The club are reporting that the operation was successful. However, the big takeaway is that it is not likely to delay the 30-year-old’s return by much.
The update states that Ritchie is expected to return to full training soon. It also says that he is likely to be back in action this month.
This is some excellent news on Matt Ritchie who remains our only player currently not involved in full training.
The club also released some images of today’s training. There is a picture of Matt on an exercise bike so the procedure must have been a very minor one indeed.
? After Sunday's superb win over @ManUtd, Steve Bruce's side are without a game this weekend due to the international break – but the hard work has continued at Newcastle United's Benton base.

Comment #42I thought that the GACP proposal was subject to a ten day deadline for Ashley to reply to.
That was over ten days ago.
I’ve looked everywhere for Ashley’s reply but to no avail.
Anyone know where he’s left it ?

Comment #63A 13 year old Jail for Ashley walks into a bar and approaches the counter.
The bartender immediately notices he’s underage .
“Sir, you look extremely young. I can’t serve you even a single beer.”
“Oh c’mon. You can’t just slide me one?”
“Can’t and will not serve to anyone under age.”
“Fine. Well what other things do you have?”
“Well for non-alcoholics I have tap water and bottled water, I have coffee, and I have pop. Which would you like?”
“Pop.” Goes the Weasel.
