The news comes after the tribunal of bullying on Newcastle youth players. Although Peter Beardley and co-coach Kenny Wharton were cleared, the pair have been striped of thier coaching jobs.

Newcastle United staff have decided to strip club legend Peter Beardsley and co-coach Kenny Wharton of their Newcastle Youth Academy coaching roles.

A Premier League tribunal of bullying cleared the pair of verbally abusing Newcastle youth players last week, but it doesn't sound like the club are convinced.

Beardsley and Wharton have been removed from their posts. However, they have offered alternative jobs at the club.
