"I would like Bobby to nick it because there is no more decent or honest manager who has done his apprenticeship and deserves everything he has got out of the game. He is a good man and a humble man who is always helping other people," said Pleat.

"Newcastle have a good nucleus of young British players - the likes of Dyer, Jenas, Woodgate, Bramble and Bellamy - and I think that is a good philosophy because that seems to be more lasting than buying foreign players who might be more mercenary."
