Kevin Nolan: "Over the last two years I feel I've proved myself here but I don't want it to stop at that.
"I want it to go on over the next three, four or five years. I'd like us to keep Joey. He's a big player and he has said he wants to stay.
"We all want Joey to stay, we want to keep this squad together. We can't afford to lose any other big players.
"The Europa League is the minimum this club should be aiming for.
"We have the potential to do it.
"The most important thing is bringing in the right people, who understand what it takes to play for this club.
"That's what they do at Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United. As soon as new players arrive, they know what is expected of them. That's what we need here."

*Normal price is £9.99
Although "Magpies In Europe" will not be launched OFFICIALLY until next season ... if you want a copy it is available NOW from this website ... and ONLY from this website!
Sports Journalist Richie Everson: "At last a book that the fabulous Newcastle United fans can relate to. It's informative, all the facts and figures are there, plus the 120 match reports from all the fixtures ... but it is the articles by the supporters that amazed me.
"I went to many of those games, and this is the only book I can honestly say 'hits the nail on the head'!
"Yes we know the results and the scorers, but some of the facts in this book had me so wrapped up in it I couldn't put it down.
"Was Benny Arentoft cup-tied when he played in the final? Big Wyn and his battle with John McGrath; McFaul scoring a penalty when the crowd had gone home; the trouble in Palermo; it is all amazing stuff.
"I would honestly give this book 10 out of 10."
