Souness, 96, is said to be "distraught" at the thought of having to move back North of the Border, where he will have to eat Haggis and drink Buckfast in the Park, rather than the £400k a week he is robbing his current club for.

The problems just keep mounting for Souness. With 6 players having left St James Park since the close of the season (at least 2 with Broken Noses dished out by Bowyer!!) the First Team Dressing Room is looking bare..... and with the "Shearer Alterations" (where the cost of widening all the doors throughout the stadium so he can get his inflated ego around the stands is now running at £660 million) hurting deep into Souness' Transfer Plans, he is looking at spending fortunes on Bit-Part Players from other clubs (Parker, Emre etc etc) to finally help take them down.

A source at the club was today quoted as saying "Yep, He's a Shite Manager!!!"

lol... I know!

Souness will always be Newcastle's problem. Of course I'd love him to prove me wrong, but I just don't see it happening!

Anyone been reading Robert's comments? lol...
