Two New Faces Sign For Toon?

Obviously it's PLAYERS we are wanting through the door, as every week there seems to be another 'body' appearing on the coaching staff or board of directors, and still we await the first signing of the summer.

Allegedly, Money is set to join Newcastle United to become the new supremo of Newcastle United's academy, says the Daily Mail.

As for Thompson, I cannot help but wonder who has appointed him ... Kevin Keegan or Dennis Wise?

Keegan let Thompson move on back in the early 1990s because he turned up in KK's office with an agent wanting either first team football or a move.

KK said at the time he was willing to wash his hands of any teenager demanding a place in his team, and that was the end of Thompson.

The former Celtic winger joined Wise's Leeds United last season, and Wise made him skipper.

But when Wise jumped ship at Elland Road, Thompson only featured once for the new boss, then he announced his retirement last month.

Wise said he would find a place for him at Newcastle ... and I'd be interested to know what KK thinks about all.

Perhaps running the youth academy is Wise's job ... we don't know.

Does anybody?
