Newcastle have belatedly confirmed that five Magpies have signed new contracts. Paul Dummett and Fabian Schar have had one-year extensions triggered while Jacob Murphy, Federico Fernandez, and Dwight Gayle have agreed on new deals.
?? #NUFC are pleased to confirm that Jacob Murphy, Federico Fernández and Dwight Gayle have all signed new deals with the club.
The option of extending the contracts of Paul Dummett and Fabian Schär into the 2021/22 season have also been exercised.

On Tuesday, Newcastle released images of Dummett, Murphy, and Gayle during their first day back at training. There were no photos of Federico Fernandez or Fabian Schar, who is expected to return later this month after playing for Switzerland in the European Championships.
It’s good news to see that Fernandez is back at the training ground and has agreed on a new deal. Unfortunately, Newcastle have not revealed any details of any of the new contracts for Gayle, Murphy, or Fernandez so we don’t know how long they have been tied down for.
Steve Bruce will be thrilled that these deals have been completed. He’s pushed for new deals for the bulk of players on expiring contracts. Here is what Bruce said about getting these five Magpies tied down:
“I’m delighted to extend the players’ contracts.
“They all have a thorough understanding of this club and what it takes to play here, and they have all made excellent contributions over recent years.
“The hard work preparing for the new season has already begun and we’re looking forward to building momentum as we head towards the big kick-off next month.”

Comment #1I presume that means we haven’t given Carroll a new contract ?

Place your cross in the appropriate gap.

If it’s not raining Mrs M might have time to paint the outside of the house before preparing dinner and the match nibbles.
You’re a hard man.
Take care.

Comment #19Tom
just popped in ( fortunately allowed as I’m not on the oot list) and as you say a small world but not too unexpected that there are some “ccnnections”given that many do come from a rlatively small catchment area originally
A lot of us from Shields not the South lot though – although I recall Bob, Simon and Jail from the top of my head are from or live that way
I have often wondered if we give a short history of ourselves ala socal media ( I know God forbid!) we would be surprised at various connections we have woth other posters
From an exchange with Carltoon some weeks/months back i learnd she went to same shool as one of my sisters and my brother, lives near where i grew up and goes to the church I iused to be an altar boy in.
Probably loads of other connections.with her and no doubt others including Jib from some of his posts
Anonymity is probaly best but not to be abused

Comment #22A man loses his hat and decides the easiest way to get another one is to steal it.
He goes to the church cloakroom to get a hat. A sermon about the Ten Commandments was going on. The man pauses to listen and then changes his mind. On nearing the exit, he runs into the pastor.
He says, “I came here with sin in my heart. I must say, you saved me from crime.”
The pastor replies, “That’s nice to hear. What sin were you about to commit?”
The man replies, “I came here to steal a hat, but your sermon made me change my mind.”
The priest says, “May I know what part of my sermon made you see the error of your ways?”
The man replies, “When you reached the ‘Thou shalt not commit adultery’ part, I suddenly remembered where I left my hat.”

Comment #35Carltoon
All a joke of course
She has had bouts of poor health ( several ups and downs) for more than 10 years and I’ve been willing house husband/ carer during that time – as she would be for me
i know im not alone in that respect
It’s actualy our 48th wedding anniversary today and due to suddeness of self isolation we have been caught on hop
We were actual taliking at weekend of (bravely for us} booking pub in village ( has very good reputation) for a decent meal at lunchtime and watch match with some family later
It’s not far for her to walk these days so wouldn’t need lift and i wouldn’t have had to drive
Normally we could have asked family to bring us in something special if not going out as we did last year as she was still shielding but of course due to their different contacts with my daughter who tested psotve at weekend they are all self isolating as well
I can rustle up something from what we have in and are just pleased we are still here to celebrate with each other ( many aren’t!)
Neither of us are needy and as long as we have family we can make do – reckon we might be out of this lot by our 50th ainniversary – won’t we? – please
Anyway we will both watch England tonight
