DYER DOUBTFUL FOR SPURS CLASH

The England ace limped off late during the Magpies' 4-1 Uefa Cup win over Real Mallorca at St James' Park on Thursday and manager Sir Bobby Robson fears that he will be unable to play at White Hart Lane at the weekend.
"We can only see how Kieron feels during the next 48 hours," said Robson.
"It looks like the same problem he had only just recovered from."
Dyer suffered from a hamstring injury during Newcastle's 1-1 draw back at the end of February at Portsmouth, and his absence at Spurs will be a blow to Robson.
Newcastle's options in midfield have however been boosted by Darren Ambrose, and the availability of Lee Bowyer - who is still banned from European competition.
