Letters to my sons.

Yesterday was a good day in the transfer market for the Toon. Michael Owen signed on a four year contract, Jenas moved to Spurs for £7 and Nobby returned from Aston Villa. As part of the Nobby deal James Milner went the other way on loan.

A few weeks ago I was very down beat about Newcastles chances this season and the first few games of the season proved my worst fears correct. But with these signings I am now hopefull of a strong finish. Some defenders in January would be nice as well.

I still have my doubts about Greame Souness but a trophy would put that to bed.

Howay the lads!
