SHEPHERD WANTS SHEARER TO STAY

Shearer needs just 29 goals to equal Jackie Milburn's record, which has stood for almost 50 years.

The Magpies' captain did say that he is definately retiring at the end of next season, no matter what, but Freddy said: "It's possible that Alan will break the record before his planned retirement at the end of next season.

"In fact, the way he is going at the moment he will almost certainly break Jackie's record.

"But, if not, I would want him to stay on until he does break it."
