Sir Bobby Robson has vowed to stay at St James' Park until The Magpies's win a trophy. He want to be at Newcastle when they win the league, and until then, he is going to be the one who helps them on their ways.

Sir Bobby: Not going anywhere

Newcastle United boss Sir Bobby Robson will not leave the club until they have won a trophy it had been revealed..
"I'd like to win something but that (the title) is what is driving me on. I'll keep working until we do. I might work until I'm 100 because we might never win it for the next 30 years!"
Robson continued: "I've won leagues abroad but it would be lovely to win the league here one day.
"The cup might be more exciting but the league would be special.
"We're some distance from that at the moment. But the gap between us and Manchester United and Arsenal is bridgeable."
Robson added: "I've already made my mind up that I'll work next season for sure. Retirement is not on my agenda. My health is fantastic, I get up every morning and I feel good and want to go to work.
"I am on the pitch every day, so the job is not beyond me physically or mentally, and as long as I feel that way and the people upstairs are happy with me, I'll carry on.
"The name of the game is success and trying to win things, and it's some time now since this club has won anything."
