Steve Harper: "I told Tim Krul and Fraser Forster in pre-season that I would help them in any way, just as Shay Given helped me.
"I was sad to see Shay go because he was my friend, but 95% of me was delighted because I had finally become No 1 at Newcastle.
"And I want to stay No 1.
"I told the two of them that I was always here for advice, but I wasn't going to give up the shirt easily."
