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 Fernรกndez and Dwight Gayle have all signed new deals with the club.
The option of extending the contracts of Paul Dummett and Fabian Schรคr 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 weโre looking forward to building momentum as we head towards the big kick-off next month.”

Comment #43Of all the questions answered by Staveley over the last couple of days nobody has asked her why she has decided to come out now, after saying nothing at all for 15 months, at least on tv anyway.
Maybe the question was asked and she didn`t want it her reply aired for the time being, for whatever reason it would be nice to know WHY.

Comment #44So will Bruce try and convert Murphy into the Willock role?
Will Manquillo and Krafth be enough at right back?
How much can they get for Lejuen?
Why does every club statement raise more questions?

Comment #48Bill from earlier,
Colchicine if youโve got gout, is the pain killer to sort it.
Allopurinol is the long term solution so it never comes back.
Used both, only workable solutions, trust me ๐

Comment #50My earlier post about who to support was not well written. All folk should have the right to support their country if they want to (country of origin or country now living in).
I suspect though some English folk do not really support the team/country. No names no pack drill.

Comment #56Seems as if the blog is currently going through phase of folk thinking they should be DJ Dan, with all forms of (sometimes) shit music selections being put forward.
I have myself suggested songs but from the Playing for Change collections (stolen by Lesh) but some of the stuff being touted by budding Disco Dans’ is crap.
Please stop -yeez are shite.

Comment #59Magscar…congratulations on your anniversary. It’s astonishing how the years fly by isn’t it. It’s our 50th at the end of July, yet it just seems like 5 minutes since we were out at the local disco in the 60’s. 50 great years I’m very happy to add.
As an addendum, I live just around the corner from Simon and Jail’s former abode and Bob lives just a bit away, right near my doctor’s. All sand dancers and proud.

No never went you mean the church hall at bottom of Central Avenue?
More of a band gazing shy nerd when at a live gig back in the day-actually still am!
Hate it when bands or solo acts are on and everyone talks over it
Used to sometimes go to Catholic Club in Shields before i moved away and nearly got barred for daring to talk during Bingo – wish best of order was kept at other times ๐
Did once go to Lynn Club on a night when they held ballroom danciing classes -big mistake never come across so many people with left feet – i was only one in step!!
I think I’m good at Dad dancing and now even Grandad dancing even though I say so myself grandkids laugh anyway
