Newcastle play a friendly at Hartlepool next Tuesday.
However, ex-Sunderland striker Marcus Stewart insists he is not looking to leave Yeovil Town for Hartlepool United. Reports have claimed that Hartlepool are hoping to entice the striker back to the North East.
One Mackem Will ... One Mackem Won't ....
But Stewart, who joined Yeovil permanently in January, admits he is happy to stay put.
Stewart: "It is flattering that people still think you can do a job, but I expect to stay at Yeovil.
"I am happy and I have got another year left on my deal.
"I will probably sit down with the chairman and the manager at Christmas time, and see what I want to do if I steer clear of injuries. I might want to play on or finish at the end of the season."
