21-year-old Brian Kerr is expected to return to St James' Park in the New Year although Livingston are keen to extend Kerr's stay. Kerr has admitted that he will be putting his Newcastle United future on hold until December.

Livingston's on loan midfielder Brian Kerr has admitted that his Newcastle career will be taking a back seat.

Brian Kerr joined the SPL club prior to the start of the season and has been impressive ever since. The Scotland international IS ready to discuss the situation at St James' Park with Sir Bobby Robson in a few months, but is currently happy at Livingston.

KERR SAID:

"I kept moaning last year that I always wanted to play on Saturday because you are training from Monday to Friday for nothing at Newcastle.

"Playing every week is a big thing and I've been enjoying every minute of it. Our own team and performances have also been good recently so things have been going well.

"I've not spoken to Bobby yet and I'll leave that until December before I see what happens.

"I'm just concentrating on my football at the moment and see what happens over the next few months. I do want to get back and I want to make an impact."
