Starlet Jermiane Jenas is practically begging Sir Bobby Robson to allow him to give the Magpies' a much needed kick-start to their revival.

Newcastle United's young midfielder Jermaine Jenas has begged Magpies' boss Sir Bobby Robson for more games. Jenas has started just one game this season, despite his talent whilst playing for England last year.

The former Notts. Forest starlet is wanting to help the Magpies' to kick-start their revival, but in order to do that, he needs to get a game!

He said: "Hopefully, I'll figure at some stage on Saturday.

"I haven't played as much as I would have liked this season - but all I can do is keep working hard and wait for my chance to come along.

"I played for the reserves on Monday, because the gaffer and I decided I needed to boost my fitness.

"A lot has been made about the run of games without a win, but the players are just completely focused on doing well again, which we will sooner rather than later."
