's comments in the paper and although he hasn't really said anything to me about it, I already realised the situation.

"I want to be playing regularly again and that is what I'm trying to achieve. Hopefully something will be sorted out in the summer.

"I'd like to stay in the Premiership because I think I'm good enough to do that, but we'll have to see what clubs come in for me."
